Let me relay one "shocking development" I came across in ~2003. I was reading Nee's classic The Normal Christian Church Life with a few brothers. I could not believe my eyes! Page by page we were comparing Nee's early teachings with the practices of Witness Lee and now the Blended Brothers. Oh what a shocker! Nothing matched! Not even by a mile.

Could you believe that most Baptist denominations were closer to Nee's teachings than LSM was? And all along we had thought that Nee's book was a guide of sorts to LSM and the LC's.

Dear brother Evangelical, since you so value Watchman Nee's teachings and the Recovery, please go back and do the same. If you like, I could give you a guided tour, that is if I can retrieve my book, which I gave to an old friend.
That doesn't mean that what they started was not of the Lord and not genuine. Nor does it mean that what continues today in various localities is not genuine.

Luther wrote some pretty vile things against the Jews in his later life but no one is rejecting Sola Fide because of it. The Reformation was of the Lord and genuine.

If you do not believe that the LR was/is of the Lord, then please tell us which denominations or organizations are?
