"Witness Lee claims that when he "crossed over the pacific ocean, he dropped his doctrines in it and found a new way" - Now, tell me how Biblical that is?"
Sorry, but, respectfully, you are way off. Such claims, you will find, are very typical of the founders of most groups. Martin Luther, Wesley, Zinzendorf, and several others have all made the claim to have found a new way. There is really nothing unbiblical about it at all.
Witness Lee has never made an unbiblical claim about himself, the church, or the Christian life. I wish some people would just get over their traditional concepts about what the church is and what the Christian life is about. Maybe then they could learn to embrace teachings that go deeper than most popular evangelical teachings.
