.... you make a career out of 'troubling' children (and explaining that it's God speaking to them).

You know you are a worker when you felt troubled by the work. Brad

You know you are a worker if you say "The world will use you up and just throw you away" but haven't a clue that that's what your overseer will do with you when you get old and sick. Brad

That is sad, i never thought of it that way... to me workers were like hero's. Were you really a worker? Yes, I was a worker and actively promoted the 2x2 way. When I began to ask questions, I was not given answers. I was taught lies that put horrible conclusions in my head. I got out because of ill health and gradually recoverd. I lost my reverance for workers after knowing what they were like and began to ask questions again. My health declined again, but I stuck with it. I got my friends to asking questions and many had to part company with me because they were going crazy with persecution from workers and subsequent stress. I was living with Phu Nguyen in Portland. Dave Nealon told him I was mental and that he must kick me out of his house. Phu asked me to leave saying basicly 'I want to be friends, but I cannot take it any longer. I need you to leave, take as much time as you need. I have to do this for my healt's sake, I'm going crazy.' My dad would come over to visit with me after he got off work. My uncle Jon Lewis thought I was mental. I was left alone and confronted the workers several times on my own. They ridiculed me and told me blatant lies. I left the group, knowing that they were liars and did not know God, didn't care that they didn't follow the Bible and were deceiving others. Dad kept visiting me and trying to "help" me. He caught on that I was telling the truth and started to ask questions himself. He proved for himself that the workers are cold and heartless as are many elders. He left the cult about 6 months ago or so. I walked down the street in front of my place about a year ago and prayed to God that he would bring me into fellowship with real Christians. I told God I believed that there were many Christians but I just didn't know them yet. God put me into fellowship with Christians about a week later. I had to rethink much of my life but the recovery has been speeded by reading Christian books and getting many thoughts straightened out. God rules! Praise God! wooo hooo. Go God go! Praise God !

You know you're a worker when you say you believe things in the Bible but your life doesn't show it. Brad

You know you're a worker when you get upset when people make decisions about what you believe based on your actions. Brad

You know you're a worker when half of your friends believe you're an apostle and half of them don't. Brad

You know you are a worker when you are invited to a friends home for a visit, then you are spontaneously invited to stay over for lunch and you say pizza?, no time to cook a meal, huh?

You know you are a worker when you cannot spend more than three years in a field because you don't have any more cliches to say. Brad
