It is not printed. That does not mean he never said it.

And never DID it. As I've stated I was kicked out over the MOTA practice being shoved down my throat, literally.

Drake, did you believe that Witness Lee was "the minister of the age" while he was alive? If so, where did you get that idea?

Personally I think it is fascinating that you cannot find Witness Lee talking about being the MOTA anywhere in the written word. To me that is the most blatant hypocrisy. He knew that what he was speaking in meetings was a damnable heresy.

No, not in those terms.

It was apparent that he was the one who was the lead minister in the ministry of the age. I got that idea because he obviously was.

Was it the "Ministry of the Age" because of the "Ground of the Church" doctrine, or were there other factors that were necessary?

ZNP,

Your starting point is always doctrine which I have already stated is a non-starter for me personally.

In any case, I don’t understand your question. Please rephrase.

Thanks

You said it was obvious that Witness Lee was the lead minister in the Ministry of the Age. I am asking what made it obvious to you that this was the "Ministry of the Age"?
