Grace
Meeting
March 9th 1989

Stewart is in the black print

the ( ) are the voices of the brothers and sisters collectively

Mike Montoya comments will appear in Blue. I know I would not have gotten this much floor time had I actually been there.

By Grace you are saved never by faith ..by grace
You’ve heard it how (often a bunch of times) You were in fact, as Gayle pointed out, kept in
restraint. You were kept under tutors until this day. Wait a minute!...Are you saying we are Jews?
There is also, in no way to excuse my error...There is also an amazing working of God in all this too, not to excuse at all...not to excuse me at all.....That’s one will have to get into..Sorry for butting in again ..Are you saying That God is working here. there is this in Job " Behold you have instructed many and now it has come to you."Okay so you have instructed many, like Job and now calamity has come upon you....You innocent guy you!Doing such a great job and then this happens! Darn! "Nevertheless if the Son makes you free, you will be free indeed...(thank you Jesus) Thank you Jesus? Brothers and sisters ...what are you thanking Jesus for.?....Stew here says first You are Jews under the old covenant finally getting to the New Covenant...then he says God is working amazingly..then he mentions "my error" then he is Job suffering unjustly.....Then he claims salvation in Jesus....I am missing something here?... .A child as long as he is a child is no better than a slave...he is under tutors until the day the father
appoints..Got my hand raised here...Stewart ...are you saying that You and cobu up until March 1989 is like the Jews with the law ala Galatians?....when does "your error" come in".you better be glad you were.were what?.and there is this too...you better be glad you were..what? kept in restraint? kept under tutors? kept under your leadership?.the alternative is worse..yeah Jesus can't save anyone by any other means but you appauling as this is.you got that right.. If I hadn’t grabbed you ...what then?gosh..maybe Jesus would have shown his mercy to me and saved me in a healthy church and I wouldn't have nightmares starring you..( saved from my own backsliding...I might be dead...I might be physically dead) Yet as I said all along..but my spirit didn’t mean it ..it’s not me doing it ..it’s God doing it...and it was! Okay ...time out...I know we are all versed in Stewartspeak but come on! You said all along but your spirit didn't mean it? So you were decieving us. So God is responsible for this mess huh? You kill me. God was doing it all along..doing it...hmmm ...you mean saving us tending us? So it wasn't you? So where does your error come in?

You’ve all been reading Romans a lot lately(yes).who told them to read Romans lately...you? Therefore you know the answer to the question already don't you...cheap theatrics..you’ve all been reading Romans a lot(yes)..and could not notice this? don't you remember? ...you are the teacher...nobody interprets or comes to any conclusions without your stamp of approval you didn't train us to notice anything except your teaching...Look , it is clear that God has decided that it is time for you to transfer your allegiance, if that’s the word, from my spirit to His Spirit(yes..thank you Jesus).Wait, wait wait....."God has decided" He decided that we call no man Lord, Teacher or Father a long time ago. You make it seem like God sanctioned Cobu and you as tutors and custodians until this appointed time. So you were not in error...you were doing God's will. Hey everybody ...Let's thank Jesus for all that Stewart's done, after all, it was God's will up to this point to pledge allegiance to Stewart's spirit, which we did quite well...Oh boy...now we get to go to God directly....hmmm....guess we are Jews.....but wait a minute...I'm a
hispanic gentile....God poured His Holy Spirit into my heart June 30 1975.....I have never been under the law....is this the error part..Stew? there are deeply ingrained ideas and feelings..running wild in our fellowship, many of them directly or indirectly can be traced back to my error.bingo! Everything has to be re-examined.by who?....you are no longer qualified And this is a good time to do it....oh yeah ...I forgot...God decided....What has happened is this..this is another set of..some sort of ah ah...some sort of tying my error to your problem..oooh! you make it seems so difficult....simple adding and subtracting.....brothers and sisters in cobu....poisoned...brothers and sisters out.....healthy christians....Hmmm....who is teaching those strange things to
those christians in cobu?...I'll let you have this one..and ..ah..how do you think I’m doing Gayle?.. Come on Gayle...make him seem credible

