Exactly! Then why would the Recovery want to distance itself with Christianity as in
"6. We need to maintain the gap between the Lord’s recovery and Christianity; the wider this gap is, the better, because it is a gap between us and the present evil age"?
Don't you see the hypocrisy there?
"Dear brothers in Christianity, we do love you. We are slapping at your face just to wake you up and let you know you are living in the present evil age. Oh, you need some help? Sorry, I am busy widening the gap between you and us."
Never forget why Jesus became a man and went among sinners in the first place.
Dear Evangelical, I think you can do better than using stock answers and tweaking terminology. Think hard, pray hard. Open your heart, turn to your spirit. Aim not at winning an argument. Aim at knowing our Lord and winning life. Care less about whether the teachings offend you, care about whether they offend God.
P.S. Be careful when you say the outlines are just "stock standard beliefs". The leading brothers say they are not just cut and paste from old standard messages. They are supposed to shed new light in every training. You might hurt their feelings.
