I thought we were discussing Witness Lee as a Bible teacher and like most teachers of any subject he taught from an existing body of content. And as with most teachers what may have been unique and new was
how he said it and expressed it not
what he said or expressed.
BTW speaking for myself I have never tried to strip Witness Lee of what is legitimately his. I acknowledge he was a Bible teacher. Some of his teachings I agree with and others I don't.
