You believe the blended brothers took their control too far?
I'm not aware of whether or not those brothers wanted LSM to publish their work and I can understand if they did, and it was decided that it wasn't a representative of the ministry- how they could be denied that right. But, I also know there was a power struggle with real estate at hand, and can't help but think that was an issue in the decision as well.
But, if they wanted to publish their own work with another publisher, and still be an elder in a locality- that should have been fine, given they were writing sound Biblical teachings. There is nothing in the Bible that I'm aware of that would justify how far the BB's took the situation.
