I never heard much about old and new wine skins until in the LC. I do think that was one item of teaching that was dead on. Two thousand years of history has pretty well confirmed this.

Many may well know that Bible churches are out growth of Darby, Schoefield, and other Brethren backgrounds, but possibly by the Lord's mercy they have chosen to separate from the real Darby sect. I feel the Bible church I attend is something of the Lord. At 84, I'm not too dogmatic except that the LC is clearly way off the mark.

Shall I assume then that you have not secured a burial plot from LSM at the Grace Terrace burial site in Rose Hills Memorial Park right near "our dear brother" Witness Lee?

Listen to what they have to say about it ...

In 1997, a group of believers burdened for the preservation of biblical values came together to discuss plans for a dignified Christian burial place for fellow believers. Out of that gathering and the fellowship that followed, Grace Terrace Memorial Association was formed and Grace Terrace was conceived. A 2.5-acre parcel of scenic terraced land was identified within the undeveloped area of Rose Hills. Soon afterwards they commissioned the most talented and renowned design team in the country to design grounds that are unique and symbolize the lofty principles of the Christian faith. The result is Grace Terrace that will become a Christian cemetery unmatched in beauty and rich in a landscape that reflects our spiritual heritage.

Who knew such a thing could even exist?
