It's precisely because they shoot the people who come to them with problems, that issues are then created, because no one gets real care or healing.

The local church literally creates their own opposers with their own hands. And they think they are the "center of God's move"? It's ridiculous.

It seems many in the lead got there out 10-20 years of loyalty and apt to parrot whatever LSM is pushing while not able to lead or shepherd congregations their in. Many come across as church managers or hirelings rather than shepherds. Attitude is we set to the meeting time, we're here and those who want to be here are here. It's rare to go and visit ones who have been inactive for periods of time.
Concerns are a LC taboo. There may be some elders/co-workers that wll listen to a degree, but any expectation one might have for a "responsible one" to take action, an elder/co-worker may suddenly experience a bout of thin skin. Taking exception to being told what to do.
And how do opposers get created? Many thinking the same thing. No one likes being fed a lie to be accepted as truth or to have their personal liberty undermined who they can or cannot receive.
