I agree with this. Think about this destructive teaching by Lee that "natural love is honey, which spoils the offering." That alone killed brotherly love in many a brother and sister.
WL and Company taught us that the only "safe" love was our love for his ministry. Even our love for the Lord, based on His word, was risky. John Ingalls was condemned for following his own conscience. I was told that "coming back to the pure word of God" was a tactic of he enemy.
In part, Lee produced Laodicean arrogance and pride by demanding allegiance to him and his ministry, and to him and his ministry alone.
