Thanks for your thoughts, EV.
I give credit to Lee for promoting the first part of what you said. That's certainly where I learned it. But, this is a matter of fairly straight forward truth from the Bible that doesn't take "rocket science" to get. And, even Lee admitted to learning it from "inner life" Christians who preceded him: Jesse Penn-Lewis, Andrew Murray, Mary E. McDonough, Nee, and a number of others championed this before and during Lee's ministry (like Austin Sparks and Steven Kaung).

I don't defend the Catholic Church or denominations. This thread is about Lee and the churches who follow him, and whether or not their teaching and practice regarding interpretting "Jerusalem" to themselves is correct or not. I'm interested in others' thoughts on this, now that we have yours EV.
