Uma Historia da Restauragao do Senhor nos EUA
(4)
29 de junho de 2011
Em Anaheim
37. Resolvendo Questdes Sérias de uma Lideranga Tandem
John Ingalls estava na igreja em Anaheim com Witness Lee, Philip Lee e o escritério do Living Stream
na mesma localidade. Seu livro, Falando a Verdade em Amor, sobre os eventos e preocupacies
relacionados as igrejas locais no final dos anos oitenta é unico, pois descreve suas muitas experiéncias
com 0 irmao Lee ¢ Philip Lee em seu papel de lideranga virtual em conjunto. John Ingalls registra
frustracdes de 1987 a 1989 enquanto ele e outros irmaos tentavam resolver problemas sérios que
tinham com Living Stream e Witness Lee.
37. Conversas com Bill Mallon e Godfred
No outono de 1987, John Ingalls e Bill Mallon, dois colaboradores altamente respeitados nos Estados
Unidos, passaram varios dias juntos discutindo os acontecimentos na restauragao do Senhor. Durante
esse tempo, Bill Mallon explicou a John Ingalls como ele havia sofrido naquele ano de varias
maneiras por eventos ocorridos nas igrejas e no trabalho do LSM no Sudeste,
38. O Envolvimento Aumentado de Philip Lee nas Igrejas
John saiu de suas palestras com a profunda impressao de que Philip Lee estava se tornando cada vez
mais envolvido “em coisas espirituais concementes 4 obra do Senhor, as igrejas, os presbiteros e os
cooperadores”. Isso preocupou John, uma vez que Philip Lee foi contratado por seu pai para ser 0
gerente comercial do escritsrio Living Stream e foi “supostamente instruido a lidar apenas com
assuntos comerciais” e era “totalmente desqualificado tanto em posicéo quanto em carater para tocar
em assuntos espirituais relacionados ao obra do Senhor ¢ das igrejas”. Jodo naturalmente ficou
alarmado e comecou a temer pelo testemunho do Senhor.
39. Assuntos mais sérios sobre Philip
Ao retornar a Anaheim, John procurou Godfred Otuteye, que coordenava com Philip Lee no
escritério do Living Stream. Ele perguntou sobre o papel de Philip, dizendo que achava que Philip
estava “sendo promovido e indo longe demais em seu envolvimento no lado espiritual do trabalho,
ultrapassando muito sua posicao como gerente de negécios’.
Godfred confirmou que a situagao era muito séria a esse respeito e que “viu e ouviu muitas coisas no
escritério do Living Stream nos tiltimos meses que eram muito sérias e muito erradas. Godired
concordou plenamente que o envolvimento de Philip Lee no trabalho estava fora de linha, mas
indicou que havia coisas mais sérias do que isso, afirmando que “toda a situagao é doentia e
corrupta”.
40. Irma do LSM relata mé conduta de Philip
Poucos dias depois de falar com Godéred, um relatério chegou a John Ingalls sobre a ma conduta
moral de Philip Lee no escritério do LSM. Uma irma que ocupava um cargo de destaque no Living
Stream e que havia servido la “sacrificial e fielmente” por muitos anos testificou a John que Philip

vinha violando ela e outras irmas por um longo periodo de tempo e que ela nao o suportaria mais.
Sua intengdo era renunciar, o que John confirmou ser realmente apropriado. John ficou chocado e
surpreso com este relatério e contatou Godfred, que disse que ja sabia disso,
41. Others Contacted About Case
John Ingalls was quite concerned about this case, especially since ten years previously there had been
reports of similar incidents in the LSM office about Philip Lee that were confirmed by several eye-
witnesses. He also felt that this immoral situation with Philip was more than a local matter since
LSM was associated with churches all over the globe. John, therefore, “believed it to be reasonable
and advisable for a few prominent co-workers who were aware of the history of the case and who
were respected by Brother Lee to approach him and inform him of the matter.”
42. O irmao Lee diz que tira as maos de seu filho
No caso, dez anos antes, Gene Gruhler, um ancido, perguntou ao irmao Lee o que seria feito a
respeito de Philip. A forte palavra do irmao Lee para ele foi que os ancidos mantivessem suas maos
longe, e que ele cuidaria de seu filho. Philip continuou, no entanto, como gerente do LSM, para
desespero dos ancidos, incluindo John Ingalls. John disse que sempre que o irmao Lee era tao forte
em um assunto, os ancidos sabiam que nao podiam fazer nada. Este foi o histérico de John para lidar
com relatérios sobre Philip dez anos depois. A Fermentacao da Rebeliao Presente criticou
severamente John por contatar colegas de trabalho que estavam “conscientes da historia do caso”.
