Untohim,
Witness Lee has delivered more messages on salvation by faith through the blood of Jesus Christ than have been posted in this forum all posters combined you included.
If you don't agree with the teachings of Witness Lee or Watchman Nee, those that are their "particular teachings" such as the ground of the church then no one is insisting that you do and no one is even asking you to believe. It is fair and healthy to assess those teachings in light of the Bible and on their own merits.
However, if anyone believes they are qualified to judge WL righteously based on his shortcomings and failures then they should at least extend us the courtesy to disclose their own shortcomings and failures publicly so we can decide whether they are qualified to judge.
That is the thing that I find the most disconcerting: That brothers and sisters will without hesitation presume to sit on the judgment seat of Christ and usurp His headship and act as if they themselves are qualified to do so because they are without sin or failure.
