I would like to ask Nigel why he posted this article. This is not a challenge, but an honest inquiry. I really like to know what is in the mind of a writer when he composes his piece. My quest over the years has caused me to see through many a document. I think that I was the first to post that the quarantine of Titus Chu was merely a power struggle between two competing factions in the Recovery. Nothing I have ever read has ever disputed that proposition. As in the days of the Brethren, so with us. To understand motivations is important to me.
So my question is simple. What bothered Nigel to the point that he would invest the time to write this obviously time-consuming piece about a "lonely God?" How was this leaven to me, a typical LC'er?

As usual Ohio, your posts usually get me to A. either thinking or B. stirred up to issue in a post of my own.
Pondering what led brother Nigel to write this article I ask as a typical LCer who was Witness Lee to you? Was Witness Lee the modern day apostle Paul whose words was equal to scripture? Or was Witness Lee a gifted minister; just another one of God's servants?
As I read brother Nigel's article it seemed to come from the angle that Lee's spoken ministry was received as being on par with scripture. This coincides to Nigel's previous article which indicates Lee's spoken ministry was never checked against what the Bible says.
