[LIST=1][*]The doctrine of the local ground is not taught prescriptively in the Bible.

This exposes the hypocrisy because with regards to head covering the teaching of LSM is that if the Bible doesn't prescribe it, then neither should we. Yet they have elevated "One church one city" to the level of "the faith".

Clearly if the teaching is erroneous it has led to division the minute they created another sect.

However, the strife and division can be directly linked to various sins (Daystar, PL, etc). So to prove that those sins were part and parcel with this teaching you would have to argue that WL taught this with the intention of establishing a sect. Therefore that would make this teaching the first sin, just as James says.
