I think brother Lee was a servant of God who made some big mistakes especially later. I think his 2 biggest errors were:

1. Saying that parts of the Bible were not God's word. This started with Psalms early on. In his later ministry it went to Proverbs, Job, James and even Peter and Jeremiah.

2. In 1984 he told the church, whoever doesn't agree with "the new way" should leave like gentleman. This was contrary to everything the local churches had stood for. After 1988 when most leaders with their own scriptural-based views were expelled, we had no more English-speaking fruit in the U.S.

Aron, I think your enjoyment of the Psalms if very good. However, it seems to me that you try to make every exhortation to righteousness as applying to Christ and not to us. This is not how Peter quoted Psalm 34, nor how Paul quoted Ps 4 in Ephesians. The exhortations to live righteously are mainly to us. They weren't just fulfilled in Christ. They are also to be fulfilled in us by living in union with Christ, and we can fulfill them because we are born of God.

This brings up a shortcoming of brother Lee's ministry: there was near nothing on the working together of faith and works. This should not have been a big problem except that later his ministry was supposed to be all-inclusive. Brothers who had this important portion had been expelled. You didn't need and shouldn't waste your time with any other ministry. This brought a stilted understanding of the Chrisitian life.
