Default Helpful or Damaging?

Hi All,

Sorry I seem to be going weeks without having opportunities to view the forum, I hope I'm not to out of touch with the current topics....

I did want to clarify, the book I was refering to was "The Secret of Experiencing Christ," a book that I used as a reference point when I first began to consider if the LC was "cultic." I found this book very helpful in defining how to have a living, vital relationship with our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

This book and others, like, "The Experience of Life" are not discussed much on this forum as others, such as "The Economy of God," have others had help in being a Christian from these books?

I am not negating the warped direction that LSM et al has taken and not championing the cause of Witness Lee; only looking for others thoughts concerning the benefits/hardships that have been encountered during their practice of the local churches and the ministry that was studied during this time.

Nell,

I think that maybe rephrasing your comments might help me and others to understand where you are coming from.

Grace to all,

Shawn
