But I really enjoyed the Carnagie techniques we were taught. It made us better salesmen indeed. PFAL classes were rollig down the pike as we applied our Carnagie techniques. They work. Another 6th Corps guy taught us a speed reading class, taken from Ms.
Evelyn Woods speed reading courses that he was familiar with. I actually liked a lot of those classes better than some boring bible teachings. Sorry, I digress. But then again, my truth needs no defense so Phuq you. Of course I do! I still have the syllabus up there in that bookcase! My wife non TWI used to marvel at how I could manipulate er motivate people to do what I wanted them to do I told her I learned it in the cult, but that now I only use my powers for good!
She often wonders what other "powers" I learned I think I'll just keep her guessing on that! I never went to any corps meetings, but in 18 years I never heard that phrase used outside the context of witnessing. Jesus says there is John But who's Jesus? He was just some cult leader talking about his 12 cult members, right?
Gee, His cult grew pretty good, didn't it? He must've used mind control. Johniam, I'm thinking that Jesus probably never told his disciples "Truth needs no defense" if they asked him a question and also willing to bet that he probably didn't instruct them to use that phrase either.
And there's a great chasm of difference between Jesus' ministry and TWI But I really enjoyed the Carnegie techniques we were taught. PFAL classes were rollig down the pike as we applied our Carnegie techniques. He said thy word IS truth, not thy word contains truth. If that's being narrow minded, so be it. TWI was just the messenger. Of course He never taught that.
He didn't speak English, ha ha. But on at least one occasion He showed them how. Remember Mark 9 when that man was putting Jesus disciples on the defensive because they couldn't heal his kid? Then the man tried the same crap on Jesus but Jesus basically asked the man if he could believe.
He didn't go on the defensive. That canyon just became a crack in the sidewalk. You can post now and register later. If you have an account, sign in now to post with your account.

Does twi still teach this? There's a question that's been burning in my mind since my last post on another thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options Abigail Posted July 18, WordWolf Posted July 18, The saying was vpw's excuse to cover his gross deficiencies. Many times he either didn't understand fully what he was quoting from another writer like his inconsistent explanations of "allos" and "heteros" and "all without distinction" in one place being "all with a distinction" in another place.
Furthermore, a number of times he just pulled explanations out of his donkey. How could he justify that? He could NOT- so he made a virtue of his deficiency.
That was where we learned that this is how people learn to "apologize for being a Christian. The actual meaning, which I just grabbed in about 10 seconds by typing "what is apologetics" into a browser, is " The term apologetics comes from the Greek apologia, which means "defense" or "answer.
However, as you all should remember, he never studied Greek texts or even Church history which would have educated him on the development of early apologetics , but he himself said his specialty was "Homiletics", or "Preaching".
The softest option available, really. BTW, wikipedia has this to say on "apologetics" Did he do that deliberately, knowing what the term meant and deliberately lying about it? Or was he so incompetent that he couldn't even open a collegiate dictionary to find its definition, which is something our supposed "Greek scholar" should have been able to rattle off from memory? Take your pick-it was one or the other. And of course, I'm evil for even mentioning it. I'll put that on my tab.
This was instilled from the beginning by vpw himself. And if your memory is that was the SOLE context in which that statement was made, your memory is rather selective.. Tom Strange Posted July 18, WordWolf Posted July 19, Posted July 19, Tom Strange Posted July 19, Posted July 19, edited.
Wordwolfe, if you are not a lawyer you ought to be one. You're good. Then guess what he developed with VPW's approval. Mo Tech!! Quite often it is the belief in difficulty that makes something difficult. A belief in ease would make it easier. Do not wait until the conditions are perfect to begin. Beginning makes the conditions perfect.
Love is heaven and fear is hell. Where you place your attention is where you live. You always have energy to do what you are passionate about. Effort is not required to deserve love, but it is required to remember it. Enlightenment does not ask you to be perfect; it simply asks you to find perfection right where you stand. Even while you strive to improve your life, you are whole, well, and perfect right where you stand. Every choice before you represents the universe inviting you to remember who you are and what you are here to do.
