I never heard anything about "rebuking him to his face," but that's what I did.
I remember walking into the meeting hall on 6th street (a former Baptist church) and being met by a group of brothers asking with excitement, "have you heard of The Flow of Oneness?" The flow of oneness was that the river of life flows from the throne to the apostle on the earth. These brothers were excited because it meant that Lee was the apostle, as was told in the flow of oneness flow.
And I rebuked them to their face. I said, "Yes I've heard of it, and if you believe it, you don't want to talk to me." They went back on their heels.
This was probably around 1980, or there about, maybe early 79.
Word went immediately to Mel Porter that I said this. Things went hard for me after that, as I caught Lee/Mel-bots one Sunday morning in a back room, the tape room, praying against me by name, as I walked up the stairs to pray with the elders.
I also pretty much got in Mel's face, as when I prayed with the elders, I prayed against the flow of oneness.
So rebuking in their face didn't go well for me. Maybe I should have called Witness Lee to have HIM rebuke Mel to his face.
But I doubt Lee would have done that, as Mel brought the flow of oneness from an elders meeting, as if coming from Anaheim ... and Mel was a dyed-in-the-wool Lee-bot.
