Ironside's comments on the Brethren need to be read by all in the LRC as well as those who have left..

For many of us in the LC's for years, Ironside's book Historical Sketch of the Brethren Movement provided the first chink in the armor of Witness Lee's distorted and misguided views of church history and his own Recovery movement.

The common LC misconceptions that the Plymouth Brethren were typified by the Church in Philadelphia in Revelation chapter 3, and that John Darby was the MOTA (Minister of the Age) predecessor to Watchman Nee in China seemed to vaporize in the light of day as one examines the true facts of history.
