The Christian is trichotomous: body, soul, and spirit.The church is made up of ‘spiritual’ and ‘carnal’ Christians.Scripture can only be understood by means of ‘intrapsychic’ working of the Holy Spirit in the believer and only if taught by the ‘spiritual’ man.Some of the points of contention in Watchman Lee’s writings and sermons are: It must be noted that concern for the spiritual well being of believers are foremost in Lee’s writings and sermons Now, years later and after more studies of Watchman Lee’s writings, Roberts has written another book in which he is more critical of Watchman Lee’s writing and theology.
