If I May, I Would Like to Share an Experience With You, and Get Your Thoughts on It?
Question by : If I may, I would like to share an experience with you, and get your thoughts on it? If you’ve noticed me before, you probably already know that I am a Christian =)…and if you’ve noticed me recently, it can’t have escaped your notice that I am staunchly pro-life. Here is my story: About 19 years ago, I was a volunteer in an abortion alternative center in Phoenix, AZ called “The With Child Center”. I truly felt that I was helping to save the lives of unborn babies…and perhaps I was. But that isn’t the point. About that time, my fifteen year old daughter found herself unable to deny her young hormones…and the result was that she came to me when she realized that she had missed her second period, to tell me what had happened. I had taken her with me to the Center before, so she knew what I did there, and she was terrified that I would be angry with her. I told her that we needed to do a test to be sure, but that if she w ...

“The Lord’s Recovery”/”Local Church Movement”. Thoughts? Experiences?
Question by Bauer523: “The Lord’s Recovery”/”Local church movement”. Thoughts? Experiences? A very different sect of Christianity that follows Witness Lee’s teachings. Some call them a cult. They are also known as “Christians on Campus” at many colleges. Anyone have any experience with this group they would like to share? Best answer: Answer by Persian Melon…Nope ! Answer by JudiBugIn my opinion, this does have a cult ring to it. For one thing they’ve adopted their own terms or phrases and to me those phrases ring rather empty. I am of the firm conviction that there is nothing that can beat the word of God as is. You can’t better on it. Read more... ...
The Local Church Movement (Aka “the Lord’s Recovery”). Anyone Heard of Them? Thoughts?
Question by Bauer523: The Local Church movement (aka “The Lord’s Recovery”). Anyone heard of them? Thoughts? For a year now I have been doing a bible study on campus at my college with 2 guys associated with this “local church movement”. They use a version of the bible called The Recovery Version that has commentary written by Witness Lee. They also pray differently than other Christians and continually overstress various points in study, which they consider “lost truths”, such as: “God’s economy”, the human spirit, Christian “overcomers”, oneness, “exercising your spirit”, and “calling on the name of the Lord”. They also believe some things I have a problem with, like they believe Jesus IS the Father and the Spirit. Sorta pentacostal-like in their view of the trinity. They also knock Christian denominations and seem to believe God is only working through their local church movement. Read mo ...
