Maybe I missed it, but I asked twice if poster's out here are saying the sister was raped, and neither time was the answer "yes."
Philip was acting the big shot and was sexually inappropriate when I was there but it was kept secret. I was gone by the time it came to light. But I've been on these forums for years, and if he ever did, I've never heard he rape a sister. If he did I'm sorry for that sister(s), but if so she should have reported it to the law then and there.
But if it did happen, and the sister(s) kept quiet, I understand. We can't talk freely about sex out here on this forum, much, much, much less in the LC environment. That is very clear with John I. The sister's claim was dealt with very hush-hushly. Even when he confronted it, and the offense wasn't dealt with, John didn't follow Matthew 18, and announce it to the church. Talking about sex is anathema to Christians in general. I can't even mention spiritual h******ts out here, for some weird strange reason.

We've seen claims of rape in the MeToo movement, but long after the statue of limitation has passed. Perhaps that will happen with sisters in the LC. Maybe. Maybe not. Time will tell. Look how long it took for Watchman Nee's rapes to come out. Those three sisters didn't report it either. Why, bro Drake, why?

I might be wrong, I don't know, but I think speaking the truth pleases the Lord.
Thanks for your reply bro Drake. You're a peach.
