The Seven Apostles of the Local Churches and Their Endings
——The Bad Fruits
of Watchman Nee on Ecclesiology
Young
people are more familiar with the Charismatics apostles and prophets walked
about all over the world, but they have rarely heard of the seven apostles
appointed by the Local Churches（聚會処、小群、地方教會）. The spirit that fulled Watchman Nee（倪柝聲） in
Yantai in 1935 was an evil spirit of the Charismatics, so various strange
appearances of the Charismatics are not uncommon in local Churches. The
charismatic spirit is an evil spirit that pretends to be the Lord Jesus, and
often sets itself up as God, trying to be equal to or surpass the authority of
God the Father and Christ. The evil spirit inspired Watchman Nee to subtly use
"the Triune God became flesh" and "Christ is that Spirit",
making his believers think that “that Spirit” is God the Father and the
incarnate Christ, and the Triune God is just the same Spirit Different
manifestations in different times and occasions. Witness Lee（李常受） picked
up Watchman Nee's mantle, and proclaimed
that Spirit later became Lord-Witness Lee（常受主）, and developed
the most evil four-in-one-god heresy（父-子-靈-常受主四位一體異端） among
Chinese.
The
spirits that water Watchman Nee and Witness Lee are all charismatic evil
spirits, and the methods of the evil spirits in them are exactly the same as
the charismatic tricks. Watchman Nee’s accusation of denominations for causing
the church’s disunity has the same purpose as the charismatics’ evil spirits in
advocating Ecumenical Movement. They are both condemning the holy church of the
Lord Jesus Christ with unwarranted charges. The church has always been one, she
was created by God Himself, the church is one in the truth and the Holy Spirit,
and it has been a united body of Christ since the church came into being (John
17:21-23; 1 Corinthians 1: 10-13). "Christians" who don't realize the
unity of the church must be fools, accusing the church of not being united must
be a trick of Satan (just as charismatics accuse Christians of being controlled
by the evil spirit of orphans and tempting them to admit thief as father. Every
Christians with the care of the eternal Heavenly Father, the presence of the
resurrected and living elder brother of Christ, the protection and leadership
of the indwelling Holy Spirit mentor, and countless brothers and sisters who
love each other, they will never be orphans. ) Watchman Nee believed that other
denominations belonged to the devil and were evil organizations, and only he
restored the church to what it should look like according to God’s will. The
purpose of Watchman Nee’s anti-denominationalism is to establish a sect that is
not restrained and exempt from inspection according to his own will, because
all other sects’ criticisms of him have become the devil’s attack, a cross of
glory given to him by God. This deceitful victory method of "the son beats
the father" made it impossible for Watchman Nee to wake up and repent
through the persuasion and criticism of others.
Watchman
Nee and Witness Lee believed that himself was the ministry of the age, the
apostle and prophet specially chosen by God in this age to reveal and restore
the truth that had been misunderstood by the church and covered up for thousands
of years. This is the same trick as the largest contemporary charismatic false prophet,
Rick Joyner, who defined the revelations of the apostle Paul as obsolete and
low-level, and defined the revelations he received from nightmares and ghosts
as high-level revelations of the times. After they have obtained the authority
of the apostles and prophets beyond the recorded Bible, they can interpret, add
or delete the Bible at will without being tested. If there is a difference from
traditional church interpretations of the Bible, it is that they minister in
this way to restore the contribution of God's truth, so that they will always
be truth.
Regarding
the views of the church, Watchman Nee advocated returning to the church life in
the apostolic period, following the example of the early church in the Bible,
and putting forward the principle of the local church that only one church can
exist in a place (Witness Lee’s Local Churches movement, Kou Shiyuan’s （寇世遠，基督之家）The
Home of Christ Church’s The world is one family and the whole world is unified
is the inheritance and application of the principles of Watchman Nee’s local
church), and he also publicly condemned the sins of the sects, which naturally
caused the resentment of various sects and groups, criticizing him as spiritual
pride and retreat. In fact, this is another form of The great unity， which
is to unify the whole world in religion, so the development of the Local Churches
is mainly to steal sheep, split and occupy other churches.
Watchman
Nee also advocated the restoration of the biblical concept of priesthood of all
believers, condemned the pastor system, believed that paid pastors did not
conform to the Bible, advocated all believers to serve as a whole, preached the
gospel, prayed, valued the cultivation of believers, and advocated divisional by
region family worship gatherings (that is the Local Churches system 聚會処、小群、地方教會、召會、聚會所).
