Listen, George, you may
think you know the facts here, but trust me...you do
NOT!!
Here are the facts for the record:
Following the GC of 1979, Bro. NJ Wilson was asked by the powers that be over Harvest Time to become the main HT speaker.
Though Bro. Urshan had been the speaker and yet pastored, 'they' had made the decision that the new speaker not pastor as to devote his time to the broadcast and all that it involved.
Bro. W felt it was the will of God for he and his family at the time and resigned in October of that year...we (the members of South Flint Tabernacle) were devastated.
Bro. & Sis. W stayed in St. Louis about a year when he felt the call to Sacramento.
He did
NOT convince anyone to move to CA...no not one!!
Several families did, but
not by his urging.
Following his resignation from SFT, I was the first to leave, opting to align with the COOLJC for almost 24 years.
For me, as well as those who moved to CA and TX, the reasons we left were personal.
Those who moved bag and baggage to CA did so because they wanted to continue to sit under his ministry.
Though I disagree with him on many issues, the WPF being one of them, if he were here now, he would STILL be my pastor.
Some people just generate that kind of respect, and for the bystander, it is hard to understand, but I hope this will set your gift of suspicion to rest.
