Nobody helped either, I had to walk that road all alone. No support groups existed that I knew of - only other dealers selling their own brand of the same drug.<br /><br />Just gotta make the break, quit cold turkey - it's the drug that's bad, not just the brand.

It would actually be shocking if an Armstrongite minister ever came up with something either original or mainstream.<br /><br />Making sacrifices, ie delayed gratification, is part of every successful person's life, and really isn't remarkable or even noteworthy. It's just part of the equation. Most of the ACOG ministers are impressed with, and do brag about what they allegedly gave up for God. Seems like a more spiritually enlightened approach would be to count sacrifice as one of the blessings, a thing held silently to oneself. Some would say that bragging like this makes you lose your reward. I guess that for Armstrongites, it's part of qualifying for your salvation.<br /><br />BBByker Bobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15602697337552385535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-226103369043606765.post-16834571447281474072013-06-13T22:51:13.557-07:002013-06-13T22:51:13.557-07:00hmmm, he was borrowing money so he could "giv...hmmm, he was borrowing money so he could "give" it to the work????<br /><br />that doesn't sound biblical at all...how can one give what he doesn't have?<br /><br /><br />and when you have a company credit card and a million dollar expense account, you don't need any personal posessions...<br /><br />businessmen do a similar thing today....all they own is in the company name, they own nothing personally.......so that is a red herring Mr.Pack.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-226103369043606765.post-20471293780649465622013-06-13T20:00:56.457-07:002013-06-13T20:00:56.457-07:00Oh, boo hoo!

The claim that God brought Dave Pack down to severe poverty just like God did to HWA in the early 1930s in order to humble HWA and prepare him for fulfilling the Great Commission in the global end time Work of God? <br /><br />Or, how about a divine healing<br />claim by Dave similar to the healing of GTA when he was very young?<br /><br />RichardLake of Fire Church of Godnoreply@blogger.com
