My observation has been that LC members (including myself) are instructed to fellowship with the Lord, use our spirit to contact the Lord, then write down our inspiration. We are never told to repeat Lee's messages. Maybe that's how it was in the 70's/80's. In fact, if anything, I've noticed people try to out do Witness Lee in their spiritual revelation and insight. That is, to merely repeat Lee's messages is seen as a less spiritual thing to do than to be able to compose your own inspired message. Anyone who merely repeats Lees messages is seen to be a less spiritually mature Christian. I think this all points to the fact that on this matter of LC members being taught to simply repeat Lee's messages, is quite wrong. If they are just starting to learn to speak in a meeting, then speaking Lee's messages might be the first thing they are encouraged to do, but they are expected to move on from that and compose and deliver their own prophesies.
