I daresay these guys may have been considered cutting edge 150 years ago, or even in Nee's day. Readers in China in 1926 were surely impressed, as were a few naiive readers later in the USA, but their work is hardly pressing current discussions forward. Only the cloistered few in the "remnant" or "restored" or "recovered" churches would really focus on them, today.
I'm a self-identified "fundamentalist" in that I believe and confess that God loved the world so much - so much! - that he sent his only begotten Son. But a willful and deliberate obtuseness and enforced ignorance - see e.g., "One Publication Policy" - isn't where I'm heading.