Gayle: I’m not really sure".. neither are we
.Stewart: in speaking anyways....
Gayle: ?
Stewart: I have been unable to speak almost right Gayle?
Gayle: yeah
It is again only His grace that I am even physically able to speak right now..and what was it when you couldn't speak? that is coherent...I have been a help in many ways..but have torn down in others. yeah..and Hitler was great for Germany except for that little Holocaust thing..we have come to depend on faith instead of Jesus.....by faith....the stress is subtle yes... "it’s up to you and your faith"...is that the idea that you have?(yes)If you're gonna use the Galatians theme, then use the word "works" remember Faith good...Works bad...."We have come to depend on faith"...."instead of Jesus?" What? That's the strangest thing I have ever heard .You are describing "works" but you are using the word "faith". I can speak for everyone when I say "our faith was and is in Jesus" We aren't just walking around with a ball of faith, hoping to cash it in for a white robe. You taught us about faith for 17 years. Our ideas about faith came from you. And you never talked about Faith being or equal to WORKS. Have you lost your mind? Some how I cheerily bounded off with that idea...and the brothers couldn’t keep up with me..welll....if we did catch up to you...you’d bash us .faith in His love but it’s up to you...somehow...these are absurdities...Why did God allow this? Wait a minute...I thought we were being kept in
restraint, ya know with tutors... Are you saying we have been believing absurdities? This must be where you talk about your error.. You think it must be because of wrong in me..."well yeah..since everything we ever learned came from you...you yourself said that you erred....so yeah it's the wrong in you ( I know I'm making a big leap here) (yeah,muttering) this illness is not unto death..it is for the glory of God"... yer saying that kind of thing? what illness?...you're not Lazarus...this is not a physical malady...and
Unless...then there’s me ..that's what I have been saying....It is you . You You You..how can this be? simple...You are in error....Furthermore....Furthermore.. let us let us erase this whole meeting now..Jedi mind trick.this has never happened...I wish .even so I would not rightly..now again..forget the wrong.What wrong? God decided..remember? Tutors.... but I was not rightly strengthening the brothers. yeah..you were wrongly strengthening us....didn't feel good either.. you don’t think so? No ..here I
agree with you....see you say "oh you’ve been so much help." go ahead say it...(yeah yes)..Brothers and sisters....Stewart is trying to repent for messing us up and here he is begging us to applaud all the good he has done..it yet remains it’s not true...I haven’t been..well No kidding....gosh you're so humble....what then?...Jesus told the parable...there was a rich man...with a trunk put all kinds of money in...and the woman put one penny in...now what’s the point?You got me(guessing) I could cheerily keep going this way I could..I could cheerily keep going..but in affect I was just saying to the brothers..what it comes down to whether I thought I was doing what it comes down to is saying .."well..it’s up to you..you gotta be faithful"and so
forth. So you going on your merry way is a good thing? God's Will? And again you are describing works and blaming faith or faithfulness. We were and are a very "works" oriented fellowship. With the charts and color judgment, oh..by the way...thanks for all that tutoring... So where is strengthening the brothers the real way? you got me Strengthening the brothers in faith that you are his chosen..first and foremost...and I am not ..to my shame. okay...this is where you should break down over the tremendous grief you have amassed for the error and damage and hurt and pain you foisted upon us for the last 17 years building up on the one hand and tearing down with the other. When were you building up ?....I am willing to give you credit...you were nice to me when I was a lamb then you targeted me for all the years I lived in fellowship...bull in a china shop..I hear my friend back there.... it really has been...and I want you to know something else...are you listening? sales tactic(yes) you must understand
this.sales tactic.how...hard to believe again..sales tactic.this is nothing.sales tactic..there is a real way in which I have been as or more a victim than you ...now think of that.I'm thinking ...I'm thinking.....you? a victim? Let's see...who is abused you?..you didn’t waste 25 years. No, we wasted 17 years listening to you insist that you were getting all this "teaching" from God. Remember, you were tutoring us..restraining us...God does work everything for the good for those called according to His purpose...Let's see..I was in Cobu from 80-84....but there are brethren here that have been in for 20 to 25 years..And you have been erring all over them for that long...so go cry on someone else’s shoulder......and had he not rescued me as he rescued you a short while ago... I wonder what would have become of you...it was that bad. Getting that bad...this has been a stumbling block for all of us including me.."This has been a stumbling block" What has been a stumbling block? Your teaching?...then step down....I still don't get it ....you're the guy doing all the bad stuff...did you also transmigrate into the audience and into the brothers meetings and become a victim of yourself?...help me out here....Is there some cosmic something that's hurting everybody including you? poison talk... you got that right "God gives you what you need to get started and then" it’s up to you" .Well that's what you taught us for 17 years...I thought God talked to you...my my ...look...how easily everyone is returning now..how easily!(yes). Why is it so easy? They are returning so easy. Because He’s doing it (yes..yeah) He 's doing it? God is drawing them back to this? You're still in charge. You're still pitching the same ambiguous teaching....(Since it is 10 years later and they are not so easily returning..what do you think of this statement now...True or False? Was it God or You?.And in the 2 years following the Grace Meeting many left. What does that mean, Stew? And all this error...he is overlooking as it were and bringing us back... but enough is enough."Us Back?" Not so fast! You're different from the sheep in this room. You are a shepherd.... Remember? There is a different standard for you. Putting to death "I can do this part over here myself." I can see that working in me. That’s what the brothers...and I would forever teach about Samson...and I am the most..You see....Samson..."I can do it myself"..."Works".and I’m not a hypocrite...I’m not a hypocrite...you understand this? Who brought this up? No one thinks you're a hypocrite. An erring , abusive false Teacher, but not a Hypocrite. Even if you did live by different rules, lived in a better house, had better food, got to do your interests, got married, met your goals by burdening others shoulders.....Hmmmm....I think you'd better re-examine the word...Hypocrite. (yeah) you don’t get that.(yes) How many of you don’t? He doesn’t. How many don’t understand that? Gayle how bout you defend me...Yeah Gayle...make him appear credible

Stewart: while I just....I did it in ignorance Ignorance? Then you are blind guide

Stewart: a hypocrite knows he was True...eh ..you didn't know you were abusing us all these years?...this is worse than I thought
Brothers and sisters: right yes yeah

Gayle: Nobody was telling him "Look, yer doing it this way..and there was nobody telling him.... "Nobody Told him"...ehh "honest Officer, my 5 year old son didn't tell me my beating him was wrong so I kept doing it." So you're innocent..huh? "For him who knows what is right to do, and fails to do it, for him it is sin." So you're ignorant, therefore guiltless therefore..Let's pack it up Brothers and Sisters...nothing wrong here...no more to see...shows over..

