Ah, but this is EXACTLY what Witness Lee and his followers have practiced since setting foot in America (and in Taiwan I suspect). As far as I am aware, Lee propagated "this whole phony notion" since day one...all I was asking for is some tangible evidence to the contrary. You did not provide any such evidence. I was looking for an example of an EXISTING Christian group, with an EXISTING group of leaders/elders who were already following and practicing the teachings of an EXISTING apostle, that some Local Churchers joined themselves to, and then were in turn recognized as a true Local Church by Witness Lee and his followers.

What I am asking is not that complicated. I am not trying to be coy here in any way shape or form. Either this happened (which would show that Lee practiced what he preached) or it did not happen. There is not a lot of gray area here.
