Default False "International Coordunation"

"In a number of ways, the turmoil of 1977, which of course took place while Brother Lee was still with us, and that of 2006, were quite similar. In particular, during both turmoils the brothers involved stressed the need for a kind of international coordination among the churches. As Brother Lee makes very clear in his comments below, this kind of “oneness” (the quotation marks are Brother Lee’s) was, in 1977, fully against the truth. We may add, so it was in 2006 when it was promoted by the Blended Brothers, years after our brother had gone to be with the Lord.

Among us these past few years there have been indications that we too do not see the significance of Christ’s headship. An effort was made to organize all the churches in the recovery under an international coordination. It may seem wonderful to have such “oneness,” but actually this was a subtlety to gain control of all the churches, thus taking the headship away from Christ and putting it in the hands of the ‘coordinator,’ who in essence would be a pope. Such a hierarchical setup robs the saints of their personal contact with God.