In
the summer vacation of 1922, 19-year-old Watchman Nee（Ni
Tuosheng倪柝聲） and
24-year-old naval officer Wang Zai（王載） decided to follow
the example of the early church recorded in the "Acts of the
Apostles" and started their first Only three people attended the breaking
of bread meeting: Wang Zai and his wife and Watchman Nee. By 1948, Watchman Nee
replaced the previous "Antioch Church Model" with the "Jerusalem
Church Model", and revised some of his important church concepts. Watchman
Nee’s thoughts during this period are mainly found in works such as
"Affairs of the Church", "Orthodoxy of the Church", "The
Road to Work in the Future", "Authority and Obedience",
"How to Be God's Representative Authority" and other works. With the
emergence of this new model, the Local Churches have two types of churches
based on their locations:
Ordinary Local
Churches—this
kind of church is basically the same as in the past, and the elders and deacons
are in charge of the spiritual and general affairs of the church.
The Local Churches
at the center of the work—in this kind of church there is an extra
group of apostles (note: no matter whether it is Catholicism or Protestantism,
few people admit that there are still apostles today, and the practice of the Local
Churches is exactly the same as that of the charismatic church). Although the
apostles could not manage the church, these apostles became the elders of the Local
Churches in the capacity of brothers to manage the church. Furthermore, since
this place was the center of the work, the provision of the pulpit had to be
strengthened, and this responsibility naturally fell on the apostles. Because
of this, the Local Churches in the work center will naturally be superior to
the ordinary Local Churches, and eventually it will be just like a leading
central church.
In
line with the promotion of the Jerusalem model, Watchman Nee further clarified
the importance of authority and obedience, thereby strengthening and
strengthening the position of the apostles.
Watchman Nee
pointed out that believers must submit to the representatives of authority
appointed by God to demonstrate their submission to God. In a
local church, the highest authority appointed by God is the elders, but the
elders are appointed by the apostles. In other words, the authority of the
elders comes from the apostles, and they cannot overthrow the authority of the
apostles. In the same way, “The appointment of elders depends on the apostles;
the authority to abolish elders also belongs to the apostles.” Elders should
learn to obey the authority of the apostles, “because they exist，is the
apostles appointed them.”
Watchman
Nee's "Supplement to Abolishing the Elders" undoubtedly placed the
elders under the apostles, and the power of the apostles in the church was
concretely strengthened. In order to cope with the change in the nature of the
work of the apostles and the increase in workload, Watchman Nee believed that
it was necessary to train the apostles, so since May 1948, he established a training
center (for training apostles) in Guling, Fuzhou. Churches from all over the
world select potential apostles for systematic training to improve the quality
of apostles. Watchman Nee began to train canonized apostles long before
liberation. Peter Wegener, the contemporary global chief apostle and
charismatic leader, did not start to establish the International Coalition of
Apostles (ICAL) until 1999 to mass produce apostles and prophets. Watchman Nee
was half a century earlier than him.
In
addition, Watchman Nee also launched the "Hand Over" movement in line
with the centralized power line in Jerusalem. "Handing over" means
selling everything, giving everything up, and offering it to the Lord;
"handing over" also includes offering out the believer personally,
and "handing over" also includes the church itself, and the church
must also hand over so that the apostles can take over the church . This move
aroused the resentment of some local churches, and caused many regional
churches to split.
