Default Re: Pledge of Allegiance to Witness Lee

These snippets jumped out at me. I don't think I need to say much about them.
Quote:
. . . carry out this new move of the Lord . . .

. . . agree to practice the recovery one in: teaching, practice, thinking, speaking, essence, appearance, and expression . . .

. . . repudiate 1) all differences among the churches, 2) all indifference toward the ministry office, and the other churches . . .

. . . We agree that the church in our place be identical with all the local churches throughout the earth . . .

. . . we also agree to follow your leading as the one who has brought us God’s New Testament economy and has led us into its practice . . . this leading is indispensable to our oneness and . . . the one trumpet in the Lord’s ministry and the one wise master builder among us.

. . . function[ing] without any idea to depend on any giant speakers . . .

. . . we agree that the success of this new move is our responsibility . . .
But this last one is quite the definition of misaiming. If it is of God, we are not responsible for it. We are called to participate with God in whatever he is doing, but its success is entirely of God, not of any man, no matter how high they think is their commitment or calling.
