"The most important men and women in the world are those who have made themselves poor in order to preach the Gospel, and as this preaching of the Gospel is the most important thing with God, so it should be with us. "       Jack Carroll, Hayden Lake, Idaho, Convention, Nov. 10-13, 1922. 

     "The Scripture tells us that it is the attitude towards the Truth that a
person has, that determines whether or not God lets them into the gates or
not."  Howard Mooney Convention Notes!

Note: The workers claim that they are the only ones who preach the truth. When they speak of the Truth they are talking about them and their  group.

Hello to each of you,

Others told us the workers feel we are bitter and enemies of 'truth' and our mission is to encourage people to leave 'truth' and to destroy and not edify. This is a unique system that disperses so many different leaders in all different directions and they are never indigenous to one area for very long. They can be placed in an area and really damage people through different kinds of abuse and then be placed on opposite sides of the country to continue that process and really never be held accountable.

Leadership that drops people like a hot potato if they choose to leave is bad leadership!!!!

Leadership that forces people to dress severely and then laughs or makes comments as they watch new people struggle to attain "the form" is bad leadership!!!!!!!

Leadership that sweeps sexual abuse under the rug is bad leadership!!

Leadership that reprimands a lady worker for speaking about adultery, (this really happened, don't write me) warning her we do not speak about that subject, is obviously a huge question mark as to the why of that and definitely bad leadership!!!!! I really have to say, hmmmmmmmm, wonder why, on this one!!!!!!!!

Leadership that coddles self-righteousness while preaching on and forcing "form" is bad leadership!!!!!!!!!

Leadership that deems itself so great that you have to hear "it" before you can go to heaven is BAD LEADERSHIP!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I could go on and on but the last, and most important of all: Leadership that doesn't teach its followers about the sweetest, most precious gift from Jesus over 2000 years ago is BAD LEADERSHIP!!!!!!!!!!!

People do fall headlong into this pit of bad leadership and collectively, they can't rise out of it. Individuals can but it is nearly impossible for an entire group to rise up and out of the pit. Those individuals that can and do rise out, then get labels applied to them!! Bitter!!! Unwilling!!! Enemies of 'truth'!! Spreading propaganda!!! On a mission to destroy and not edify!! Lost sheep!!

Do all of you remember me telling you about boxes and boxes of 2x2 literature that my relatives discovered at the ranch house of my deceased Grandfather and step-grandmother? Well, they found a huge, battered, obviously old, suitcase last week and do you know what was in it? Yes, oh my, yes, GOBS AND GOBS OF BLACK STOCKINGS!!!!!!!! Black dresses and a black hat and letters dated in the thirties!! This was a suitcase that contained one of the RULES of the 2x2's from not that many years ago!!! My relatives laughingly called it, "Religion in a suitcase!!!!!!!!" Proof of a rule that was and is no longer!!!!! A rule that was man-made just like all the rest!!!! Rules that come and go!! This "RULE" has been sitting in an old bunkhouse on a ranch for years!!! 2x2 rules!!! Just like the entire sermon on the sin of panty hose at Edgewood Convention a few  years ago that I personally heard! Oh yes, and also the mention of the sin of the pony tail!! (this is one of the things that I used to hear when I was growing up!!) Oh, and I just remembered that my real Grandmother who died of breast cancer was forced by the workers to remove her wedding ring and put on black stockings when she first professed  and no one ever knew what happened to the ring!!!!!!!!  Aaahhh yes, but it "is", after all, the same yesterday, today and forever!!! :oj  Like Right!!!!!!!! Rules created by bad leadership.