In
any case, with the shift of the current situation, Watchman Nee's view of the
church after the Anti-Japanese War was indeed developing towards a centralized
system and authoritarianism, which has aroused a lot of criticism. This
actually provides a god-making mode. This kind of god-making effect, Watchman
Nee’s nephew Pastor Chen Zhongdao（陳終道牧師） once described
the relationship between Watchman Nee and the Local Churches in this way, which
can be regarded as a model of “charismatic leader” in today’s terms: "When
I came back to Foochow in 1948, what disappointed me the most was that I felt
that some of them really worshiped God, but there were many who 'worshiped'
their idols. We can often Hearing 'Brother Nee said' instead of God's word. It
seems that 'Brother Nee said' is more authoritative than 'Bible said'. If I
were to write all the 'mythologized' stories I've heard about Brother Nee, this
book would instantly become a masterpiece, but thank God I forgot about those
stories because it's 'nauseous'. ...It is easy to hear a lot of stories about
my uncle who seems to be deified in the Local Churches. In fact, he was too
admired in the past years. God had a good purpose in allowing him to fail like
this. "
After
Watchman Nee came back to serve for the third time in 1948, one of the most
emphasized messages was "submit to authority", which was to make the
congregation unreservedly believe in the leader, and even "submit to
authority" was more important than the truth; he believed that submitting
to God's authority To be a representative is to submit to God, and to resist an
authoritative representative is to resist God. Although the church advocates
the elders to govern the church, he has the status of an apostle to override
the elders. This kind of leader's praise is intensifying. "A certain
clergy class was established among their high ranks, and the ranks of their
front and back were indicated by the number of seats in a row of chairs, and
the first seat that had no objection was reserved for him (Watchman Nee). This
point, On the one hand, it can be seen that it may be their attitude of trust
in him, but in fact the slogan of 'submitting to authority' has become a great
problem for many people in their future work." (Li Maozheng: "Typical
in the Past", (Taipei: Zhonghua Evangelical Theological Seminary Press),
1989, p. 174.)
History
has proved that Watchman Nee's view of the church provided a practical and
efficient development model for heresies and cults. Later, heresies and cults
with serious harm in China, such as the Shouters, Eastern Lightning (Almighty
God, Practical God, Power Lord) were established as kings, the Lord God, and
the Three Redemptions Churches (Disciple Church, Head Covering Church,
Wilderness Church, Two Liang Liang, Three Redeemed Christs), Mainland China
Administrative Deacon Station, Load-Changshou Sect, etc. (呼喊派、東方閃電（全能神、實際神、能力主）被立王、 主神教、三贖教【又名門徒會、蒙頭教，曠野教、二兩糧、三贖基督】、中華大陸行政執事站、常受主派等等异端邪教),
whether it is doctrine or organizational model, they all follow or imitate
Watchman Nee's church model.
The
"seven great apostles" appointed at the Local Churches are: 1.
Watchman Nee 倪柝聲; 2.
Wang Peizhen 汪佩真; 3.
Zuo Furu 左弗如; 4.
Huang Jinqing 黃錦清; 5. Yu
Chenghua 俞成華; 6.
Zhang Zijie 張子潔; 7.
Witness Lee 李常受.
After
Watchman Nee（倪柝聲） sold
the church to the Three-Self Church with deceitfully, he died in prison. Never
seen his testimony of repentance for the sin of betraying the church to the
Golden Calf（三自会）, but
it is often heard that he sent a letter from prison to confess that he never
gave up his faith and even left his last words "I (because of) believe in
Christ and die". (At that time, many saints sent messages saying that they
did not fall because they wanted to strengthen the brothers and sisters
outside. Mr. Nee’s meaning plead arguments for himself.) Although the National
Congress of Gentiles commended Watchman Nee as a Chinese martyr, his various
performances still revealed The nature of false apostles. Watchman Nee’s moral
failures (such as deceit on the signature issue in the 1950s) and religious compromises (such as
joining the Three-Self Church in the 1950s) have proved that Watchman Nee’s
teachings did not make him a spiritual person. "The Spiritual Man" is
to fool others, but he himself does not follow suit. This is also a warning for
us Christian today. Watchman Nee was imprisoned due to Wu Yaozong's （吳耀宗）accusation.
The accusations include: extremely reactionary in politics, tax evasion in economy,
private possession of pornographic videos and books in life, and having an
affair with two virgin co-workers. (It is said that after investigation it was
Wu Yaozong's frame-up). During the Cultural Revolution, Nee’s wife, Zhang
Pinhui（張品蕙）, was
severely persecuted because she refused to divorce her husband. She was whipped
many times and suffered multiple injuries all over her body. In 1969, the
Shanghai Public Security Bureau, the Law and the Military Management Committee
gave her the label of a counter-revolutionary and "handed over to the
masses for supervision and reform." In November 1971, Zhang Pinhui
suffered a broken bone at his home at No. 88, Lane 200, Yueyang Road. After
being sent to the hospital, no one treated him. On November 7, he died of
illness in the corridor of Shanghai Zhongshan Hospital. Watchman Nee and his
wife had no children.
