Who Said It?

Also, I'm wondering why you don't remember Lee saying this kind of this thing, or why you would be hesitant to acknowledge he said it.

You seem to know a lot about the Recovery, except when it comes to Witness Lee. Where were you?

He was always talking about "the Recovery" being God's unique move. I heard him say many times if you left the Recovery you could no longer go on with the Lord. He said that every brother that ever left the Recovery lost the flow. He even included T.A. Sparks in this number!

He drilled that into us and it took many years for me to get over it.

Yes, I am aware he said things like this, which is why I went ahead with my post on the assumption that this is exactly what he said. However, to say that "the local church is the Lord's unique move on Earth today" can be a valid scriptural teaching if you are not referring to your sect but merely discussing Matt 16, or 1 Cor 3, etc.

Likewise I could say that what the Lord is doing among us is His unique move on Earth as a personal testimony without any implication that He isn't doing anything else anywhere else. My point would be that this was the Lord's doing, not man's.

The quotes that UntoHim provided are a good example, the one that condemns denominations as being the "fold" is very arrogant, but it doesn't deny that denominations are part of the Lord's move on Earth, instead WL says that denominations are for the "blind" believers. So as ugly as it is it does not agree with the quote you gave.

Why wouldn't I want the reference? The quote has much more power and force if you provide the reference. Also, if that is in fact what WL said it condemns everyone that heard it and did nothing. So if it turns out WL said this during a message I heard I should repent.
