Default Re: Nee and the Brethren - a Broken Relationship

On this forum I know Ohio and I have covered it before and Nigel Tomes wrote an article on Nee's relationship with the EB. As I understood Nee visited the saints at Honor Oak where Sparks fellowshipped and as a result became Personna Non Grata by the EB.
The EB are far from extinct. They've just divided so many times since the 1840's. The community church where I fellowship now, the pastor was raised in the EB. Around 1990 he became personna non grata. So when saints leave the EB sect, he usually sought out. In speaking with him the EB is no different from the recovery movement. It's terminology that's different. The recovery use "the local ground". The EB terminology for "the local ground" is "the one place".
