Re: Thoughts, Questions, And Wanted Discussion On Local Churches

I went to the FTT for 6 months and it was not sold as a way to become a full timer, though it was a requirement to become a full timer. Instead it is sold as a way to become an "Overcomer".
But when...

Re: Thoughts, Questions, And Wanted Discussion On Local Churches

I agree with this, but there is hierarchy among the sisters as well.

It goes
1. Wife of... in order of who they are wife too (people always look up to the senior co-workers wives)
2. All other...

Re: LGBTQ, in LC and Beyond.

Personally I have not been discussing it because I do not see any damage being done to ciswomen, only damage being done to transwomen, transmen and intersex women.

Yes, there are predators, but...

Re: LGBTQ, in LC and Beyond.

I agree with this statement so much!

Having friends come out as transgender and non-binary and explain their experiences to me really has helped me understand so much more and to think more about...

Re: LGBTQ, in LC and Beyond.

I just want to come in here and say that, yes, how we talk about transgender individuals has changed.

There has been a move away from gender dysphoria being an essential part of the definition of...

Re: LGBTQ, in LC and Beyond.

What did she say about being bisexual that was concerning?

Being bisexual does not change how faithful or loyal one is to their partner, just like being heterosexual does not guarantee a person...

Re: LGBTQ, in LC and Beyond.

You seem very interested in the internal politics of the LGBT+ community.

If you must know, some radical feminists who view men as the "enemy" have decided that transwomen are actually just men in...

Re: LGBTQ, in LC and Beyond.

I left the LC about five years ago, but during the fivish years before that I heard brothers in LC speak more and more frequently to condemn homosexuality. This is in New Zealand though, maybe in the...

Re: Deceptions on Campus

In my locality I would say about half, maybe more, of the students who join ConC are Asian, despite the college campus being predominantly Caucasion. At the early meetings in the year you get a...

Re: Affirmation and Critique

Is there a thread somewhere I can read about what happened with Max R.

There is an older sister who once mentioned Max R to me and the way his 'divisiveness' damaged the LC. It was the only time I...

Re: Deceptions on Campus

I admire you for continuing to address all these strawmen arguments.

I have lost my patience with him, and will only address comments that actually concern my points.

Re: Brainwashing

Re: Probably should have made this earlier
