  1. I think they ignore St. Patrick's day since it's Roman Catholic at heart? Someone correct me if I am wrong, my memory is a little fuzzy. I know the corner pub up the street is tapping a keg of green beer at 6pm today....lol
  2. At least they sounded good. Present day way productions is a horror show. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0VPcPCwK_G0
  3. I remember this goofiness. Craig lead the charge on this stuff as far as I remember. It no doubt originated with Wierwille with JCNG, but the hardcore meanness in the 90s was all Craig.
  4. I couldn't agree more. He is a man who established himself in a non-profit theocracy and used it's trappings to cloak his unbridled lust.
  5. Thanks as well form me, WW. I had studied various occult writers prior to getting involved with the way international. So when I heard Christ in you (a.k.a. unleash the power within) teachings where we release power by renewing our minds, synchronized life, the law of believing, etc., I recognized it right away as the occult. Only problem was I immediately chalked it up to the adversary counterfeiting the true God's workings. Silly me. I knew and rationalized it away. I have never heard of Albert Cliffe until finding him on GSC.
  6. VPW definitely mixed in occult teaching via Word of Faith trappings with his law of believing, focus until it happens, the power is within you mumbo jumbo. The end result is faith in oneself as the focal point of "power" instead of faith in God and his power.
  7. I have no doubt that V2P2 knows full well his Grand Pappy's sordid history and evil ways. Heck, his own Granddaughter told me on more than one occasion the truth about him. So what do they do with that info? Chalk it up as just a few short comings? Explain it away to themselves? I guess they ignore all the verses that condemn what he did and all the other verses that lay out requirements for leadership....the same requirements the old geezer used to lay on others. What a sad way to waste one's life. So here we have a brand new crop of youngsters following a lil' wannabe huckster. I trust he is sincere, but hey - "Sincerity is no guarantee for truth!"
  8. Yep, looks like second verse same as the first.
  9. I dunno about this awful case, but I do know that the way international's idiotic judgments are very sometimey. Sometime this sometimes that. Heck, I knew of a region coordinator who told one of his state coordinators to counsel a young woman not to accept government assistance because she could believe her way to prosperity. Meanwhile, at headquarters it's De facto standard to help people with medical problems get on Medicaid.
  10. Really, I think that incident alone teaches all one needs to know about Mr. Forehead.
  11. Ya, them dang lawyers sort of rained on the parade. <_<
  12. Oh, as a relative new comer and given information on GSC is searchable but not necessarily jumping out at readers, it never hurts to bring up topics again. IMO anyways.
  13. Best I can figure they are a splinter of a splinter. I think they came out of CFF w/o CFF really wanting them to. Correct me if I am wrong, I am still trying to get a handle on their origins me-self.
  14. Rolling on the floor after reading the posts, I appreciate the humor all!
  15. ROFLMAO!! So I guess I don't need to worry about being 10 minutes early either.
  16. Just making sure I didn't miss the gathering or anything. Been awful quiet around here. Dang, looks like I may have been a seed boy after all.
  17. Yes indeed, married and in my thirties.
  18. Doing great in-spite of the doom prognostications that were sent my by John Rupp as I was a preparing to depart HQ. I p.m.d you the details!
  19. Geesh, I need to check in here more often, I spend way too much time in the About The Way section. Welcome to GSC my friend! I also enjoyed reading your posts and you made the best move you could have in getting away from that little corn field cult.
  20. You have my vote to the Board when a chair comes open...well...if there ever was a vote for something like that...
