At some point JRS made a statement that was rather insulting to the South, in one of his sermons he referred to a black man in the bible, I think the man that helped Jesus carry His cross, but I am not sure, but JRS said that if he were in the South he would call him a N!&&$r,(I hate political correctness). I woke up right there, and started paying attention to JRS to see if he really did have all the wisdom and knowledge the he was supposed to have. You see, at that time the only black people I knew in Living Word Fellowship other than Larry Cotton were members of a church in the South, and and I also knew of dozens of churches in my town that had about fifty/fifty membership of black and white members worshiping God together in peace and harmony, with greater oneness than in the Walk churches. I should have gotten out right then, just the realization that JRS felt the Southern churches were not worth of his PAROUSIA when he went out on his little walk-about and traveled to DC and up in Canada etc. visiting churches. I doubt if he knew that there were any Walk churchs in the South. But there were, great churches full of wonderful people and NONE of the elders down here were pulling the mind $$#@s that were evident in the California churches.
I should have gotten out then but I held on, and for that I feel like an idiot.
