Now at some point don’t you think Tony would step back and look at all the names on our ever growing list, reflecting on the people these names go to and say,
“I__WONDER__IF__IT’S__ME.”
Tony cannot do this because he see's himself as the victim. In his eyes we are all just jealous of his relationship with the Lord, his family, his leadership, his status and posessions... and therefore we are attacking him.
He cannot allow himself as an alleged 'Apostle' to make a mistake, be wrong or responsible. If he does, then it would reveal the depth of his humanity and in his eyes will show weakness to those he is trying to lead. Somewhere in his twisted sense of the truth he is believing the hype and has seemingly lost touch with reality... or has he?
What if all this is planned?
What if, as a chess player, he is thinking 5 or 10 moves ahead?
Can anyone tell me why would the Elders, the supposed fathers and protectors of the church, after reading the testimonies of those who have left the body do so little to reconcile?
Did the Elders actually read any of the letters or listen to the testimonies?
If not, why?
Were they told not to?
Did they lie when they said they had weighed all of the facts and given Tony a two week slap on the wrist?
Have they tried to cover all of this up?
How is this unhealthy body going to plant 3 new churches in the greater Sacramento area?
Where are the much needed funds going to come from?
Is something already being done behind the scenes?
Will these three churches all be tithing directly to Tony?
Who will be the approved hired hand... and can the hired hand of a hired hand really be a pastor?
Will each church have it's own Elders and/or some kind of representation, or will the current board govern all three bodies?
Just like you can count the number of seeds in an apple but you cannot count the number of apples in a seed... how many more families will be subjected to the verbal, spiritual and possible physical abuse of the hired hand?
people at rlc, if that is still the name of the church... how long will you let yourselves be decieved! How long will you subject not only you, but your family to the lies and manipulations of the hired hand and his merry 'yes' men? If only half of what has been posted here is true, and it has not been repented for by the leadership... what are they waiting for?
