Missions- that would be a priority in my knowledge so you wouldn't be telling me anything new? I am sorry to say that it is not the fact you go wherever , whenever for missions-you as well as anyone else involved should and do know better than than!

Not being defensive or trying to be cruel just don't appreciate anyone being a part of something and talking out of the corners of one's mouth

The missons minded will go anywhere that believes the same salvational doctrine to promote it.. If someone is hell-bent on leaving I see no problem is going to help them with something that you a passionate about.. AFter all he was obviously invited and had not committed to join..

And I know who this is and happen to know they don't talk out of the corners of their mouth...

Headquarters building and the whole enchilada.

Firstly I am in communications with guys who are part of this group(of which I am not nor going to be) and they have said nothing of this.

Maybe they don't know or maybe they don't feel it's for them to tell if they do.

Doesn't mean it might not be happening.

The Secrecy of Leadership within this group runs deep...they rarely let folks in until they are ready....

This is nothing new....ask folks around them.... you'll get the same info...

Not to fond of the adjective used to describe their leaving (my mother taught me that was cussin' ) - however, if they weren't determined to leave, why did they start making plans before Res 4 passed? And I'm pretty well convinced that this was a done deal in their minds long before Res 4 passed - that just gave them an out. (And for the record, I'm not convinced that Res 4 is such a great thing. Time will tell.)

There are many on that list that I deeply respect and admire - some of them, I question why they are leaving and wonder how it will affect their fellowship with some of us who don't leave. To me - that is the saddest thing about all of this. It is tearing up families and friendships that had been able to fellowship in the past - despite some difference of opinion regarding some standards.

Your mother was a wise woman, Sweet Pea! What did you say her initials were again? With all the developments and letters coming to light, I see some real wounds being formed in people I like and respect from both sides of the issue. The solidarity I have known from my childhood is being fractured and will take a miracle from God to restore. Sad! I like them all and see the positive and negatives from both sides. Being in the "middle" isn't comfortable on airplanes nor friends.
