This is a very helpful compilation of abusive control through threats of spiritual death before God in published LSM works. Very clear evidence of putting too much emphasis on membership in a small group lead by specific men.
Also, this threatening language is psychologically abusive enough without having to claim there is teaching of eternal damnation and/or loss of salvation if one leaves LSM-aligned Local Churches. Being accurate in reporting prevents counter arguments of "being misrepresented." That's why I think it's important to be precise, here, as well as being fair.
