I think that this little bit is enough.

The two trees can only be viewed as metaphorical relative to our present life. We have a choice to make . . . do we choose Christ and life or reject Him and choose the consequences. It is not about whether I am currently turning to my spirit, or calling on the Lord. It is figurative about how I choose to order my life. Do I do it on my own according to my ways or according to God's ways, starting with accepting Christ as the one who leads the way.

The extreme view brought to us by Lee is not correct, along with so many other things he taught. When you keep taking the unusual positions that are still not accepted by the bulk of Christianity, you continue to follow the one who brought all the problems and errors that you do see. The Bible really doesn't support eating the chicken and discarding the feathers and bones. It says to reject the whole of a false teacher. Seek a different source. Consider that the things they are teaching you may not be as spiritual as you think.
