If you could tell Jack Hyles one thing today, what would it be?

I think that what a lot of these guys tried to imply is that they never had enough money to live on and somehow God miraculously supplied all their needs because of their great faith. The emphasis was not their frugality it was their faith.

I have heard/seen many HAC-trained leaders who somehow think it is "spiritual" to work on insufficient sleep or live on an insufficient salary.  They imply (as I stated before) that God is supplying them energy or extra income, and He would do the same for us, the sheeple, if only we had the level of faith, devotion, and works that they (the leaders) do.

The point wasn't that they made so little, the point was look at how big I am because I'm trust God like this.

It's just like those weight-loss testimonials that claim the weight loss was achieved simply by taking this one supplement. Look at me! I lost 50 pounds by taking Gingko Biloba! But they fail to mention they also went on a calorie-restricted diet and undertook a rigorous exercise program.  False advertising.  The sin of omission.

How about: "For me, to do the work of the  ministry is so important that I gladly accept inadequate pay. It's a choice I made about how I wish to do my Christian walk through this life, and while I do need to supplement my income in other ways in order to support my family,  it is worth it to me in order to do what I get to do."

They never spoke that way. They were never real.

Thank you.  I felt like I was taking crazy pills there for a bit.  You put it better than I did.  :D

I also see how sword misunderstood what I was saying.
 
Why did you not value honesty?  Why were you so deceitful?  Was it money and power that you sought or did you feel like the end justified the means?

I wouldn't tell him anything. HE needs no information from me. I would ask him what being around Jesus was like. Tell me about Jesus.

Have you considered that he might not be able to tell you about Jesus because he might very well be in Hell?
 
WE don't know for sure where Hyles it doesn't affect our lives in any way, shape, or form...so what is the use of speculating? Only Hyles and God knows where he is for the time being. Let's forget those things that are behind and reach for the things that are ahead.

i pretty much agree with average joe..... ...and didn;t somebody in the bible get in big trouble for trying to conjour up the spirit of someone long ago dead, for the purposes of conversation?... ........ and besides...... .if it even was possible... (or God permitted us)... to do that and talk to people who have passed away.... jack hyles would not even be on my list........ ... regardless of where he got conjoured up from....... .
