I think that is profound. The truth could never change. I appreciate Calvin's ability to distill the truth into understandable doctrine. But, as a human man I need much more than doctrine. I need an intimate Savior who understands my human dilemma of lugging around a being put to death flesh, I need a great high priest. Somehow the LC helped me revive these subjective experiences, but I think the Spirit is able to use many things to revive our love. For me it was many years in the LC, maybe for others it will be from some other venue. There is nothing unique about Witness Lee's recovery movement, but there are millions of things unique about the Spirit's capacity to draw men to Jesus. Those wanting to be unique are following their master the lord of the flies.
