We had a thread on this forum once: "Things Witness Lee knows but others don't". It was all quotes from WL saying, "Not may Christians realize..." and "Not many Christians appreciate..." or "Most Christians don't understand this, but..."

Somehow WL had these abilities - not only to know what most other Christians thought (even though he hadn't been to their meetings for years) and to know what was superior to that thinking. And these godlike abilities would be transferred to us if we just sat in the proper chairs, in the proper meeting on the proper ground, listening to the oracle of God for these present times. Then we'd likewise know what was best for everyone else.

19. "Drunken Noah" - Witness Lee's sons got caught molesting the church secretaries, and making off with the church funds.
20. "Rebellion" - Anyone who mentions Witness Lee's sons. See also, "Storms" and "Turmoils"
21. "Proper" - Anything being promoted by LSM/Anaheim.
22. "Attack" - Anything said to critique LSM/Anaheim, or that wasn't slavishly subservient.
23 "Critique" - When LSM/Anaheim said something to correct others, such as their broadsides "Affirmation and Critique"
24. "Deputy God" - The Alpha Male in Anaheim, aka "God's oracle", "today's Moses", or "Today's Paul".
25. "Saints" - Anyone on the "proper" ground. Once , in conversation, I said I was from a city with no LR church group. The listener frowned, puzzled. "Are there any saints there?" He asked me.

"Yes, thousands of them" I replied. "You know what I mean", he said, nonplussed.
