In the local churches it is easy to teach and say we love and receive all believers, but that is not the practice.
In most Washington state localities it's well-known "Indiana" is not welcome to meet with any LSM ministry church.
Just as Friedel posted on another thread http://localchurchdiscussions.com/vB...read.php?t=537 on post #42, how many brothers and sisters would be welcome who reject the quarantines 1990-present time? |
I am full agreement that there are big problems in regards to LC practices. My view is that this is mostly a result of who Lee was and also due to the notion that Lee must be followed blindly. It's bad enough that Lee made reckless statements, but Lee was also quite contradictory throughout his ministry. To anyone who tries to understand LC teachings based solely on what Lee spoke, well good luck with that. I think that LC practices have to be considered with a certain amount of weight.
Like I said in my last post, I don't know that doctrinally speaking there is anything fundamentally wrong in the gospel that the LC preaches/teaches, however, the way that it is practiced definitely raises concern in my mind. When it comes to the whole issue of rejecting anyone but the "good material", I have to ask: what kind of gospel are they preaching? Of course, such a practice is a generalization of a LC practice, but these are important things to consider.
