Welcome to Advent Talk, a place for members and friends of the Seventh-day Adventist Church! Feel free to invite your friends to come here.
I have been absent from this site for at least a month or more... It amuses me to see that Stan is attempting to get the writer of "The Televangelist" to lay claim to its authorship. It is obvious from his comments that he has heard the different theories regarding the identity of the person or persons assumed to have penned this insightful glimpse into the life of Danny Shelton---based upon Danny's public acceptance and confession of himself being depicted within its content.The authorship of this document is of little consequence...its contents is of far greater importance. Do I know who wrote it? I know with certainty who did not write it: Linda Shelton. The facts presented in it were not gleaned from Linda, despite accusations from those who insist continued speculation upon its authorship or the primary source for the information contained within its pages.Stan, how bold of you to pass judgement upon this author, insisting that their name be stricken from the Book of Life. Why? For telling the truth? For drawing back the curtain and shedding light upon the truth hidden behind the carefully scripted public persona of the televangelist? It is neither gossip nor fabrication which is included within this brief biographical work. In fact, much that could have been included has been omitted... The current contents are shocking enough without adding additional details.So, Stan. Why such a stalwart defender of Danny Shelton? Do you know him personally? Could you swear on a Bible in a court of law as to the nature of his genuine character or just to the minute part captured on camera and broadcasted by 3ABN? Before you so harshly condemn the author of the televangelist; instead of branding this author a gossip and passing judgement upon him or her, entertain the possibility that they are a watchman on the wall sending out a warning that a wolf in sheep's clothing has entered in among the flock. Should the messanger be condemned because you are uncomfortable with the facts you have received? Even Danny, himself, admitted to the authenticity of this report of his actions, although he was not willing to take ownership to every action reported. The author has recorded all the incidents in good faith and there are numerous honest witnesses who can attest to its accuracy---not liars, disgruntled ex-employees or their spouses, ex-wives of the televangelist or others with an axe to grind---merely witnesses to the events included within the text of "The Televangelist".
Remember the day of prayer to root out the enemy within?

Is that something that happened at 3ABN?I think it was early 2007, but I don't remember for sure. I remember someone writing me, puzzled about the public announcement, and wondering what that was about.
Sister!! Lomg time no see!As I was reading the first paragraph, it did come to me that I never heard or saw denial of the facts of the test as a whole. Maybe on some incidents here and there, but I always got the impression that the reaction was more "who is ti that had this level of insight". They always just wanted to know who the author was. I think if their position that the entire thing was fiction, they would not worry as much about wh wrote it and just dismiss it.

What year did The Televangelist come out?
Also, isn't that around the time that Bob and Gailon got involved?
