I myself am not sure who is doing "quite fine" and who is not. Perhaps the BBs think they can make such assessments. If so, they learned that from their mentor WL who as unquestioned leader of the sole legitimate move of God on the earth, the Lord's recovery, could speak 'ex cathedra' and judge everyone and everything else.
Simply put, if you were abjectly subservient to WL's latest ideas you were 'positive' and doing quite fine; if not then you were 'dark', and 'twisted' and 'negative' and so forth (but even your best attempts would leave WL 'disappointed' at some point!). The BBs as curators of the Museum of Lee Theology have continued to make such assessments. Apparently it is part of their job description as co-workers in service of the memory of WL.
The rest of us, I don't think we should be fooled into deciding who is quite fine and who is not. I myself am doing the best I can, and hoping on God's mercy. Jesus clearly and repeatedly told us that God will have mercy on those who show mercy. Therefore it seems prudent to try to be humble and not claim some status, nor to place such qualitative labels on others.
WL and the BBs have acted as if they were immune to such restrictions. I am not sure that it would be wise to copy them.
