Then WL or his Blended acolytes should admit that Watchman Nee was also easily deceived by absorbing Jessie Penn-Lewis' thoughts and channeling it in his book "Spiritual Man", such that the publisher had to acknowledge this in the Second Edition Preface.
(Speaking of which, when Nee & Lee were found plagiarizing they said it was just a cultural misunderstanding, in China when you copy that's showing respect.[
But of course there's no fallen human culture in the LC!])
And then Lee also was easily deceived, repeatedly citing Mary McDonough as an authoritative source for his "three parts of man" idea, and selling her book "God's Plan of Redemption" on his LSM website. In LC meetings, the names of these "lionesses of recovery" were intoned in reverence, yet moments later people would be informed that women couldn't handle the spiritual load.

The reason women are put down in the LC is to remove 50% of all potential rivals. They were used to get power (ME Barber, McDonough, Miss Elizabeth Fischbacher, Ruth Lee, Peace Wang, Penn-Lewis, Dora Yu, Jean Guyon &c) but once power was held they were dumped because, well you know, the Bible says...
But if you google "Watchman Nee Elizabeth Fischbacher" or "Witness Lee Ruth Lee Peace Wang" you'll see how instrumental, essential even, they were to the rise of the Little Flock in mainland China.
