They said all of you are the older generation, you are old and dead, we have seen the vision.
The Lord’s move is with us. And, to make the story short, they caused a lot of damage. A whole generation in the churches was lost. And, all of these young workers came to nothing."
This is what happened in the late 1980's as well. Elders were told there were old, etc by younger ambitious brothers. Just as brother Ron has mentioned, these younger brothers back in the late 1980's "they caused a lot of damage. A whole generation in the churches was lost."

This just reeks of historical revisionism. Does not anyone remember that it was LSM operatives who stirred up the young people, and it was LSM operatives who undermined the existing local and regional leadership, and it was these same LSM operatives whose goal was to take over control of the entire Recovery by destroying the reputation of those upright brothers like John Ingalls who stood in their way.
I used to like Ron Kangas as a gifted teacher, but his views of Recovery history and LSM's seamy actions behind closed doors, like those of his mentor Witness Lee, are steeped in hypocrisy, misrepresentations, gross distortions, and twisting of the scripture, all for selfish gain.
