I've heard from a source that 3abn is currently broke. So broke that Danny can't use his jet. H?as anyone else heard this? Are people working for 3ABN wondering when they get their next paycheck? -------------------- "Any fact that needs to be disclosed should be put out now or as quickly as possible, because otherwise the bleeding will not end."

I just asked the question because, I too, am confused. I don't know the man who has been chosen to be the new president. I know they needed to get somebody besides Danny, and that part I am sure is a step int he right direction, how far, remains to be seen, but still it is a step. I guess I am just disturbed at this thing with 3ABN not aligning themselves with the church to which they are so closely affiliated. There could even be a good reason for it. I think I read something where they may have described themselves that way in order not to implicate the church in anyway in the legalities of suing another Adventist. I can even take that as an explanation. However, that explanation is not being given by none of Danny's supporters. Instead they are saying that the SDA message is a nondenominational message. From Savedthru3abn.org, "Miracle of 3ABN" page: ..."Our church growth has exploded in the last twenty years. Elder Gilley attributes the impact of 3ABN's worldwide network as one of the main reasons for this growth! Since 1997, 3ABN has enjoyed a formal working agreement with the General Conference of Seventh-day Adventists to support each other in proclaiming the gospel of Jesus Christ to the whole world. Our network is accepted as a supporting ministry of the Seventh-day Adventist Church." ... ********************************************************** This post has been edited by Artiste: Sep 5 2007, 05:18 PM |

Does someone need to explain to the gentleman, that he's got it all wrong, according to what they have plainly stated in their court documents? -------------------- "It's important that people know what you stand for. It's equally important that they know what you won't stand for."

Now, now, did you not see where either appletree or FHB said that 3ABN put that in the court papers to spare the church any embarrassment or liability in the present court case? They were looking out for the church they love soooo much! I had to apologize for missing this one. Here is the link supplied to me by FHB regarding this statement:
Reason For Non Denomination Designation In Court Papers However, they are also arguing that the message that 3ABN and the Adventist church preaches is non denominational, because it is not just for Adventist, but for the world. Now, you can take you pick from those two explanations. -------------------- TTFN
