Im not surprised. Unless one really can get honest about a lot of things I wouldnt expect anyone to change. Its all he knows to do...same with other offshoots.

Oh man...twi is the land of reverends, doctors, and an occasional bishop...those suckers love titles and love demanding adoration based on said titles....

1. I mean...its those exact shortcomings he nurtured, hid, and lusted for his entire ministry. One has to ignore to make it fit because if one acknowledges them and believes what the Bible says then it become quite obvious he was a wolf in sheeps clothing. 2. But...but...its the way corps that messed everything up...didnt ya know?

I dunno...you'll have to ask Mike.

It also is telling way publications had to rework all of his printed publications to take his crazy claims out, sanitize his rants, and hide his lacking command of languages.

Not sure where he got it from but it was nothing more than a sales pitch.

Dude he was a Bishop...

Who in the actual eff are you to say what the Bible should say? Just open the dang thing and read it. It says snake and is obviously figurative and it says snake for a reason. Those twisted wierwillian re-intrepretations of scripture dont fly outside of TWI.

Meditate a little on this: 10And the disciples came, and said unto him, Why speakest thou unto them in parables? 11He answered and said unto them, Because it is given unto you to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it is not given.

I mean, it's really revealing when you think about it....revealing especially when considering the directors efforts with GSC.

No sir you are not making any of this up. I was front and center for all of this when I was at HQ. In fact, unfortunately, Im the one who found her after she had fallen by the circle in back of the EOB when she was out walking. I saw her fall, called for help, and stayed with her until they arrived. She was somewhat lucid but very confused as to what was happening with her or even why I insisted (very gently) that she remain in a comfortable position on the ground until ERT arrived. I never saw her again and was a pallbearer at her funeral. TWI is correct in that they legally cannot provide healthcare but are dead butt wrong for shuffling all her expenses onto her family and washing their hands of her. That was Rosalie all the way with a lot of consenting voices as usual. All heck broke out around HQ with the rumors and such. Just for the sake of accuracy, Ros-a-lie did pay for lawn care after the lawyers came through and educated them on running a cult legally but before that absolutely paid nothing. She paid a ridicouloously low price to have an entire 5 man mowing crew pull up with zero turn mowers and take care of her estate. But it was a paper trail that proved she wasnt taking private innurements. And I mean ridicoulsly low btw, so they failed the private innurement test on that note as you are supposed to pay market rate.

Im not sure if he did or didnt, or that if he did, the way international could legally honor whatever arrangement he may have made. I do know they took it as an excuse to pawn her medical expenses off on her family.

No...no provision. He expected the way international to care for her and since they aren't health care providers, legally they could not care for her. They used this legality an excuse to not cover any of her expenses either. They left that burden on the family. Thus, McMullen's charitable actions.

That's on you. Peace.

Which would make God a liar. Is that what u mean to say?

It's good to keep this front and center. The way international has spent a couple decades polishing VPW tarnished image.

Well said, sir.

Thanks, I'll check it out!

That is in part what the mystery is all about. That man made after the first Adam would be redeemed and made a-new after the last Adam Jesus Christ. So, yes, all will be summed as one new man under the same just laws of God almighty. Wierwille tried to make it all about Christ in you and that power was to be tapped like a spiritual keg to bring abundance. Lies.

Morning. Pharisees promoted adherence to their oral traditions that they said interpreted the Torah, which is what Jesus Christ confronted as the traditions of men, etc. So they were religious and political. Eventually, they developed the Babylonian Talmud based on their oral traditions. Wierwille and the way international promote their own traditions over scripture, all that proven ministry research given to let the Bible intrepret itself...snark..so there are parallels although limited parallels.

I disagree with the commentaries in that they do not cite the mystery of God. Ephesians 3:3-6 How that by revelation he made known unto me the mystery; (as I wrote afore in few words, 4 Whereby, when ye read, ye may understand my knowledge in the mystery of Christ) 5 Which in other ages was not made known unto the sons of men, as it is now revealed unto his holy apostles and prophets by the Spirit; 6 That the Gentiles should be fellowheirs, and of the same body, and partakers of his promise in Christ by the gospel: There are many mysteries in scripture but only one "the mystery of God". Then there are mysteries within mysteries... 1 Corinthians 15:51-53 Behold, I show you a mystery: We shall not all sleep; but we shall all be changed 52 in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. 53 For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality. So, to me it's problematic for dispensationalist theology when Revelation is supposed to be to another administration (it clearly is not) and in Revelation 10:7 we have a last trump about to sound that concludes the mystery of God. Am I decisive on anything yet....no....I appreciate you taking the time to post the commentaries, thanlks. Ive been looking at Rev 10:7 for at least three years now and havent found a commentary yet that handles the mystery that is revealed in the Church epistles.

Then we come across Revelation 10:7 But in the days of the voice of the seventh angel, when he shall begin to sound, the mystery of God should be finished, as he hath declared to his servants the prophets. Is this the last trump? If so it presents all kinds of problems to dispensationalism and our understanding of God's timing and the entire book of Revelation for that matter.

shoulda just brought the cloak like requested....

Interesting. Well, I've been reading the Book of Enoch which was removed from the canon and it shouldn't have been. It's quoted copiously through the new testament. It gives detail on the the subject but I'm not to that part quit yet....more later...good thoughts though...have my attention 4 sure.

If the dead are alive then why do we need a gathering together and two ressurrections? Are we ressurecting living people?
