Meanwhile, the Ambassador College I had "fought and bled and
died" to found as GOD'S College was becoming completely secular.
Christ was being put out. The leaven of intellectualism was
flooding in leavening not only into the college, but beginning
to spread into the Church.
WHAT I HAVE NOT TOLD YOU BEFORE
Now I come to something I have felt I had to withhold from you
brethren. During these past few years when I sensed a CONSPIRACY
to bring about a complete "takeover" of the entire Church's Work--
virtually to PUT JESUS CHRIST OUT as well as myself--I went to
Garner Ted about it. He flatly denied everything of the kind and
assured me he did not want to be head of the Church--our talks
would end up in an embrace--and I would then appear on the platform
telling you brethren that Ted and I were solidly together--standing
back to back. I WROTE FOR YOU THE SAME THING--BECAUSE I BELIEVED
IT! I still believe there simply HAD TO BE a conspiracy, but I
attributed it entirely to Satan; I was willing to believe that Ted
and those close to him were not themselves conscious of the adroit
subtle cunning Satan was using in his conspiracy.
To protect my son's name and reputation, I HAVE covered up
for him--because I have said to him that I love him above all people
on earth.
But I know now that in my eagerness to show "LOVE" and to
protect my son's name, I have without realizing it been a "respecter
of persons;" that I have protected my son to the detriment and harm
it has brought to God's Church and Ambassador College! Of that I
now have to repent!
When Garner Ted maneuvered to shut off communication of what
REALLY was going on,--when he SHUT OFF ALL AUTHORITY ABOVE HIM--
he not only shut me off, but also HE SHUT OFF CHRIST AND GOD ALMIGHTY
WHO STAND ABOVE ME! Brethren, THIS WORK WAS BUILT BY THE LIVING JESUS
CHRIST! I was merely His instrument! But Christ has all but been
PUT OUT of Ambassador College in the effort to gain this world's
"accreditation" and the leaven has STARTED in the Church to get the
living CHRIST out of the CHURCH!
Garner Ted was maneuvering so that NO ONE DARED GO ABOVE HIM--
under threat of being fired! Many top ranking men of senior years
of service would give solemn AFFIDAVITS to that truth. Shutting
off all above him, my son, lusting for POWER, shut off also THOSE
ABOVE ME--Jesus Christ and Almighty GOD.
For a year those now in top administrative positions have
implored me to STEP IN and once again TAKE OVER COMPLETE CONTROL
UNDER CHRIST as it was until some ten years ago.
I say THIS CHURCH AND ITS WORK WAS BUILT BY THE LIVING CHRIST!
It was HIS SPIRIT that inspired, motivated this entire Work, but He
was being PUT OUT.
My son says he upheld me, even extolled me, before large
