I agree that I never had the concept that everyone was possessed.

My point and I think Nigel's as well, is that Witness Lee chooses the most provocative statements possible, statements that can be misinterpreted. The potential for misinterpretation is the reason that the apostles and others do not use this language, and it is also the reason that some take issue with Witness Lee's use. But there is no thought that "hey, let's change this lest it cause someone to stumble". Rather there is a two faced denial. This proves that those in the lead in the LRC understand how this language is dangerous, prone for misinterpretation, and borderline heresy. Yet they don't come out and change it, or apologize for it. His teaching is not clearly heretical, rather it is clearly unconcerned for the damage that it could do.
