But isn't this what we are saying? Aren't we saying that we must listen to John Ingalls. We must listen to John So. We must listen to this sister from Shanghai that just wrote a book on Watchman Nee. We must listen to the sisters accused of being in the "Sister's rebellion"?
Aren't we the ones that are saying "we should never listen to a man"? After all to listen to Witness Lee's account of what happened to Watchman Nee forces you to listen to a "man", Witness Lee, and ignore many other saints.
Now none of those saints have to claim to be the "o" oracle in order for us to listen to them. How does saying that he is the "oracle" of God mean anything? If he is saying that others are not the "oracle" of God then isn't that a contradiction to what you just said? And if he is saying that all the gifts and all the members of the God speak as the "oracle" of God then why do you need to say that you are the "oracle" of God?
