The God-Men offers a thorough and fair study of the Local Church movement, headed by Witness Lee. It puts a searchlight on those controversial points of departure from classical Christianity found in the movement. This study is a helpful tool for those trying to sort out the reigning confusion found in new religious movements today. - R.C. Sproul, on back cover.
