Kerry and Bob,

In 1964 Brother Lee spoke on the line of life and building that can be seen throughout the Old and New Testaments. In that scriptural unveiling of God's eternal purpose was enough basic vision to last our life time. The first book I read in the church life contained those messages, which were so biblically informative and illuminating for seeking believers, including me in 1972 (the year after I had migrated from Seattle to Indianapolis, when the Lord was moving and spreading in the local churches).

The last book I read was The Vision of the Age, this year, messages from 1986, which I had also seen on video then.

A comparison should be made of the scriptural basis and spiritual enlightenment found in the first book, compared to what we find in the second - a concocted vision of dubious worth.

As a former leader said, "We began with Christ as life for the building up of the church and we ended up with a man and a ministry." The Minister of the Age concept induced an intensified interest in brother Witness Lee and helped him produce ministry churches which is what people see prevailing today.

I wonder, Kerry, how you can deny this. And, would you deny this before God and man on this forum! And, stay here with us to cover many points of our interest and concern. As it is, no one has given an intelligent specific assessment of any writing I have put out in the last 15 years. And, I believe no one will do so. But you should if you can. But you can't do it, and neither can DCP.

Will you show up, Kerry, and give a defense for yourselves as leaders of "the local churches"? If you cannot, will you then stand out as one who summons up his integrity to admit that what I say has merit? And, that much of what you and others have stood for does not. Actually, the silence of all leaders around the globe has already spoken,
