Sorry for the confusion, Drake. I’m trying to respect LSM copyright by not copying. Do you not see which books, chapters, sections, are cited? Read them in their context.

My point is not that a singular sentence or phrase tells you “I am the Minister of the Age”. Like Watchman Née before him, Witness Lee never said those words directly. He said it over and over in different ways indirectly by: citing examples of Noah, David, Paul, Luther, Darby, Nee while talking about “the ministry of the age”, then immediately talking about how in his ministry he followed Nee who was a minister of the age; by giving examples of brothers who didn’t follow him and issuing dire warnings not to do that; by saying “the army needs a commander in chief”, and other similar things, while also saying he wasn’t ordering anyone to do anything.

How else were we to interpret these things, besides “Witness Lee is the Minister of the Age”? I certainly thought that long before the “Blended Brothers” made it official, and saints in my locality were referring to Witness Lee as “The Apostle” by the early 1980’s. Thankfully the Lord delivered me from such offensive terms to the Lord, and His unique headship of the body of Christ. He is the real Noah, David, “the Apostle”, “the Commander in Chief”.
