First post said that Martin Luther recovered the authority of scripture in church, and Witness Lee and his Local Church effectively overturned that. I referenced the Jo Casteel Facebook letter to show how that played out in the LC. The Bible, i.e. the "pure word", was replaced by the "interpreted word" and any loss in meaning was collateral damage, along with our consciences, our ability to think critically, and so on. And so "interpretation" became a means of control.
