I've given it thought. If we're honest regarding elders we have crossed paths with, there's agreement they're good brothers. For some as Ohio as states many times, the system has produced bullies out of good brothers.
Another possible reason I have considered, many elders are ignorant or uneducated regarding unedited LC history. Generally accept what has been passed by Witness Lee/Blended brothers is received by elders as being concise factual accounts. When at best it's half truths blended in with misrepresentations and besmirching of former leading ones.
Naturally I would expect a DCP monitor to lurk on forums such as this and eventually a report would be submitted to certain blended brothers for their disseminations. Which of course would be withheld from local elders. Until elders decide to educate themselves, they are only able to see one side of the coin.
The fear you have mentioned Igzy is none other than fear of man. There is fear of being described as being independent should they try to exercise their function with impartiality. To do that he would no longer be considered "in one accord". Thus there is fear which binds him to be PARTIAL.
