Run Max off. Lawsuits. Like being exalted. Run off Ingalls, Mallons, and others. Insist that your sexual predator son be the head of your ministry and direct how churches run their affairs.

In the initial post Igzy said, "Yet, clearly from their behavior they feel they cannot carry out their mission of preserving the principles unique to their movement without also preserving as pristine the reputations of their founders. "

Part of the preservation is minimizing of "brothers who were ran off". In recent messages I have heard them disingenously referred to as "heroes".

Character of former elders were bismirched in order to preserve reputations of the founders.

Can you say more when these "recent messages" were spoken, and who referred to who as heroes.

The messages I am referring to were given in 2013 by Ron Kangas at regional blending conferences. Did not say explicitly who the "heroes" are. An implication towards brothers who rose up in the past.
With the exception of Steve Isitt, brother Ron doesn't mention names. He refers to brothers in form of innuendo (Bill Mallon, Bill Freeman,etc). It's up to the listener to connect the dots.
