What I tried to show earlier is that Cassidy, one who was standing up for the Living Stream Ministry of Witness Lee, would have a problem even beginning a journey of separation. Why? If the Bible is in conflict with what Mr. Lee taught, Cassidy showed that he was unable to comprehend what the Bible actually states. He subconsciously read the Bible through the filter of Mr. Lee and didn’t even realize it.

This reminds me of one of the more "serious" complaints about TC during the recent quarantines. LSM'ers brought forth charges at Whistler that TC's methods of training the saints were in violation of accepted Recovery practices. LSM has long stated that we should
not do in-depth studies of scripture, using aids such as word-studies or lexicons,
until we are firstly saturated with "the ministry." TC, however, mostly wanted the saints to know the Bible first.
Obviously
Cassidy was trained under the LSM school of thought which filters scripture through the teachings of WL.
