Finally, what about time and space?

When Witness Lee makes "locality" a key criteria in defining a church he limits it by time and space and actually makes it clear that a church is limited and defined by time and space.

But today our meetings do not need to be limited by locality. We can meet and fellowship with people all over the world through the phone, internet, video conference, etc.

Also, we don't need to be limited by time. These forums are an example of how a meeting and fellowship can take place irrespective of time.

So then is there anything in the NT that says a church must be limited by time and space?

Was Witness Lee teaching from his poor human concept or was it actually based on the apostle's fellowship?
