Justification for One City-One Church dogma?

Denominations do not interpret as we do, because they are bound to modern concepts, and to say otherwise would be to deny their very existence. Remember these are historical facts, not opinions on scripture.

Sure you can. Your worst failure is not becoming another denomination, but mistreating, condemning, and dividing the body of Christ, which is far worse.

And if those Blendeds would take a minute to be humble and honest, they would realize that is why Lee was repenting.

A denomination is already a division in the body of Christ, so we cannot divide this further.

Lee's repentance was not for what you say it was. You've got a whole lot of confirmation bias happening there. There's a whole explanation about it here:

Why would Lee repent of a view, a belief, that he has staked his whole life and ministry on for decades.

As far as I can tell, he was repenting that the local churches did not live up to the standard.

The CBs exhibit a willingness to compromise the truth to avoid offending other believers. This Brother Lee would never do. ~ Lee would never avoid offending people where it concerns the truth.
