Default Re: Poor, poor Christianity...

It's ironic. When I was in because Lee mention Darby I bought the whole set of Darby's Synopsis Of The Books Of The Bible.

I WAS reading them in private. But when I mentioned it at a lunch table all the brothers condemned me for it, and were literally crossing their fingers in the shape of a cross like they were demonic.

I was flummoxed. After all, Lee spoke highly of the Brethren & Darby.

But that wasn't the worst thing that happen because of my reading habits. I was reading Lee.

And when "The Flow of Oneness" came down from Anaheim, that Lee was the apostle, oracle, and authority of God on the earth, I was using Lee's books to counter that claim.

Then the lead elder, Mel Porter, accused me of "using Lee's works to destroy Lee's works."

This didn't make any sense to me at all. To be honest, it completely blew my mind. From that point on the local church didn't make any sense to me.

Darby was bad, William Law - The Spirit of Love - was bad (another story), and even Lee was bad.

Clearly, the LC had become Laodicea. And that was before the blended brothers.
