The 3rd letter submitted by Brother Michael Young to the IA on Sept 3 2012 Part 2

I. An Abstract

It is unfortunate and a great pity that Preacher Yuh Ming Yang’s positions as IA preacher and IA EXCO member were terminated on March, 24 2012. During this turbulent period, it is inevitable that many church members will speculate and discuss questions such as:
1) what have actually happened?
2) How did the IA handle this matter?
3) How can improvements be made to the church so that it will not repeat the same mistakes and be harmed once again?...and so on.

As many are going about discussing these questions out of their zeal and love for the church, I thought I may use real examples to examine the present-day IA’s
1) organizational structure,
2) modes of operation, and
3) efficiencies and effects of the current administration.

Having worked with Elder Jung Ji Lin and the IA Executive Committee for 29 months (April 2010–Sept 2012) over the incident of Preacher Yuh Ming Yang (the Pr. YM Incident), I have discovered that the administrative deficiencies of the IA have caused the true church
1) to lose its most precious “truth” and “truthfulness”, and
2) thus unable to distinguish right from wrong in its handling of the Pr. YM Incident.

It is hoped that the first-hand information provided in this report can be helpful in any discussion and resolution of these serious issues.

Regardless of how the Pr. YM Incident subsequently unfolds, every member ought to believe that the TJC is the household of God. Since God permitted this Incident to happen in His household, God must have His wonderful purposes. It may be that, through this Incident, God wants church members to show greater care and concern for the IA and to understand better how the IA operates, so that through this lesson and setback, the church may
1) examine herself, repent, improve, grow and
2) eventually become “true”, more mature, and fit for the Lord’s use.