Wang
Peizhen（汪佩真）, who
ranked second among the apostles, was as famous as Li Yuanru（李淵如）. Li
Yuanru was originally the editor of the Nanjing "Lingguang Newspaper"
sponsored by Jia Yuming（賈玉銘）, but was poached by Watchman Nee. The
prototype of Miss Bu, the supervisor of Jinling Girls' School in Chapter 9 of
"Queen of the Dark Chamber" which witnessed by Christiana Tsai（蔡蘇娟） is Li
Yuanru. Wang Peizhen's parents are non-Christians. She was five years younger
than Li Yuanru and four years older than Watchman Nee. Wang Peizhen was
recommended by Mrs. Sweet（甘惠泉師母） of the American Baptist Missionary
Society. When she was studying in Hongdao Girls’ High School, a church school
in Hangzhou, she believed in Jesus because of the preaching of Dr. Shi Meiyu（石美玉醫師）, a
female evangelist. In 1918, he was inspired by the revival meeting led by Dora
Yu（余慈度）,
determined to dedicate himself to celibacy and preach the gospel, and changed
his name to Peizhen. Regardless of her parents' opposition, she insisted on break
off an engagement and ran away from home to Nanjing to study at Bible Teachers'
Training School for Women.
Wang
Peizhen met Li Yuanru（李淵如） and Wang Zai （王載）during
his stay in Nanjing. After graduating from Bible Teachers' Training School for
Women in 1921, she began to preach in various provinces of China. Her preaching
was powerful and popular, and she was called the Spurgeon of China. In 1925,
she went to Yantai to preach the gospel, and Witness Lee（李常受） was
inspired to dedicate herself to preaching.
On
January 29, 1956, during the Sufan Movement (肅反運動), she was
arrested in Shanghai together with Li Yuanru, Zhang Yuzhi（張愚之）, Lan
Zhiyi（藍志一）, and
others, and was labeled as the "Watchman Nee Counter-Revolutionary
Group"（倪柝聲反革命集團）. He
was imprisoned in Tilanqiao Prison and died in Qingpu Labor Camp during the
Cultural Revolution.
In
the appendix of Wang Chunyi's （汪純懿）"How Wonderful"（《何等奇妙》）, there
are witnesses of the last scenes of Wang Peizhen and Li Yuanru's lives. Li
Yuanru declared that he did not believe in Christ in Shanghai Prison in 1962,
and advised Wang Peizhen not to believe it either.
In
1965, Li Yuanru broadcast her reasons for not believing in Christianity to the
whole prison in the auditorium, and later she told the inmates in the women's
prison once again. Wang Peizhen seldom spoke, but he repeatedly said openly:
"God does not answer prayers, there is no God." An overall criticism
of the Local Churches was summed up by Wang Peizhen herself in prison:
"They criticize the denominations and call believers to leave the
denominations, but they gradually form a denomination that is more serious than
other denominations". although she Because no longer believe in the Lord,
the expression is inaccurate, but the general meaning has reached the point. In
1965, Li Yuanru thought that she would be released early, so she tried her best
to get released through meritorious service, but in fact she never release
until died.
After
serving her sentence, Wang Peizhen was sent to Qingpu Farm in Shanghai, where
she suffered from an incurable disease and died of it.
Wang
Peizhen was one of the seven great apostles appointed by the Local Churches,
and ranked second, second only to Watchman Nee.
Wang
Peizhen(汪佩真) once
declared: "I want to be a person well-known before Satan, just like Paul
(see Acts 19:15). I want Satan to know that I, Wang Pei, really only want the
Lord! For the Lord, On the path of service, I won’t be afraid even if the sky
falls.” This is exactly the same as the declaration of charismatic believers,
they all want to gain their name before Satan, and in essence such declarations
are manifestations of not believing in the Lord Jesus Christ, They want to use
Satan's promotion of them to threaten God to give them the reward and glory
they deserve.
The
fruit of faith of Wang Peizhen and Li Yuanru(汪佩真、李淵如) two women is a
living testimony of “"Hebrews"
6:4-6: 4 For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have
tasted of the heavenly gift, and were made partakers of the Holy Ghost, 5 And have
tasted the good word of God, and the powers of the world to come, 6 If they
shall fall away, to renew them again unto repentance; seeing they crucify to
themselves the Son of God afresh, and put him to an open shame. 【kjv】”. These two women later never believed in
Christ until their death, and their previous spiritual performance was nothing
but false faith. Because they pretended to be real, they were not easy to see
through, so that they were honored as the female Spurgeon in China, so God had to
use the iron fist of the Atheist Party machine to test out their falsehood.
