When the "trashing" of fellow Christians comes again and again, week after week from "the Ministry" (there's some in every HWFMR) and LC leaders (there's some in spoken messages every week at the FTTA and at conferences). And leaders at all levels won't consistently refute it, the saints don't stand a chance. I tried for ten years in my local church to get this addressed, and never got very far, other than an admission that it was happening and it shouldn't. At some point my wife and I realized we were being Don Quixotes in a losing battle. But, the Lord showed me that the recovery was collapsing, and I needed to get out to work in the ambulance station that serves the injured people, with myself as the first patient.
