Linda Shelton

[Gailon Arthur Joy]

In fact, rumor has it that at least one of Linda's inner circle were of a similar feeling. They seem to have had the premise that Linda still had not healed from the psychological abuse of 20 years with Danny Lee Shelton and should take time and avoid conflict while she received extensive counselling and acheived healing.

I am of the camp that says healing comes by focusing on ministry and getting going again.

Now, I rather doubt that the dark side thought of it in any of these terms. They just were determined to stop her from ministry...after all she is the source of all 3ABN's problems, therefore, she must be stopped before she is allowed to do further damage to the "Lord's Annointed".

Can one wonder who is the Lord's "annointed"?

Amen. It has been my experience that many times when someone says, "You need counseling" they really mean "You need to talk to someone who can convince you to see it my way." I agree that Linda's best healing will come from doing what God has called her to do, and letting Him work healing in her life.

My prayers are with all who are involved in this.

I think that focusing on ministry would be the best antidote for abuse also.

Can it be that the constituents of the "dark side" have been convinced by the "annointed one" that Linda Shelton is the source of their problems?

I find it hard to believe that thinking people who have bothered to look into the situation at all would think that she had any part in doing something against them...only that they caused the problem themselves by what they did to her.

It's what was done to Linda that opened up my eyes to the fact that something was rotten in the state of Denmark, to loosly quote something from Shakespeare's Hamlet.

Not Denmark. Little Egypt. Should be a world of difference.

[Bob Pickle]

For those who don't know, they think southern IL got the name Little Egypt after I think 1831, when crops failed big time because of cold weather. Frosts in May and a killing frost in September.

Folks traveling to southern IL after that to buy corn knew their Bibles and said that they were going down to Egypt, like Jacob's sons. The name stuck.

The city of Cairo on the IL/KY border was built later, they say.

And so, Is Thompsonville a little Jerusalem?

"August 3, 1861, I was shown that some have feared that our churches would become Babylon if they should organize; but those in central New York have been perfect Babylon, confusion." (1T 270)

Of course, the term "Babylon" primarily refers to systems that teach particular doctrines, but it is interesting that Adventist churches in New York were so full of confusion that Ellen White applied the term as an adjective to those churches.

[Gailon Arthur Joy]

And how did we get from the Nile to the Euphrates...is Thompsonville that confusing? Now, if one is headed Up the Nile Southbound, to get to the Euphrates one would have to take a Left turn. Is that what happened here?

Good grief, do you have any idea what happened to Babylon? The implications are profound.

And I agree with both of you. May God be with Linda!  :praying:

Has Linda had any invites lately to sing anywhere?
