POSSIBILITIES FOR SB TESTIMONY\u2026<\/p>\n
I am a member\u2026 (Mrs. Ingram if I have to give a name) and I work in Law Enforcement\u2026 member 4 yrs.<\/p>\n
I would like to share some experiences I have witnessed since becoming a member of PT. I was an atheist when I first came to the church \u2013 I had been first attracted by the human service ministry\u2026 but the miracles that happened without fail at every service changed my Opinion.<\/p>\n
I remember one older woman \u2013 Roxanna White of LA. came to a recent service \u2013 she had been crippled in a wheel chair for over 5 yrs. Pastor Jones thru the gift of revelation told the woman a number of things about her personal life and spoke the word to her\u2026 in a matter of seconds, the woman had been freed from the bonds of her affliction and was running around the auditorium jumping and praising the Holy Spirit working within Pastor Jones.<\/p>\n
Maybe one of the following:<\/p>\n
Another man \u2013 ROY HARRIS of S.F. was called out of a healing service and told that he had had 5 operations on his back \u2013 that he could not bend over at all\u2026 The Spirit reached out to this man as Pastor J spoke the word \u2013 and this brother was doing deep knee bends before the entire congregation. His pain had left him and his bones have become flexible again.<\/p>\n
\u00a0\u2013 a woman \u2013 ROSETTA FARROW of Stockton had a bad spinal injury which caused Drs. to put her in a 47 lb. traction around her neck\u2026 She had lost the use of her arms and legs. She was taking 4 to 8 codeine and radium pills for the excruciating pain she was going thru. Pastor Jones then send the Spirit of love and Diving Compassion to her \u2013 and she was instantly healed \u2013 She now has complete use of her arms and legs \u2013 takes no medication\u2026 and has been released from treatment.<\/p>\n
another man \u2013 JAMES PUGH of RV [Redwood Valley] was healed of many, many things that he was suffering with for so long. He was healed of terminal growth, of heart trouble and diabetes. The life was literally draining from him. Drs. gave him no hope. He came in faith the [to] Pastor Jones miraculous ministry and was delivered from all his afflictions. He now works on a hard physical job for many hrs. a day \u2013 even tho he is not a young man by society’s standards \u2013 he works with the energy of one 20 yrs. younger than he is.<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u2013 But what I consider equally important as the miracle healings \u2013 is the dynamic human services ministry of PT. Thru Jim’s example of genuine love and concern for others\u2026 our church has established programs and facilities to meet many varied needs that come to our attention.<\/p>\n
Recently one of our Convalescent centers was commended for most highly rated for its level of service and care in the entire Redwood region.<\/p>\n
\u00a0\u2013 Many of the college students are formerly drug users and have been rehabilitated thru our church program\u2026 one young man was on a $200.00 a day habit drug habit \u2013 and when he joined the church \u2013 he quit his drug use \u2013 and his body suffered absolutely no withdrawal symptoms. He is now working productively for peace and brotherhood.<\/p>\n
\u00a0\u2013 there are all races, all religious backgrounds, all educational levels, tho a great percentage of our membership consists of professional people; there are all manner of people coming together to serve god in the highest way \u2013 as Jesus did \u2013 in service to our fellow man\u2026<\/p>\n
What I he asks about J pictures?<\/p>\n
possible questions from him\u2026<\/p>\n
Have you ever been healed personally??<\/p>\n
Yes \u2013 many times \u2013 one in particular \u2013 was that I had suffered with constant kidney infections since I was a child. My mother had taken me to so many specialists that I was not only losing faith in medical science, but I was resigned that I would have this painful malady with me always. But it was in my very first healing service that I was called out by Pastor Jones personally. He then told me details of my life that I had mentioned to no one in the room. He clapped his hands and spoke the word of healing and relief to my body \u2013 and I have never once been bothered with this kidney problem since.<\/p>\n
Have you ever seen anyone raised from the dead?<\/p>\n
