What Lee taught is that a local church comes about by taking a certain standing, as to suggest that local gatherings might not be part of a "local church" even if they are non-denominational.

On standing:
“Please remember this one thing: The church must stand on the ground of locality. For many years we have been standing on this ground, rejecting all that is not in keeping with this ground, rejecting all other labels. Any group which does not take the locality as its ground is not the church. “ Watchman Nee, Further Talks on the Church Life
