No, he should have said that. He should have said that, repeatedly, and loudly, until the problem was resolved. If you know of an evil, and don't warn others, you become responsible for the destruction that follows.

That was Samuel Cheng, who was Watchman Nee's brother-in-law, who warned Don Hardy back in the '60's. Brother Don later lamented that the Taiwan brothers, due to dangerously strong influences from their Chinese culture, never warned the American saints of the many dangers associated with the Lee family, especially his sons Phillip and Timothy.
Looking back, we now have half a century of casualties of American saints because that warning was hushed. Think about how many dangers and offenses would have been prevented had Witness Lee heeded this warning.
I often tell others that the only reason we should ever raise our voice is for danger. When others are in danger, we have an obligation to speak up. This forum allows us to "raise our voices."
