Folks are probably wondering why I have been silent about Randy and CiM so long (since New Years or so), probably to the delight of CiM elders. It’s long and complicated and will try and explain some of it here, and why I decided to poke my nose out here for this again.
Why am I writing here again now? 2 reasons. 2 stirrings occurred almost simultaneously. One is a former CiM elder contacted me asking me to remove quotes from him, believing that those quotes from the ex-CiM members forum were enough.
He has been trying to distance himself from Randy, CiM for a long while now. But maintains that the work he did before was of God (that of exposing Randy). So he doesn’t want to dis it nor make it disappear. He also doesn’t want folks thinking we are working in ministry together, and we are not. However as noted by Maurice a few months ago, this ex-elder and me have reached 1000’s about the dangers of Randy Shankle and CiM. And the ex-elder agrees with Maurice’s statement.
When the ex-elder discovered that the forum was not accessible to the unknowing, and since he didn’t want to link to it himself, he relented on the quotes, believing they are a valid tool.
The 2nd reason I am writing again, is a report has come to me that someone in CiM has a brain tumour and Randy is soon to leave for South Africa again.
I stated many times in 2008 and perhaps earlier, the time has come that it is a danger to be in CiM. Many people are getting serious ailments, and some are dieing, more than the norm.
Those of you still in the Church in Marshall should flee for your lives and health, especially those of you with family and children!
Rather than rewrite what I already said on South Africa, I will just repost from the time I discovered Randy was headed back to South Africa, and add more comments:

I also only have 1 clip to share from the Monday morning meeting. And this is a
Warning to South Africa!
Randy is going to South Africa again, and is planning to destroy more churches there. Listen here:
You see, he thinks he has the right to destroy in the name of God. Let’s say that he does find some churches out of order in South Africa. Is he supposed to rip them apart from the top down like the gentiles? Or is he supposed to teach them in meekness from the bottom up, so they can change themselves?
Mark 10:42: But Jesus called them to him, and saith unto them, Ye know that they which are accounted to rule over the Gentiles exercise lordship over them; and their great ones exercise authority upon them.
1 Cor 4:21: What will ye? shall I come unto you with a rod, or in love, and in the spirit of meekness?
Gal 6:1: Brethren, if a man be overtaken in a fault, ye which are spiritual, restore such an one in the spirit of meekness; considering thyself, lest thou also be tempted.
2 Tim 2:25: In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth;
Titus 3:2: To speak evil of no man, to be no brawlers, but gentle, shewing all meekness unto all men.
James 3:13: Who is a wise man and endued with knowledge among you? let him shew out of a good conversation his works with meekness of wisdom.
If others operated like Randy did, then someone would come and sit Randy down by force. I wonder how well he would handle that? Oh, that’s right he disowned Clarence Hill Sr. and others he had submitted to when they brought correction!
(Randy is a hypocrite!)
Randy has gone to Africa before and wrecked havoc. Calling a minister’s wife a vessel of Jezebel or satan, causing divorces, family break ups, and church splits.
Now he is planning to do the same again!
WATCH OUT SOUTH AFRICA!
One of Randy’s favorite authors speaks about this subject. Watchman Nee talks about ministers going to other countries and causing problems. Local authorities should be involved in this matter, and all should be done in meekness from the bottom up, not the top down.
(Some may note that this whole stance by Nee was the inspiration of the local church movement, some of which is extreme, but there is a relevant truth to some of it, but the point being Randy is missing even the wisdom of Nee on this)
When Paul saw that the elders in Jerusalem were in error about making Gentiles submit to Jewish law and custom, did he go in there and remove authorities? No, in fact he submitted to their idea even though that idea did not seem to come down to us as a Biblical standard to follow. That was, a list of don’ts for Gentiles to follow. Do the churches today follow any such list? Did Paul preach that list elsewhere? Not that we know of. But he still submitted to the church authorities and didn’t cause any major divisions.

So this is why I am speaking out again. Which leads me to why I was silent. While CiM may have rejoiced I was quiet, their joy was only self deception. While it may be true that further commentary of their services and doings may be helpful, I have enough content and witness no further action is required. Some folks may want me to continue, I believe such would help those already in CiM, but I believe that my comments from 2008 show with strong evidence that Randy Shankle is a false prophet. See here:
http://kingdomgospel.wordpress.com/2009/01/03/randy-shankle-is-a-false-prophet/
That should be sufficient evidence, enough with all the rest I have, for current CiM members to see his error. As well as the fruit of the ailments in the church.
