I've read those articles and discussed some with the author, Chris Z. He knows I don't agree with all of his writings. The basis of my thinking comes from the Bible, as it is written, not people's interpretations of it. I have seen that the Bible speaks clearly.

The doctrine of UBF is has the word of God as the foundation; it is not built on Dr.Samuel Lee's words. And no, he did not have "diety status" with me.
