Re: 1978 letter from Boston area to WL

Re: 1978 letter from Boston area to WL

Thanks, but the LC Brother did not know what was in the letter written to WL. There is one more brother I know who signed it so I can try to contact him. I know about the tape and what went on there...

Re: a chilling discovery?

Thanks for sharing, I knew Bill Freeman and enjoyed his ministry. I still have a lot of his messages on tape. I was very sad to find out that he was told to stop his ministry. Although I was never...

Re: What do you think?

I am very thankful to the Lord for all the responses to my post. What motivated me to write was a deep need of fellowship and the result is a deep exercise to hear our Lord’s voice and follow Him. I...

Re: What do you think?

Thanks Kyle, when I saw my peers and even younger brothers make it to the top, I realized that if I followed their example to embrace all of WL’s ministry I may have also had a chance, but I had too...

Re: What do you think?

Thanks Jo, the oneness I was referring to is the oneness in the New Testament that the Lord Jesus prayed for in John 17 and what Paul said we should endeavor to keep in Ephesians 4:3. Perhaps you...

Re: a chilling discovery?

My experience in studying God’s word is the same Brother! When I come to the Lord in his word I feel as though I know nothing at times. Yes God is faithful to open our understanding (Luke 24:27,32)...

Re: What do you think?

You are right about fear of leaving. There is also fear of not being led astray. I do trust the Lord, but not myself.

Re: What do you think?

Thanks Brother, it is about Him. Since I am sure it was the Lord who led me to meet with the LC based on principles of oneness I saw in the Bible I believe it will be the Good Shepherd (John 9-10)...

Re: a chilling discovery?

I am still involved in gathering with the LC and one of the things that grieves my heart is this saying they have that “We have the interpreted word”. John 16:13 makes clear that it is the Holy...

What do you think?

I have spent most of my life in the LC. Around 1978 a dear brother left us and sent a letter to explain. We were told by the leading brothers that this was a great offense to the body of Christ and...

Re: Pulled in Two Directions

To me the most important thing is our relationship with the Lord and how we convey that among the Lord’s people no mater where we meet. I like what you said and can relate to you at this time.

Re: How do you leave without making a scene?

I would recommend that you both begin to pray together, first to be assured it is God leading you. This is very important because Satan will attack. Then ask the Lord to open the way for you. If it...
