Default Re: MERGED THREAD: Leaders of the Lord's Recovery

I find it extremely interesting and quite subtle that James Lee does not go on and finish Paul's letter to the Corinthians. In fact not only does Paul make it abundantly clear what "sins" will not be tolerated in light of the Kingdom of God but also hands over a brother to Satan for the destruction of his flesh because this brother continued to practice such sin. He also warned "The Body" against "tolerating" such behavior and its impact upon their spiritual health. Is this in fact the degraded situation in the LSMLC today? Fortunately, the Corinthians including this brother apparently repented and were restored because of Paul's "strong" word. James Lee and the leaders of the LSMLC need to move on to II Corinthians and make a full repentance. Paul presents the crucified Christ as the solution and not an excuse. No where in both letters does Paul encourage the believers to "get out of their mind" and "just take life". As a matter of fact he encourages them to use their minds to examine the contrast between the crucified Christ and their current living. Its time to get into your mind to examine your heart and then use your mouth to repent dear blendeds!
