The same thing happened in Taipei. Lee forced the church to sell property to pay off his bad business debt. The saints were furious about this. As a result Lee came to the US to start anew. But he told everyone that the Lord sent him here.

When taken together along with the lie he perpetrated about Nee's discipline, as well as numerous leaders who were maligned and slandered by him I don't think we can support some kind of life changing event separating "early Lee" from "later Lee". Rather I think a "bait and switch" is far more believable based on the evidence.
