Couple points here.
Firstly,
Drake, is it not hypocritical to ascribe to a policy which condemns the writings of all gifts from the Head to His body, except for Nee, Lee, and the Blended We? Have not LSM LC's ditched "
ALL footnotes and commentaries" except those sanctioned in the Rec. Version and the
HWfMR?
Secondly, does not the church which is His body consider the writings of scripture alone as "
The Holy Word of God," so that it alone could be considered the source of the "
pure milk of the word"?
To receive the ministry of the "
post-apostolic-age" apostles, prophets, evangelists, shepherds, and teachers (
the Ephesians 4.11 "gifts") as the "
pure milk of the word" is frighteningly dangerous. That alone is the defining characteristic of 2 millennia of cults and aberrant sects.
