The Brethren Leaders Divided

The Recovery often mentions the Brethren, so I did some research on Wikipedia. I found this interesting the original brethren split due to differences in eschatology. John Nelson Darby believed in a secret rapture while Benjamin Newton believed that the church would go through the tribulation (non-secret rapture).

Here is the Wikipedia page on Benjamin Newton. Found this all to be very interesting given the influences the brethren had on Nee & Lee.

The Recovery is the fruit of “division” but often claims it’s not divisive.
