What exactly would we be “poisoned” by? Truth, falsehood, satan? I never had an explanation, just “poison”. In context it would have been untruths about Witness Lee’s ministry. If his ministry is supposedly THE ministry - what are they afraid of? Or worse, are they afraid that people will actually find Christ rather than how he’s portrayed by Witness Lee?
When I was researching the Plymouth Brethren history of splits in order to understand what was about to happen to us in the Midwest, I came across the Brethren use of "bugbears." I had to laugh when I learned that the British "bugbear" was exactly the same as the American "bogeyman," a literary device used to frighten little children in order to manipulate their behavior. How fitting! It all made sense.
