From another thread.
hahaha... greg, you forgot Tommy Gamble had a companion and his name was on the gospel meetings invitation, and those who attend their gospel meetings. By the way, Dennis J. has mentioned many workers in his days went out two and two= 2x2 also. I believe you were a 2x2 worker yourself and you didn't know it.
Actually, the companion is the "one other". I did not know his name. I checked out the ad and found his name listed as H. McKnight. The ad identifies him and T. Gamble as "THE PRESENT DAY TWO BY TWO APOSTLES".
You indicated words of (cited to) Dennis J. His posted words were "There is no recollection in my mind of having ever, myself, referred to the group or any of the workers as 2x2 or two by twos. I do think of them as the 2&2 ministry group, or two and two preachers, of which JC (who stayed in our home often when I was a child) was certainly the foremost among them in my world. When in that "work" I was taught we were 2 and 2 go preachers and thought of myself and all others in it as being such.." And further "Greg, so you totally disregard what I expressed, regarding being "2 and 2 go preachers?" No, of course it wasn't a name taken, however it was recognized as our identification."
I see a difference. Maybe others do not. Maybe there is no difference and I see (read into) something that is not there.
I see Nathan's identifier/'name of fellowship' for his self and all the friends and workers, past and present, as "2x2s" and as for Dennis identifying but not naming the workers "2 and 2 go preachers" and for me the friends and workers are "the friends and workers."
2x2 fellowship? You, bert, tommy gamble, and one other? There were more in the past? Did you know them?
