Right, on the one hand, there's the "controlling vision of the Lord's Recovery," which was recovered through Watchman Nee and Witness Lee.

On the other hand, there's the "present, up-to-date speaking in the ministry," that requires our constant attention, lest we miss out on being "up-to-date."

Moral of the story: You need to pay lots of attention to "the ministry"...or the train might leave the station without you.
