Why not cite David dancing before the Lord who was then mocked by his wife? That seems like a much more appropriate verse reference to me. OBW has stated repeatedly that he feels the teachings and practices of the LRC need to be completely reexamined. Why can't you see the similarity with WL talking about poor Christianity and what you are doing?
I am not trying to prove everyone else is wrong. I am discussing pray-reading, a long established staple practice in the Local Church movement. I quoted one verse as PART of my argument and was not presenting the idea that one verse in the NT is a basis to reject the practice. (I do agree that Witness Lee did this very thing though) So the desire to "reexamine" the teachings and practices of one little sect is to be considered the same thing as Witness Lee's blanket condemnation of the whole of "Christianity"? Really? You may want to rethink that one.
