Terry, I'm not sure what you are saying. Sherman Robertson, too, thinks he is an accepting brother; Ron Kangas thinks he also, as do all the blending brothers, leaders and the saints... So accepting of others!

Until they are tested... Then their obsession appears, in some form, to some degree, and in both "great or small"; family member or elder; Ron Kangas or Sherman Robertson; Joel Kennon, Richard Lee, James Lee, Les Cites, Dan Towle...These and more have been my encounters. One will find out by experience, in departing further away from "the party line", the wickedness of the LC leaders' mindset that has infected many in the congregation of LC saints, even my son who rarely attends, has attacked me; even my "friend-brother" who had been backslidden for years rose up to mercilessly assail me for my writings; even the most gentle, silent, small LC brother condemned me, who had been calling me once in a while till he heard from an "elder', that I am "against the ministry". There must be so many other cases among the saints in the churches where elders and saints have become thus infected in allowing the ministry to become the dividing line.

The people I have mentioned, and more (Paul Hon is one), earnestly charge me or encourage me to just "go to the brothers" and do what they tell me, then all will be well. I have been told several times to "just drop your concerns".

But.... "As long as you think that you are right about what you put on the internet and that the problem is that the brothers from the local churches are not open, this is a proof that you have no light on
this matter. And until you get light, you have no way with the Lord. Without light, you will never be able to come back to the Lord's recovery. Because you just don't know how to handle this situation. You are completely in the dark." - Sherman

And, as long as this is the refrain, I will continue to address the problem and the need: "Repentance unto LIFE", and light.

Note: My point is that this mindset is widespread and runs deepest and is most lethal among leaders, beginning with the blending brothers, as the posts on this thread attest
