Lee's connotation, however, and often repeated, was "different in taste, different in feeling, different in sense, different in flavor, different in smell, different in appearance, etc." Even Titus Chu, who similarly had a Chinese accent like Lee, could not pass the necessary "smell" test. Hence he was quarantined as a rebellious leper, and will remain in isolation until long after he is buried.

The ministry quietly replaced the standard of the common faith, because it was viewed as the only ministry on earth that encompassed all the items of "truth".

WL implied that everyone else had somehow compromised the truth. Thus to turn away from Lee's ministry was equated as turning away from the faith itself.

This is why it is so very dangerous for any group to think that they have something that others don't have.
