Is the "One Trumpet" doctrine aligned with the fellowship of the apostles

The distinction seems to be maintained as evidenced by these quotes:

However, the one publication should not become the basis of our accepting or rejecting any persons in the communion of faith or in the fellowship of the churches; it should not be insisted on as an item of the faith. If any are not inclined to be restricted in one publication, these ones are still our brothers; they are still in the genuine local churches.

But being restricted in the one publication does not mean, and has never meant, that individual churches are not free to produce and distribute materials for their local needs.

If any are not inclined to be restricted in one publication, these ones are still our brothers; they are still in the genuine local churches.

Whether or not a certain church takes the ministry does not decide whether that church is a genuine local church

this ministry cannot allow anyone to pretend to be in it and yet still say something different. This does not mean that I ask you to stay away from your local church or that your local church is no longer a local church.

I do not control any church. All the saints who have left the denominations, the divisive sects, and stand on the proper ground are a local church in their locality. They can express their opinions, but they may have nothing to do with this ministry.

I am not talking about the churches, I am talking about the ministry. The ministry is one thing, and the churches are another thing.

To say that the ministry cannot depend upon a certain church does not mean that that church has been cut off from being a local church. It is still a local church,

Furthermore, the quotations prove that many of the things said about the LC are incorrect - the LC does not control the churches, people are not excluded for not following the ministry, and each locality is free to produce materials for their local needs.
