The "ground of the church" idea opened the door for other bad ideas, which followed hard upon. I am thinking of "deputy authority", "the Jerusalem principle", "handing over", "line up with the one in front of you", and so forth.
And errors such as "deputy authority" allowed mediocre theologians like Lee to bludgeon us incessantly with their half-baked ideas.
So our christian experience got reduced to "Thank you Mr Apostle of the Age. May I have another?" When I watched Lee berate a shamefaced Titus Chu (and others) in public for not being up to speed on "the new way", that was exactly what I saw. If you think that is "enjoyment", I've got a slightly used bridge to sell you. Cheap.
