What really robs you of "the focus that you are the church," is not some name, but the constant assaults on the body of Christ from the podium.
Here I am very serious.
Remember I am not some outsider, but I was there zealously for 30 years, in the trainings twice a year, speaking in every local gathering, and I can testify that what damages the vision, the focus, of the church was not diverse names, but the constant diet of condescending condemnation towards all Christians and all churches outside the "recovery."
LSM's ministry of condemnation continually builds and fortifies the walls around their camp, causing all of her adherents "vision stigmatization" concerning the church.
