Have you ever read the book – “Rethinking our work” by WN? If you did not read, I have to be surprised how you can criticize the ground of locality without knowing what locality is as defined by its first proponent.

Dear Gubei,
I do not feel obligated to answer every question you have. Many of them can be answered simply by reading my posts more carefully.
I have read
The Normal Christian Church Life (
Concerning Our Mission) and
Further Talks on the Church Life, by WN. I have also read just about every book WL wrote about the matter, including
The Practical Expression of the Church and
The Genuine Ground of Oneness. I have heard of the book you speak of, but I believe it is titled
Rethinking the Work, not
Rethinking Our Work. I haven't read that title. I also was in the LC movement for years and heard and read many other message on the local ground.
Finally, I've probably read the NT as much as you have. Please stop acting as if I haven't. I realize once you've come under the sway of WN/WL it's hard to see the NT any other way that the way they told you to see it. This is in part because WL was very good at teaching that thinking differently from them is rebellious, so followers are fearful of doing so. WL was also very good at poisoning any well other than his own, while ascribing blessed status to those who drink from his alone.
