When I was but a young pup and running my very first "tree appendage", I made the mistake of telling the new attendees of our cozy group that we were "affiliated" with The Way. After the meeting, the leader of the next larger "tree appendage" made certain I knew that we were not "affiliated" with The Way, we WERE The Way! (circa: 1972)

I can't tell. Is x going up the hill or coming down?

I wasn't offended. I was just responding to your question about the effects of spike strips and flat tires. :)

I think Jesus should sue The Way for misrepresenting his mission in session one of *PLAF (The Wonder Class)*. *Puke, Loogie And Flatulance*

Happened here a few years ago. Cops through down the strip. The car flipped over. Killed the driver and an innocent bystander.

Smiling faces I can see-----but not for me.

It is the evening of the day.

Aww! You guys are just being negative!

Hey, kids!! Be the first on your block to have your very own cult!!

If they're still teaching the TWI doctrine of "The Law of Believing", it's your cue to distance yourself. That is, perhaps, the single most destructive doctrine these splinters all seem to have in common.----IMO

Hypocotis-ape-sis

And, Father, I just thank you for healing this man's brain cell----

This thread isn't about the accuracy or inaccuracy of "the tithe". It's about the sudden feeling of vulnerability one experiences when realizing their avenue of "tithing" has been closed.

One of these might help ease the stress, too. I get my best revelation on an open stretch of country road.

Why limit the cruising to Smallsville? The capitol's only a couple hours away. Lots of chicks to impress there. Even the married ones jump at the chance to glide around town in style while hubby's away at work. HERE

I need one of these to help me keep my mind free for moving Da Verd. Toss a bottle of "Turkey" in the glove box and we're good to go.

Classic!!

They took something that isn't even Biblically accurate (PFAL) and used it to strong-arm us into giving them protection money. Can you imagine a grade school kid, who finally moves away from a school with a playground bully, ever worrying he might not have anyone to give his lunch money to at the new school? :wacko:

What about old Vicster and Howard. How much did they ABS? (without doctoring books to give a false impression.) None of that crap about how they gave their time and lives, yada, yada, either. We rank and file peons were never allowed to declare "time given" as part of our tithe or ABS. What about Craig? I wonder where he sends his payment that allows God to spit in his direction.

While we were in The Way, one of the concepts that was pitched to us was the supposed importance of tithing and abundant sharing. It started in PFAL with Christians Should Be Prosperous. There was all the talk about how 9/10ths could go farther than 10/10ths and how our giving was like a form of health and life insurance, etc.. If we didn't do it, we were leaving ourselves susceptible to attacks from the adversary . So, anyhow, when you left, did you wonder to yourself how and where you would now tithe so you could stay in God's good graces? Did it ever cross your mind that you might be walking away from God's protection by not tithing? Think about it. It's like a woman walking out on an abusive spouse and worrying if the SOB will have a decent dinner tonight.

CHRISTIAN LEADERSHIP TRAINING ------ is approved by the Lord to receive abundant sharing tithes and offerings. ------- ************************************************************************* WOWZER!! I'm making out the check right now!! :o

He's probably trying to squeeze us into his busy schedule------somewhere between rinsing Mung Bean sprouts and soaking wheat berries.

I wonder if they plan to sue Derek Trucks for "stealing" Psalm 98:4. JOYFUL NOISE

I sit and watch the children play Doin' things I used to do They think are new I sit and watch

Maybe I should have simply said it's like "apples and oranges".
