Probably true. Now I wonder if Hank Hannegraaff would have been able to muster up enough hypocrisy to have kowtowed and sniveled enough before the One Minister with the One Ministry for the Age enough to get a complement out of Witness Lee.

Many of us may recall when the original Bible Answer Man, Dr. Walter Martin, came to Lee's home (there on Ball road near the hall) to discuss CRI's published material about the teachings and practices of the Local Church. Apparently the meeting was recorded, and Witness Lee agreed to give Martin a copy of the recording. Lee (of course) reneged on the agreement and refused to give a copy to Dr. Martin. He gave some kind of lame excuse...like Martin was rude to him or some other such nonsense. I suspect the real reason was that Lee didn't have any good answers for Dr. Martin's reasonable theological concerns about Lee's teachings, and Lee didn't want that kind of information getting out to LC members, or God forbid, the general public.
