I grew up learning this lineage, roughly speaking, as follows --
Martin Luther
Count Zinzendorf
Father Fenelon
Madame Guyon
John Nelson Darby
Watchman Nee
Witness Lee
Nee and Lee, of course, were the heirs to the line of the Recovery. What I remember from childhood was laid out by Watchman Nee as far back as 1934 at a conference in Shanghai -- remember this booklet? --
What are We?
(Of course, Watchman Nee and Witness Lee had not yet been added to the lineage by 1934.)