Oh, yes \u2013 so very often\u2026 I have never seen it fail \u2013 when someone suffers a heart attack or stroke or whatever causes them to fall\u2026 Pastor Jim reaches out to them in deep love and compassion and they are revived\u2026 One such woman was Dorothy Worley who had fallen down a long flight of concrete stairs at a miracle meeting. It was obvious to those around her and to the registered nurses, that her neck had been broken and that she was dead.<\/p>\n
——<\/p>\n
BB-6-RRRR3<\/p>\n
Pastor Jim slowly walked to the back of the auditorium and with an air of dignity and quiet reverence \u2013 he placed his hand upon her head and she was instantly revived.<\/p>\n
Question \u2013 What or how do you account for what you seen of the miracles and power<\/p>\n
that your pastor is said to possess?<\/p>\n
“I’m not sure how the Spirit works thru Pastor J. \u2013 all I know is that he has more power than anyone else I have ever heard, and he only uses it for good.<\/p>\n
In fact \u2013 as long as. I\u2019ve been here \u2013 I’ve never seen him do one selfish act. He won’t even eat until he knows that all of the people have been fed. He makes certain that everyone has a ride home from each church service. When there are things left undone and overlooked by members of the congregation \u2013 Jim is the first one to tend to the unfinished task\u2026 whether is mopping the floor or unstopping a clogged toilet with his hand. Pastor J takes no thought for himself oe his own well -being\u2026 his constant concern is for others.<\/p>\n
Past. J is the highest manifestation of LOVE that I know\u2026 this is a term that is misused more than any other. I am speaking of love in terms of Serving others and meeting peoples needs \u2013 as being the highest manner in which a person can live their life.<\/p>\n
and J is carrying out the scriptures according to Math. 25 \u2013 by establishing a vast ministry of human service, and is leading thousands of others to follow in his Chris- like example.<\/p>\n

SB #1<\/p>\n
1 \u2013 What or who do you see God to be?<\/p>\n
God \u2013 to me is socialism \/\/ if pure socialism were to be cultivated \u2013 all peoples needs would be met \u2013 all adversity and misery would be alleviated\/\/ JJ is the personification of the principle of socialism+\/\/ \/\/ before I came to the group \u2013 I thought god to be the commonality of the universe \u2013 that is \u2013 something like the common binder of the life force that flows thru everything. I never perceived god as being work, love \u2013 as being something very lovingly practical \u2013 and of benefit to all people \u2013 I guess I thought god was more generous and kind to some than others \u2013 and the majority of people at got left out. JJ as the socialist god makes my ideal of \u2019God\u2019 totally perfect and fair and just. I do not need to reflect on where or who or why of JJ \u2013 just that he is \u2013 the total profound goodness, love and infinite knowledge and wisdom \u2013 full of compassion for the whole of life \u2013 to the very smallest of us.<\/p>\n
2 \u2013 What do you feel is the best course for the church to take now and in the future?<\/p>\n
This is a difficult one \u2013 I guess it depends on my outlook \u00a0for the future. I don\u2019t think the future looks good \u2013 that is \u2013 I do not know if we shall over get out of the mess we are in \u2013 the world that is. I do feel that those of us in the church \u2013 and others (hardly any) in the world who might be in touch with the ideal, we may get thru this stage. But as far as the hell of the world \u2013 I have\u2028my doubts that we who are alive now will see any great advancement of levels of thinking and feeling. It seems change for good \u2013 sensitivity \u2013 is so very slow \u2013 and in many ways \u2013 Just not feasible In our present consciousness.<\/p>\n
I feel that the level of socialist consciousness has to be constantly professed and held as the only answer and the only way \u2013 which it is\u2026 If a core of us could learn to expound those ideals \u2013 changes will come \u2013 slowly \u2013 but in the end \u2013 I cannot help but think \u2013 so much of it is useless \u2013 I have my doubles that the consciousness of the masses is able to grasp socialism without total destruction of the present world situation.<\/p>\n
In this case \u2013 it may come down to the fact that even if we don\u2019t get thru this with any great amount of world change \u2013 we can say that we tried to live the true principle of life \u2013 socialist awareness. That to me is the important thing. So wo go along \u2013 with the current \u2013 expounded socialist ideals as best we can in the corruption of this society. I would rather the solidarity of staying here and being persecuted \u2013 and all going in this way \u2013 than to leave in fragments and to watch the weaker of us give in to the evil of capitalism. I would rather see the death of all we worked for than to have people selling out.<\/p>\n

