I don't think it is a sin in general to pledge. It's the contents of the pledge that matters.
What makes this sinful is it is a pledge of allegiance to Witness Lee. It's essentially a declaration of oneness around him rather than Christ.
Also, it must be understood that this pledge was signed in conjunction with a purging of those who weren't willing to rally around Lee. So it was a two-pronged deal. One was the over-the-top dedication to Lee. The other was intolerance toward those who weren't on board. There was a Nazi feel to it.
