Drake, I believe you, and that highlights a problem.
In order to defend the LC system, one must be a little heartless. I know I was there too. When it came to protecting LSM and LC leadership, all members became *expendable*. That's just how it was.
But not so with the Lord Jesus.
Consider how compassionate He was with all those seeking God in that intolerable system in Jerusalem. He was the Good Shepherd who would leave the 99, just to care for the one lost ewe lamb. He was the Good Samaritan who would bind up the wounds of the downtrodden whom their leaders and trainers considered "not good material." He was the Door of the sheep for all those locked in oppressive legalistic systems, thinking all is well because that's all they knew, yet vulnerable to thieves and robbers who held them in fear.
