I feel weird in these teaching. So, let us discuss the truth about this.

What is it about the matter of a corporate reconciliation to God that makes you feel weird? I haven't done a verse count, but a large portion of the verses in the OT & NT regarding God's salvation of man actually refer not to the individual but to His corporate people.
Regarding the teaching, the matter spoken of regarding salvation and reconciliation is not discussing the matter of believers being reconciled to one another specifically, but being reconciled to God. The point is bringing out that in an experiential way, God has judicially redeemed and is reconciling each individual to Himself (2 Cor. 5:18; Rom. 5:10). From the divine perspective, however, God has judicially redeemed and is continually reconciling not only all of the elect to Himself but even the entire universe (2 Cor. 5:19; Col. 1:20 cf. Jn. 3:16; 1:29).
@Truthseeker, do you meet with the LCs or are you just still in fellowship with some believers who do? Interesting that you'd know the churches were in that particular HWMR
