The irony in all this was Witness Lee wrote and spoke several times that the saints should read his and Watchman Nee's ministry exclusively because he did not want the church to possibly go astray due to their lack of discernment. Who knew that it was Witness Lee and Watchman Nee's own ministries that required tremendous discernment for filtering out the leaven found in their teachings.

Talk about discernment. PriestlyScribe began a thread titled LC's Flawed Basis of Discernment.

Furthermore, I read several times on afaithfulword only the blended brothers are "qualified to discern".
It was passed on to me once before a LSM publication from the early 90's where Witness Lee said regarding the late 80's turmoil he has done all the research. There is nothing new to be learned and that it was a closed matter. When I find it, I will post the excerpt.
