We got a school bus and took it as a group to another church to perform a service to show them how church was done. Later when I had migrated to NYC, the youth group came to my college and took over the Christian student meeting to run it in the LC way! That was the start of my leaving----what arrogance! I do have an occasional contact in NYC with someone who dearly loves the Lord, and I do pray for leadership there since the bible says leaders will be judged more strictly. But getting back to the topic, I have thrown anything I own that was LC in the garbage. When I pass I don't want anyone to find LC things in my property and then be led astray. It takes decades to build a reputation and it can and has been lost in minutes by WL/LC. The thorns have choked out the good growth. Lord have mercy on me and all still in the LC.

Only LSM publication I have left is
The Fermentation of the Present Rebellion. Is this book of lies and half-truths even available anymore?
When I think of aging ones who likely purchased Life-Studies, Collected Works of Watchman Nee, and Collected Works of Witness Lee on credit, it's destined for recycling.
Don't consider it "the baby", but "the bathwater".