Stewart: And you’re glad I did aren’t you? What kind of a question is that? What kind of an attitude is that? Gayle? Does Stewart treat you like this at home?Where does a question like this come from? Seems like you're pushing the sister away now. Are you upset that someone has interrupted your sales pitch. Sorry ...don't let us interrupt...you go ahead....your floor...quiet everyone

Stewart: Listen..,Let’s start over..you said "A lot of brothers and sisters think about this..No they don’t. They never never never thought that this was bad. No they never thought ....they thought there was something wrong of course! Of Course! there’s someth.. they didn’t think anything of this. And neither did I.You are re-phrasing the sister’s question. The truth is a lot of brothers and sisters did think about this. And a lot were afraid to tell you because of the typical way you treated those who disagreed with you. And some did try to tell you in the early days..I can get a list if you want...No, no brother..this one's on you. You are switching the basis around so you can answer the question on your terms. By the way, why should anyone be listening to your explanation? You are in error. you said it yourself. Are you now saying "God mopped up the mess my spirit made, it wasn't me, and so everything is peachy, I can still teach.?" One would think you would be too guilty and ashamed to even speak. And here you are telling this sister and us the answers, just like the last 17 years. How is this going to help us "transfer our allegiance from your spirit to God's spirit?" Huh.?..same old Stew. To quote you "They knew something was wrong." How do you know they knew something was wrong? And if you did know they knew...why didn't you do something about it? You don't seem so ignorant or innocent anymore.
Now you say didn’t anyone try to talk to me. Well friends like him."How you have helped me,"Now you can't have it both ways. First you say or Gayle said "Nobody told him"...Now you say some people did. And you quote another Job verse...I think it's a verse from Job.You are not in the role of Job here..stick to the script...You are either erring repentant Stewart or TutorOldCovenantMan transforming into NewCovenantGrace Man...(very confusing).. and David Wilkerson...well I don’t remember..this was 25 years ago?(yeah) And if my old wine is this bad what must the new wine have been? So if you are really messed up now then you were a basket case back then when others were telling you that you were going the wrong way...got it..just checking..Okay ..you're Erring Repentant Stewart...got it..It would help if you would grieve openly ..just a little bit...You're too pushy right now..Try a teary- eyed choked up approach. I don’t know what I was doing with him...I don't remember anyway .I don’t know what I was trying to say..it maybe as bad as him..I don’t know.so we are back to ignorance there is this also. Me and other Christians. You know that scripture " Woe to him who is alone when he falls."(yes) Well I know that scripture, you don’t. I know that now. You don’t know what that means.Okay I said teary-eyed choked up...not pitiful ...How do you know if we know what it is or what it is not like to be alone?. Alone like you? Well..that’s true ...we didn't push everyone away for 25 years. Do you have any idea what it is like to try fellowshipping with you? Sorry Stewart..but this is pathetic...You didn't and don't want correction, You don't want to share the leadership, you don't want to submit to the brothers fellowship. We confessed our sins to one another and prayed for one another. You could have come to us. You're alone because you chose to be alone. I think I learned that phrase from you. Oh, and in the near future, you are going to get a phone call from a brother inviting you to come clean at the brothers meeting. I suggest you accept the invitation instead of hanging up on him. Why am I alone? Why is it that there is no fellowship between me and other Christians? Don't you remember? You criticized Christians left and right, up and down. Remember CCC's? Contentious Church Christians? Remember how you would mock them at meetings? They would stand and ask questions or try to make a point and you would fall over on the floor and mock them to silence. First of all, I gave up long ago. That was my sincere claim. But why, what was the trouble in the first place? Perhaps it was..while insisting...perhaps they were trying to land me with grace..now I doubt it...now I doubt it. But! it may have been, that may have been the case. Perhaps someone did somewhere, had to have been way back. Perhaps someone did try. Perhaps someone noticed. I have no way of dealing with it. No memory no..You haven't been reading Bill Clinton's grand jury testimony...oh sorry...you'll understand 10 years from now....I repeat what I said, I think if you showed this, they would murmur nice things instead of throw up. What do you think? (yes yeah) Well try it! Try whoever can..you want to..
Brother 1: I did show somebody and they thought it was wonderful..

But you know, but you know it isn’t right to do really. Because then it is to their shame. Yer just sticking pins in em. And even if you then try to argue and correct them as I might have done 20, 25 years ago tried to do...for an argument, to learn, some such thing...See ...this is confusing...Gayle said "nobody told him (you)" but there is this mysterious "they" and "them". that you don't want to stick pins in Let’s hear some more what you find hard to believe..cuz I do too. You see brothers and sisters , Stewart is in the same boat as us. He finds things hard to believe too. Note though that he is still leading the meeting.

