Though addressed to ZNP, I'll take it as it relates to my own experience. The matter of stumbling goes both ways. Not one way. However in the local churches that is not always so. I've been in many meetings where the prophesying portion was used as a platform to put down non-LSM affiliated assemblies. Months after Renton took the ground as a LSM-affiliated locality several brothers came to my home saying I'm welcome as long as I never made Steve Isitt an issue. I never did. Nor have I made John Ingalls or any other brother an issue. If brothers don't have the capacity for an objective discussion, then it's best to keep opinions to myself.
I have never used any meeting nor anyone's home other than my own as a venue to speak content I post on this forum. This is a place for discussions. If people are stumbled by the content I post, they shouldn't be here.
