There is often a need, sometimes a desperate need, for reproval among God’s sanctified people. Surely, as many here know, there is a need for accountability within The Lord’s Recovery that has long been neglected.
It's been neglected because the ministry of Witness Lee has set an impossibly high standard for rebuke:
Check out Week 10 Day 4 in this HWMR - https://blendedbody.com/hwmr/WLTwistingEph5v11.pdf

Or look at this similar ludicrous declaration made by Witness Lee in 1988 - https://www.johningalls.com/#/reader/chapter/38


Now do you understand why rebuke is only ok whenever it's done for protection of the system?

P.S.