Stewart: And who is the emptiest of all....me..Right here you should break down into tears..maybe go into your unhappy childhood..Poor Ole Stewart....WAKE UP !!! YOU TAUGHT US THE EMPTINESS!!!! you manufactured it..I was devoid , I was unconscience of grace. I really wonder if some of you were more aware of grace than I. I really think so because it’s zero with me. then you have a lot of repenting to do

Stewart: There might as well not been the word in the bible. You never heard me say 2 words. Did you ever discuss grace, anyone of you? (yes) Wait a minute, wait a minute, she’s first anyway, wait a minute, listen , did any of you , just raise your hand, did any of you discuss grace a year ago and more with anybody? Well then yer way ahead of me!... way ahead right there. Because, to you, the word existed and that’s way ahead of me. Okay...a mixture of ignorance and pity here..you taught the Bible to us for 17 years (side note...you keep saying 25 years...let's see 1989 minus 25...you got saved in 1964? hmmm...and you met Skip and Patty and Neil in 71 , 72? I'd like to know your story from 64- 72) So you taught us , completely ignorant of grace. Did you ever get born again? God does pour His Spirit into our hearts and the Counselor guides us into all the truth. And the pity thing...."You're way ahead of me"...Oh gosh, everyone....Stewart is behind..He is weaker than we...He doesn't understand grace like we do... Then why don't you sit down right here and let one of these brothers speak now? You could learn something.

Stewart: you know something else even more appalling? All these subjects, many of the subjects dealing with God’s grace are in fact fairly accurately dealt with here, everything around grace, but grace doesn’t exist. Okay...so the word grace didn't exist for you and you taught and you wrote and taught accurately about grace, but grace itself didn't exist. Is anyone following this? that’s that’s more amazing God’s love is in here all over and Relying on Him....you see God was eh ..heh..I guess ah..I guess they are all running out now..it’s getting too boring...(nooooo) apparently(no)old habit...you know some brothers and sisters do leave your presence for legitimate reasons sometimes...While you're repenting for teaching false doctrine, try repenting for this ego of yours.. Listen..God was revealing to me over some time when I said ya know back Jan 1 when I said "He was restoring me too, I didn’t know the tenth of it, I didn’t know the tenth of it. Restoring you? So you backslid or fell? Does this include your behavior toward the sisters at Princeton? Nevertheless um Gayle has been reading the bible studies recently, all the bible studies and see how it’s working towards grace and the subjects around it.... hard to even say...I don’t know what the sessions are...I knew I didn’t know what they were...God was bringing us to the real basis. Okay ...NOOoooW.... the teaching was good. But I thought Grace didn't exist for you? How could your old bible studies be good and leading to grace? And ..once again you're saying that God sanctioned this teaching, this error you are suppose to be repenting from.
I was selling righteousness comes from faith...therefore...it’s through faith, not from or by. you were selling all right...when are you not selling? Sorry to bring this up...I know you're busy with your thing...but Hebrews 11 has "By Faith" all over it.....and are you telling us now that if we would had just fixed the "By, Through, From" word problem, none of this error would have ever taken place? I could just kick myself!

Stewart: All right whenever you say that that you also have to come back to the other side, it’s also my spirit pushing it out of you and saying "don’t listen to that"(yeah..yes)How much of that was it too?(yeah yes) You know there are ways different ways to look at it. Hey Victor, here is another way to look at it.... Stew, It wasn't "your spirit, Stewart" pushing it out of us. It was YOU, YOU,YOU! And what were you pushing out of us and telling us not to listen to? Messages of grace and messengers of the Grace of God. So which is it? Ignorance or are you lying right now?

