How convenient! Not even Lee plays by his own rules. And his ministry ruled over the local churches.
Why can't other groups play by Lee's rules?
Did you ever consider that perhaps it was all this hypocrisy (think about the leaven of the Pharisees) that caused some of us to leave?

A ministry can take a name because it's a ministry. "ministry of Paul", etc. The ministry belongs to the man of that ministry.
Church cannot take a name because it's a church, it belongs to God. It's His wife.
The difference between ministry and church is also covered in Nee's books.
