Deuteronomy 11:19 says that Parents are responsible to teach the words of the OT to their children.

I feel many elders in the LRC hid behind WL saying they wouldn't "deviate from the ministry". Yet Biblically I don't believe that absolved them of their responsibility before God. Likewise, anyone in the LRC who had spiritual or physical "children" would also, in my understanding, be responsible. Therefore, based on the verses I have quoted I believe that God holds all of us responsible to teach. It may be that a "new" believer will be held to a far less stringent standard than an elder or someone who is assigned to teach the whole congregation. Still, I see no basis for anyone to absolved of sin merely by blaming WL for teaching error.