But why did I stop?
At one point it was sufficient enough for CiM to simply claim my commentaries were lies.
In the above clip Jeff goes on about how I represent the father of lies (satan). You can hear other clips where Randy and Jeff speak about how I lie here:
http://kingdomgospel.wordpress.com/audio-clips/
The whole thing caused a current member (at the time) to email me (and attempt to leave comments on this blog) demanding I stop telling lies, Jerry Iverson was his name. I published some of his accusations, and then gave evidence to my comments by quoting Randy and Jeff. And that’s what I began to do. I began posting clips from them, so people can hear with their own ears the errors of Randy and CiM. This infuriated Randy, and hence why he called me his nemisis. You can hear that at the link above as well.
Seeing how effective I was, they 1st changed their entire website to have more control over who watches their broadcasts. This was a huge financial cost. Jerry Iverson stated that this change would stop me. It didn’t for awhile.
This made matters worse for CiM. Eventually they had to post someone in full time work scanning for my presence when watching their broadcasts to ban me, because their software programs were not doing it.
This occurred at the New Years meetings. They were so intimidated by my presence they stopped all new accounts from being activated by anyone with Gmail accounts! And they began banning everyone using anonmous surfing software. They did this because they couldn’t track me specifically.
I knew that that day would come. I spoke about it years earlier on the ex-CiM members forum and on this blog as well. But that day did not mean God was done, nor did it mean CiM was successful. Because I was able to gather all the evidence necessary before this to show Randy’s error and him being a false prophet.
They even emailed me a threat to take legal action, and that’s why I did my homework and posted the legality of what I am doing on the link I gave above.
They may come forward and state I lied and deceived them in my attempts. I did indeed try to deceive them but I never lied. I wrote an email stating I had a hostile spouse who didn’t want me to watch CiM services and was using anonymous software to be more hidden in doing so. And that email is true. Some of which I have discussed here on this blog. Especially when I state that like Randy, I am unqualified as an elder because of my marriage. Though he is unqualified for other reasons, anyways not gonna chase that rabbit here, you can read more about that elsewhere.
Suffice it to say I knew before sending that email, it could be the straw that breaks the back. I even corresponded with someone before hand asking their opinion. Also stating that using such a soulish maneuver may not provide any true answers. And I was right. But I also maintained I would not cover this and would speak about it openly, and so I am.
This brings me to another very important point. In Randy’s Merismos book and teachings, he discusses what the difference is between someone in the spirit and in the soul. They booth may operate in the same manners and same ministries, at least for a season.
And I saw this coming. I knew that there was a season I was to go “tit for tat” with CiM in my commentaries. But to do so forever would remain soulish.
I knew the day would come, if I went any further it would be in the flesh. The heart, as the Merismos speaks about is where the spirit and flesh meet. Thus in the heart one can operate in soul or spirit. If I were to continue at such a point, it would be evidenced by me having to work and that work would produce sweat and would be hard labour.
In fact I could continue but it would cost me financially and would be a lot of work. That is evidence that the time to stop is at hand. And evidence that CiMcontinued in the flesh. They decided to spend the money and the man hours to stop me. They probably have spent thousands of dollars in this effort. While true this money spent can be used for other reasons, such as more control over their broadcasts. That cost has hurt them tremendously. They have even asked folks to pay to watch the SoP classes. Which by the way, Randy stated would be available for free. I have that recorded somewhere but haven’t made the clip available yet.
CiM has done the same as the financial crisis of America, they have spent too much money! Much of that reason was to stop me.
More fruit and evidence that the rulership of Randy is not of God.
C’mon CiM members wake up!
So here I am. I have stated to persons interested I may try and watch more CiM broadcasts in the future. But I am not gonna bend over backwards to do so. That would be evidence I was in the flesh. If I can suceed without sweat, then I know I am okay. But right now, I am done, and have other things on my plate.
I do have some audio I still have to sort thru, and some clips may come out of that, as stated above. But there isn’t much and nothing too important. Perhaps a couple months down the road I may publish some clips and try watching services again. But there is no promise or certainty in that. But I have ears and eyes out there. And get reports of doings going on. And will make such available here when needs be.
