Phil,
I suggest you reread the sections of the sp boards beginning with "The Local Church Movement of Witness Lee" through and including "The RC Organization is the True Church." Pay particular attention to the posts of Jim Moran, Kathy, and Gold. Then, go to Moran's website and read some of the testimonials about the Local Church Movement.
I asked Gold about his denomination. He said he is no denomination. Yet, I have seen him defend the Local Church Movement and, as far as I can see, espouse its ideals. Does this mean that he is or isn't a member of this 'denomination'? (I am using the word 'denomination' loosely here.) This is particularly confusing for me, especially based on the accusations about this movement.
I would think that someone who defends a movement, uses its ideas to respond to questions, and espouses its ideals is a member of the movement.
Hence, my 'duck' wisdom.....
Quack! :)
