Website full of hate, finger pointing and blaming

The get-out-of-mind stuff is a fantasy of Lee. He wanted to be a "crazy lover," so he had to be "out of mind."

Paul beseeched us to be not conformed to this world: but be we transformed by the renewing of our mind, that we may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God (Rom. 12:2). And be renewed in the spirit of our mind (Eph. 4:23).
Now read what David said.
I am forgotten as a dead man out of mind: I am like a broken vessel. (Psa.31:12)

If anyone wanted to be "out of mind" after reading the verse carefully, well, I could only say this is a free country.

Nice to see the old deification argument rear its head. I agree that WL did not teach this until late (the 90s I believe) but just read his and Nee’s messages on Romans et al and you’ll see it lurking there. I’m guessing he wasn’t ready to shock the troops which it did, believe me.

That said, it was a major revelation to me and one that finally made sense of why we’re here in the first place: we enlarge God. I absolutely reject any theological view that places humans as mere worshipers. It’s a weak God that asks for that.

Further, let’s be real people: how is it we are children of God, sons of God, brothers of Christ if we’re not deified? Now I know this is a mystery. I’m sitting here looking out at Lake Michigan just having enjoyed a fine dinner, relaxing … I don’t feel very deified. Very human, instead. But I do believe Christ liveth in me.