Stewart: How much is it I could clamor and I could gallop and skip along in my merry way and the brothers couldn’t keep up with me(a lot a wholel ot) It was my merry way..that is in what I was doing wrong. Define "Merry way".... Was it the "error" or the "tutor" thing?... and... "doing wrong"...you mean sin, right? Sin against the brothers, right? You know , in a brothers meeting you could not get away with all this talking. We were taught to say "stop making speeches Brother...and make it right with the body." ..don’t forget also..Jesus used me a lot (yes...sure) in spite but it was in spite Okay Jesus used you in spite of what? Your sin? I thought your merry way is what's in error....and if that isn’t His grace..according to the bible, what is? Hey , I thought we were suppose to know more about grace than you. His kindness ya know.. His grace was extended to us while we were enemies..You got the verse wrong I think. Romans 5:6-11 and it's speaking about us when we were not saved...before the new birth. We are no longer enemies of God ,... haven't been for years. Speak for yourself..Now, we must really get into grace(yeah yes) I mean really....try this saying...There is something to this...Now grace, faith and spirit, small S, these three abide, but the greatest of these is grace....small S....small S eh..we"ll have to get into that.Look everyone, here is a fella who, only paragraphs ago said grace didn't exist for him. And now he is re-writing the bible. Amazing how these over-achievers bounce back. When are you going to stop teaching and ask us to forgive you? Wine is treacherous....meaning?...Now here’s what happens...Let’s take those three...grace, faith, and spirit...there’s a lot of, are you paying attention, (yes) There’s all of churches overboard on spirit matters. You now know of a church overboard on faith. Okay so Cobu is overboard on faith....You have lost your mind. First of all... Faith has to be in something or someone. "Overboard on faith in________? Faith in Ourselves? Faith in Jesus? Real faith in Jesus; you can't have enough of, right? You are doing it again..... Brethren, Stewart is talking about "Works" but he is blaming "faith" ...Faith = Works...hmm...How ridiculous a notion "Relying on Faith" instead of relying on Jesus. It's like "Hey brother , I have faith in my faith...or...I believe in my beliefs...Just stop teaching and repent....there are in fact apparently, recently I have been inquiring, that there are some overboard on grace, say it isn't so to the extent that they to the extent that they claim to do away with baptism. You know you can be lopsided any way? I think what you are saying is churches can take advantage of God using a misconception of Faith , Grace or Spirit. But don't talk like Real Faith, Real grace and Real manifestations of the Spirit are bad. (yeah) Nevertheless those 3 exist.... Grace , faith and spirit..all of them are important. And they have to be in the right balance. And they certainly haven’t been here...and therefore I have no idea, I have no idea in the light of the truth I have no idea about other churches, you know I have to say that...I have no idea...because anyway I would have looked at them, would have been in error. Follow? (yes) spirit had better not be the basis, because it’s just an anything goes..Faith can’t be the basis because then it’s hard work.Are you listening to yourself?" Faith is hard work? . guess I should tear out Galatians 3. And Galatians 4...heck just tear out the whole letter. Grace is the basis. It’s not on the basis of works but of grace.So Faith=Works Grace must be the basis. Anyways....Romans 10 "...a zeal for God but it is not enlightened." speaking of the Jews....I have heard it said "Am I some sort of Old Testament character..well actually you started those rumors..Remember when you said stuff like "I might have the spirit of Elijah...and things like that...believe me...we didn't think this stuff up on our own...maybe there’s something to that...being ignorant of the righteousness that comes from God and seeking to establish their own...now..that had to be true of me...to some extent...partly the problem ignorance, non-enlightened Samaritan doing both at once...Whaaaaaaah?.I began speaking about relying on Jesus...The big thing is that you have to remove the phony relying on faith before you could actually rely on Jesus..You're cuckoo! Yeah Bro..I'm having faith in my faith..How much are you relying on Faith?(weak muttering) We don't know because that is a stupid questionYou see, in other words, here’s another explanation. In some sense or other I have a framework somehow, that I can keep going...does that make any sense?NO..That you don’t have. I wasn’t seeing grace, Nevertheless I could include enough of it enough of what.?..grace..I thought you were ignorant in some sort of pseudo-framework to ah..keep going..enough to ah seem right...got it?(yes)NO How can you rely on Jesus with some sort of "It’s up to me" feeling?sounds like yer talking about works (can’t)..contradictory....now a double problem...yanking grace out of scripture.who wants to yank grace out of scripture?..especially out of those three, Grace , faith and spirit...yank grace out....you’ve done 2 things, 2 problems. First , you’ve changed...by removing grace...what’s left is changed...but it’s also damaged. You can’t yank something out of something without damaging what’s left...it's it's..there are two things...there’s a vacuum....and there’s damage. Do you follow? (yes)...sounds like you're not going to repent from your ambiguous teaching style..it's like you are applying physics to the bible.You can see that having happened. That is, violence has been done to faith and spirit too! And then....the actual wrong came in which is relying on faith.....to the point(sighing) I was right...you are saved by faith, by the way that’s in the summary....it’s both. Twice, we are saved by faith, don’t you people
ever check your bible?(yes) HOW DARE YOU!! You bashed us for years. "Don't rely on your own mind, your own thinking. Whenever we studied the Bible we did not go by our interpretation but must go by your teaching. You have the gall to blame us for trying to follow your error. I can see the meeting now. "Brother Stewart, it seems as though we are not into Grace enough." And your response? Well, just listen to any tape from any time, anyone teaching outside your control was squashed. I repeat, How Dare YOU!