SB #2<\/p>\n
3 \u2013 What do you feel about HEAVEN, HELL AND IMMORTALITY?<\/p>\n
\u00a0\u2013 heaven \u2013 is a socialist + society\/\/ hell \u2013 is this world exactly as it is \u2013 the daily hell of having to live in this corruption \u2013 to have to deal with the walking dead, vicious ones around us\/\/ to watch our animals being tortured and so casually killed\/\/ to watch our childrens minds being penetrated by the insanity of the system\/\/ to watch our elders disgraced and discarded\/\/ to watch the total degradation of humanity \u2013 to see it at every turn \u2013 to feel its ugliness within our own being \u2013 that is the worst hell ever imagined.<\/p>\n
heaven \u2013 (to go back\u2013) is a society where the individual becomes important in relation to others\/\/ where all needs are met \u2013 physical and mental\/\/ where wo all feel the importance of working together with minimized self-interest. Where all forms of life is revered \u2013 and we are all sensitized to the pulse of life \u2013 and have an accepting love and concern. Heaven is a socialistic society \u2013 and if that is indeed not heaven \u2013 than \u2013 that is all I want\u2026<\/p>\n
4 \u2013 Do you believe in the VIRGIN BIRTH and the Vicarious Atonement? (and who cares?)<\/p>\n
\u00a0\u2013 virgin birth \u2013 no\/\/\/\/ vicarious atonement \u2013 no \u2013 we all have to carry our own cross \u2013 make our own decisions (with the profound example of JJ and socialism) \u2013 and we must all ultimately be responsible for the consequences of our actions.<\/p>\n
5 \u2013 Who in your opinion is the greatest man who over lived??<\/p>\n
easy \u2013 JJ<\/p>\n
6 \u2013 What is your main philosophy of Life?<\/p>\n
My goal I guess would be toward selflessness \u2013 in the example of JJ \u2013 and for the purpose of socialism. In my more contemplative moments \u2013 I know that I do not expect (or try not to) anything out of life. Why should I even think that I have any right to get any happiness out of life? I have found that as my expectations of life lowered (in my own self-interest) \u2013 then the happier I was. I try not to set up any personal goals \u2013 I would like to become nothing \u2013 I have to work on submitting my will to the betterment of others, and I have so very far to go \u2013 I do feel more realistic than I ever have \u2013 and am thankful to JJ for the awareness of my limitations \u2013 and of my potential. Ho has given so very much \u2013 and I am so unappreciative. I hate being human \u2013 I hate to face what it means to be me. But JJ’s love and the purpose of have given me hope and a security as never before. And the awareness that thru socialism I can trust others as well and myself \u2013 and work together for something worthwhile.<\/p>\n
(back up to # 3 \u2013 I forgot IMMORTALITY) \u2013 to me \u2013 this life cycle thing \u2013 is like one giant obstacle course \u2013 with the plan laid out for each of us \u2013 with the end result being<\/p>\n
——<\/p>\n
BB-6-TTTT3<\/p>\n
SB # 3<\/p>\n
the same \u2013 we all have to learn the same lessons \u2013 for our own good and self-awareness. We learn them at different speeds and at different times \u2013 in diff. ways. But we all go to the same school. I suppose that if we should ever get thru these grades \u2013 maybe someday we might have a choice to quit \u2013 to cease to exist. That to me would be immortality \u2013 not to exist forever \u2013 but to have the choice of not to exist at all\u2026<\/p>\n
7 \u2013 What do you think the future holds for America?<\/p>\n
I think (and I hope to see) that America will fall down completely\/\/ It is built on corruption, greed and insanity. It is rotten thru and thru. There is nothing left (was there over?) good in this country. It seems it has always been built on pain and misery. I know capitalism will fall \u2013 but not before the final death throes of fascism. This we can expect \u2013 \/\/\/ that in the last days \u2013 there will be such horror and destruction and disregard for life, as never before. A giant will be falling this time \u2013 and the fall will be great\u2026 hallelujah!<\/p>\n
8 \u2013 Do you believe that any and all kinds of miracles are possible?<\/p>\n
