Re: Jacob Howard: O Lord Three Times - The False Gospel of Witness Lee
I know this was taught and is also in print, but my experience (and it's just that, my personal experience) is that this is not a "prevalent" teaching that has seeped all through the LC. The fulltime serving ones who are on the college campuses don't go around just trying to get people to call "Oh Lord". That's not what the serving ones do and it's not what they tell the college students to do either. They teach the "sinners prayer" on the back of the Mystery of Human Life that involves repentance and confession of sin and belief. This is addressed at the beginning of the article where he acknowledges that the gospel is actually preached in the LC, and from what I've seen, typical gospel preaching is much more common than the "call 3x" gospel preaching.
I think the call 3x teaching is one of those things they should take out of print, and there may be some fanatics inside who will totally espouse this teaching, but in general I don't think most live by it.
I may be wrong though.
