From our vantage point on the hillside we can only shake our heads at his delusion. I believe it is the same with the BBs.

As I've said before, Lee never understood his role in creating the current Local Church denomination. Every step of its construction was based as surely as he knew how on a verse or an interpretation of a verse. But just because a decree comes from Jerusalem and out of the Bible doesn't mean it's not religion...