I wonder if you have more appreciation of the working of God’s grace among us now? (yes) Grace enough to overcome this sin.What sin? Whose sin? Where sin abounds, grace abounds all the more. Shall we therefore sin...God knows that I did it in ignorance.How do we know that God knows.?.You did what in ignorance?..I didn’t plan this...I assume that you all know that (yes) You didn't plan WHAT? What about another explanation.....as he said.. without such a foundation..means that there is no framework, there is no sight of the framework....everything is sort of disconnected in a strange feeling kinda way, and every week it is a new direction and teaching and it isn’t connected to the foundation, the basis which is grace....which is the way it must be.....minus grace ..all the good things are floating. And how do you ever tie them together? Well you couldn’t but I quote could. In some sort of a running on automatic pilot....do you start to get a picture?(yes)Yeah ..I get the picture...The plane was flying itself while you were in the darkroom with the sisters..got it..continue please.. There’s no confidence therefore...confidence is a Big word....big....or..as it is written..."how come they never marry.?".....for that one alone I repent...for that one alone....Because you have to be like Stewart first(yeah)..Oh my goodness..Stewart used the "R" word. After 6 pages of teaching, you finally said the "R" word. Here is your chance to use the "I" and the "S" words and the "W" and the "Y", "F","M" words too. As in I'm Sorry, Will you forgive me? "You must be like Stewart" first comment means you admit that you are the primary reason the Brothers never married. Good news brothers...Stewart isn't going to teach error anymore in this regard....so gentlemen...start your relationships! His repentance means that there should be a significant number of marriages in the next few months...and the amazing marriage that He has given me...which is near per...not me.....I’m far from perfect..in fact, Gayle is close to perfect...did you ever hear..I heard some of you people say " She’s not, she’s like not human."(yes laughing) that marriage itself is nothing but the grace of God. Nothing but. In fact she looked up and found, " He who finds a wife", it’s very close, by the way, grace, what is grace? We’ll have to get into that (undeserved ..undeserved mercy) hold it hold it hold it, that is the stupidest thing there is, I say, with my fervent spirit, undeserved mercy...that is stupid to talk like that, because mercy is never mercy if it is deserved....so you’re saying mercy is mercy yeah ..and you're saying faith is works...so we're even...when you’re saying Mercy is undeserved mercy.....fix your brain. give it back first. In order for to be mercy otherwise grace would no longer be grace...in order to be mercy it can’t be deserved...or it isn’t mercy...What is this stupid undeserved mercy...and that is what people say!! (yeah yeah) Listen Listen..it doesn’t even make sense...just in words.....Oh maybe you do deserve some other kind of mercy..do you? (nooo) well..what is this? now think about it....You know I haven’t lost my confidence..my confidence is in Jesus...now where it should have been all along but it wasn’t .You sound like the same ole Stew to me and therefore will confidently say that...what is this undeserved mercy? Get your head screwed on! gosh we're dumb...teach us more Noo?! (yes) Now think about it... Mercy is mercy is all yer sayin.....you don’t get it? (yeyyss..noo) If eh rather Grace is mercy..yer saying Grace is mercy yer saying Grace equals mercy and it doesn’t....They are two different things....Grace is something...and it is certainly undeserved as all mercy is..or it wouldn’t be mercy..Wait a minute..you said Grace wasn't mercy...could you repeat that?..now anyway..anyway...um..anyway...what was I saying before about that...oh yeah "he who finds a wife finds a good thing and obtains favor, now grace is close to favor. who says?..close...it’s not...but that's approach..that’s one of the words that are around grace...that you’ve found favor...that He has extended his grace ..although the grace of God and the grace of Jesus Christ too ya know,by the way, two different things.sounds like we are gonna get 17 more years of deep teaching...so plan on another Starting Over Meeting...we gotta get into this..do you still use the color code?.see somehow I got saved...you don't seem sure And I still think I got saved...I still think I got saved. Did I get saved two weeks ago? Well I think I have to say I got saved 25 years ago...I think... but that’s another matter...I got saved or whatever..I got saved or whatever...."I got saved or WHATEVER? ..."Yeah ..(yawn) no big deal...got saved...Jesus died on the cross (takes a bite of his sandwich...mouth now full) Yeeh GII GOT Soved thum time back there...whatever"..and right away...right away...ahh....again you know, ..there’s another thing. I bought a bill of goods in a way ..because what does everybody do...you get saved....and then you go to church...and that’s about it....anyway..ahh..something like that..I got saved and I lost interest in ..thats ..I don’t remember doing it , I’m saying...I must have something like lost interest in salvation."I Lost interest in (snapping his fingers...trying to recall) oh... yeah Salvation..it was no longer interesting...now well it’s over..I mean ah...and I must have been acting something like that...perhaps having bought that picked that up..who knows..anyway...that’s something...in that area...well all right it’s no longer interesting....so now I’ll get in the Old Testament now I’ll start interpreting...and that’s what happened...it was a process..iin the process since....and got into interpreting this and interpreting that and and Matthew 24....meanwhile the most important teaching of all, salvation, and the most important part of the most important teaching was nowhere. An nobody noticed. Hey Everybody, Stewart is telling us his testimony. Are there 3000 here?....Ah...Stewart..umm..The most important part was there...How do you think we understood salvation enough to get saved? What do you think we were telling people on the street? What were the 12 Salvation verses? What was the John 3 ART SHOW ABOUT...FOR CRYING OUT LOUD!!! And your last comment..."Nobody noticed"....guess it was our fault...We Repent! Now , in a nutshell, that’s a process sense...dya follow?(yes) that’s partly what happened....Yes..eh..Gayle thought studying Matthew 24 would do that...over the years ..how many secretly dreaded it because fear "I could loose my salvation, with such an extreme testing , will I make it?(yeah yea sh yes)"....Why even ask the question? You're not stupid. You know how we reacted to Matthew 24...and Revelation to John...and all your end times hammering. You were there and so were we. Wow.. studying Matt 24 over and over like that would have that effect huh? . seems like a stretch….and you know it’s the brothers ...again...that may ..that particular one was even worse with the sisters...perhaps...there feeling reaction to it might be worse. A reference to the sisters in Princeton..no doubt but ya know it’s still the brothers...If ..if our life is based on works...that faith becomes works somehow. in your world..that’s just it ..it is more telling on the brothers...and it’s the brothers therefore that um...that’s why I have been speaking of the brothers being set free...think it’s true? (yes)...Without grace you’re on a crossing your fingers basis. I asked a while ago "Are you trying to talk Jesus into saving you?" Remember..(yes) trying to convince him into saving you. (yes) my goodness..This would be a good time to say...."And I'm really really sorry Brothers...Will you forgive me?.

Ya know the whole while, I never tried to take Jesus place.who brought this up?.no way and was always speaking against it...and yet that’s what the devil arranged. So it's the devil's fault..now think about it...something like that in effect....Without grace the chain of how connects everything to Jesus is broken. Ambiguous So all becomes mysterious. You got that right. Grace is meant to be the framework, format....I’m saying "salvation is a gift while under the counter you have to earn it by faith." Why don’t the brothers marry, because they have no confidence. Why don’t they have confidence, because of their impossible task..Translation::: You're not married because I taught you that you have to be like me first which is an impossible task..so blame me for you not being married by age 36, 37, 47, 52. Yeah, I'm the guy who wasted 17 years of your life when you could have been married with children and the blessings God intended for you in this way. Hey Stewart...I think this would be a really good time for you to ....y'know…..what do you think of that brothers?...(yes yeah makes a lot of sense)...

