The Recovery Bible and The Recovery New Testament are products of the "Local Church" organization, founded upon the teachings of WATCHMAN NEE. 'The "Local Church" is it a cult of Christianity? The teachings of Witness Lee, are they heretic? Though we cannot classify the "Local Church" or the "Church of Recovery" alongside the major cults of Christianity (Mormons, Jehovah’s Witnesses, etc.) because of the latter’s major deviation from the "faith once entrusted to the saints" we cannot also consider them "orthodox" because of their aberrant teachings following that of Witness Lee. We need to have a constant watch on this group and therefore pray for them that they may see the truth in the light of the Holy Scriptures. By our definition of the cult of Christianity I’d say they are inclined to be one' (http://thebereans.net/arm-wlee.shtml). 'The New Testament Recovery Version was translated and revised by the Editorial Section of Living Stream Ministry from 1974 to 1991. The New Testament Recovery Version contains numerous study aids...All of these study aids were written by Witness Lee, who received much help from the writings of noted Bible expositors throughout church history, including his co-worker, WATCHMAN NEE' (http://www.recoveryversion.org/). 'NEE, WATCHMAN (1903-1972) Widely read Christian author with some controversial teachings. NEE required blanket, unquestioning obedience. He also taught that all Christians must have a "Covering" - a person who has delegated authority, must be obeyed unconditionally, and who must be imitated. This "covering" does not stop with matters of faith and doctrine, but also extends to personal and secular matters (such as choice of employment, place to live, whether or not to marry, etc.) In addition, NEE taught there should only be one congregation in each city. Whenever NEE's followers moved into a city, they proclaimed themselves as the only church approved by God in that city. These doctrines have been picked up by various abusive churches and cultic movements, such as the International Churches of Christ. Under the leadership of NEE's disciple and co-worker, Witness Lee, his house church movement, the Local Church (known to it's followers as "The Lord's Recovery") later also became controversial' (http://www.apologeticsindex.org/n00.html). |
