In the case of the LC, we were told not to trust anything but the "interpreted word", which contradicted itself occasionally, which went against the NT reception of scripture, calling OT sections (e.g., 1/2 of the Psalms) "fallen" and so forth.
I've told this story before, what happened in the LC meeting when I quoted the "wrong verses". It didn't go over well. That section of the Bible didn't line up with the vision of the age, and should be ignored. The leaders of a group which specialized in teasing "Christ" out of the silver sockets of the ark, out of the windows in Noah's ark, suddenly didn't want to look at what the text of the Bible was saying.

I do support the opening posters' comments. In the case of Lee, and his interpretation of scripture, I would discard it in favor of the plain word of God interpreted via the indwelling Spirit! And in conjunction with Him, if we find supportive teachings that seem to be aligned with the word and aid in understanding, that's great too. Lately I have been learning to look at scripture with a viewpoint of dispensationalism and I believe this to be so helpful. My newfound understanding is helping me a lot.
