Default Re: My Testimony: Olvin

Here's another question about Witness Lee as a minister to be revered and honored. If he really was such a great minister, then how did he go so far off the reservation? Either he didn't go off, and we are in error, or he never was that great of a minister in the first place.

As I said, you probably have strong feelings one way or the other.

I think Lee's help for us came down to one thing. He taught us that Christ is to be experienced personally. You can pretty much throw the rest out and you will still be left with the majority of the help he gave. He got the details of it mostly wrong in his effort to uniquely codify the "inner life," and eventually became misleading. But he did teach us that Christ is to be experienced by us directly. For that much I am grateful.

But much of the rest... eh.

Like I said, ambivalence among the thoughtful.
