With all due respect, I don't have the same warm fuzzy feelings for John Miller. He is no different from any of the other members of the "Apostolic" Company. It's easy to be amiable when you're popular and the sheep hang on your every word. He gave words and direction that hurt people's lives. (Ours included--I was married at the time.) Many shepherds (me included) and sheep gave forty years and weren't lauded for their service to TLW. Neither did they receive pensions (even modest ones). John set people out of the fellowship too. Maybe he's getting a taste of his own medicine. Was he really that naive? Ellen Miller put in 40 years too. Did she receive a modest pension? Too often the wives of TLW ministries and dare I say it, "Apostles," when deemed unequally yoked, faded into the background while their husbands went on to greater glory in TLW. The sheep are in a real transition and it wouldn't surprise me at all if John finds himself with his own flock. Sheep do tend to go back to what they know. All of that said, my brother still worships Marilyn and believes the lies being told that "nothing has changed." If not for all the harm Gary and Marilyn have inflicted on so many, I would say they are absolutely laughable. No one in the real world could ever take them seriously!
