This is indeed worthy of it's own thread.

Cassidy has claimed that apostolic succession is a heresy and that LSM teaches that it is.

But we also know that Witness Lee considered himself the "Minister of the Age," which must mean he thought he was an apostle. LSM believes this as well. The Blended Brothers, who are arm-in-arm with and comprise some of the same people as LSM, are on record considering themselves "Brother Lee's continuation."

What is the difference between believing in apostolic succession and considering someone the continuation of the Minister of the Age? I would say that essentially there is no difference.

Since Cassidy considers apostolic succession heresy, I would say he has just called the Blended Brothers heretical.
