The Verse says, "
Perfect love cast out
all fear."
Seems to indicate you can have imperfect love with some fear, or you can have no love with all fear.
I can certainly testify of some genuine brotherly love in the Local Churches, then, and even in the Living Stream Church now. But the degree of fear in the Local Churches truly hampered the Love from being perfect in the organization.
