The Church of Gideon and His 300 Men

[Indiana]

The Party of Gideon - W. Lee

“Please be clear: any church that meets as a local church standing on the ground and recognizing all the local churches around the globe, regardless of whether or not they take the new way, they are a genuine local church. We do not mean that any church that does not take the present new way becomes no more the church. No, we don’t practice that way. That is sectarian….

“Don’t say, “Brother Lee, I stand with you”. I don’t like to hear this. I don’t like anyone to stand with me. I don’t like to have a party. I have been in the Lord’s recovery over a half century. You all can testify in the Far East, in mainland China, in Taiwan, and in this country, I never liked to make anyone side with me to make a party. No, not at all. Right? Don’t make any party. Don’t think that we, the 400 or the 500, all got convinced and say, “Let us all stand together; we are the 300 of Gideon.” It may be okay to be the 300 of Gideon. But don’t form a party. The 300 with Gideon still loved the children of Israel. They still fought the battle for them. They never considered them as a separate party. That is a division. We don’t agree with that. We must have a proper attitude and a good spirit toward all the brothers and the sisters. Whether they would take this new way or not, we don’t change our attitude, and our attitude must be one of loving - a loving attitude.” Appendix 2 "Don’t cut off any church."
