In the Lord’s Recovery devotion to the ministry is synonyms to devotion to Jesus. There isn’t a difference in their eyes. An outsider looking would see how much emphasis there is on “following the ministry” rather than following Jesus, but someone steeped the TLR it’s not visible. Remember The Ministry is THE New Testament ministry, the ministry of THE age, it’s THE high peak of the divine revelation. If that’s your understanding, you wouldn’t even notice how much emphasis there is because they are the same in your eyes.
