It's okay for WL/BB's to take things out of context, but not the other way around (and that's not to say any of us do that). When I read something that WL said, I take it at face value. I critique all his ministry by the same standard.
Perhaps that is why I became so disillusioned with Lee. I tried to follow everything he said. Of course, Lee did often contradict himself, so how does one follow Lee absolutely? You really can't do that. That is the reason the BB's can say people take Lee out of context. At one point in time, he said something, another point in time, he said something else, and the BB's get to decide which of his statements is valid.
