  1. these type of writings freak me out. i love the Lord and i truly hope if he needs to say soemthing to me as His beloved child, he will not need e-mail systems or MOG or WOG or have a title bestowed on them by "whatever" is out there. that is me. you know dot if it makes you happy and doesnt freak you out do it .
  2. I do not know what level of education your writing this page for, I can tell you most higher education lit courses focus on cohesiveness of your presentation of your ideal, NOT the ideal . institute of learning are not about a right and wrong ideas but rather how you communcate your thesis. (not to say it is a good idea on how to suck up to a certain professor at times to get through the credit hours lol) my angle was one of understanding how you say, what you say, aand it is contrdictory to say the least. and it doesnt comunicate or present as a strong paper. are you looking for a grade ? Your teacher will not question your ideals but rather ask you to define them , that is the goal of higher education. the paper is a learning tool to help you communicate your idea better.. when one has to explain and readdress and add on does that not indicate a fuzzy presentation in and of itself? as far as your position i also have no comment most will write their constitution at will... and often it effects few other than their own self. unless written in such a compelling manner to strike up inquiry. this is what your teacher is trying to help you learn about you as a student and for you as a student . on a more personal less academic stance. no i do not believe "every human is a part of me" dear God that would indeed send me over the edge of life itself.
  3. you say "I will embrace the talents ( by the way you still have several errors in punctuation and spelling just saying) skills, ambition etc....of those working towards the common good(as YOU define common good only) then claim to see with a spiritual eye and understanding. ok so what happens to your constitution whe you engage or meet a. those who do not share your ideal of what is "common good"? Do they have any talents or skills or ambitions you could expand your constitution with or not? You say in the previous paragrah you will allow new ideas etc.... yet is this possible when you apply the last paragrah?

    i learned this in twi,,,, not everything is an attack from the devil ya know? it was insane . to me if you play with a very sharp razor odds are your skin will be cut. I think it made many into paranoid busy bodies . ha do not worry that you cant pay your bills or feed and get insurance for your children because you went to another advance class again to stay "sharp". God will cover. then when the kid needs medical care or the school complains the kid is to sleepy in school cause your running the class this week and is woken up all night ... that must be the devil it was like we learned to hate people because the unbelievers were the devil himself after awhile. unbeliever ebing anyone who isnt "standing" in the ministry. it was nuts
  5. the armour he is speaking of was worn by the soliders who may not have been the most popular people to the new followers of christ and they were probably currupt so how does one fight evil like that? to me this verse is pretty simple the truth would be it self "the truth" etc... he used the armour ideal because everyone knew of that then. also to be a soldier and that is a fight etc... the "evil day" to me is not all about today greater evil days are coming for some i believe.
  6. so in June the dogs of war will bark ? dogs been barking for a while now did you forget? nothing specific ?

    I had a twig leader in the 90's who had to talk to her "leader" and several others before she took her kid in for stitches, I didnt like that at all i was thinking where is the common sense ? I think some people think they had magic powers and of course the ones in higher positions had even more magic to make the world just go away and reality far far away. i do believe in prayer but i also believe common sense has a reason . and ya know where is that "lock box when this stuff is going on in a manner of speaking this is exactly how people where injured and gossip got ahold of many situations. when i threw my husband out he called ohio and demanded he speak to the leaders (to what tell me not to do it? I laughed at him) he told me the way corps had me on their list now and the situation was being prayed for. so a few days later i was marked and avoided . come on.

