I know there are others such as I was, meeting with the local churches but opposing. What exactly is the opposing that makes them classified as an oppose?
Opposing meeting with the local churches? No. If one opposed meeting with the local churches, they wouldn't be meeting with the local churches in the first place.
Opposing LSM publications? No. If one opposed LSM publications, there's something called free will one my exercise to read or not to read LSM publications.
Perhaps there's something called practices. One may hold an opinion opposing another opinion.
For myself I oppose double standards, lies being passed off as truth, and truth being dismissed as lies or at best, rumors.
Over a seven year period where I met with the church In Bellevue, I was already an oppose by their application of the word oppose several years prior to moving to Washington state. The very moment I read Fermentation of the
Present Rebellion
, I was an opposer. I opposed lies being passed off as truth as was the case in this book. I opposed brothers being misrepresented. Though meeting with the locality, no problem. Reading LSM publications, there was generally no problem.
When it came to meeting with another locality I was asked not to make Steve Isitt an issue. In my thoughts, I just laughed. The entire time I met with Bellevue I never made FOTPR or John Ingalls an issue....
