But if you see from different angle some of the term is divisive
God's ordained way : Brother's Lee's way of doing things.
Restricted divine life : Be restricted, it's for the protection.
One city one church : Oh we have the light of the true ground of the church, don't go elsewhere!
The Lord's recovery : Reformation is good but not enough, the Lord is still doing His recovery. This is the Lord's Recovery. Basically, it's us.
Ministry of the age : There is only one ministry, don't go to any other ministry than LSM
Sometimes I doubt these terms are actually good, because they distance ourselves from other saints in other denominations.

Oh yes, and there are other benefits too, for the 'ecosystem' of the LRM. Being 'restricted' limits your ability to grow to maturity, being ever dependant on WL's interpretations, instead of learning to be lead by God himself.
You aren't able to benefit from the teachings and insights of others, in the body of Christ, some of which are sorely needed in the LC.
It keeps you so cloistered within its system so that you are unable to make any assessment of what you are taught, or of how you are treated within. Meaning you are forced to accept everything they put on you, weather good or harmful. Yes, it opens the way to remove protections over your life that the law of the land provides. Whenever that happens, it's always bad.
