Re: Double Standards
Why did Lee tell us that the Methodists and Baptists failed by starting churches and hospitals, to heal and educate? He told us, "That's not the mission of the church". Does anyone remember him saying this? (He was teaching us about the Glorious Church, untainted by the world).
Then we find out he started a company, run by his son, making Motor Homes for sale, funded with investment money from the LC "saints", and started, according to DR's testimony, with a young church brother who inherited a large sum of money and laid it at his feet. Dollar signs came into Lee's eyes and a "bleed the Egyptians" scheme was born - luxury motor homes.
How come Baptists and Methodists got critiqued for starting organizations, but Lee could run businesses on the side? Daystar was not the only one - there were chairs, coats, tennis rackets... finally Lee hit on standing orders, and a real money-making scheme stirred into life. My LC had boxes and boxes of the "rainbow booklets", which were ministry messages repackaged in booklet form.
