But in the meeting, as went into the ear of the young ones who loudly AMEN, the message is that there are no Christians in India but for the great work of Witness Lee's ministry. It's this doublespeak which drives me nuts.
That's quite allright if the intent in India is for the ministry LSM publishes. However if the intent is to spread the gospel, do not be so narrow to think God is so limited He can only use one organized ministry in LSM for that. Within the scope of this forum, there have been former LC attendees who have been to India for the sake of envangelism. John Smith is one brother who comes to mind. There are others.
