The essential seed of the Nee/Lee movement was an extreme bias against established Christianity. This bias became the movement's undoing because they became unable to accept needed criticism.

It boils down to pride, the lack of humility to accept correction no matter what the source. Anyone who has been around the block knows that the Lord often teaches us through those we would consider unworthy of doing so. This is one way he keeps us humble and honest--grounded so to speak.

There is little evidence of this spirit in the Recovery and none in Lee. The rejection of all feedback from Christians outside the movement was the equivalent of the movement signing its death warrant. God resists the proud but gives grace to the humble. No one is exempt.
