I googled "Witness Lee annul function body members" and found nearly identical quotes from "The Intrinsic View of the Body of Christ", and from "The Lord's New Way and His Ministry Today", and from "The Mystery of the Universe and the Meaning of Human Life", and from "The Basic Principles for the Practice of the God-ordained Way", and from "The World Situation and the Direction of the Lord's Move", all books from circa 1989-91. There were several more, like HWFMR and "Conclusion of the New Testament", but probably those were recycled.

What's so striking is that you get the same phraseology, repeated ad nauseum, and you wonder how many people had to sit through meeting after meeting, hearing the essentially the same word from the same minister, over and over again. Everytime pretending that it's fresh bread from heaven.

It's too ironic that this particular speaking is about how "Christianity annuls the function of the members of the Body", when you have such a blatant display of that very annulment happening right in front of you.
