CODSWALLOP!
According to Lee and Company there is no right or wrong, and there is no good or bad; there's just in the spirit or out of the spirit.
Listen to yourself...
"if we love our family without Christ's love... it is vain..." Can you show me anywhere in the bible where Christ or His Apostles state loving your family without Christ's love is vain? When you write "vain" do you mean of no use to the little children who are the recipients of this "vain" love, or the dear wife who finds strength to continue being a mother from the "vain" love of her husband.
I don't give a rodent's posterior (Hope this passes the "sister-censor"!) what Witness Lee means, about anything! It is a release from prison to be "free from Lee". I dropped off the "key Lee and got myself free", you can do the same and become a normal human being who loves Christ as well as people. Sorry for blowing a gasket here, but the implications of what you believe are frightening to me.

The problem is all inside your head she said to me
The answer is easy if you take it logically
I'd like to help you in your struggle to be free
There must be fifty ways to leave your lover
She said it's really not my habit to intrude
Furthermore, I hope my meaning won't be lost or misconstrued
But I'll repeat myself at the risk of being crude
There must be fifty ways to leave your lover
Fifty ways to leave your lover
You just slip out the back, Jack
Make a new plan, Stan
You don't need to be coy, Roy
Just get yourself free
Hop on the bus, Gus
You don't need to discuss much
Just drop off the key, Lee
And get yourself free
She said it grieves me so to see you in such pain
I wish there was something I could do to make you smile again
I said I appreciate that and would you please explain
About the fifty ways
She said why don't we both just sleep on it tonight
And I believe in the morning you'll begin to see the light
And then she kissed me and I realized she probably was right
There must be fifty ways to leave your lover
Fifty ways to leave your lover
You just slip out the back, Jack
Make a new plan, Stan
You don't need to be coy, Roy
Just get yourself free
Hop on the bus, Gus
You don't need to discuss much
Just drop off the key, Lee
And get yourself free
