Yes, and adding to Paul's valid question, there is an NT scripture (rather than an OT one which deals with prophets etc) which states categorically... in my paraphrase which is easier to read...
"If your brother errs ... challenge him face-to-face... and take along another brother to witness the conversation" and while it is just my paraphrase, surely it is easier to understand?
Isn't that exactly what those who were ignored actually tried hard to do, and were rebuffed by "the system"?
How can they have been wrong to do so, unless in the eyes of the "cover-up gang"?
If you are interested, the book I wrote about immanuel was never printed but created experimentally and posted to www.wildernesschristianity.net/immanuel with each chapter as a separate pdf (for security and integrity) after many hours of questioning folk, including Jeff Hammond (whose Biblical Church Pattern had been withdrawn from sale and copies in Adelaide destroyed (remember the 3rd Reich and library books in the 1930's under reichsfuhrer Adolf Hitler/Schickelgruber?)
Seriously, I came across an oblique reference to the morality problem prior to that which made me realise that there were TWO seperate and distinct Ray Jacksons, something that I had never been told by any of the people at CCA Adelaide.
As someone taught to be careful about what you write, as no hard evidence was there when I wrote my book, I had to write from an earlier perspective where as Paul confirms, things were not quite as heinous in behaviour.
If you read each separate pdf chapter carefully, I believe you will garner some stuff that may fit well into what you have read here from two or three writers. By carefully, I mean read every word in each totally complete seperate pdf.
There is only one way to describe this. A total and complete cover-up.
For what it is worth, it wasn't until later when I encountered on-line Offiler's final successor (Joe McKnight), who went to be with the Lord some years ago, still living in or near Seattle, I pieced further history together. Unfortunately my previously sharp memory is failing because of age (born in January 1935); this is why I write now, to put stuff on record.
Please read it.
I can't emphasise this enough.
Please read it....
There is no inaccuracy per se, just stuff which I said before that I was unable to prove.
My maternal grandfather was a judge in the UK, and he taught my mother well about what you can and can't write
