Curses don’t just “go away”….. do they? It’s not too much to think that the sins of Nee were visited on Lee. Lee apparently idolized Nee, then demanded that we idolize him. Idolatry is a great sin. “God commands us not to serve other gods because there are no other gods
except the ones we make ourselves.”

Only the Lord truly knows, but if I were to guess, Witness Lee’s greatest failing even above what has been discussed here may have been elevating himself and his teachings to a position of idolization, drawing attention away from Christ onto himself.

Even from your own number men will arise and distort the truth in order to draw away disciples after them.
Your verses in Acts are spot on.
