Great Point Penworks! I'm curious to know if they'll put Ellen Whiteside's name on the cover. As many of you know, TWI sells "What God's Word Says About Angels" and "Outreach Strategies of Jesus Christ" without LCM's name.

Twice a month was considered 'faithful.' If a person stops attending for six months, TWI considers that person no longer participating in the ministry. I know they used to inflate the numbers or exaggerate TWI's influence on culture, but to be fair, those were their criteria (at least until the last two or three years). And...Nowadays home fellowships are twice a week.

A) YES, I do! b) I know that TWI restructured the criteria, so that a "faithful believer" is one who goes at least twice a month and a "non-faithful" believer is one who at least attends one home fellowship within a 6-month period.

I know Rocky, but I would love to help people all over the world to overcome the chains of TWI. Have a good day!

I got your point BUT, TWI inaugurated a HQ right there (DRC) with lots of press. (CHECK THE PICTURE) About South America, when Geer arose, many different ministries (splinters) were formed such as "Word Over the World" in Argentina and "The Way Corporation" in Chile... both have around 100-150 believers. The number of people participating in TWI in Argentina, Chile, and Venezuela is around 600 active participants per country. How do I know that? Because I had access to the census that TWI requested annually from the coordinators of all the countries...

Over the years, I've built many friendships with believers from various countries, and through their social media, I know they attended the Rock, so the 3,000 attendees ... could be possible. Regarding the ambassadors, a Wayfer posted a photo with a breakdown of the ambassadors: no more than 20 were from the United States; the rest were mostly from Venezuela and the Congo. Consider that there are approximately 20,000 followers of the Way in the Congo. Here in the states, it's difficult for the number of followers of the Way to grow significantly, because it's already well known as a cult by several people. However, in South American and African countries, it has seen slight growth..... This presents us with a challenge for Greasespot to reach people all over the world and not just in the usa.

They are streaming their STS every week; you can check it on their website.

TWI re-released the book titled 'The Way : Living in Love' by Elena S. Whiteside. Opinions?

They are selling “What the word says about angels” by Craig. However, TWI deleted his name. So… they use his material but pretend he never existed. Classic

I’ve heard Joe Fair, Dean Ellenwood, Brian Bliss and others were invited. I doubt they even could consider it.

Wow! The famous adultery paper by John Schoenheit. I took the Class called "Living God's Word as a Family"...(an evolution of the old one by VPW), nowadays TWI places more emphasis on adultery, fornication, and child-rearing than on marital sexuality (nicknames for genitals LOL) I can type the index of the class if you wish.

Awesome Book! JCING pales in comparison.

Yes, Way Corps is still run out of Camp Gunnison and HQ. (WC 55 as far as I know). They do not mention Stiles, Bullinger or Leonard cause it is so freakin' easy to prove he plagiarized them, if someone just goes to google and writes down "Stiles, Wierwille".

Perhaps I didn't express myself entirely well. TWI openly doesn't claim to be "the only body of Christ," but it acts as if it were, applying certain organizational principles that God established in the Epistles for "The Body of Christ." (The "Household of God" thing, Romans 13 ,etc) The point is that in the first century, Jesus Christ walked among them; they had the twelve apostles as "the direct source." Today, many claim to have the "Rightly divided word" What should the relationship between brothers in Christ from different churches/groups be like? How should Christian groups relate to each other if they have so many doctrinal differences? Could there be a meeting of believers between TWI, CFFM, TLTF (CES), and a Baptist Church (or any other Church)? (I know it sounds utopian, but I use that question to explain what I meant in my first post.)