Brother 4: Many of the ones that are married , their marriage aren't very good because of the
same problem... Well, I would like to know how much Stewart was involved in destroying and damaging marriages in which he had no say. Think of this. Brothers finally do get married. Who do you think will be breathing down their neck the whole time they are trying to make the marriage work. I shudder.

Faith has almost become almost an end in itself ...how’s that? (yeas) one of the translations calls it the instrument...the tool....by the way But I wonder ..Gayle? there are of course a lot of salvation tracts floating around ..you pick em up right?(yes) Are they all the very same thing?(pretty much) that It’s faith, faith, faith, that it’s never grace? (nooo, it’s grace yeah grace) it’s grace? (yeah yes yeah)....I picked one up..I saw one yesterday, it was zero grace....or a few days ago there certainly must be grace.... It's really bad to be into Faith in God....Bad Faith...Bad! This is another pattern Stew exhibits. I have transcribed tapes where he says things that usually directly say that the "real teaching" is nowhere to be found "out there" but God is showing him and him alone the only way. There's no way anyone can argue against revelation from God. In tapes on the front of the web page and tapes soon to come on line, Stew does this overview of history and basically says after the first church and second century church things went wrong and up until now, 1990, all christians weren't getting it right. But now Stew has been show the TRUE BASIS FOR THE NEW TESTAMENT. The pattern is classic Stew. He always has all the answers. But we can't blame him for us believing that you must be in cobu, listening to him, or you are going to Hell.

Stewart : It says "by" ..I’ll bet ya..it says by grace through faith..(right) Faith is the lesser and Grace is the greater, doesn’t matter what translation...(yeah) that’ll come out...Grace is the basis... ..all the faith in the world...if He doesn’t extend His grace....Now ..that’s jumping the gun... without grace as the basis...Be zealous to confirm your call and election becomes trying to convince Jesus to save you(yes)... because the fact that nobody is picking up on grace.. and you haven’t been...You haven’t been picking up on it... the fact that nobody’s been picking up on it...as much as I have already gone into it...shows how deeply everyone is into "Faith, it’s up to me"ecetera...instilled in...think a that... Now I get it.. you're the one responsible for teaching us Works in the guise of Faith.

There is no receiving His grace with thanksgiving.... which is almost the basis of Christian life....Christian Life..that’s right...where’s Orange...now..no grace...Does the word grace appear anywhere...just the word...let alone ...I’ll bet it doesn’t...Place your bets.Things we looked at...it doesn’t...We got a long way to go people ..are you getting restless?(noooo) Notice there is a lot of running out..(yes...maybe take a 10 minute break....) It’s 5:00 now....We can either keep going or take a break or break for supper(brwaksupp 10min keep)Well...well...we could take a vote..remembering that for freedom(everyone together) Christ has set us free(thank you Jesus) what’s the rest though..(everyone) Stand fast therefore and do not submit again to a yoke of slavery.) To a Yoke of (slavery) To a yoke of salvation by faith or works..Our freedom in Christ has been reduced to voting between a 10 minute break and a supper break... notice how Stew interchanges Faith and Works here too?.. Are the brothers starting to realize how Jesus is starting to set all of US free?You stress "Us" ...Little Stew is just one of the Sheep (yeees) how many are only starting to? How many think they half understand it pretty much?...well...that’s getting there...Now let’s vote...on the break or keep going....keep going such as...I mean I don’t want to dwell on me..but aah...up to a point it’s important...the way I have operated...my spirit.....what God is doing with me...how He’s been leading me..but you said God was leading you the last 17 years. Why should we believe that God is leading you now? Because you say so?.and then finally ...the right view and balance that’s a big one..what is the right ..what is right then?... well starting that... and about grace... and other smaller...or should we take a break?....(take a break) or should we take supper? (supper)... What is God’s will? ( go a little further)(Why don’t we take a vote?) you see when you sing amazing grace...doesn’t really hit you huh?sell Stew Sell!(yes it does..no, no)take a vote on it then(yes)...how many say we break for supper now? how many say we take a 10 minute break?...How many say no break and no supper?(laughter) Well it’s pretty obvious that most want a break....(yes) right?(yes) so everybody vote on a 10 minute break or a supper break(yeah) is supper ready?

Stewart: okay you ready? how is that pure Vinnie and our fellowship? Well ...life and actions are to be interpreted in terms of the nearest circumstance only and we must act on the basis of the closest circumstance....never raise up our eyes into the context of greater things....ahh now supper is pretty great that’s true but but..(laughter) there may be even greater things...pitiful little "it’s gonna get messed up." (laughter)....Take courage Vinnie! Take courage (laughter) see I’m strengthening the brothers!(laughter) Take courage...Funny..so Funny. .Inconfident, unmarried older brother Vinnie, strengthened mockingly by the man who made him that way. Hha ha ha..How do you feel..Vinnie?

Vinnie: stupid thing I said...
Brother: (to Vinnie) Don't worry yeah Vinnie, don't worry, Stew repented. This is a Grace Meeting. Cheer Up..There are great times ahead Stewart: Listen ah..let’s all vote on a 10 minute break or a supper break...Are we all ready? (yes) How many say a supper break now?(clamor) well..and how many say a 10 minute break? well they lost(laughing) Well since it’s everybody and I don’t know a reason why to do otherwise..maybe a supper break..we can agree on that then( yes) what do you think?
(yes) what do you think about this meeting?(praise God thank you Jesus....)

