As a person who has visited The Gathering I've got to comment. There are some very disturbing "patterns" in Gene's messages that those who go there need to be discerning about. He is a man who cannot accept criticism, therefore in his messages he subtly and not so subtly sets himself up into such a position that makes people afraid to question him. To begin with he constantly referred to how God talks to him and how much time he spent in prayer. Most every message started with a reminder of that. Then last year, in February, he stated in a message how 'he hates people who question him" and referred to anyone who did that as the "10 spies, keeping The Gathering out of the promised land". Now he's into the positions of the church and has the congregation date in their Bibles when HE became a prophet, teacher, apostle etc. What's with that?!? Once again setting it up that no one even dare question anything he says or decision he makes. Be careful people - THAT IS SO DANGEROUS! He had a message last year where he talked about how he has risen to the top and now people serve him. How he used to set chairs for an evangelist and now he has 5 different types of water to choose from during his messages and how Nola knows exactly the tea and temperature he needs between messages. Where in the Bible does it show Christ having this attitude?!?! Christ came to serve, not be served. Christ was all about being humble - never about positioning. There are so many good godly people at that church and I just pray that Gene sees what he is doing and repents before he leads this church down a bad, bad path. People who go there, don't be afraid to question when he says things that don't sound quite right. In Acts 17 the Bereans were described as having "noble character" and examining the scriptures to see is what Paul said was true. This is a good thing - that we are called to do. Don't let anyone browbeat you into fear of doing this. "All scripture is God breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training..." I Tim3:16. As a body we are to hold each other accountable - no one is above that. Don't let Gene intimidate you. There are so many good things going on at the Gathering, but there are also many disturbing things, don't let those things going on. I'm praying for you.

Mr. JS, otherwise known as COWARD, you said in one of your posts above that you didn't do anything out of ANGER? What do you call it when you ILLEGALLY BREAK INTO OTHER PEOPLE'S COMPUTER SYSTEMS, SNOOPING AROUND SO YOU CAN SPREAD "YOUR VERSION OF THE TRUTH?" That's not Anger??? Who made you God? You can say you were not acting out of anger, but you are filled with BITTERNESS. What you did was SNEAKY, ILLEGAL, an act of VOYEURISM, LYING, STEALING ... oh, but there's no anger involved. No, in your mind, committing illegal acts of hacking into computers are called MERCY, GRACE, PEACE, and LOVE. Like the person wrote above ... you're a COWARD. In answer to the reason why the rest of us don't have to leave our names? WE DON'T ILLEGALLY HACK INTO EVERYBODY ELSE'S COMPUTERS and hide behind the cowardice of our deeds. No wonder you didn't want people to know your identity, Mr. J.S. Deceive yourself all you want to, JS, but you are an ILLEGAL HACKER who runs around with men who take pictures of themselves naked and plaster it all over the internet. You guys love using the Internet for your own perverse deeds such as displaying your personal physical nakedness and everyone else's personal business by hacking into other people's computers. TALK ABOUT A TRUSTWORTHY TYPE OF GUY!!! No wonder you didn't want anyone to know who you were. How many businesses will trust you to work on their computers in the future once the word gets out? Who wants someone coming and STEALING PRIVATE INFORMATION? THAT's EXACTLY WHY YOU DIDN'T WANT US TO KNOW WHO YOU WERE ... right, JS? Because you can get on here with your "Christian platitudes" all you want, but the bottom line is YOU'RE NOTHING MORE THAN A DISHONEST THIEF WHO CAN NEVER BE TRUSTED TO WORK ON ANOTHER INDIVIDUAL OR ANOTHER COMPANY'S COMPUTERS. That's why you tried to "laugh and scoff" at being called a coward because your Christian character will not stand up beneath the light of scrutiny. You're a cowardly thief. Gabriel Allon

Well, the "BLOG of LOVE and TRUTH" has been taken off the internet. Wonder why? Is it because the COWARD who laughed at everyone and called them fools because they did not want to hear HIS TRUTH has been found out? Because others did not ILLEGALLY hack into people's computers as he did? Not surprising since the COWARD hangs out with men who like NAKEDLY EXPOSING THEMSELVES and others on the internet. That's all of yours favorite tactic. Stripping off and exposing nakedness. It's kind of like pornography ... you have to go deeper and deeper into it to get your high. So the VOYEURS needed to strip everyone else down NAKED and EXPOSE them on the Internet. And if the house pastor who professes LOVE and wants to go to Starbucks and discuss things with everyone, BUT DECLARED HE DID NOT DO THAT ... then answer this question ... DID YOU KNOW JS had been hacking into everyone's computers??? Including those of the church and everyone's emails? Of course you did. You might be able to honestly state that YOU WERE NOT THE ONE TO DO IT ... okay, but answer this. DID YOU KNOW JS was doing it? OF COURSE, you did. Others have related your complicity in listening to what the COWARD did. You got caught on the internet, exposing your naked body and you and computer boy had to expose someone else by illegally hacking into, not just one computer system, but those of people in the church. Now let's go to Starbucks and talk about LOVE and TRUTH and HALF-TRUTHS where you leave out the part that you KNEW about it. You thought by saying "you did not DO IT" absolved your role in all of this? You guys LEFT THE CHURCH because you're so SPIRITUAL. Well, keep your spiritual selves to yourselves and try repenting of your BITTERNESS and stay away from The Gathering and your ILLEGAL HACKING into computers of church members and the church. All you've spouted off about was TRUTH??!! The only TRUTH we can see is that you guys are filled with bitterness and must be so miserable in your own little home church that you have to keep throwing stones at The Gathering, PLUS ... however, in the world could you justify your ILLEGAL HACKING in church members and the church's computer system???? You talked about self-deception!!! Do you think you're the FBI or CIA? What RIGHT IN THE EYES OF GOD ALMIGHTY DID YOU HAVE TO GO POKING AROUND IN BUSINESS THAT IS NONE OF YOURS? You're all a bunch of peeping Toms and voyeurs who love exposing your own naked bodies on the Internet and poking around and feeling and gloating about personal business that has nothing to do with you. Is it your money??? You don't even believe in tithing. GET A LIFE. KEEP YOUR OWN CLOTHES ON and HOPE YOU DON"T END UP IN JAIL FOR WHAT YOU DID.
