Thanks for the response Mephibosheth. The idea that the spirit is an organ is, I believe, wrong. That idea makes the spirit an object. As such it is peripheral to you as the experiencing subject. That is a mistaken notion of spiritually deadly consequences as I can testify because of my experience in Witness Lee's cult. Remember the diagram of the three circles? That symbol got it right because it shows spirit in the center. The spirit is the true you. Accept no substitute.