Never would have thought of it... (nooo) There is an air of "Boy ..we all got fooled...ALL of US, right? I'm just one of the fooled, in fact, I'm more of a victim than any of you, and I'm lonlier too.(sniffle)

Stewart: already did at least two weeks ago (thank you Jesus)..His grace is greater than my shame or my error There is that word "error" again..and shame too. Hmmm get ready for snow...(thank you Jesus...yeah praise God) the next time you’re afraid to make a mistake.sell..because you’re afraid to sell, in sincerity,sell do what really looks ruuu sell..do what really looks right sell, really checked.sell.eh really looks right.sell..His grace if if ya are wrong His grace is greater anyway SOLD!! (thank you Jesus) TWENTY FIVE YEARS OF ERROR.? you try to beat that (laughter) 25 years of colossal error....to clarify ..it was 25 years of your colossal error..and 17 years of us living under it and getting damaged by it , hurt by it, destroyed by it. Can we beat that? Yeah we can beat that. Remember ...your Error wasn't foisted out on lab rats. You're looking at the fruit of your error. Do you think the Leaders of the former Soviet Union ever stood in line for toilet paper or food? How many Soviet leaders were imprisoned, tortured or murdered? I guess they could say "I lived in the Soviet Union under communism. it was a terrible system. long lines , no human rights, KGB, torture, murder. A terrible oppressive system.....Well ..yeah..I was one of the leaders but hey..I am as much or more a victim than the ones I imprisoned."

Stewart: this is no little point..(yeah) Sonya says I should expound on grace more..remember? That’s the Anns ah Tallulahs..you’re the one ..expound on grace more..he ha ..that’s the answer huh? MYYYYY...it’s an awful lot more than that...this mortal sin...I thought that was a big deal..I made a mistake...I did...Ha I thought that I was... I bought a bill of goods.that was awful..I got suckered by Jesus into a raw deal.but that wasn’t even the tip of the iceberg...remember that?(yes) once in a lifetime bible study I called it..remember?(yes)Oh my goodness....It is very very hard... a month from now you try to picture somebody...actually being oblivious to grace...and is fervent in Jesus as I have been..What?!.and put that together...a month from now ..you try and figure that out..impossible.are you trying to get us to marvel at you?...which leads you to wonder...God purposely made me blind to it..So it's God's fault."so I am not responsible"(stewart in a mocking tone)..eh pa..purposely made me blind to it..etc.. but ah....needs to understand when I said I’m glad it’s that bad because it’s proof ..it’s my written evidence..what I already know in my spirit...that I didn’t do it... I did it in ignorance...there’s the proof....it’s not there...if it was half there messed up...that might make me wonder....so I’m glad it’s that bad...it’s zero...you don’t get it huh? So your writings, workbooks, bible studies show your ignorance to Grace...okay...you're in the clear....what a relief...nevermind the destruction all around you..(yeas) a lot more to it...what do you think about this..(thank you Jesus....) later we will have to discuss
your forgiveness of me or the lack of it...that’s a subject. US FORGIVING YOU IS A SUBJECT? Are you insane? You are going to teach us about forgiving you? I don't recall ever seeing this behavior in the bible. Tune in tomorrow when Stewart Traill will teach us how to forgive him ....Here are my 12 memory points for forgiving Stewart 1) Remember...Stewart is ignorant 2) Remember all the good Stewart has done in ignorance 3) God is already leading Stewart, already working on and through him. So back off! 4) Stewart is more of a victim of the "Error" than any of us. 5) It's all God's fault (I mean)..God's will and Stewart was just being a good tutor 6) "Nobody told him" he was going the wrong way(even though he said God spoke to him on a regular basis 7) Remember that Stewart is the only one who can fly the plane..8) Remember that although you're not married and Stewart takes responsibility for you not being married...Stew did repent...so expect a high volume of weddings in the near future 9) Faith is hard work 10) God purposely blinded Stewart so maybe Stewart is Paul. 11) we were kept in restraint so Stewart might be Moses 12) Stewart might be Job or Elijah...or someone really important so forgive him or else!... now are we all ready to pray together?(yes)..well...I am...
(after prayer)

Brother 7: it’s gonna take a while to digest... or throw up

Brother 8:: For me , it shows how much Jesus loves you fiercely.. where did you learn to talk like that?

Stewart: Boy ...that is my hope right there...it is said "He has become my salvation"....that
I dare trust him...what He has done for me...even through this.... ???

Brother 9: Seems to me, like a beginning, a beginning of a better relationship with Jesus
and with each other(yes) Don't count on it

Stewart: and then called out to God....is what yer saying(yeah yeah) And he knew that that’s
what he was was doing then.....same as me you and the author of Amazing Grace, the same. How humble.....Let’s hear some more brothers and sisters.....

Stewart: (whispering) that's His mercy..."yeah, you Moron!..get it straight!"...(Same ole Stew )

Stewart: You don't have the view that Salvation is over and done with. yeah ...wonder why?. (starting to..starting to now..muttering) Right kind of view of that... Otherwise Grace would no longer be grace... Amen...see you in another 17 years when everybody is going overboard on Grace.
