Witness Lee, like Watchman Nee, had a thing for 'spiritual giants'. I don't know where they got this concept. Not from Jesus, nor Paul. The only biblical precedent that I'm aware of is the giants that came out from the abominable union between the sons of God and the daughters of men.

Why would this be referenced in a positive way by Nee and Lee? I have no idea. Really. What was the genesis (pun intended) of this idea?

Is there any other scriptural basis for this idea? And didn't they see the connection to Genesis 6, and Numbers 13? I find the idea of 'giants' to be abhorrent. Really. Am I over-reacting, here?

And the Final Giant. . . they didn't even dare print that one. But I heard them talk about it, when Lee passed. The age had turned, they said. . . did anyone else hear this kind of talk, that the age of spiritual giants was over? What is the source of such talk?
