Let me rearrange some of aron's latest post (which was repeating some of an earlier post by Amcasci??)

WL made a big deal of saying how different his gospel was. But he tried to have it both ways, because he said that WN had read every good Christian book and sorted the wheat from the chaff, and thus had handed the "recovery" a pure gospel which was following the footsteps of the apostles. So WL claimed the LC gospel was fully rooted in the ancient ways, contrary to "Christianity" which had deviated.

I remember the looks on the faces of the LC faithful as the latest "flow" came out of Anaheim. They were the faces of a dispirited people. All the novelty and joy had been sucked away by a ministry and an organization which was anything but new.

If Lee really had gleaned all the best that was available so as to devise this "new" gospel, coupled with the fat that Lee was supposed to be the one with a direct line to God, then why was there ever any need for the kind of changes in "flow" that were so severe that it shook the very foundations of all that even Lee had been teaching prior to the new flow?
Must be his line was not so direct and his gleaning not so successful.
