Here is truth: God raised Jesus from the dead on the third day. It's clearly and repeatedly presented in scripture by multiple witnesses. Remember, many questions that the disciples asked Jesus, were met with, "What is that to you? Follow me". Answers were not given.
Asking me to replace Lee's speculative imagery with my own? Nah, I'll stick to the revealed scriptural truth.
StG asked, "Where in scripture do we see 'defeated believers' going into outer darkness for 1,000 years?" No answer has been given.
Again, "Do not be many teachers" - in pointing out the lacks, which are many, of your supposed oracle, doesn't mean that we are angling for his 'position'; you know, "seer of the divine revelation" &c. . . rather that we are rejecting his claims as presenting a priori objective truth. Unless of course, you or someone can show their substance. In the meantime, don't conflate the two ideas and project motives onto others.

This is the kind of uncritical and thoughtless response that's endemic in the LC - that Witness Lee spoke "recovered truth". How can you show that this "truth" even existed in the first century? It was apparently "recovered" out of thin air in the 19th or 20th centuries!
