Doesn't everyone see how Nee and Lee's deputy authority teaching puts people in an impossible position?

Even in this discussion some are tending to agree with Nee and Lee because they are afraid not to. Because they are afraid of disagreeing with the deputy authority.

Don't you see how this compromises people, and the truth? Don't you see how it hinders people from following their consciences and what they feel God is telling them to do?

It is a horrible and insidious teaching. Unfortunately, when you buy into it you cannot even give such an idea consideration, because the deputy authority has spoken, and you have no choice but to agree with him.

I believe in authority, but not that kind of authority. No way. That is the way of the blind leading the blind. God cannot work with that kind of teaching. God cannot correct a group that follows it. Their path is set by the deputy authority and they cannot waver from it. Even God cannot stop them.

Of course, those who believe it cannot begin to consider such an idea, because, well, you get the point....
