If you didn’t “know “ life” which really meant if you didn’t give your “ whole being” to the LSM way, you were in death. It was a great psychological tool to corral the troops- who wanted to be labeled DEATH , so you better get into LIFE- by going to all the trainings, buying all the books and messages, pray reading all the foot notes, being one with Bro Lee, participating in the new way, etc, etc. in the meetings, everyone was supposed to be in Life.

But Jesus said, I am the way, the life and the truth- no one comes to the Father but by me. Why was it then that the Life thing did not bring us to the Father? Why was the LC so devoid of a Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Life? We in the LC were totally misled by the LSM version of life. Modalism was definitely the practice- the processed triune god became our life to bring us into the LSM. Jesus mission was to bring us back to the Father, the One True God, that we could worship Him. WL/LSM brought us to a cultish dependency using the word Life as a hypnotic trigger. From what I read on various discussions, they are more into that hypnotic trance than ever, only now they are really lost in a time warp of continuing the selling and consuming the “messages” of a dead man.
Well, this may be. However, let's not swing the pendulum to the other extreme. That is, let's not throw out the importance of "life" then, right? "I am come that they might have life . . ." I'm not saying you are doing that exactly, but I've perceived an apparent tendency on this forum to get rid of "life" along with the proverbial "dirty bath water" of LC shenanigans.

"For me to live is Christ & to die is gain." "My life is hidden with God in Christ."
