Yes, perhaps. And perhaps Witness Lee looked at scripture, and said, "Hmm . . . fallen . . revelatory. . . hmm?" and flipped a coin. It certainly seems arbitrary. Disjointed.
Perhaps when Witness Lee said that David was writing according to fallen human concepts, it was rather the expositor Lee and not the psalmist, who entertained them. Yes, I know, we're all fallen. Yes, sometimes I write according to my concepts (often?). But I'm not publishing my fallen human concepts as "spiritual truths" and selling them as the Recovery Version Bible with footnotes &c.
Talk about 'humble yourself'! Witness Lee should have humbled himself. Yet we got these confident "this equals that" statements, even when they clearly didn't line up with each other. How brain-dead did the flock have to be to sit through these meetings?
