I'm not qualified well enough to debate the issue. But I grew in the Orthodox Church and also never heard about the period of 1,000 years of outer darkness for genuine Christians. As for the LC, I have never paid much attention, but think I have heard somethings about this doctrine. It's not good enough to be a good Christian. You must be an "overcomer".
Besides, in the LC, they do think they are superior to other Christians. I heard bro Ron saying, "One day all brothers will be kings. They will rule over people in the millennium kingdom".
Another excerpt from his message:
"Our destiny is to be sons of God expressing God and also kings reigning in the kingdom of God".
Please check out his "proof" - Rev.21:7; 22:5; 12:5.