Facts have proved that Wang Peizhen is nothing but a false apostle.
What
Christians should pursue is to be remembered by the Lord Jesus and God the
Father, to be praised and rewarded by God, and there is nothing wrong with
Satan. The pursuit of Watchman Nee and Wang Peizhen to be famous, promoted by
Satan, and praised by Satan is to worship Satan the devil, to seduce people to
worship Satan and the devil, and to prove that they are under the dominion of
Satan. Nothing to do with the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
Zuo
Furu(左弗如) is
the founder of Guilin Local Church. When she was young, the Lord led her to
follow with signs and wonders. After receiving grace, she loved the Lord very much,
and since she was young, she decided to remain a virgin and serve the Lord
wholeheartedly. From 1948 to the early 1950s, Zuo Furu was the person in charge
of the "Deacon's House" in Guling, Fuzhou. During the land reform
movement, she was persecuted because of the signature issue.
In
1956, due to the influence of Watchman Nee's "How I Turned Around",
Zuo Furu announced that he stood on the "people's standpoint" and was
in charge of the reorganized Shanghai local church together with Tang Shoulin(唐守臨) and
Ren Zhongxiang(任鐘祥). In
May 1956, at the Second Shanghai Christian Representative Conference, he was
elected vice-chairman of the Shanghai Three-Self (Luo Guanzong(羅冠宗) was
elected chairman), and was re-elected at the Third Shanghai Christian Representative
Conference in April 1961. Zuo Furu told the brothers and sisters about the
process of her thought transformation, and later this article was published in
the first issue (1956) of the "Newsletter" of the "Believers
Study Committee", entitled "God Shows His Power in Our
Weaknesses". For Zuo Furu's positive performance after joining the
Three-Self, you can refer to "The Memoirs of Zhang Xikang—Review of the
Local Church in Shanghai in the Past Sixty Years——Chapter 19: The Situation of
the Shanghai Christian Meeting House After the Anti-revolutionary
Movement."(《張錫康回憶錄—上海地方教會六十年來的回顧----第十九章 上海基督徒聚會處經過肅反運動的情形》)
Zuo
Furu died of cancer in 1979. When he was dying, she said a word: "I regret
it. I have led my brothers and sisters on the wrong path." Judas, who
betrayed Jesus, regretted seeing that Jesus had been condemned.
Huang
Jinqing（黃錦清） used
to be one of the persons in charge of the Guling Apostle Training Center, but
he disappeared afterwards.
Yu
Chenghua(俞成華) was
an elder of the Shanghai Local Church
from 1936 to 1956 and one of Watchman Nee's important co-workers. He was
martyred for his faith in the political turmoil of the 1950s. Yu Chenghua was
born in a Christian family in Xinchang County, Zhejiang Province on January 5,
1901 (November 15th in the lunar calendar in the 26th year of Guangxu in Qing
Dynasty). His father, Yu Fengquan (俞封泉also known as 又名俞和全), was
a local blacksmith. He is a Christian with a firm faith and has withstood the
test of the Boxer Incident in 1900. In 1927, Yu Chenghua graduated from
Shanghai St. John's University School of Medicine, which is known for its high
level of English. After graduation, Yu Chenghua worked as an ophthalmologist
and served on the side. In 1933, Yu Chenghua went to Changsha, Hunan, where he
worked as the director of ophthalmology at Xiangya Hospital. In 1936, at the
request of Watchman Nee, Yu Chenghua gave up his high-paying position in
Xiangya Hospital (a monthly salary of 175 yuan) and returned to Shanghai to
lead the church. During his stay in Shanghai, Yu Chenghua successively
translated "Simple Prayer Method" and "Scented Myrrh" (a
biography of Mrs. Guyon 蓋恩夫人傳記, introducing this idol of idol worship to
Local Churches and even Chinese churches.）and "With
God" (Lawrence 勞倫斯) and
other foreign spiritual masterpieces belong to the school of inner life or
mysticism, published by Shanghai Gospel Book Room. Rise up in the church to
seek the air of inner life. In 1946, after the end of the Anti-Japanese War, he
and Wang Peizhen resumed church gatherings in Shanghai.
