I wonder if this argument would hold up in court....I mean words have meaning and language is set up on various rules and such, but hey, lets redefine words and break the rules of language to hold up our bronzed idols shall we! Cmon sing along..roll awa roll away every burden on your hear roll away...song along now!

Oh boy, I missed this little jewel....I better post it up real quick before I forget what I was gonna post.... So to receive anything from God I need to have my needs and lusts paralell, or balanced, or balanced and paralell...I mean nevermind scripture tells us lusts are evil. So if I covet my neighbors wife but that covetousness is balanced out with my genuine need for sexual relations then God will provide my neighbors wife because my lust and needs are balanced. Now I understand wierwille, he was right all along for being a sexual predator and serial adulterer. Thanks! You make this crap up as you go? Or you really pulling it all from the collateral damage books and pflappy?

Egads...thats why it doesnt fit!!

Martindale danced around with fake devil spirits on stage while wearing spandex. So what wierwille was a dancing monkey in the video who was too stupid to use the correct word to describe a scale being balanced and used the word parallel instead. Should come as no surprise as there are consequences to mail in doctorates. BTW - needs and wants dont need to be balanced either, thats utter bullshonta and you are using it to cover your @$$. But for the sake of argument: If needs and wants need to be balanced then thats an equal sized load of bullshonta that balances out with the bullshonta parallel concept. The burden of proof is on you. Show me one verse that says needs and wants need to be balanced before God can provide. So I have to have equal parts of need and equal parts want before I can receive anything from God....where you guys get this crap from? a spiritual coolbook? I can imagine the counsel now: Oldskool, to receive anything from God you have to have 1/3 cup of need exactly proportioned to 1/3 cup of want and those portions must be exactly parallel. Now, if you need something you don't want then God can't provide it, or if you want something you don't need then God can't provide it.. .........my Lord you can't make this stuff up...next thing you know mike will come along and tell us he re-watched the video (of course by candlelight in a dark room with pictures of VPW and his little bronze statue nearby) and he has proof that needs and wants must be parallell because wierwille was wearing black socks in the video so therefore the definitions of parallel and balanced are now kind of a hybrid where to balance anything the opposing items need to be parallel and equally portioned. The mathematical geomoetry is mind blowing...lo bullshonta mogadishu malakas many hypotenuse.

Right on. Im also thinking, from my own time as a good little wayfer, that mike imaginies he is battling devil spirits with the information we post. I mean, disagreements with wierwille always pointed to posession. So we are likely all hate filled, devil posessed cop outs and mike is here exercising his prowess in the spiritual competition. I saw, and participatied, in that delusional behavior my entire time in TWI. Example: Walmart witnessing, (silly made up example that actually happened ad infinitum) as I have a copy of golf digest (I hate golf) at the magazine aisle as I try and creep my way into a conversation I can turn to the class...finally I make eye contact and ask the person reading sport illustrated if they are an athelete...I then pounce and start preaching the spiritual competition....as they walk away hurriedly from the wacko reading golf digest who hates golf....I suddenly exercise discerning of spirits and realize that the guy who was reading sports illustrated and ran from me trying to preach the spiritual competition...is....posessed! See -- spiritual matrurity.

He probably strarted the thread.

Because words have meaning which makes it utter bullshonta

Dueces, Im off to get parallel with my mattress and see if I cant balance the remote in my hand as I send parallel waves through thin air so i can select my desired channel...now thats needs and wants parallel. I need to go lay on my behind and I want to watch some TV...deuces mr wizard!

Its fun watching you invent your own religous theology out of thin air to keep your bronzed idol propped up.

No I didnt goof goof. Im looking at the scenarios thinkng a gift for a king from a foreign emissary inspired by God would be enough for life considering his mission. Oh...you cant think like that though, youre god has a budget.

wierwille certainly had that one down. You gonna keep hurling childish insults? Grow up.

Don't blame me cause the verse doesn't say what you want it to.

Yeah, a rich carpenter. Jesus likely was very wealthy but it's highly unlikely it was from what he earned. If he had bread it was from the gold, frakenscence, and myrrh he received from the wisemen when he was an infant. They were quite literally gifts fit for a king.

