Drake, please stop preaching to us like we're "new ones". Most of us have been around ya know, and didn't just fall off the Local Church of Witness Lee turnip truck. We all can recite these LC/Living Stream talking points in our sleep.
"Though anyone can teach, preach and publish the divine truths"? Really? Who's the "anyone" you speak of here? Please be specific. Also, please relate this to what is practiced in the Local Church, since that is the theme of this thread, and indeed the the theme of this forum. Forget about John Piper. Forget about Zondervan. They are poor, poor Christianity. Stick to the subject at hand.

One publication is not a statement about what is to be read.... but about the mission of what will be published.

What's the practical difference in the Local Church? What is published by Living Stream is what is to be read by the members - both at home and in the meetings. NO OTHER PUBLICATIONS ARE ALLOWED. PERIOD. Those Local Churches that read from other publications are quickly "quarantined" and the elders of those churches vilified and called "rebellious", "evil ones" and "destroyers of the divine building". This is why The Local Church is commonly known as "The Local Church of Witness Lee" - They only publish, disseminate, promote and read the teachings of Witness Lee. (and a minute amount of the teachings of Watchman Nee)
