In other words, there must not be any diversion of the truth or the ministry of the New Testament as endeavored by God's economy.

Please read this paragraph 3x and explain to me what it means. Then read it 3 more times. That's what I did. It still makes no sense.
No wonder why so many have rejected this policy.
Let me relay a bit of contemporary history here. For many years Jim Reetzke Sr. in Chicago (an original "founding father" of the Movement) stood against this policy of "One Publication." He made a famous comment which all GLA leaders have heard, "
Christians have died for the right to publish." It was his own flip-flop on this matter in ~2003-04 which allowed this extreme policy to "become law." His long time partner Bill Barker,
the administrator, also resisted LSM domination, that is until he got publicly chastised by TC and became deeply offended.
Until then, BP and his blendeds were unable to carry out their plans to "lynch" arch-rival TC. Finally, with the Chicago leaders JR and BB in hand, BP could proceed forward with his plans to become "global leader." The whole matter of "one publication," was just a means to reach the end, a smokescreen to hide real motives.