Alright, since you insist on addressing me as if Im an ignorant jacka$$ who lacks the very basic comprehension to understand wierwille's remedial and elementary presentations. Parallel and balanced are not even remotely the same concept. But you are accusing me of assigning meaning to other words, or maybe its your memory loss or lack of desire, but I do want to fix this basic misunderstanding you have that parallel and balanced are synanomous. Let me explain there, boy wonder. Parallel is equilateral, or one could say everywhere equally distanced. The concept has nothing to do with the items being balanced. You could have a car traveling equally distanced to a cat and the two items mentioned would be parallel but not balanced. Parallel is not balanced. Balamced is speaking of a harmonious proportion between items and those items may or may not be equally distanced. Balance implies an equality, a harmonious state. Can you see the difference, there mr wizard? If you are still in the dark then please use the following link to help clear up what you have appearantly forgotten, or not paid attention to, or whatever have you...maybe you were running an atom smasher that day or something.... https://www.merriam-webster.com/ So, if wierwille said and taught that to receive anything form God your needs and wants must be parallel then needs and want must be equally distanced. I could need a can of sardines and want an elephant and God would have to provide them as long as they are equally distanced in their course. If wierwille meant balanced and used parallel then he is a complete idiot that lacked basic dexterity and comprhension to pick up an effn dictionary and use it. And in the world of little g god breathed pflap that is a glaring error and according to wierwille, if it fails on one point it fails on all points. Epic fail...epic fail. Make it make sense there mikey.

Yet 50 years later and you still can't explain what it means but have to provide 10 paragraphs of word salad and some twisted scriptures to try and make it fit...

My God, it absolutely does NOT say what you are trying to make it say!!! Read what's written without wierwille goggles dude. He's talking about people asking God amiss because they are trying to fulfill their lusts....this has nothing to do with needs low and wants high.

You include every possibility except VPW was full of bullshonta. I have no reason to ever turn back to false doctrines and false prophets, which saint vic taught and most definitely was.

No, I dont have sin in my life like vic had and I seriously hope you don't have the same sins of sexual predations in your life there mike. He was a predator who went to his grave hugging his sins like a trophy. Find me one instance of victor paul wierwille repenting of rampant adultery, of using his position of power to molest young women, of using his postion of power to have others procure young women for him to molest, or married women for him to molest...one instance. His own wife said at his graveside "He was a mean man." Not exatlctly exemplifiying the love of God now was he. VPW would be a different case had he repented and changed but he never did, and that makes him a wolf in sheeps clothing having eyes full of adultery. And yes, I have done some horrible things that I have in part discussed on GSC. The difference is, and why I discuss them here, is I have repented, asked for forgiveness, and am actively making amends and producing fruits worthy of repentance. Yes that matters mike. Wierwille taught Christianity was about getting stuff. Plain and simple. He rationalized and miminised sin. Christianity at it's very heart is the eradication and confession of sin as well as the eradication of the sin nature a new nature given in Jesus Christ at the new birth. Weve been given a choice.

WITAF does this actually mean in the first place. Needs and wants are typically perpendicular according to God, in that lusts such as VPW exemplified are perpendicular to morality and God's will on adultery, fornication, love of money, drunkenness....so having them parallel is what exactly? Rationalized sin? Such confusing bullshonta that clearly has no scriptural basis as out pointed out Nathan_Jr

Dude ..your not supposed to think about that...now do 30 retemories...

Thats the awesomest most euphamistic way of saying bat $hit crazy I ever came across....almost like having one's fecal matter amalgamated into one tight cohesive unit is to have one's $hit together...or something like that...

Fwiw, I've thought the same, however, being somewhat of an internet sleuth I can say Mike is a real person and I'm saying this with 100% certainty and I'm saying it without doxing Mike.

Scripture supports what u say. It's goofy religious, etc., practices that tell us otherwise Romans 2:14,15 14 For when the Gentiles, which have not the law, do by nature the things contained in the law, these, having not the law, are a law unto themselves: 15 Which shew the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience also bearing witness, and their thoughts the mean while accusing or else excusing one another;)

Yeah...gotcha...regular mR Wizard.