In
the early 1950s, Yu Chenghua succeeded Ni Tuosheng in Fuzhou and was in charge
of the later work of the Guling training. During the land reform movement in
March 1951, he was detained due to the signature issue. On January 29, 1956,
more than a dozen leaders of the Shanghai Church, including Yu Chenghua, were
detained in the Nanyang Road Local Church for isolation and examination, and
were asked to explain the problem of Watchman Nee. He always refused to accuse
anyone, for the sake of peace of mind. After 20 days, he was sent to Tilanqiao
Prison for detention and review. Due to being interrogated day and night and
lack of sleep, Yu Chenghua's physical condition deteriorated rapidly and he
fell into a coma three times. He was released on medical parole on April 12 and
died in Shanghai Hongren Hospital on April 13. (Yu Chenghua witnessed
"Life in the Holy of Holies - Anecdotes of Yu Chenghua" 俞成華見證《至聖所內生活――俞成華軼事》）
Yu
Chongen(俞崇恩), the
son of Yu Chenghua, made a deep reflection on the spiritual pride of the Local
Churches during his experience of the fiery trial movement of church in China:
"I admit that the church in our background was very proud in the past, and
I am afraid that it is within the scope of all churches in China. , can be said
to be the most proud. The main reason is that there is a co-worker who guides
us, (Referring to Watchman Nee ), he is really a brother who is extremely
smart, has a good memory, is well-versed in spiritual classics, and has perfect
eloquence and knowledge....So when After many years of reformation, after I
came out of the farm, I no longer dare to classify (see 1 Corinthians 3:1;
Titus 3:10) and look at people differently. We are all children of God, and we
all come to serve the Lord with one heart .”
Zhang
Zijie(張子潔), an
elder of the Local Church in Qingdao. In January 1935, Zhang Zijie was sent by
Watchman Nee to Qingdao, establish a
Local Church in Qingdao.
In
1948, Zhang Zijie participated in the co-worker elder training organized by
Watchman Nee in Guling, Fujian. After returning to Qingdao, starting from the
Spring Festival in 1949, Zhang Zijie led the whole church in Qingdao to preach
the gospel, and the number of believers quickly increased from more than 300 to
4,000. In addition to the hall at No. 4 Longshan Road, there were also 20 home
meetings. In 1950, the Qingdao church became the central church in Shandong,
Henan, Shaanxi, Gansu, and Xinjiang work areas, and Zhang Zijie visited various
places as an apostle.
In
March 1951, Zhang Zijie invited Gu Renen, a free evangelist from Shanghai, to
Qingdao to preach at the meeting place at No. 4 Longshan Road. Gu Renen was
arrested for "spreading reactionary speeches" and "expelling
diseases and exorcising ghosts". In the same year, during the land reform
movement, more than 1,500 believers from the Qingdao church signed a letter to
Chairman Mao Zedong and the Fujian Provincial People's Government, requesting
to retain the land of the "Deacon's House" in Guling, Fuzhou. In
June, the Qingdao Church participated in the preparatory committee for the
Qingdao Christian "Three-Self" Movement. At the end of the year,
Zhang Zijie and Zhang Shiping were arrested for "counter-revolutionary
crimes". The number of congregations in the Qingdao church dropped
sharply. Zhang Tianren continued to be in charge of the Qingdao church. After
withdrawing from the "Three-Self" twice, he finally publicly admitted
his mistakes because of "the help of patriotic believers" and "the
inspiration of the government", and joined the organization for the third
time. In the autumn of 1956, Elder Zhang Tianren(張天人) of the Qingdao
Church was elected as the deputy director of the Qingdao Christian
"Three-Self" Patriotic Movement Committee at the Second Qingdao
Christian Representative Conference.
In
1958, Qingdao Christianity implemented joint worship, and Longshan Road Meeting
House became one of the 10 Christian joint meeting places in the city, and
other meeting places of Qingdao Church were withdrawn and merged. In 1965, the
meetings at the meeting hall on Longshan Road ceased, and the building was used
by the Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao Medical College. After the end of the
Cultural Revolution, on March 19, 1981, the third representative conference of Christianity
in Shandong Province was held, and Zhang Tianren was elected as the
vice-chairman of the first committee of the Shandong Provincial Christian
Association. On May 26 of the same year, Qingdao Christianity held the fourth
representative meeting, and Zhang Tianren was elected as the deputy director of
the Qingdao Christian Three-Self Patriotic Movement Committee and the president
of the newly established Qingdao Christian Association. In 1984, the Qingdao Local
Church resumed its activities.
