The brief synopsis of church history which we received was majorly manipulated for personal gain. There is almost no basis in fact. Reading the book
Vision of the Age gives some of the gross distortions which have grown up around this LC view. Imagine every Christian in the world going to Madam Guyon to participate in "God's move."
Puulleease!
Groves was never included because his life and teachings blew holes in the theories we once espoused. Darby, however, was the perfect example to use in order to promote one's own narrow, exclusive, elitist, sectarian and judgmental views.
