I suppose if the Lord wanted a prophet Nathan in our day, He could have had one and if He didn't, we just have to say Amen. looks like the Lord didn't do much about King Solomon during his life. Our God is sovereign.

I'm thinking that Lee and Kaung worked under Nee much in the same way that Benson Phillips and Titus Chu worked under Lee in different regions. With the lack of travel and communication back in the 30's and 40's in China, perhaps Lee and Kaung had little time together other than sitting in Nee's many training meetings.

When Benson, Ron, and Company quarantined Titus Chu and the GLA, many asked how could these brothers work together for 30-40 years, and then become bitter rivals? For me, the answer is simple. That exclusive program breeds rivalries, conflicts, suspicions, back-bitings, man-pleasings, politics, etc., especially among the leaders. That program also transforms beloved brothers into belligerent bullies.

For years and years under Lee's leadership, suspicions were regularly sown concerning gifted leading brothers. It was merely part and parcel of life for LC leadership. It was the absolutely by-product of MOTA methodology -- as soon as one man rises to the top, other ambitious men will want to be next. How else could the Papal lineage become so corrupt?

The mere thought of MOTAs, Popes, and Deputy Authorities in the church age of grace is absolutely contrary to the Lord's teachings in the gospels. For every ounce of good they have done, kilotons of damage have been inflicted upon the church.
