And a personality cult was born. Thanks for posting this Indiana. This doctrine of authority is what resulted in Witness Lee. (And his son's too ... haha)
By the way, upon thinking about this authority doctrine, considering Dr. Lily Hus's revelation of Nee's promiscuity (and worse), Nee's failing was much worse than Noah's. Did that make Nee a super authority of God? Greater than that of Noah.
And where does the scripture, anywhere, speak of Noah as an authority? Why make it about authority?
