The first scripture they quote is Amos:3:7. " When the Lord God decides to do something, he will first tell his servants, the prophets."
They use that scripture and 'the bible' to get you to read everything Joseph Smith wrote in the book of Mormon etc....
The LC uses the RcV so you can read Lee's works and to a lesser extent Nee's works. They use Watchman Nee's works to reel people in as well because a lot of Nee's books are sold in local bookstores from B&N to your local Christian bookstore. But you won't find the RcV or Lee's books other than in the LSM prison just like you won't find the Mormon's KJ bible or book of Mormon, plus outside their venue.
The LSM would NOT like it if an LCr would read the bible and Nee's works but leave out the RcV & Lee's works.

Didn't Witness Lee support the idea of door-knocking my pointing out that it works for the Jehovah's Witnesses (back in the 80's, I think)?
So it really wouldn't be surprising if they would borrow techniques from Mormon recruitment, as well.
