QUOTE Amazing Facts/3ABN
FYI! News Release: 8/2/2007 Latest News on Amazing Facts and 3ABN Merger Dear friend, As you are aware, Amazing Facts and 3ABN have been in ongoing talks regarding a potential merger over the last few months. I believe it is important to update you on the current status of those talks. After several months of prayer and careful research regarding structural dynamics, Amazing Facts and 3ABN have decided not to move forward with a merger or an alliance at this time. As always, these two dynamic, soul-winning ministries will continue their supportive relationship in ministry, including the upcoming Here We Stand revival series in September. Please remember to keep both of these ministries in your prayers, that God continues to guide each one as we move forward with the Lord’s work in these end-times.

This is quite interesting in the light of the recent AToday article featuring the interview with Don Schneider.
I wonder if there will be further information about what "structural dynamics" prevented the merger? PB -------------------- Got Peace?

Hey! This is good news... This is what we wanted not to happen because all along, we have expressed that we didn't want to see an honest endeavor, like Amazing Facts, get tainted by Danny Shelton. Danny doesn't get to look down on us now & show us the proverbial middle digit. Danny wanted this to happen so he could infer that the leading evangelist in the SDA church endorsed his divorce & re-marriage. We have helped prevent this merger through our opposition & our efforts to contact Amazing Facts & warn them of the negativity that could taint them by teaming up with 3ABN.
To all of you who helped prevent this merger... THANK YOU!  To Danny... HA!  |

All I can say is, PRAISE THE LORD!!!
And yes, I concur, thank you all here on bsda for helping for this end, glory to our LORD! We are not to slack, but keep on praying for a total overhaul from the top unto many of those on the board -- the enablers of corruption , for the greater glory of our LORD! What would be good, if Doug and af replace ds and 3ABN's board all together.  PS, can it be that Danny is --  ?

My gut feeling is that when Danny decided to go ahead with the lawsuit that became a wakeup call to the SDA church that all was not right at 3abn. IMO the lawsut was the final straw in many peoples mind. It showed the true colors of Danny and 3abn.

QUOTE(lowender @ Aug 2 2007, 10:09 PM) To all of you who helped prevent this merger... THANK YOU! Now if their donations have been down a bit because of all of this, should we consider reversing the trend to let them know that we appreciate their choice? |
