Default Re: Answer to Mr. MacDuff.

Unfortunately, in The Local Church, there is only one interpretation because there is only one interpreter. In fact, in many cases Witness Lee's interpretations are treated at the same level as scripture itself, sometimes even higher. A good example of this would be Witness Lee's proclamation that one of the authors of the New Testament (James) was "devoid of the divine revelation". Apparently Lee missed that day in vacation bible school where they taught that James' words were not devoid of the divine revelation at all, THEY ARE THE DIVINE REVELATION. But since much of the writings of James do not match up with Lee's teachings (in fact they contradict and expose his teachings) he had to make sure his followers knew that his words were more "divine" then what James wrote.
