The 3rd letter submitted by Brother Michael Young to the IA on Sept 3 2012 Part 20

4.8
God Saves when Man Repents

I wholeheartedly believe that it is God’s will and that it is due to His divine arrangement
that the Pr. YM Yang Incident has been allowed to happen in the true church. Although
we cannot fully understand God’s wonderful works at present time, but from the history
of the Israelites, His chosen people, we can come to understand that:

a. God has allowed the church to pass through this painful and difficult wilderness
because He wants to refine us and force us to reflect on the past, examine
ourselves, admit our mistakes and repent, and ask for God’s forgiveness.

b. Preacher YM Yang failed to comply with the existing IA TRC's (Truth Research
Committee) rules in how to share his interpretations of certain Bible verses that
have not been adopted by the TRC.

c. Elder Lin Yung Ji / the IA administration made a series of unbiblical mistakes in
its handling of the Pr. YM Yang Incident.

d. For this reason, both parties must sincerely reflect upon the past, admit their
respective mistakes and turn over a new leaf. God will surely forgive all parties
concerned and also the church, so that the true church will once again become a
spiritual body pleasing to God and able to fight the good fight for the Lord in the
last days.
