OK ... OK ... OK ... I admit to making a few comments about long posts, but didn't I add the caveat that long posts had to be
good enough to print out?
Your (
plural,
i.e. you and yours) recent posts are helpful to folks like me who need to know how things veered off course. WL was a master at convincing his most ardent followers that he had magically discovered "
the way." I have noted before that the Ohio LC's had an undercurrent of brothers back to the 70's and 80's who wanted to model the GLA LC's after the Texas LC's. They felt WL's "burden" was diluted under TC, and that the blessing in Texas was strictly due to their more fervent following of WL. Many of these brothers were recently used by LSM/DCP to stage legal coups against TC and his followers for base gain.
Concerning WL's many directives, nothing could be further from the truth. There is no magic way for us to "recover" other than Jesus, Who is "The Way." Even after being quarantined, many other GLA brothers still think there is some "way" that God is willing to bless. For years I watched program after program from headquarters rammed down the saints throats irrespective of what the saints really needed. Like some of the saints you have mentioned, I too felt like a "beast of burden" for management to carry out their latest whims. These were supposed to bring us great joy and blessing, but alas, rarely did.
