Default The Process of Moving On

Brothers and Sisters,

I came to this forum seeking aid from you in hopes of getting the girl I love to move on from the false teachings and doctrines of Witness Lee and his local church. However, I sense much bitterness in several of you. I don't know who or what this bitterness is directed at, but I assure you, there is no need for such feelings. As brother NeitherFirstnorLast said, we must strive to move forward in the Truth of God's Word. The truth that was found in the Lord's Recovery can't possibly be the Truth of the Word of God, no matter how they may try to say that it is, and I'm sure many of you would agree with that. However, there is not a need to also reject the so called "apostate denominational churches" just because they happen to bear the name of a particular denomination. From my own experience I can say that when it comes down to it, it does not matter what "denomination" a person happens to meet with. We are all united in Christ. This can be seen in many foundations for missionaries as well as "companies" (I lack the proper term at the moment) like World Vision.

Brothers and Sisters, there is much more that this forum can do other than bash on the teachings of Witness Lee. We can help each other to know God and His word more. For those of us outside the Lord's Recovery, that is what we must do. We strive to be more like Jesus so that we may shine to nonbelievers. Is that not so? Forgive me for generalizing (as well as for using "we" since I technically never went through this, but that is a superfluous detail), I know not everyone is focused on what is wrong with the local church rather than moving on from it, but we have to move on and help each other do so. Who knows? Perhaps we can help a few more brothers and sisters still in the Recovery...