43, Nenhuma Aco Novamente Tomada Pelo Irmao Lee
O irmao Lee novamente nao tomou nenhuma acao depois de tomar conhecimento através da
comunhao dos irmaos dos sérios problemas no LSM criados por seu filho. Levaria meses até que 0
irmao Lee finalmente removesse Philip de sua posico como gerente do LSM em julho de 1988, e ele o
fez com relutancia e sob grande pressao dos santos e dos anciaos. Entao os presbiteros, que também
estavam sob pressdo dos santos, acabaram removendo Filipe da comunhao da igreja. Os presbiteros
subsequentes, incluindo Ed Marks e Francis Ball, eventualmente reverteram essa excomunhao,
dizendo que foi uma decisao errada, pois abragaram Philip a mando de seu pai ¢ o restauraram &
“comunhao” na igreja em 1993. Eles até escreveram um palavra de desculpas a Philip por nao assinar
uma carta, informando-o de sua “ago graciosa””
44, Preparation for Fellowship with Brother Lee
In the fall of 1987 John Ingalls came together with some of the brothers that he had close fellowship
with through the years concerning the Lord’s work. They all had the same registration within them
that the church life had gone down in their localities and was very poor for the most part throughout
the country in other localities. (Brother Lee’s assessment was similar, which he expressed many
times.) The brothers sought out fellowship before the Lord to determine the reasons for this. This
they did in preparation to have fellowship with Brother Lee, when he retuned from Taipei.
45. Conclusions About Condition of Churches
They came to the following conclusions about the spiritual condition of the churches.
1) the ministry was being too highly exalted and emphasized 2) There was an excessive emphasis on
numbers 3) LSM was growing in influence and control with Philip Lee as the office, with whom all
the churches were to be one 4) Aberrational speaking and activity in the full-time training in Taipei,
the FITT, which was being headed up by Philip Lee 5) Moral misconduct of Philip Lee in the LSM
Office
46. First Fellowship With Witness Lee
On December 12th, 1987, four brothers went to see Brother Lee after he had returned from Taipei.
John Ingalls, Al Knoch, Godfred Otuteye, and Ken Unger represented many brothers as they opened
their heart to Brother Lee about their concerns, John Ingalls would have sixteen sessions of
fellowship with Brother Lee, and Ken Unger twenty from this point over the next couple of years in
hitpsiartomisbolt wordpress.com/2011/08/28/a-istory-of4h 282uvoero22 22:14 Uma Histéria da Restauragdo do Sento nos EUA(s) | cinto de atemisa
their attempts to address the serious developments in the recovery. This first fellowship was
encouraging, but in nearly all subsequent times of fellowship, they made little progress with Brother
Lee, and Philip still held his position for months as manager of LSM.
49. A Surprising Elders’ Meeting
On Monday, December 14, 1987 Brother Lee held an elders’ conference hoping to hear from the elders
their positive reports about the new way. Many were honest and open with him that
discouragement, dissension, and division had developed in some localities and brothers were gravely
concerned. Brother Lee was not open to their fellowship in the Body; rather, he was offended by their
honesty. He proceeded to push through, not only as “commander-in-chief” of the work, but also of
the church,
50. Another Shocking Development
On the morning of December 19, 1987 before leaving for the training in Irving, John Ingalls again
received a call from the LSM sister requesting to meet with John and Godfred. She shared in more
detail Philip’s immoral behavior. This left the two elders “revulsed and in a daze”. They felt that
Benson and Ray must know something about these matters and determined that they should be
approached in Irving.
51. Fellowship With Benson and Ray
That afternoon John Ingalls and Ken Unger flew to Irving. They had a time with Benson and Ray the
next day and shared with them initially about their concerns that were non-related to the misconduct
of Philip Lee in the LSM office. They let them know what a huge mistake they were making in
promoting and exalting the office and Philip Lee, starting in 1981. Benson and Ray disagreed. This
response surprised and disappointed John and Ken, who then tried to impress them with the
seriousness of the matter.
52. Benson and Ray Refuse to Hear About Philip's Misconduct
When these same four brothers came together again later that day, John brought up Philip’s
misconduct in the office of LSM. Benson and Ray, who were deeply involved with LSM, became
angry and would not hear them, saying that this was a matter to be taken up by the church in
Anaheim, not by them. John and Ken felt that the matter was more than a local church problem and
should involve Benson and Ray who were the counterparts of Philip Lee in the LSM operation that
touched all the churches.
53. Benson and Ray Bring Report to Brother Lee
In the elders’ meeting that night it was evident that Benson and Ray had reported to Brother Lee all
that John Ingalls and Ken Unger had shared with them. He spoke on the same matters, vindicating
himself strongly while rebuking those he thought were opposing, though not mentioning
names. John Ingalls felt that Brother Lee was out of line with the truth and was not presenting
himself appropriately before the brothers. A number of brothers were grieved, disturbed, and
discouraged by his talk.
