Default Re: What have we learned?

Ohio,

You are where I was a few years ago. I had plenty of Bible knowledge before the LRC. But they gave me more. And I have now learned that some of it was bogus.

Lee taught many correct things because he taught something on everything and the core of the LRC is evangelical. But, as you have noted, there is now found to be a lot of leavened teachings in there. The answer is not to toss out all of things Lee taught. It is to be open to the finding of the errors — the leaven — in them.

No, Lee did not err to say that John penned Revelation. And it is about signs. But from almost the beginning of that training were original and unoriginal things taught that were not correct. If you have a good background, it is easier to toss out any thought of Lee and go back to the old sources and then see if anything he taught can be added back.

But you are in a different place. Unless you want to be almost without foundation in Christian faith, you have to leave what you learned from Lee around you as you become clear on what to purge and what to keep. I do not envy your position. It is not simple. It would be so much easier to start by just dumping Lee. But you need a strong base and it would appear that you did not have that before the LRC.

Don't let anyone, me included, tell you how you have to go about dealing with the LRC. It is your path. We might or might not be helpful.
