John Darby left the Anglican Church and soon took over the leadership of the Plymouth Brethren movement. Though he condemned "the system" his whole life, it's amazing how much the Exclusive Brethren leadership structure duplicated the Anglican Church.

Witness Lee condemned the Catholic Church and all of Christianity his entire life, but it's amazing how much the Recovery leadership structure matches that of the Catholic Church.

Both Lee and the Pope enjoy similar elevated positions with a doctrine of infallibility to protect them from criticism within ranks. Whether a college of cardinals or the Blendeds, both are supported by a global network of sycophants who support their every word. Both have reduced member churches to franchises overseen by local managers loyal to headquarters. Both have proprietary printing presses for the movement. Whether a missalette or a HWFMR, both mandate unique liturgical structures and readings to be carried out in every meeting.
