Obviously their conceited insistence on the universal application of their own church model is offensive and insulting to the intelligence of anyone who has connected the dots and understands the implications of it.
Hypothetically "unregistered", suppose where you live, or some North American city where there isn't "The Church in _____". Suppose the Christians you meet with register as The Church in ______, does that make you the church on the proper ground? Suppose when the saints who recieve LSM as the one publication, want to have a lampstand in your city, do they have to come and meet where you're at since you're already meeting as the church in _______?
