They care only for those loyal to them, and will readily backstab any brother who refuses to demonstrate visible and tangible loyalties to them.
Every local elder is under their domination, or they will be marked out and expelled. Do we need to remind you of the endless stories of these victims, or did you just refuse to hear their witness? The Blendeds at LSM are far worse "pastors" than the ones out there in Christianity.
The LSM is NOT for the LC's, that is just a bogus saying. In reality, the LC's only exist for LSM, and that's why they are so easily discarded when they no longer exist for your good.
The Midwest LC elders decided long ago that LSM was NOT FOR THE BUILDING UP of the churches. So they decided that you at LSM will be treated as any other publisher. One reason for this was how the Blendeds constantly undermined the Midwest leadership both publicly and privately. This went on for years. The Midwest leaders prayed and fellowshipped much together and decided not to promote any of your trainings, yet not prevent any from going. It was no different than if a bunch of saints went to a Billy Graham crusade, or a Joyce Meyer conference. That was never good enough for you. You had to take action. Divisive, disruptive, legal action.
This is why Apostle Paul said to "Beware of Dogs, beware of evil workers."

I think it is a little more subtle than this. I think the LSM leaders would love it if the churches were built up, that WL's growth projections were even remotely on target, as long as all of these new ones were buying LSM materials and LSM was getting full credit for what is going on.
On the other hand they don't care if force feeding LSM down their throats drives saints out of the churches and causes division and chaos. It seems to me that selling product is the higher priority and built churches that don't buy LSM are worse than 0 because they will be a negative example to others.
So when they teach about "building" the use of LSM documents is a built in assumption even though the evidence is that using LSM documents is not beneficial to the building of the saints or the church.
