Actually, it does not relate to the Armstrong experience so much as it does to the mainstream Christian tradition. Sending in and requesting the prize is the moral equivalent of requesting that Jesus' sacrifice be applied to your sins.<br /><br />If HWA had been the benefactor dispensing the prize money, we all know how reality would have played out! One would have been required to mail in the request in a #10 envelope made of virgin paper, with security lining, and rounded corners on the flap. One would be required to print out the request from a rich text format, on an hp 920 deskjet printer from the black cartridge in 12 point Arial bold font, all caps. The envelope could only be sealed with a lightly moistened sponge containing demineralized water, and the required stamp would be an eternal first class stamp with the American Flag. This should be taken directly to the primary Post Office in your city or town, and taken to the desk, with the request that it be hand cancelled.<br /><br />To receive your prize, you would be required to set up an account at a local branch of Chase Bank, and provide all of the proper numbers necessary for electronic transfer of the funds. The prize money, minus pre-deducted tithes and generous offering, would appear in your account within 10 working days of receipt of your request. <br /><br />That's the way legalism rolls with regard to freebies!<br /><br />BBByker Bobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15602697337552385535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5528158760608808912.post-87685518572407814762015-06-12T13:45:33.459-04:002015-06-12T13:45:33.459-04:00Thanks for this post!

With liberation, comes peace and freedom from fear, which was and IS the only way these splinters keep their members.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
