How can we be accountable for what we did not know? We as young believers are not responsible for being deceived by Christian ministers any more than a child is responsible for being abused. As long as LSM was in complete control of all information, they had a semblance of prosperity. Today, with information so readily available, LSM has had to court folks like Hank HandyGraft of CRI to maintain their credibility as Christians.

Didn't a lot of people leave the Lord's Recovery in the 1980's? (I'm talking about a loss in membership, not the few famous leaders we're all familiar with.) Why did so many leave, if no one knew anything?
