As I read this footnote (see link above), nowhere does it say that Christ became the Holy Spirit. It actually says that "Christ became a life-giving Spirit with a spiritual body" (emphasis mine). [Please note the difference between "the" and "a." THE (one and only) Holy Spirit vs. A life-giving Spirit]
The footnote says "Christ became a life-giving Spirit with a spiritual body" (emphasis mine).
OBW claims that in the "Lee/LSM/LRC lexicon," " 'The Life-Giving Spirit' is a code word for this singular thing that is the Holy Spirit." As can be clearly seen from reading the linked footnote, the "Lee/LSM/LRC lexicon" does not say anything of the sort.
In conclusion, I do not think OBW misrepresented the verse. I think he/she misrepresented what Lee said about the verse. |
It seems as though Faith is ignoring the ministry of Witness Lee in order to defend it. As soon as WL told us, “The last Adam, Jesus Christ, became a life-giving Spirit”, he then asked us, “Are there two life-giving Spirits?” Next, he showed us the verse “Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty”, and he said that it told us that THE Lord is THE Spirit.
One would have to be pretty obtuse not to miss this. Lee hammered us with it, repeatedly.
