Question: if you "take the lampstand" in a city on a certain location (e.g., Beirut "took the lampstand" in April 2014), shouldn't you know when the previous lampstand was removed? In Corinth, there is still a church there. What if they trace their origins to the apostles? How can you move in and "take the ground"?
Or Addis Abbaba? What if Christians have been meeting there continually since the Ethiopian Eunuch went home in Acts 8:26-40? He got baptised by Philip, which by all accounts was genuine, and Philip sent him on his way. No report of his going back to Jerusalem for "full time training". Nor any report of the lampstand leaving the place. So when did Addis Abbaba lose the lampstand? Why does LSM feel permission is granted to "take the ground there"? It doesn't really make sense to me, if you put a lampstand somewhere, if another has already been in place. You assume it is not, but why?
