  Viviane When did Jesus authorize you to determine who was a true Christian?
  

  Classic non sequitur. Eristic and off topic.

  *** wi (World Without War) p. 25 par. 7 Who Will Lead the Nations to Peace? ***
  The scandals among Christendom’s clergy are notorious. Immoral televangelists who rake in millions of dollars and live like kings.

  *** g88 3/22 p. 7 Do Today’s Religions Feed or Fleece the Flock? ***
  On one of ABC’s Nightline series of programs on the televangelists, ABC correspondent Marshall Frady said: “All the trappings of modern television evangelism seem a long way from the original simplicity of that intense young Galilean mystic without property, without any boards of directors, who just trudged about a dusty corner of the earth talking, two thousand years ago.”

  *** w92 12/1 p. 26 Not Peddlers of God’s Word ***
  “WE WERE selling our ministry for money.” Those are the words of a former “telephone prayer minister” interviewed in an investigative report of American television evangelists late in 1991.
  This program focused on three televangelistic ministries in the United States. It disclosed that people are fleeced of tens of millions of dollars every year by just these three. One “ministry” was described as a “state-of-the-art factory for donations.”

  -- w97 9/1 p. 13 Beware of False Teachers! "There will also be false teachers among you."—2 PETER 2:1.

  Wisely, we take note of how false teachers introduce their corrupt thinking. Peter first says that they do it quietly, or in an unobtrusive, subtle way.

  The mouthings of false teachers may seem plausible to one who is not spiritually alert, but their words are carefully designed "to buy" people, seducing them into serving the deceivers' selfish purposes.

  Although these corrupt men "consider luxurious living in the daytime a pleasure" and "are spots and blemishes," they are also devious. They act "quietly," using "counterfeit words," as Peter noted earlier.

  Closer to Fine As much as I wish I could say otherwise, my spouse will most likely donate more money now unfortunately.

  Set up a monthly bank payment into a savings account, for all the spare money you have left over each month.

  Then tell your spouse that, like the GB, your outgoings are greater than your income each month, so you need extra 'donations' yourself.

  Miss a few utility payments so you get reminders come through.

  Because singing about it is much more acceptable than coming right out and keep asking for money.

  (Although they do that as well!)

  The deficit that Lett told us about is the same sort of deficit we see at every convention - manufactured.

  By moving money from one corporation to another, a deficit is intentionally created.

  They are merely using the small scale deceptions plied upon all convention goers, but now on a world wide scale.

  Do they really spend $1billion dollars every 4 weeks? (Or whatever Lett claimed). Of course not. Never.
  It's a sneaky, forked tongued deception that might be semantically true, but is an underhanded and deceptive plea for more money.

  "We don't ask for money" says Lett, before spending 30 minutes asking for money.

  These charlatans have no shame. No. Shame.
  Jehovah's witnesses have become the latest televangelists begging for your hard earned dollar.

  the bible says so much about so many things.

  is there an organization that does everything the bible says?

  The second flaw is that we're not expected to preach God's name.

  Acts 20:20-21, the 'go to' verse to prove the door to door work says:
  "...while I did not hold back from telling you any of the things that were profitable nor from teaching you publicly and from house to house. But I thoroughly bore witness both to Jews and to Greeks about repentance toward God and faith in our Lord Jesus."

  So the message should be "repent and have faith in Jesus", not "God's name is Jehovah".

  They are allowed if there are no males available to do so.

  That is the theory, but I've never seen it happen.

  Lett can't even read the autocue properly. He reads in groups of three or four words instead of sentences.

  We have 7 year olds on the TMS who read better than Lett does.
