Hold up...it is? If it's simple then there's no need for research....wait...there's no need for teachers, without whom we couldn't go farther than we are taught....then we would have no need for biblical research minu-strees...Mike we are in agreement! (Now Mike will come back with it would be simple but there's too much error in the churches and traditions of men..yada yada)

Your not being very loving.

Yeah...that part...why would God make a perfect sperm that would miss....why not just create the zygote....but who the heck really knows anyway?...is it even important? But wierwille had to say that type of stuff to look smart I guess..

Unless your name is the way international I made your tactics about them.

Then lead it by example.

Yeah...thats the similarity...progeny was never mentioned.

Classic way international bullying tactics here. Put out a couple mis-guided statements then quote a scripture out of context and just like that BAM! We are all running to not offend mike by telling him the truth or disagreeing with him becuase that would be un-loving.

Except whats in pflap is all from extant sources many which pre-date wierwille...so how could it have not been known since the first century when it was clearly pilfered from a variety of sources?

Heres a kinda janked out list from page 6 that I started and forgot about...lol

Yeah, thats a good point and I think it goes along with fantasyland. All the emphasis on the spiritual world, using spiritual as a moidifier from anything from spiritual rewards to spititual partners. Personally, I am of the opinion that the doctrinal error is so bad in the way international that they have to have their own subculture to all play fantasy land...HQ is a great example. It's surreal around there...

I think wierwille and martindale took cues from Branham's doctrines. Wierwille in many places and several parallells and martindale with Eve and the devil having sex, though martindale didn't say cain was fathered by lucifer. Theres parallels and start differences as well.

Cool....it's a good read.

Mikes not going to read her book.

I played a lot of music for the way both on the field, Gunnison, and HQ. I wont comment on HQ way productions except only to say they are doing way better than when rosalie was around. Personally, I enjoyed playing at branch meetings, STS hookups, classes even. I didnt know anything about all the goofiness with vp, how he felt about musicians, ego trips, all that until I arrived at HQ. I heard the stories as well when I was in-residence. I can really see your points on ego trip accusation vs. jealousy as a motivation from the accuser. I guess I never really got involved in all of that and just played what I was going to play the best I could play it. I coordinated a concert for staff members each year at HQ, called Summer Jam. Basically, a group of young staffers had set up shop at one of the parks in New Knoxville and rosalie had a coniption fit. Anyways, she couldnt force them not to do the concert in the park so she opened up the stage out behind the auditorium and we made it an official staff event. We always had a really good turnout. Ususally around 7 to 10 acts of varying skill levels and usually a few hundred people in the audience. Everyone always had fun and just did their best and it was no critiscism or ego really, we all just had a good time. Turns out a many staffers had a lot of hidden talents and I enjoyed seeing other aspects of their abilities and such. Im not sure if this event endured the test of time, which I doubt, or if it faded off into obscurity after interest faded or whatever... Thats cool you get to play at fellowship. Fun stuff. Enjoy!

I dunno...didn't the research department write quite a few of those and others are editors compilations?....anyone?

welll....uhh.....because wierwille said it is....

Great pic of the auditorium!

I can't even say i was on the president's cabinet with a straight face....comedy

Lol....they act like HQ is huge ...it's really tiny.

U talking to a region guy?