When
Witness Lee(李常受) was
nineteen years old in April 1925, Witness Li accepted the gospel and devoted
his life，because
listening to Wang Peizhen's(汪佩真) preaching of "Exodus" to break
away from Pharaoh's rule. Witness Lee was baptized with some water in the Chinese
Independence Church(中華自立會), but left soon after. About 1927,
Witness Lee began to attend the meetings of the Brethren Association. For the
next 7 years, Witness Lee met in the local Open Brethren Association (Newtonian
牛頓派 ),
learning to use allegorical methods to study prophecies and He read the Bible
diligently, and at the same time subscribed to The Christian Newspaper
published by Watchman Nee, a young Christian in Fujian. He began to accept
Watchman Nee’s views, and in 1930 he was baptized in the sea by the Brethren
missionary Bernard(布納德). Later, he received the attention of
Watchman Nee and inherited Watchman Nees mantle.
In
1931 Witness Lee was filled with evil spirits who received shouting evil.
Witness Lee was a submissive person with few opinions. Working with Brother Nee
in Shanghai, he was often asked by Brother Nee: Witness, what is your opinion?
Witness Lee said, "I have no opinion. I will go wherever you tell me to
go!" Witness Lee never expresses an opinion, but he does what he should
do. Under Watchman Nee, the manifestation of this shouting evil spirit was not
obvious. In the 1960s, when Witness Lee was preaching "The Lord's
Restoration" and "Calling on the Name of the Lord" in the United
States, this evil spirit broke out, showing obvious characteristics of the
Shouters, and spread to China, becoming a cult and heresy with great harm
incubator. Witness Li also naturally became the fourth person of the Four One
God（四位一體）, the
"Chang Shou Lord"(常受主), and the Shouters who shouted the name of
the Lord also became "Calling the Chang Shou Lord".
On
February 20, 1994, at the Chinese New Year Conference, the 89-year-old Witness
Lee once again saw the "peak of divine revelation" in the Bible:
"God became man in order to make man God in life and nature.（Not in
the Godhead） ” Exposing his heresy thinking to the naked eye:
Satan’s ultimate goal is to sit on the throne of God and call himself God. The
weird heresies spread by Witness Lee include: Christ was created, and the flesh
of Christ has the nature of Satan; Christ is the Father also is the Spirit;
Christ will not come again, only Witness Lee is the"Chang Shou Lord"(常受主) who
saves the world, we must worship and praise the "Chang Shou Lord"(常受主);
"The age of Word has passed", Now is "the age of the
Spirit"; there is no heavenly family, the heavenly family is the church; the
Bible is obsolete; 'the Lord is the Spirit', 'you shout, and the Spirit comes'.
etc. At present, all factions basically recognize Witness Lee as a heretic, and
anyone who does not think Witness Lee is a heretic must be a heretic himself.
【Editor’s
Note: The calling, calling on the name of the Lord, and calling on the name of
CHANGSHOUZHU the Lord(常受主), which are unique to the Witness Lee's
Shouters sect, are the same hypnotism(催眠術) as the most
important feature of the sect—Pray-Reading the Word（禱讀）. it's
for the familiar spirit(交鬼).
The
purpose of shouting is to give up the ability of reason and will to
distinguish, to make people tired and confused, to achieve a hypnotic effect,
and to facilitate consulter with familiar spirits（交鬼通靈）.
"Shout
on the name of Lord", "Call on the name of Lord CHANGSHOUZHU(常受主)",
in addition to intentionally violating the third commandment, treating the
names of the only true God, the Lord Jesus Christ, the truth Holy Spirit, which
names of glory, honor, holiness, majesty, richness, mystery, as ordinary names
that are empty, ordinary, and meaningless tease and shouting casually; it is
also a kind of hypnosis, which is similar to the charismatics or New Era heresy
and evil spirits, speaking in tongues cannot stop or screaming, crying aloud,
raved, laughing foolishly and laughing until they die, so as to obtain the
anointing ability of releasing and different "spirits" It's the same
ghost trick. They all want people to quickly suffer from brain hypoxia, fatigue
and drowsiness, to achieve the effect of sanity decline, blank consciousness,
and loss of ability to distinguish and resist, so as to achieve the purpose of
evil spirits and demon possession.
“Pray-Reading
the Word is hypnotism”
《禱讀就是催眠術》
The seven great
apostles appointed by the Local Churches at are all false teachers, which
proves that this church system is also heresy, not an ordinary Christian
church, but one that worships, believes and spreads false gods and evil
spirits.
