Take the JW's for example. Most of Christianity has a negative perception of JW's, and look at them, they are still growing around the world.. one of the fastest growing religion, in the world in modern times.
- definitely not popular in Christianity
- founder dead, still putting out the same old material
- yet the fastest growing religion in modern times. Why? Because they are doing things which denominations do not like to do - e.g. door knocking, tract/bible distribution. They are doing something right in terms of how they can grow so much.
The example of JW disproves much of what you are saying. Definitely possible for the local churches to grow in the same way. In fact it's a shame to see so many JW advertising on the street and people door knocking, there are many churches in the area -where are the Christians?

If you are now comparing the LSM/LC's to a cult like the JW's ...
Then there is no reason why they should not have growth!
