Why is Les Feldick independent from denominations?

Les explains that the study is informal and that various denominations are represented, but he does not try to temper or trumpet any particular organization. He says, "We are totally independent, and I like it that way," because independence gives him freedom to teach as he feels the Holy Spirit has instructed him. He is not there to run anyone else down or to disagree with them; instead, he opens the book and asks what does the book say? It does not matter what a denomination says, what any other group may say, or what he says—the thing that counts is what the book says.
