I think one example of hypocrisy is, to say "If you do it, it's bad; but when I do it, it's okay." That is arguably textbook double standard, and subjectivism run amok. Welcome to the LC fantasy factory.

As one of the FTTT trainers put it: If the local brothers would practice in this way to carry out their burden, it would be a hierarchy and control. But if this is practiced to carry out the ministry’s burden, it is not hierarchy or control.

The underlying message of that statement is that locally, brothers must adhere to what WL taught. For those involved with LSM, anything goes. Imagine if any local church dropped the practice of prophesying and went back to having a single speaker in meetings. The BB's would be up in arms about that. But for many of the meetings BB's go to, it's meetings where they are the speaker. Sorry to say, they are a bunch of hypocrites.