    Dear God

    Dear God, Will the evil machines called vacums by mom be nicer?
  9. sorry i do not take orders. As far as Hannah God the message is a constant that God loves us no doubt about it in my thinking. I do not play the game of who is who in the storys of the bible or indeed in the very body of christ the fact is God is LOVE. no surprise for me. are you saying be bitter and all your dreams will come true just look at Hannah? yeah good luck with that .the thing about bitterness is it really only bothers those who taste it doesnt it? and the thing about wrath it really only tears up those who want to go for that type of thinking i promise you VPW is NOT getting hurt because someone trashes him on a web site decades after he died. so who is this helping? who is it hurting? well from the cries and victims here i think it answers itself enough.
  10. everyone is a victim today more than ever it is popular to wear your wounds as a badge to hurt others. we all can think of the sad tale of the time that went so bad for somone it has to be told and retold and retold for zero profit only more bitterness and strife continues to spin off making more victims. this is what i know the holy bible says to stop being a liar, to tell the truth to one another. does that mean tell all? I think not again where is the love in telling a stale old crusty wound like a scab that will never heal? the holy scripture says a merry heart is medicine not a wounded bleeding stabbing bitter heart. carry what you chose in life. as far as the sheep story by chockfull that was written to isreal and they are not son and daughters of God they were servants, no He doesnt love them less , they lived under the law they are not sons and daughters times changed with Jesus we are not sheep we are not to be compared to what God displyed for them things changed with the grace of Jesus Christ and the power of HOLY Spirt within. and that is why and how the bible is used to wound and hurt people. but as you deny and not me and well i have a good reason and purpose for hurting others with my own pain.. remember above all, God hears your words and all will stand accountable for them before the very throne of Jesus Christ, i pray i truly pray i can and will use my words for wisdom not bitter and defeat.
  11. I do not think that is true about the grass dying if you step on it in the winter. We had cows when i was a kid and they went out doors and walked around on the grass all winter, come spring they always had grass to eat on the ground, no one seeded it it just grew back on its own. a cow weighs about a 1/2 ton if that doesnt leave hoof prints in the spring nothing will and i played in the pasture and never saw any in the spring. yet plenty of grass grew every year.
  12. with fitted sheets it is important if you tuck in your blankets and/or have a bed skirt for the bed to look tight and neat. lesson you have two pieces of elastic around the sheet , one is shorterthan the other. the short side go across the top and bottom of the bed the longer elastic goes along the sides of the bed. you can either check the elastic or look after you put it on the bed and see if the sides of the mattress are peeking out. why check so the entire mattress will be covered by cloth. it saves the mattress and looks much better than having the mattress half hanging out naked. If you have vertical stripes on the sheets they go vertical up and down from top to bottom on the bed not Across the bed. a nice looking made bed makes the room really doesnt it?
  13. When you look across a parking lot full of cars and all the wind sheild wipers are sticking straight up in the air like black reeds in some type of weapon field.
  14. I try to understand you Rascal yet it is difficult to understand that you "take responsibility for your actions" (your wordsthere) and cry a victim in the same sentence all the while blaming others for your issues. in other words how can you be victimized (feeling hurt and attacked) for what you continue to do so often to others? I get that maybe the idea of letting the world know who you think is evil(twi) is a motivation for you. i know there will be h@ll to pay for even appraoching a discussion with you , and that is one of the troubles at greasespot, as long as those who desire to be heard can scream as loud as they chose about who ever they want and the lesser thans know their place on the forums and only midly disagree or stay silent it is all good , but waver a little bit from the silent rules and pecking order set in place here and it always gets nasty and accusing and attacking.
  15. this is why i love greasespot so much! made my day hahahalolololol it is brillant ! hahaha keeps me in touch with my roots ha
  16. it is wrong just wrong to go on and on about the devil . for what purpose does anyone need to know any of that stuff? does it help or serve people or God? barbra is jew ali is a moslem so this is about hate it is about hate and throwing stones at another religion. so why would God tell KAG about these "spirits" hmm for what just so we learn to hate another of Gods creation? so off the mark of loving that Jesus lives for today and all eternity.
  17. It was when KG taught that i realized something was wrong very wrong. she did this teaching and it must have been stupid because i do not remember one word of it but this part i remember and stuff that sticks in my brain sticks for a reason. so she is blah blah blah and somone asks a question and she says no questions although she had been researching this teaching for a long long time... ? so off she goes boring then after another question.. and she says. "you will have to ask my husband about that part!" karen if your reading this why did you say that? both me and my friend looked at each other and realized this was fried just fried. a teaching she taught a teaching she had researched but one simple question and she says ask Mark. i was done then. maybe you cant understand in the manner Im explaining it but it is so clear something was wrong very wrong. you think she is mentally ill? really? why?
  18. I do not think so.. Mark and KG have spent their life involved in "moving the word" in twi and ces and stf.. theyare loyal to the cause. I do not pretend to know motives now or then. But they left florida and sold their business Mark was washing windows on John Lynn call for them to join , they moved their family they once again did it all for the cause. then Mark began school and I would think with the hopes this is his career .. blam disagreements begins and he is suppose to say to his middle age wife and college age kids( 4 I think )oops my bad AGAIN? geez life is difficult but at what point do we say enough is enough and take it back? it is surly a wake of destruction of lifes and maybe they just are angry after all these years and years of being told what to do with their life and have it fall apart once again . just guessing lol but what people should do has been dictated to them for decades and now they are just done? nah not a little pill to swallow.
  19. why are so many attracted then? the word and nothing but the word lives ! now it is with a twist and a spin because we learned , really what did we learn?
  20. twi never paid my nut in life. and it has taken me the rest of my life to shake off the effects of being involved. I can NOT imagine having been exposed to all that it was and AND thinking and knowing it is a good money source of income ready and waiting for the taking. but for the grace of God really. yet nearly everyday i wonder what my life would have been if i had not had this hunger to know... what ever the heck this trip has been. today is NOT a good day and I think it would have been better to have never been exposed(was it easy for you to shake?) but I will never ever know unless the Lord does return.
  21. In high school i dated a boy who had a twin they were both involved in a car accident his twin a girl needed blood to survive they being jw denied it and she died. the guy i dated was absolutely tormented by the thoughts of God. ya know it lasted well into his 20's and then we lost contact but how can these parents justify that? to me it is nearly murder of his sister and a good chunk of his sanity. i will share when I love my children it isnt because they are "born again" or go to a certain church or even believe in a God. it is because i love them. does Jesus loves us any less or I think so much more.
  22. The entire concept of a who is who in the ministry is wrong in my opinion. When John first began CES and was traveling around dismissing the way and recruiting the falling leaves he said and I quote we are the body of Christ AND "no one is dandruf" it comforted many who felt lost and wanted to feel needed and a part of something again.. so we learned no one is "bad or lesser" so far that is a feel good statement YET have they learned no one is also GREATER than another in the body of Christ? when i read about the "gifts" I hear gift GIFT in other words to say somone (God) gave them to me free of charge to use as i needed them. it doesnt say now seek and search for them, beg for them, advise or to "practice them" or to even NEED them to function wholly in the body of christ. i think theses gifts are very common and not a big deal and they certainly in my mind do not deserve any adoration, or worship other than any other gift or blessing God gives us.

    WHO IS MY AVATAR?

    Is it your sister oldesman?
  24. For me a genuine leader is the person who can recognize and detect the strong and weak areas in people life and mission. and take the necesary action to direct each to become the best they can be . the leader is the one who can be the one who works with what they got recognize it for what it is and make it good for all involved! what does it Take to get these skills Well education varies within the area but a true "born leader basicly just enjoys people and desires for them to grow and be "good" at what they do in an area... and the side effect is the leaders are then respected and loved and turn into "leaders". we all lead really and we all follow I think the bottom line has to be love for people and a little faith in the power within each individual to make the difference for all. but the reality is most "leaders" in todays world are just foot hules who can lie and cheat better than the next guy to really cut you in the back harder before it gets them... till they too fall and no one wants to help them back up.
