  1. I’m baffled by the workers not using scripture (being careful to not take verses out of context), and admonishing those in the ministry to let God work in their lives, and being reminded that it is their responsibility to bring the Spirit of Peace into every home, or they aren’t welcome! If each one had brought the Spirit of Peace, not one of them would have any charges against them!! These people are wolves in sheep’s clothing, and should (by the scripture) be CAST OUTSIDE THE CAMP. Absolutely NO exceptions!! If someday they find honesty, then they can work out their own salvation with FEAR and Trembling, in their OWN homes. There’s people around the world that have no one to have fellowship with, and God sees those souls, and He won’t forget them. If they choose hell, then they’ve taken the liberty that God gives EVERYONE to choose their own destination. Leave them to their own choices, the victims and future generations need to be heard, loved like Christ loved the church, and not have to be tortured by human stupidity – because you aren’t trusting God or having Faith. Walter, Aaron, Leanne, nor anyone else that’s done despicable things have no place in or around God’s family. I also find no scripture to back having a hierarchy, and don’t claim “we don’t”, because that would just be another lie. We are done with all the dishonesty, deception, and corruption! Let’s all rise up in righteousness, and stop this like God’s people did in Judges!!

  2. Oh, and your “workers code of conduct “ should never have been written. If they aren’t willing to use an even more in-depth writing (the Bible), they certainly aren’t going to use a man’s manual, other than to clobber each other with whatever you wrote. It’ll become nothing more than a weapon. Your staff needs the Spirit of God, and that takes a lot of humility, prayer, meditation, showing love one to another, by allowing the Spirit to move them. Going in Faith! I can’t tell you how many workers have shown up with their cars and trunks PACKED…which adds weight to the vehicle and uses more fuel…all in the name of selfishness! Plus, they are using rooms of the friends homes…packing closets, etc full of their treasures…put your treasure in HEAVEN, and GO IN FAITH!!
