Kaung is obviously a follower of Nee. Is that a problem? Not necessarily. I would say the same goes for Lee, following Nee was not necessarily a problem in and of itself. It became a problem for Lee, however, because he elevated Nee to a whole new level. Lee called Nee a “Seer of the Divine Revelation in the Present Age”. I also suspect that Lee elevated Nee in order to gain legitimacy for his own ministry. Nee was thus established as the initial MOTA who was to be succeeded by none other than Lee.
I’m not aware of any attempt that Kaung has made to elevate Nee to that same level. Kaung’s publishing house is the main publisher of Nee books besides LSM, so it can be said that Kaung holds Nee in high esteem. Perhaps what he is most guilty of is following Nee too closely. I’m sure Nee’s ministry has been helpful to many, but there are also a number of issues in his ministry worthy of critique.
