Uncle Willie Jamieson was head worker of the west coast of US until his death and then Eldon Tenniswood became head worker. Dick Middleton is the current head worker though Ed Alexander and Harold Bennett are powerful head workers in the region. | ||

http://www.lifelineoutreach.com/shieldofchrist/ --I think the Chad Moore who owns this website may be kin to John Beaber. Both hail from good old Texas. Charles Goodnight professed in Texas as an old man and was baptised at the 1929 Happy TX convention I believe. | ||

http://www.homestead.com/prosites-hobarker/topicsinbible.html Nathan Barker's website. This man is a former worker who strongly defends the "Truth" fellowship of the workers and friends. Interesting stuff... | ||

Texas workers under the control of Ira Hobbs have threatened to kick him out of the "Truth" fellowship for posting information about the Truth in Texas online. Workers are so damn secretive! Why do the workers want outsiders (non-members) from knowing how their fellowship operates? Some of these head workers think they have some responsibility to remove weak and erring members from being able to speak or pray in meetings! If the truth was God's only true religion, then why don't they shout it before the worldlings instead of keeping the group so secretive?? So many professing people are afraid to challenge these workers fearing hellfire for questioning them. Unless you grew up in a professing home, you have no idea how much power some of these head workers have over the friends in this nameless church which meets in homes!! I hope more professing people send Ira Hobbs and other TX workers some letters asking them not to interfere in people's personal lives! | ||

Early History of the "Moore" family (4 generations professing) In 1921 Ray Bonds & Orin Taylor held gospel meetings near Wayside & Happy, Texas. Mrs. Lizzie Schaeffer (my great-great grandmother) & her daughter,Anna Schaeffer later married to Ed Moore. They made their choice & professed in those 1st gospel meetings held at Fairview schoolhouse, along with Bob Bryan (My dad's uncle). In the fall of 1921, the 1st Convention was held near Antelope Flat, Texas, where Hubert Childers professed & shortly went into the work in 1922. The 1st fellowship meetings were started near Wayside & Happy, Texas, at Lizzie Schaeffer's home in 1921. The Wed. night bible study meetings were held in Bill Bryan's home. Lizzie Schaeffer & a few others attended there, along with her two daughters, Anna & Violet. Violet Bryan was later married to Bob Bryan, who used to be a worker. Violet Bryan professed & made her choice to serve Jesus in 1922, at the Antelope Flat Convention. A Special meeting was held in the Schaeffer's home in 1924. Two sister workers, Eva Thompson & Edna Blackburn held some gospel meetings in my great-grandparents home, near Wayside & Happy, Texas in Dec. 1930-1931. This where Berlin Raymond professed in July 1931 & he went into the work in 1932. The year that Convention was 1st held at J.W. Byrd's farm. My grandma, Pearl Wood (My mom's mom) professed in Berlin Raymond's gospel meetings at Happy, Texas in 1940. The gospel meetings were held in a machine shed at Johnny Byrd's farm & Convention grounds, which is maintained by Joe & Anna Price, until this present time period. | ||

Chad has some nice photos of the early Texas workers at Happy Texas convention grounds now owned by JW Byrd. I hope Ira Hobbs and company won't try to get Chad's site removed from the internet. The workers in Texas don't own the friends! Ira Hobbs is just a man. He shouldn't be trying to control what people write on the internet. | ||

Chad has many professing ancestors and has much affection for the truth despite his concern about an unbroken line of succession tracing back to Jesus. I know the workers don't want professing people to learn that their fellowship is a relatively new religion. Never mind that workers claim they have the only true way of Jesus on the earth today! | ||

Photos from Happy Texas, Pendleton IN, Lancaster KY, Carsonville MI and other early conventions are found on Chad Moore's updated website. I am saddened that some workers in Texas and South Carolina are opposed to his site. It makes no sense for the workers to be so secretive about their group. | ||

http://www.lifelineoutreach.com/shieldofvictory/ I don't know if the workers fear that they will have to explain why the "truth" hasn't been around since the bible days! Some professing people were taught that the "way" went all the way back to Jesus and now it has been proven that Irish workers in the late 1890s started the "truth" based on the homeless 2X2 ministry. Workers fear any information that might threaten their power base. WOrkers fear that the friends will consider them to be just another religious ministry instead of the true ministry that Jesus established and preserved until our day! | ||

its hard to get a grip when your life has been ruled with rules!!!! Cults are damaging..four suicides in my family alone. Fifty years of this cult you dont just pick up and move on. Im going to get professional councelling to try and put this old life behind me. ANGER is a big thing right now even if I do NOW know the REAL truth!!! | ||

If you speak out against the fellowship called "truth", you are branded as an enemy! Nobody trusts you. People shun you and gossip about you behind your back. It is awful. If you stop going to meetings, you have lost your salvation and will go to hell when you die. It sucks! | ||

Vicki, perhaps the suicides in your family were related to unnoticed deepseated problems... ever thought that it might have had nothing to do with the TRUTH?? am sure suicides are voluntary actions... not CULT performed as you call it?? | ||

People with depression gravitate toward legalistic sects seeking structure. I think the truth does enhance the depression and anxiety problem. Trying to please other people doesn't help your self esteem. | ||

I work in a Christian bookstore and talked to a customer whos parents are 2x2s, she dropped out so her family shuns her, her brother killed himself. Very sad. I realize there are many reasons for suicides and depression, but when you know you will never be good enough for GOD what hope is there? Never knowing until your death and God adds up all your good deeds....of course we all know all the good deeds in the world wont get you to heaven. |
