Body Language?
A couple years ago, I wondered if I could be over reacting to WL or too critical for reasons not justified, so I sent one of his YouTube videos to a physician who does body language studies in his...

Re: From a concerned parent
Excellent! I never thought of that. What a great POV to give if I had any boldness left with church members.
While great minds are speaking here -- what about the Bible verses that say to stay...

Re: From a concerned parent
Nell, I think you got it! That's it -- our own hypocrisy -- or at least that is what it becomes in practice. But when it's forced onto us, then I wouldn't call it hypocrisy, but rather coercion...

Re: From a concerned parent
Sounds to me like his conscience was seared.
I wonder if anyone else felt like going to the church meetings was plain hell -- real torture. I've been told it's the flesh being crucified, but then...

Re: From a concerned parent
What is a "forum mentality"?
Even forums could become a cult. There's the Witness Lee cult, and there could even be an anti-Witness Lee cult -- all misplaced devotions.
But the use of the...

Re: A limited relationship with Jesus
If only, but I think that is exactly what they do. A cult leader places himself between Jesus and his people, who must have the one mind of the cult leader and thereby simulate his relationship with...

Re: From a concerned parent
No apology needed. I like to hear both sides. Last time I was here I don't remember the LC Apologists being out in force. It can't help but bring to mind something I recently learned -- the LC has a...

Re: From a concerned parent
A little update! My main objection to the WL church has always been the practice of oneness which results in everyone saying the same thing to practice oneness in mind and spirit (appearance too). ...

Re: First Post kumbaya
None of the 6 churches with which I am familiar use xerox copies of their Morning Revival. Xerox copies are used in the trainings one pays to attend.

Re: From a concerned parent

Re: Jane Anderson
Indiana -- how considerate of you! Hopefully this will help the Andersons feel better. Sadly I've learned that those who should apologize rarely do.
For some reason this made me think of 1 Cor...

Re: Quarantine according to Lee
That is severe, but what choice do they really have when their church of oneness is based on a man and his ministry. If it was Christ centered, they could be more forgiving, and accept all as Christ...
