okay..... then it appears from their website that they affiliate with Titus Chu (no surprise there), T. Austin Sparks, and Watchman Nee... and they link to LSM for the latter.
The teachings of Watchman Nee define everything that I have been sharing here... the local churches, the ground of the local churches, the work of ministry, all of it is straight out of those pages of The Normal Christian Church Life, Further Talks on the Church Life, and Church Affairs.
If the Church in Cleveland is, as you say, a
true local church, in the mold of that defined by Watchman Nee, then so is every other church in that same mold. And they would also disagree with your contention that the "Church of Christ" denomination and the congregationalist Gospel Community Church are true local churches. if they are consistent. Given that perhaps you wish to change your vote and kick the Church in Cleveland to the curb also?
