How many of these men taught that to be an overcomer, and thus avoid said punishment/discipline in the age to come, one must be a devout follower of a certain man's ministry, and indeed be a devout member of a certain sect which was initiated by and lead solely by the very same man? I could be mistaken, but I doubt you will find such a thought or concept, much less a clearly defined doctrine or teaching, such as we find in Witness Lee.

I definitely agree that the whole matter has been muddied by Recovery claims that
only those in the Recovery could possibly be the rewarded overcomers. Decades ago I believed this wholeheartedly, but there is no way one can look at the sobering facts of Recovery history and still be convinced that God has special perks for these crooked folks.
Yet . . . . . Lee took the teachings of Robert Govett, D.M.Panton, G.H.Pember, G.H.Lang, and others and passed them on to us. I for one would like to know the truth.
