If we were playing Jeopardy my response would be "What is the feeling of the Body?"

Yes, haha! On the afaithfulword site they kept saying "the feeling of the body" when justifying quarantine (which is the 2nd topic on their page). Who exactly have they conferred with to get this feeling? Just those blended brothers who coincidentally also run LSM? Got it! Give me a break!

I watched them at LSM for years "seed" the congregation with their bias against ones like Titus Chu, supposedly for being "ambitious" and "having his own ministry."

Was not Paul and the other apostles all ambitious to serve the Lord? Was not Paul and the other apostles all desirous of being faithful to the ministry the Lord gave them?

This is one way how they "know" the feeling of the body.

Rebelliours ones were "ambitious", anyone else who left was "offended"

That's what happens when you turn you life over to a book publisher.

Witness Lee – We have to know that today in the church we don’t exercise autocracy, a dictatorship; or democracy, according to people’s opinion; but we like to honor God’s authority as our government, and this is what we call theocracy, Gods government.

Witness Lee said this but his imposition of his 'unspiritual' son Philip as office manager at LSM proves otherwise.

I recently read a website encomium lauding Dong Yu Lan as God's chosen vessel of grace, God's recent 'man of the hour' to bring the riches of heaven to earth. It noted that DYL had ''raised up 900 churches around the world, and this proves that'' yada-yada.

It reminded me how WL used that tactic all the time. He'd point out A and say how it proved B. But if you live by the sword you'll die by it. Philip and Timothy prove that papa Witness wasn't fit to be elder in a local assembly, much less MOTA (assuming such exists).

Witness Lee's practice showed honor to family ties above God's authority.