yes \u2013 I do\/\/ I have not the faintest awareness of the tremendous power force of love, goodness, and justice in the universe. We can call it JJ and say it is socialism, I would not even try to analyze the source or all the possibilities of its expression. We are the most highly honored people in the world \u2013 to have JJ here with us \u2013 to have him just pour out his spirit and his energy for us \u2013 to the nth \u2013 degree. To have the power and truth of S [Socialism] \u2013 as a workable solution to our misery.<\/p>\n
My doubts would probably come in relation to the frailty of our human nature. I think probably the hardest miracles are those of changing the individual \u2013 that painful and sometimes seemingly unattainable goal of self-awareness. When I see someone like J [Jack] Beam \u2013 and that situation \u2013 things appear so hopeless \u2013 to know that he was in the direct aura of JJ and immersed in the principle of S \u2013 for so long \u2013 and he did such shit. And to realize the very few people besides JJ that I would ever trust to follow S \u2013 that is painful to acknowledge.<\/p>\n
But then I see the tremendous miracles of personality change and goal reorientation \u2013 to see staunch capitalists be converted to socialists \u2013 then how can I question the possibility of any and all miracles.<\/p>\n
9 \u2013 What do you feel are the faults of the church?<\/p>\n
\u00a0\u2013 our pitiful human nature\u2026 we take advantage of JJ deep love and compassion \u2013 we are so insensitive to the needs of others \u2013 and of our own responsibility. I feel JJ\u2019s leadership is the wisest, most loving and compassionate \u2013 I do not feel that JJ can be wrong. I trust his judgement and his infinite wisdom \u2013 and would<\/p>\n

BB-6-TTTT4<\/p>\n
SB # 4<\/p>\n
like to think that I would follow him anywhere. I want to be filled with his spirit and to emulate him as much as I am able.<\/p>\n
I feel that we are the faults of the church \u2013 we fail to take on each other\u2019s responsibility \u2013 and to put ourselves to the test for others. We talk great and shout and dance \u2013 but we lose our zest when it comes to practical labor of love \u2013 for socialism.<\/p>\n
10 \u2013 Are you saved and filled with the Holy Spirit?<\/p>\n
\u00a0\u2013 yes \u2013 I was saved when I was convinced of the rightness and truth of socialism. I was saved when I saw and realized that JJ was the ultimate goodness and source of truth and love and justice. And I am filled with the Holy, righteous, loving spirit of Socialism. It has a hold on me \u2013 it has penetrated to the depths of my being \u2013 there can be no other way but this one \u2013 there can be no other leader of mankind than JJ. We have no other choice but to follow that which is so obviously and consistently holy and Just. There is no place at to go \u2013 but to the source.<\/p>\n

from SB<\/p>\n
suggestion for MONTHLY EVALUATIONS:<\/p>\n
I suggest having the entire PC fill out a short evaluation sheet each month \u2013 to be turned into either CL or TB (say it is to be handed by them directly to the office \u2013 and not to be handled by anyone else \u2013 to insure privacy etc). These sheets can be folded in half \u2013 and with name on the back \u2013 and date \u2013 and then they can open them and staple them together to J to read.<\/p>\n
1 \u2013 Current self \u2013 analysis: I feel that even if people lie about this \u2013 they still have to do some thinking \u2013 and even if they say what they think anyone wants to hear \u2013 we can still find patterns in their writing. And even can read between the lines to what they may really be feeling etc.<\/p>\n
2 \u2013 List people you feel may need special counselling, consideration etc. (due to some problem they, pressure, concern etc. they may be have \u2013 give specifics with each name)<\/p>\n
(this is another way of perhaps saying \u2013 who do you feel is a potential traitor this week or month?)<\/p>\n
3 \u2013 Suggestions, criticisms, and\/or observations:<\/p>\n
(this may help people \u2013 esp. the quiet ones or peripheral \u2013 who may not feel they have access to the office. And they may feel they can more readily give their ideas in this way.)<\/p>\n
Just a suggestion as to how we may notice traitors \u2013 in the making etc. before they really explode. It may not work at all.<\/p>\n
I found when reading the P.L. evaluations \u2013 that patterns did show up even when different people wrote about the same person, etc.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
