Hi Brother Evan...., You remind me of me. But facts are what should prevail. We come to find out that of course WL built his ministry on those who went before him, he got tremendous help from others.
There was a poster named "EldenHall' who after reading thru the Brethren writings, (him and his wife), found that WL took much of the content of the economy of God from TASparks. I won't say more.
I'm tuning in to LSMradio.org at night and listen to tape after tape the last months. No question he had his commentaries, concordances, and lexicons out, then with those beneficial sources in front of him he came up with a well-sourced fellowship for the churches.
He would have something original also, but Nee, for one, went before him, and all those Brethren expositors did also. WL has acknowledged his sources. He got the help so that we could get the help.
The radio brothers believe and repeat what he says, and are usually quite impressed and I, for one, get the benefit of their fellowship. I also get the benefit of the brothers on the forum in their challenging some things he has said. Even the radio brothers admit, at times, that what they are supporting and repeating is not easy to understand (so they explain to the listeners what they know they might find difficult also to receive and understand).
