Hey Bradley,
Thanks for sharing, it is not surprising to me that you are much happier outside of the LSm churches. The richness of Christ and His Spirit are real and true - the same can not be said for Witness Lee and his ministry. There are "good", passionate people in the LSm churches, but as you said, there are "good" passionate people that believe in Islam, Scientology, Mormanism, etc. They are not today's ark - that is painfully obvious. And it Witness Lee isn't who he claimed he was - where does that leave him? If his "ministry" isn't what he claimed it was - where does that leave it? It is all in vanity, striving after the wind.
Now if Christ is proclaimed as raised from the dead, how can some of you say that there is no resurrection of the dead? But if there is no resurrection of the dead, then not even Christ has been raised. And if Christ has not been raised, then our preaching is in vain and your faith is in vain. We are even found to be misrepresenting God, because we testified about God that he raised Christ, whom he did not raise if it is true that the dead are not raised. For if the dead are not raised, not even Christ has been raised. And if Christ has not been raised, your faith is futile and you are still in your sins. Then those also who have fallen asleep in Christ have perished. If in Christ we have hope in this life only, we are of all people most to be pitied.
