People like Paul Hon, Andrew Yu, Ray Graver et al are now the ones running the show. They early on grasped where the bread was being buttered. It wasn't the ground of oneness, nor the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. It was the ministry of Witness Lee. And those who couldn't stand the growing stench got out. It is man-glorifying culture, pure and simple.

Of course the Asians aren't exclusive to pyramid-building schemes. But this one has the hallmarks of Asian culture, if you look closely. Statements that have nothing to do with the Bible reveal its cultural imperatives. "The age of the spiritual giants is over" is an example. The various Great Leap Forward-style pronouncements from the HQ. The total lack of accountability or reciprocity. The blatant disregard for the poor.... even the RCC at least pays lip service to helping those in need.
