I'm glad to see that Evangelical (Drake too?) are using other bible helps, such as Gill, when studying these theological matters. But, please, don't try to use the theological musings of legitimate scholars to bolster the teachings of Witness Lee. Even Lee himself would rarely reference the works of others (although he occasionally plagiarized them without giving credit), and he certainly gave little to no credit to anyone but himself for his "high peak truths".

But to your point I have removed all the extra-biblical terms in your post above. Would that be clearer now?
UntoHim's post without the extra-biblical terms:

Actually, I kind of like better,,,, much more succinct (I will have to see if succinct is in the bible... next time).
