Where, for example, is the idea of discipline commensurate with the offense, given in Luke 12:47 and 48? Instead we got presented a vague and arbitrary line (the “overcomer”) with abundant blessings on one side and 1,000 years of weeping and gnashing of teeth on the other. It's crude, and I think it’s an insult to the scriptures. It’s not a high peak, it’s barely a foothill.
I think it's an insult to God and his redemption ... may even be blasphemy ...

I wonder that, sense Jesse-Penn Lewis believed born again Christians can be demon possessed, if the root of Lee's "1,000 years of weeping and gnashing of teeth" came from that crazy Jezebel.
