12/03/18 THEY FOUND ME
12/03/18 THEY FOUND ME
I have been accused of hiding since 1986 (among other things).
During that entire time you could have found me hiding...
FB for over 9 years;
Internet presence and activity 20+ years;
Television and Newspaper News,
in NC (Coast, Piedmont),
in Texas (Dallas, Fort Worth),
in Tennessee (Knoxville, Crossville);
Radio and Cable TV programing
in NC,
in Texas.
I have had my name publicly displayed on church signs in North Carolina, Texas, Tennessee, South Carolina.
I have been well known (and sometimes maligned) by police, Texas Rangers, Courts, State Government Agencies, Law firms, Nationally known political leaders, nationally known church leaders.
People have threatened to kidnap the children of my church.
People have planned to send "cult deprogramers" to snatch adults and children from my 'CONTROL."
People have sent Law enforcement to rescue their "little girls," (who were actually grown and married women, one of which was a mother of three). Oh, and the accusers knew the facts.
Law Enforcement was actually alerted to raid our church and I was told I would be arrested and put in jail.
In another State, Law Enforcement was told to surveil me and my church because we were a dangerous cult (possibly making human sacrifices).
People have impersonated my mother and father, seeking "information" about me. My poor mother had been dead for about 30 years.
There have been "Christian women" who have traveled from three separate States in order to go to court, bear false witness and destroy a family of three, because of their hatred for me and my ministry.
Some of these blasphemers and detractors have contacted my family, friends, former parishioners, lying about me, my church, my practices, my beliefs.
I have been called, Jim Jones, David Karesh, Muammar Gaddafi and falsely aligned with the Matamoros Ritualistic Killings of the late 1980s.
AND THIS IS JUST SOME OF SATAN'S ATTACK ON US.
I am just glad I was in hiding, because there is no telling what those lying blasphemers would have done if I had maintained a public presence.
And by the way, my beliefs, practices, affiliations, associations, locations have always been available.
I have not done anything that is contrary to Biblical practice or Historical Christianity or contrary to the Constitution of the United States of America or Biblical (New Testament) revelation.
I have never asked, coerced, forced anyone to be part of our ministry or to do anything that was contrary to their knowledge of the word of God or in conflict with their own personal convictions. In fact, I have actually sent people away from our ministry, in order for them to evaluate our ministry, their own beliefs and their associations with us.
I have warned people that being part of our ministry would probably unleash the hounds of hell on them, therefore I urged them to be very careful about their choices. (And, sure enough, the Denizens of the Dark have actually destroyed families that God had put together.)
When others have shown an interest in our ministry and I asked them what held them back, some of them quickly and clearly said that they believed we were Biblical and Christian, but they knew that going the way of the Bible will probably lead to jail or worse. People have told me that they were not willing to risk their "stuff" and lifestyle, because the cost was too great.
I tell you this, because we need to understand that Satan wants to destroy individual believers and entire churches. He uses deceit and intimidation to thwart the work of God. We have not been in hiding. In fact, I have boldly and unapologetically taken my stand for Jesus and His word and when threatened I have said, "Send your bad boys," and in affect, "Come and Take it."
I don't depend on the arm of flesh, or horses and chariots, or Caesar or the nationally known "heroes of the faith. I am just me, a simple follower of Christ, living by faith, trusting in the Sword of the Spirit and not the sword of steel. I believe in human government and I reject anarchy as well as Statism.
Now, how would you like be part of our little ministry? hehehe

12/03/18 TWO DASH-CAMS HUNGERING AND THIRSTING
Two DASH-CAMS on the same subject; similar, but each one has unique thoughts, concerning Hungering and Thirsting after God, The Word, Righteousness.
Maybe you will find a blessing. Listen for something to help you. If you are interested, then listening to each one at different times might be helpful.
