Your quote here did not sound very "laudatory" to me.

The truth is that Watchman Nee, for all his genius, for all his altruistic intentions, was really no different than any of the long line of well-intentioned men who decided that they were qualified to bring their followers back to true, 1st century New Testament Christianity. Yet, even with the great advantage of attempting this in the virtually unspoiled land of early 20th century China, Nee and his followers came short, falling victim to the same foibles as others – fleshly strivings and jealousies, divisions, competition between leaders, etc. Neither the “doctrine of dirt” nor the practice of proper, biblical “local administration” could save them.
