Hi Lisbon,
If that's the case over all, I will be forever grateful for the wonderful elders in San Diego I was under in 1975. We had many a message on repentance (almost to a fault). And several conferences on the Power of the Blood of Jesus as well as very good messages on the Triune God. I am sure since leaving around 1978ish, it too has fallen under the LSM spell of not repenting. 3 of the elders are no longer in the LC btw.

Some are quite happy that we don't talk about sin or going to hell. That's far too dark.

That is why there is no Presence, no Power, No Anointing of God anymore.

In the last few years the BB's have covered the prophets in the OT and it seems incredible that nothing is ever mentioned about sin or repentance. That is far too low. They just look for Christ. They need to revisit the 7 churches in Rev 2 & 3. There is a lot of admonishing to REPENT!!! The LC I was in surely is not the LC of today. It had problems then too but nothing like it has today. God have Mercy.

Well I don't know what Messiah (Christ) they are looking to because the Christ I/we know will convict me/us of sin (NOT condemn, but Convict ...and that goes for any true believer & follower of the One True God.
I pray they repent.
