Mr.Joshua Daniel
Laymen's Evangelical Fellowship International is a Christian organisation founded in 1935 in MadrasIndia by N. Daniel (1897-1963), a former mathematics teacher at McLaurin High School in Kakinada, and currently headed by his son Joshua Daniel (born February 1928).
Headquartered at 9-B Nungambakkam High Rd in Chennai, the Fellowship has centres in many parts of India, with the majority in the states of Tamil Nadu and Andhra Pradesh:

Additionally, it has "tentmaker" (supported through their own work rather than by the organisation) missionaries in various countries such asCyprusGuyanaVenezuela and the Brixton area of London and radio broadcasts named "The Lord's Challenge" from Guyana, United KingdomFrance-ParisGermanyAustralia and parts of the United States (Buffalo, New YorkAtlanta, GeorgiaCouncil Bluffs, IowaDetroit, Michigan). Since January 2007, a weekly series of half-hour television broadcasts with same title ("The Lord's Challenge") as the radio broadcasts have been going forth from Novi, MI; a RealVideo copy of each broadcast is available for play or download from the organisation's website.
The Fellowship also publishes a daily-devotional guide Faith Is The Victory which contains 365 messages by N. Daniel and Joshua Daniel, as well as Indian editions of a magazine Christ Is Victor, both printed at its retreat grounds in Sirunium (Tiruvallur District, metropolitan). Other editions of the magazine are printed abroad (UK, US, ...).
Live Webcast of Retreats (including Annual Retreat, generally in May of the year) has been available from May 2008.

Please also visit the LEF whistleblower website for the truth about LEF activities, what happens to the money it collects, the abuses perpetrated by Joshua Daniel, other members of his family, and his henchmen. Read also accounts of people who hav suffered under this noxious regime. Steer very clear of LEF, and keep your vulnerable children and young people well away from it.

You're right but he is not accountable for people following him instead of following God. I'm from the same LEF.

Joshua Daniel is certainly responsible for leading people astray. Equally the misled people are responsible for choosing to follow him, once they realise how cultish LEF is, and what hirelings the Daniel family are.

God tells us to separate ourselves from evil, just as he tells us is not to commit evil.

Have you separated yourself fom LEF in response to God's command? A littlr leaven leavens the whole lump.....

You shew real ignorance of the Scriptures. You might be able to quote chapter and verse but have no understanding. A true Christian is not to slander. Obviously the anti-LEF poster believes that LEF in general and Daniel family in particular are guilty of misleading people and using the offerings from mostly poor to live in the U.S. and send their children to universities. They actually used the money for "G-d's Work" to leave India and become middle-class americans. I know this from first-hand observation. There has been and is presently little or no ministry by Joshua Daniel or the rest of the Daniel family within the North American continent. There was a small congregation in Canada that someone else had built up that the arrogance of the Daniel family destroyed. "Dis (sic) church" cannot continue to (dys)function without people warning others. And this does NOT equate to a rebellion against G-d because you don't like what you hear. There is no praise to be given when the words they have never strayed from have injured and misled many. You have been taught to be fools as if this is the same as holiness.
