For all those people who rely on 'new testament' dress codes and believe that it a shame for a man to have long hair, have you asked a man with a long beard why he hasn't properly shifted to a short beard? A long beard IS long hair. There's my 'Greek# 1532 barber' caution to the Michael Rood, Brent Burns and Joe Thornton types.
Previewing the location of an important meeting is a wise idea, especially if too many people are calling themselves 'black' instead of 'redeemed' in an area. Black Jeeps are as dangerous as a red Range Rover when words like 'Ode','Clifford' and "Dexter' are used and Eldad and Medad aren't mentioned or even considered. Wearing orange is not a 'safe' sign, especially if you understand colors. Orange means be alert in a 1970 Ford Mustang and orange roughy lines, but it is not part of the colors tied to the ark of the covenant or the chief musician's instruments.
James Anthony Hunt is bringing a guest speaker into his assembly, but James Anthony Hunt is really only a '1 year old' when it comes to adjusting to the Hebrew calendar, so he is still making many errors. Ideally, Mr. Hunt will mature over time, just like a hosta, so he is better able to protect those who choose to try to survive under him. In about 6 more years, he might be able to drop his comic antics, stop trying to trick his audience and just admit that the rich man who asked what he needed to do to 'be perfect' might have decided to become perfect. When there is no final disposition in an official report when a person leaves 'sad', only people who had further contact with the person know how they handled their sadness. Likewise, if you can start imagining a prophet loudly rebuking an adulterous woman as if a faithful father just caught her in the act of adultery with his only son, 'Go and sin no more' is more likely to put proper fear into the unfaithful than some soft-spoken words. Who knows if the adulterous woman stopped sinning as instructed, and who knows is the rich man did then go sell his belongings and donate to the poor?
I noticed and understood why several decent women left the June 4th assembly at 9th mile and Linwood before the gathering officially ended and before I left. There was plenty of offense coming out of the lips of James Anthony Hunt IF you already understand what spiritual offense is. Rambling on about car refinancing is not keeping the sabbath holy; car talk is as bad as buying a hockey bag with wheels. Hunt explained that he had been in the car wash and detailing business, but my first husband was in the 'car wash business' and my last husband was in the detailing business with me, the last having a tendency to make too many jokes and try to hold the attention of others, just as James Anthony Hunt was trying to do on June 4th. Since I was not forced to attend the service, I stayed as long as I could tolerate his offense, but then even I had to go on self-defense while wearing Detroit Lion gear and Oshawa General information. I exited peacefully, just like the other 3 women who exited, possibly because they also heard too much levity and not enough words of wisdom from Mr. Hunt. For some reason, Hunt seems to think that the best fisherman fish at night, but it's usually the most hungry or greedy men that fish at night because they couldn't catch enough fish during the day with the good intent to be home with their family where they BELONG and are needed during the night. This is still the middle of the week in history that the 7 day war occurred in Israel. 'Swift Sword' books are better to study than an 'X-Men' movie if you want to prepare for reality situations. Gander Mountain's unsafe 'Hunt, Fish, Camp' plan is not the same as 'The LORD rebuke you'.
When a 46 year old male claims his goal for 1 of 3 trips is to go to Disneyland, he is not on the right track in his financial decisions. Mr. Hunt also suggested that if you already have money in the bank, don't worry about trying to collect what is still owed to you; his suggestion is as bad as letting a thief go unpunished and as a result, end up as your unforgiven neighbor instead of your brother that obeys the commandments of HVHY. I do not donate money to people who are going to use it unwisely, and I now know that I do not need to continue to try to teach James Anthony Hunt how to mature in grace and knowledge. If pastors expect money when they teach, how is it they expect to get free instruction from their flock? I can't be part of the flock of a 1 year old, but until someone with more maturity corrects James Anthony Hunt, he is in danger of being part of the apostacy just like any other person who has gotten the right seed but who's 'soil condition' is too worldly yet. 'Disneyland' and car loan talk is not part of the kingdom of HVHY agenda.
Of course, I can be patient and kind to James Anthony Hunt because he was not unkind to me. What is sad is seeing decent women, probably holy, exiting a premises because the male in charge lacks discernment and certainly should not have been be trying to trick anyone intentionally. Todd R. Jackson tricked many people intentionally, and such men are as deceiving as the typical politician. Hopefully, Nehemia Gordon is able to get in and out safely from the Detroit metro area, just as any other messenger who is not at home often has to get in and out of places safely after delivering what might be a very unpopular but true message. Because I have an option, I know know I can return to the hockey rink on Friday nights, where I try to learn from and teach ;living stone' and Israel tribe principles instead of hearing about car refinancing.
Finally, when it comes to continued peaceful 'arguments about the actual date to celebrate Shavuot this year, those who still have bothered to pay attention to natural details say it is past, Michael Rood insists it is on June 19th this year, and Mr. James Anthony Hunt, Mr. Nehemia Gordon and myself all are in agreement on relying on the June 12th date for Shavuot this year. Nehemia Gordon is not a 1 year old in the faith, and even a 1 year old-like Mr. Hunt might have a better start in his transition game than Michael Rood. Since I do not read Hebrew, I am deciding to trust the Kerite Judah line rather than the motorcycling former Marine. If I am wrong , then the gathering on June 12th will be a good rehearsal for the gathering on June 19th, when I will be closer to home. If I, Nehemia and James are correct about the June 12th date, PERFECT! There is no shame in being correct, nor is there shame is accepting correction with humility.
Don't think I am an enemy of James Anthony Hunt even if I am an adversary for a while; he is as importsnt to a community as men like Dean Noonan of Oak Creek, WI. Opposing forces often help strengthen the weak during a battle if the minds and holy skills, just as the Pulaski Jazz ensemble used to challenge the Milwaukee Tech Jazz Ensemble to be the best that we could be.
