First I’ll preface my following comments with this point. I do not have a personal axe to grind with Titus Chu. I benefitted from his fellowship.personally. Some things he said stayed with me since he spoke them.

The issue goes way back with activities involving Titus in the Far East before Brother Lees passing. He said some things and it caused some problems. Brother Lee loved Titus and made several attempts to bring Titus into the ministry with the other coworkers. But it seemed to many of the coworkers and the elders in the Far East and eventually Brother Lee to determine that Titus was doing his own thing without fellowship. A ministry without fellowship is a nonstarter. Eventually Brother Lee had to issue a warning that Titus Chu was not representing the Lords recovery. Not long before Brother Lees passing it came to his attention that Titus had indicated to those in his circle that once Brother Lee passed they would run things. Brother Lee observed that it seemed some were hoping for the hastening of his departure.

After Brother Lee died Titus Chu stepped up his activity worldwide still without fellowship. A closer look at Mansfield after the appointment of his proxy elders shows significant Mansfield local church funds being diverted to several of Titus’ projects throughout the region and in places such as Kampala Uganda. This taxed the saints in Mansfield greatly. Same happened in other churches which explains the unscriptural demand for tithing as a criterion to partake of the Lords table. These things and the others mentioned in #117 changed the standing of the local church. At that point, those who objected to all these things were told they should leave. Shenanigans like changing the locks and not opening the meeting hall for several weeks and significant amount of the church funds having been taken and being diverted to Titus ministry forced outside intervention. Titus, his coworker from Detroit, and the proxy elders demanded obedience to their authority. It would have been irresponsible and a dereliction of spiritual and moral duty to stand idly by. That in sum was the gist of the beef the blended brothers had with Titus.
