Back in my days of deception here is how I resolved the contradictory teachings of WL. One involved Christians going to the cinema to watch movies. In one booklet WL gave a young man a ride to the cinema and money and then returned when it was over to pick him up. Several time in the so-called Life Studies he mentions that attending movies is not good. So which is it? Ah, to the rescue comes the concept of logos versus rhema word. The reason WL could speak contradictory things is that he spoke by the rhema or inspired word. At one time it was the inspiration to condemn movies, and at another time it was inspiration to facilitate a teenager to go to movies. Kind of like when RK says we are all brothers and the calls a certain one minister of death. Silly me, when the MOTA is speaking in rhema there can be no contradictions. Kind of like the Pope speaking ex cathedra.

Years ago, at my first conference, I heard similar contradictions about Lee's teachings from Max Rapoport concerning owning cars. One day in the meeting Lee said we should not buy new cars. That was worldly. Then, when a brother missed a meeting while working on his broken car, Lee said we should not own used cars.
So Max explained to us that Lee was not
contradicting himself, rather that Lee alone was a "spiritual" man. We were all "natural" men, so we could not understand him, and we should just receive the Spirit from his speaking.
Uh huh!
