One of the most productive things we do on this forum, is take a look at the mindset of the members of Living Word, and we look at the theology, and the beliefs of Living Word. When we do that, and compare that to the bible, it is productive. I think it would be productive to take a look at an answer to one of the posts to the gentleman that Lily Rose and I have been discussing. He left the Walk at the same time I did, and in fact, he went in just one year before I did. Here is a cut and paste of what one of the Living Word members wrote to him. I show this because this describes perfectly, in this member's own words, the mental status of the believers of the unfortionate victims, those that sadly are stuck in Living Word Fellowship. In this post, this person actually says that "God is not moving in the Earth any more, that is the reason that it is up to THEM."

Mike,
Even if Gary and Marilyn have made mistakes, as long as I am fully committed to them, I am under their spiritual covering. And if I am completely obedient to them, then they will answer to God if they've made an err. The main thing is to completely give myself to Gary and Marilyn, to commit and focus my spirit on them, to forget the past and any mistakes that may have been made, and really reach into the next level.
We believe everything that you do, Mike, and more. We believe in the Bible. We believe that John spoke a living Word from God and that he prophesied that the Kingdom of God is here on earth in 1979. John Robert Stevens was like John the Baptist to us. He moved in the spirit of Elijah. He was like voice calling out in the wilderness, "The Kingdom of God is here! Repent and prophesy it into existence!" John prophesied it, then He died, and in his death he took down Satan. I SAW SATAN FALL FROM HEAVEN LIKE LIGHTNING!
God is no longer moving on this earth. That's why it's up to us as His Sons to be a creative force in this earth. And that is an awesome force to be reckoned with. Marilyn's ministry is to preserve and protect John's Word from all who want to destroy it. Gary was commissioned by John to continue to bring the Word of God to a world that is longing for the truth.
Now that you have the truth in its very essence, you are responsible for it, and God will judge you according to what you do with it.
Mike, you are a very sincere man, and I hope that you are able to receive this truth into your heart. I bind the spirit of deception that is keeping you from the truth and peace that you once knew. Buy the truth and sell it not! The truth is in you. John spoke it to you, and you have received it into your heart. I believe that your are finding it, and I believe that God is showing you His love by leading you to this board.
When you are ready to come back, Gary and Marilyn are waiting for you with open arms.
