Re: Wait, It's A Cult?
My friend I'm not trying to warn the nation, just whoever wanders by here. Also, I'm not worried about the EOC or the Roman Catholic Church. That's beyond the preview of our little forum. We have enough to worry about with the Local Church of Witness Lee, wouldn't you agree?
So "becoming God in life and nature" doesn't tip the scale for you? How about "we are baby gods"....does that do the trick? How about Witness Lee being the "forth of the Trinity"? Does that sound like danger to you?
It's all a matter of degree my old buddy. Nobody is calling the Local Church of Witness Lee some evil, mind controlling, Jim Jones kool aid cult. But neither are some innocuous, just-a-little-off-kilter evangelical, orthodox sect of Christianity. I think this fact is vividly portrayed throughout the 1,000+ threads on our forum.
Getting back to the original post of the thread starter, is there any doubt that the Local Church of Witness Lee matches up with most of these points? The only ones that don't fit are the "works prove faith" and "salvation is a big unknown", the rest of them are spot on. I think leastofthese deserves a little more respect and consideration than our responses have been on this thread up till now. We can do better! Let's do this thing!
