Dear brother Witness Lee,
It has come to our attention recently through several witnesses that gross immorality and some other sins mentioned in 1 Corinthians 5:11 have been committed by your son Philip Lee (who is identified as your Ministry Office) on more than one occasion over a long period of time. This deeply disturbs us. It grieves us even more that you and some of your close co-workers were aware of the situation and yet not only tolerated it but covered it up. What is worse is that, while this was happening, you and your co-workers were promoting and exalting him to the extent that he was able to intervene in the churches’ affairs in recent years. The peak of this promotion was evident at your elders’ training in Taipei in June 1987. Some of your co-workers were not only themselves under the influence and control of Philip Lee, but were also openly bringing elders and young people of many local churches to come under the same influence and control in your name and for your sake. The five brothers whom you and your Office sent to Europe in your place in May 1986 were trying to do the same here. Our young people who went to your training in Taipei have also testified of the same.
Before God, before the brothers and sisters in the local churches, before the Christian public, and for the sake of the Lord’s testimony, we are compelled by our conscience to fully disassociate ourselves from such sins and behaviour in your work.
– John So and elders of nine churches in Europe

This is the letter of disassociation from John So. If you compare this letter to the Blendeds letter excommunicating Titus it is the Blendeds letter that is perverted.

Disassociating yourself from WL because you refuse to allow a man who is grossly immoral, a wolf, to seize control of the church is what the elders are supposed to do. Rebuking WL for covering up these sins is also what they are obligated to do. The close coworkers refer to RG and BP, and we do know that they were orchestrating the situation so that churches and elders would be brought under the control of this one. There is nothing perverted in what John So has written here, nor are his actions erroneous. He is required as a shepherd of the sheep and one who is to be faithful to the great shepherd, to do this.
