Misunderstanding
"Is Christ divided? Was Paul crucified for you? Were you baptized in the name of Paul?" 1 Corinthians 1:13
In the 18+ years since Witness Lee's passing, the blendeds (among others) carry on as if it was Witness Lee who was crucified for them or as if they were baptized in the name of Witness Lee.
Surely it will be said "you're misunderstanding. It's that we appreciated brother Lee's ministry so much"
The misunderstanding is a double-standard. Whether it be John Ingalls, the Church in Moses Lake, or even Steve Isitt and Mario Sandoval, I could say those leading LSM and various localities don't want to try to understand. Their mind is made up. I could shout from the rooftop you brothers are misunderstanding. They'll say, there's no misunderstanding.
When it their in the position wanting to be understood by Christian scholars, etc they'll expect to be understood when there's a perceived misunderstanding.
