Default Re: "God in life and nature but not in the Godhead"

Titus 1:16 They profess that they know God; but in works they deny him, being abominable, and disobedient, and to every good work reprobate.

Witness Lee professed to know God, but in works he and his movement denied the Christ who bought them. I met with the FTTA trainees and I heard the trainer tell us, "Don't waste your time" with those who cannot repay you in this age. Instead, we were told, "Build up the Body by recruiting good material."

The only acceptable "good work" in the Local Church was to promote the ministry of Witness Lee. That was building the Body, so-called. Any other kind of work was rejected.

So if you step back and look at it, it is just words turning back upon words. Words being merchandized, repeated, held up on the air and placed on coffee mugs. Zero good works, or pretty close to zero. If you were led to good works, you did it quietly, on the side, so the program zealots didn't take notice.
