Many times I will pull a quote from Nee which was posted by a reliable source. If it is a quote like the one put up yesterday, I have never seen the need for context because it is extremely representative of what the man taught throughout his ministry. Same goes for Witness Lee.

In doing some further checking, it seems that this quote was pulled from "The Spiritual Man". Not sure of what page or paragraph.

Hope this helps.

Thanks Unto Him. Yes, it is from The Spiritual Man (in Chapter 3 about 6 pages down from header “Spirit, Soul, and Body after the Fall”).

After reading it in context there seems to be a seed in there “confuses the issue of right and wrong” that grew and bore a lot of bad fruit because it was taken to mean “it doesn’t matter if someone does wrong”... i.e. righteousness doesn’t matter.
