Good Morning TJ,
Yes, your clarification surely helped my jumbled post become more clear, I actually addressed a few different posts but the focus of my thoughts were nailed by your comments...Thanks!
I think we've moved beyond the heresy issue, I'm looking forward to where these posts will go, I would agree with Peter:
The testimonies that come to mind when I ponder the testimonies I have heard about what attracted folks to the LC, have more to do with the lovely community, the felt power in the meetings and the mutuality among the believers. For others, there really wasn't even anything outward that attracted - not a practice, not a doctrine - in fact, just the opposite. One brother who came in in the seventies recounts that he was really really really annoyed by the whole group after his first meeting, but also knew that that is where God wanted them to be.
My attraction was in pursuing the writings of Watchman Nee, for it was in these writings that I found a way for Christians to pursue the deeper things of God. Others?
