Pretty wild stuff. Posting this incase some of you haven't heard of them.

Pretty wild stuff.

Mark 16:15-16 (King James Version)

15And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.

16He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.

Not all that wild.
Though I do not agree with the methods and tactics of some believers ( whether misunderstanding or poor communication) all have this mission.

The article sounded like nothing but Christian bashing.

According to the Washington Post, however, the Fellowship Foundation is itself linked to an even more secretive religious organization — Youth With a Mission (YWAM), whose Washington, DC branch owns the “C Street House” where Ensign has lived and where Sanford has participated in Bible study.

Cunningham was found to be particularly involved in a YWAM offshoot known as The Film Institute, whose goal is to place its graduates “within the film industry, not to give them jobs, but so that they can begin to impact and transform Hollywood from the inside out.”

Ensign and Sanford were tied to a group that wanted to "Christianize" Hollywood from the inside out? Hollywood has big lobby, they asked for what happened to them.



On another occasion a homeless man who happened to be Gay was told by several YWAMers that he should ‘come to Jesus because Jesus will make you straight’. They continued to do this even after he repeatedly stated that he did not want to be made straight.”

This just crosses the line.

What a ridiculous non-story. Evangelical Christianity is such foreign concept to the writer of that article that they can't conceal their ignorance of it. There's nothing secretive about the organization YWAM. They're a well-known missions organization. And yes they try to convert people to Christianity. And no they don't believe in praying to Mary (as most Protestants don't). The fact that a city as liberal as San Francisco would investigate whether or not they should be considered a cult because the proselytize people says more about San Francisco than it does them. And the coincidence that Ensign and Sanford both had some loose tie with YWAM or an affiliated organization is just that, a coincidence.

[idiom]

YWAM is about as mainstream 'christian' as you can get.

Liberty Star, why is it OK to be gay and promote being gay... But when someone dares push their opinion that being straight is where it 's at then all hell breaks loose. Now that is what I call progress...;)

Some of us who walk around this earth as citizens of the Kingdom of Heaven passing through this womb of mother earth, to be eternally born in the actual present moment, know that this existance in the petry dish of death where we are subject to consciously existing only in the gulf of the past given the fact that our corrupt existence in the actual present moment would only infect the matrix of reality.

Every conscious moment of our existence occurs in the past of every instance. For all intents and purposes, we may as well be dead to the actual present moment, that is until we are unleashed from this prison of the flesh that has us held hostage from the actual present moment, inspite of us having inherited this corrupt prison from Adam and Eve, once we leave this petry dish as every generation that has ever come before us has, while being born to the actual present moment of eternity, which in case you did not know we are all hurling towards at the speed of light.

The date with fate, once we are unleashed from the past and are present with those in operation of the actual present moment, what will have been the answer to the equation of our lives?

I am amazed at how so many people want to go to heaven, but refuse to allow the truth to be resurrected in their lives in the form of Jesus Christ. The purpose of the earth was to destroy death, and produce citizens for the kingdom of heaven from those who would recognize the truth and possess the reason and fortitude to intigrate that truth into the equation of their lives that they might be saved from the calamity of having all corrupt programs not intigrated with the truth permanently and eternally removed from the matrix of reality along with death.

Reality is pure and untainted from corruption. We are called to be Holy and Perfect. There is no higher calling in the world than the calling of Jesus Christ. The Kingdom of Heaven is for those who can be citizens of heaven on earth. "Thy will be done on earth as it is in Heaven". If it is your will and intention to commit to your innate eternal consequences then you will be subject to the highest calling on the earth, the calling that wills us to be holy and be perfect the calling of love, and be bound to the grace of god through Jesus christ that makes up for our short comings through his death that redeemed us by making death bankrupt for having the nerve to even dream of consuming the truth.

indeed we the citizens of heaven who embrace the highest calling on earth, are bought with a price, the ultimate price. Jesus having entered into death, is able to manifest himself to our rightiousness and unshacke us from our corruption as we are resurrected with him. Our rightiousness is only the result of allowing the truth that is Jesus Christ to be resurrected in the lives we live that this life will be eternally joined with his in heaven.

Now you can sojourn towards your fate with the truth and at every crossroad carry the burden of the cross back across towards salvation or put down the cross and make the turn to wickedness and worldly pleasures to anesthetise the the horror and terrifying screams of your innate conscious mind until you have completely seared your the nerve of your conscience.

You can either embrace the truth or not, the equation of your life will be determine by your choice. The choice is yours to be in the Kingdom of Heaven or not. You can deny it, its your choice. Be brilliant.

YWAM isn't that secret, they have a pretty big billboard at their location in East Texas. I don't know a lot about them, but I see their billboard off I20 a LOT.

The family has a secretive side where they try to control industries and governments. That's why they have the house on C-street. They also have heavy involvment in the oil and defense industries. They basically believe the ends justify the means.

[specsaregood]

Wow, They had a show on coast to coast this week where the author has a book on "the family". Those people are neo-con central. Mindblowingly corrupt it seems and using religion as its excuse.

Researcher Jeff Sharlet discussed the frightening connection between power and fundamentalism in a secretive cult called "The Family", that teaches Washington lawmakers that people chosen for leadership are above morality.

If Sanford was indeed part of this group, then good riddance and he doesn't belong anywhere near our movement.

The Path to 9-11 was definitely a sinister project to place the blame on Clinton. This type of "Christianity is indeed evil and a sin and is not Christianity. Yes, there are big wig types coming into the churches preaching evil but using clever and twisted reasoning to show how it's all good. This is what Rove would have blessed.

What's the issue - who has a problem with Christians?
