One Thing Witness Lee Got Flat Right

The problem for me is something beyond and bigger than his teachings. It is a system that regardless of what he teaches or does it is accepted because he is the one oracle. His teachings, practices, behaviors, etc. are never challenged and if they are those that do so are tossed aside. This is an unhealthy system without the proper checks and balances in place and it allowed him, his son, etc. to run roughshod over God's people. Now his successor - the Anaheim Politburo - enjoys the same unchallengeable status.

I would further suggest that the above is an underlying reason why the LC system will always remain a very small denomination in the U.S. and Canada. Most of Christians that I have met in these countries would never accept the "one oracle" idea and would expect mechanisms in place to counter balance or oust from a teaching position anyone like a Witness Lee and those of his ilk.

So your problem was mainly with "authority" rather than with his teachings. And then you leave this "denomination" , maybe with some other brothers?

Are you what someone could call "dissident" ? (always from the point of view of "LC's"). Or i could say: is this web a product of a brother that didn't agree with the way brother Lee did things and is trying to show the world how bad it is this group?

Im not sure if im expressing myself as i should.
