I think you missed the point of my thread. While reading some of Myer's stories, I was reminded of that. Perhaps coming from the GLA, I was addressing another, possibly unique, frustration hindering many of us.
For years we heard TC's views in the aftermath of the "storms" which seemed to frequent those closest to the "epicenter" of the Recovery. I heard hundreds of stories from TC about brothers' failures since the early days in Taiwan. Every story assigned blame and shortcomings to those once working close to WL. Never once did TC ever credit WL with an iota of responsibility for the "storms."
After John Ingalls was mercilessly and publicly condemned as a conniving rebel, TC often told us how tragic it was that brother Ingalls
"missed his opportunity to continue to labor with WL and learn so much from him.
What a shame that Ingalls would spend time fault-finding the Lord's servant, when there was so much we needed to learn before the Lord." Via TC's explanations of Recovery storms, all GLA brothers were trained to forever hold WL in the highest honor, all the while relegating culpability to others.
As I said, I was reminded of this matter while reading the latest chapter.
It's not a big deal, my friend. Perhaps John Myer was also concerned about retaliations by the parties involved. That's also a good reason. Personally I would not care for a visit from representatives from Anaheim or Cleveland either.
