Any Man;
Bob is not responsible for any one's spiritual life! We have to work out our own spiritual well being. I can read both sites and read all the documentation and decide for myself what I choose to believe. Bob is not brainwashing anyone!
If anyone allows him to hurt them spiritually it is the person's fault, not Bob's!
I chose my truth years before I ever heard of Bob! I read the court documents and saw that 3ABN was depositing other ministries money into 3ABN's income! That was enough for me to have many righteous indignation moments! Yeah, that is the truth! They had posted over $14,000 of some other ministries money in 3ABN's income! How dare they do that! All it did was over state their income statement!
Not only that, but in that same year the auditors found $2.43+ MILLION dollars not posted! Then the next year they found 1.7+ MILLION not posted! This is not good!
Then Jim Gilley announces live on the air that, "They would not be borrowing from Trust Funds ever again!"
Oops! Then they are banned in Washington to write trust funds in that state until the time they had enough money available to cover those trust funds!
IT IS ORDERED and you are hereby notified that pursuant to RCW 48.38.050 Certificate of Exemption No. 294 issued to you to issue charitable gift annuities is hereby SUSPENDED Effective March 14, 2007, until further notice by the lnsurance Commissioner, or for a period of one (1) year, whichever comes first.
This suspension is applicable to the sale, solicitation, or issuance of any new charitable gift annuities in the State of Washington. Provided, however, THREE ANGELS BROADCASTING NETWORK INC shall remain fully obligated: (1) under its charitable gift annuities in force, and authorized to administer said annuities as well; and (2) to comply with all other provisions of Chapter 48.38 RCW, including but not limited to, reporting requirements and payment of annual and other fees.
THIS ORDER IS BASED UPON THE FOLLOWING:
The lnsurance Commissioner of the State of Washington finds that there presently exist conditions precluding THREE ANGELS BROADCASTING NETWORK INC from being eligible to hold a Certificate of Exemption to issue charitable gift annuities in this state. Specifically, THREE ANGELS BROADCASTING NETWORK INC failed to meet the separate reserve and surplus requirements of RCW 48.38.020(3). THREE ANGELS BROADCASTING NETWORK INC filed its annual report as of December 31, 2006 and reported a separate reserve fund balance of $7,409,935, which was less than the required minimum of 13,011,079.
Chapters 48.04 and 34.05 RCW provide THREE ANGELS BROADCASTING NETWORK INC the right to demand a hearing on this order.
SIGNED AND ENTERED this 14th day of March, 2007.
Now, I am not saying anything that the document does not say. However, it makes me wonder if the $ 5,601,144 difference is the amount they borrowed!
These are the facts that I used to decide where I stand. Then there is eBay sales from 1998-2002. These are the sales they deny making. The purchases I made say that they are lying! Why?
Yes, these are the things that caught my attention and have held it for all these years! Now the documents that Ian has posted herself and the documents set forth on http://www.3abnvjoy.com/ have been my guide! The evidence is there! If people choose not to believe it, that is great. They have stuck their heads in the sand all by themselves! Bob has not touched their spiritual life in one iota!
Let's get real for a change!
Yes Fran, GET REAL. You read what Tammy Shelton said herself about e-bay but you think you are the ONLY one that knows what you call truth. Sorry, but you are dead wrong on this one. You refuse to accept the truth simply because you don't want to. It's not any fun right? It's so much more fun to wallow in the juicy tidbits people make up out of a tiny shred of truth and go for it. If those here on AT were telling lies about YOU and your family on a public forum (instead of 3ABN and the Shelton family), YOU would be furious. And then when you tried to share the truth, to see them not accept it would really be upsetting. Honestly Fran, put yourself in the place of those you are tearing down.
You take a tidbit and blow it up into a huge deal. You take a possible mistake (last time I checked, we are ALL human and subject to make mistakes) and trump it up into a huge lie or something purposefully dishonest.
Honestly, I feel sorry for you and your ilk on this forum. Why don't you find something in your lives that excites you and is productive for good--like giving Bible studies or going as a missionary somewhere instead of TEARING DOWN GOD'S TRUTH and those who work for Him.
Junebug;
I did read what Tammy Shelton said about eBay! She lied! She said she had never had a store, yet a document was posted showing that she did have a store! Tammy lied! Why?
Tammy was not at 3ABN during 1998-2002. She and her husband came in 2002. She is not the person to get information for those prior years. I would have to ask Danny! He knows I am right. However, I do not have faith in what he says about anything because he has lied so many times in the past.
Also she laid out the processes that 3ABN used to receipt their donors! Wrong! Donors should have received an IRS Form 8283 at the time of the purchase! Nope, they gave the receipt after the fact by who knows how long after the donation! She told how they sent the financial information to accounting once a month! It should have been daily. Yes, I read every word! There is more, but it is the Sabbath.
Junebug, I am not tearing anyone down. These things are facts! Documented facts! Go back and read what I said. I am not making up those numbers. They are in court documents. They are not small mistakes. They were a reflection of exactly what was happening! I am tearing no one down. They did this all by themselves! Yes, these things I keep "harping" about are the things that they did all by themselves. It is no one else's fault. They brought it on themselves.
Yes, I believe they would like to get me to shut up because it is the naked truth. It lays things out showing others that this is what Danny and 3ABN did that is not honest and it is not right accounting wise either! I could go away, but the facts will remain the same, staring them right in their faces. These are facts that will not ever be erased. They are set in concrete for anyone who wishes may read it and see that what I have said is true.
When I say I have not heard from the IRS telling the investigation is over, it is the truth. It is not over. Sorry, but that is the truth also. Where is your documentation that what I have said is wrong? You say these are mistakes. They have been continuing these mistakes as we speak. They have chosen to continue even though the auditors have repeatedly told them it was not right! That is a mistake by choice. In other words, they choose to ignore the facts and continue to do it "their way", which is wrong and not honest.
I am sorry you feel I should remain quiet and just allow things to remain as they are. I can't. These are not thing that people who are representing my church and my God should be doing. Their behavior should be honest and above board.
I am real and this is truth. I am so sorry you choose to close your eyes to truth. You seem to not be able to see past the earthly sinful man to see what is truthful and factual.
