WL drew on many 19th century sources for his teachings. Some of these were excellent, some were not. I think those taken from Darby, especially after he expelled Newton and Muller in the late 1840's, were the worst.
Many of these teachings, some hidden beneath the surface, instilled a "feel good" arrogance into all the hearers. The elitest "we are the Recovery," and the exclusive "no one else has what we have," are perhaps the most destructive, filling the Recovery with Laodicean pride and blindness.
Beyond this were the obvious errors like the ground of unity, the MOTA teachings, becoming God, the economy of God, etc.
