Evangelical, only individual believers--not groups of believers--can be "in Christ." The only real group is the one church, which includes all believers in Christ, not just members of the Local Church group. What you are saying above is outrageous.

Also, one could just as easily change the last sentence in your quote above to read, "In the Local Church they focus on meetings, trainings, ministry books, and Witness Lee." And despite the truth of that, I would never say that you, or any other believer there, is not in Christ.
