How much did they hire you for, Brad? Or did you voluntarily enter the work?

Overseers hire and fire workers but they don't pay unemployment.How much did they hire you for, Brad? Or did you voluntarily enter the work? I don't know about Brad, but when I went into the work I had been assured that the work was 'from the begining -- that it exclusivly represented God on the earth, and that every effort was made to follow the leadings of the spirit of Christ. Time has proven that 'the work' did NOT live up to any of these promises. -- Today, many even in the work will admit that these were NEVER really genuinely meant to part of it all. Deception has always been important in marketing 2x2 policy. Many proffess under these assumptions as well --- It takes years before some realize that they have been 'tricked into it'. A good many on this board are wittnesses of this. Edgar I find it amusing how many 2x2 supporters find it so hard to swallow their very own medicine. Brads posts are sarcastic at times and are expressed without the slightest claim of objectivity--- but they are made in exactly the same flavour and spirit of contempt as workers have used in their description of 'false religion' (that includes every other fellowship on the earth than their own.) the last 100 years. Now they are finding out what it tastes like!!

Overseers hire and fire workers but they don't pay unemployment.How much did they hire you for, Brad? Or did you voluntarily enter the work? I voluntered willingly by choice to enter the work. I knew I was NOT going to get a monthly salary. I knew all of my needs were going to be provided by the friends, food, clothing, places to sleep, money to pay for gas, meetings hall, etc..
I had far more positive experiences in the work than negative ones with the friends and workers. NOT every worker's experiences in the work were bad because I could recall many of my wonderful days, years, and good memories to remember were those days being a worker.
Did Jesus pay the 12 and 70 apostles as Itinerant preachers of the Gospel with a salary when he called them? I don't think so.

Thanks.

OK -- The connection was someone had asked him if he could expect pay as he had gone into the work voluntarily. The point I was making was that he while he was in the work he fulfilled the conditions (working without pay), but that the work had not honored the promises that were implied before he even considered going into the work. That is what my post is about -- sorry if I didn't make it clear. How your post, 'random tangent' fits into the thread is also a puzzle!!

"Random tangent" describes the highjacking of this thread that you did. The original post was about whether or not unemployment should be paid. You twisted the thread so it became about whether or not the truth can be traced back to the beginning. Hardly a connection. Start a new thread if you need to complain or vent but don't highjack please.
