The No-Greater-Joy ministry is not 100% reliable.

Now when I say this.  I mean it.  It is NOT 100% reliable.  When a man owns a motorcycle and the statistics come back that 1 in 1000 people WILL DIE while riding that particular brand of motorcycle.  That means ONE in 1000 people WILL DIE.  Now granted we may "skew" the view point a little bit and say 5000 people drove their motorcycle slowly and always in grassy flat areas....so 5000 people didn't die.......  BUT there was that other "Group" of people.....those risk taker entertainer types of people.  Of course they were in the under 25 years old range.  About 5 out of 1000 people died among that group of people.  Essentially 1 in 1000 Christian marriage fail under the "Pearl's" advice....but if things are skewed a little bit (there was a problem of selfish ungodly unrepentant living in one of the children)......5 or more out of 1000 Christian marriage fail under Pearl's advice.  I would say it would be like 1 out of 100 marriages fail under the Pearl's leadership in their eyes.  In reality, its probably more like 25 out of 100 marriages fail under the Pearl's leadership.  (in comparison Anabaptist (who care for others in their community) have about a .5 out of 100 marriage failure rate in good conditions)


Needless to say, the SAME thing applies to "bible ministries."  And GOSPEL outreach.  The bible itself even indicates this!

*****The same day went Jesus out of the house, and sat by the sea side. And great multitudes were gathered together unto him, so that he went into a ship, and sat; and the whole multitude stood on the shore. And he spake many things unto them in parables, saying, Behold, a sower went forth to sow; And when he sowed, some seeds fell by the way side, and the fowls came and devoured them up: Some fell upon stony places, where they had not much earth: and forthwith they sprung up, because they had no deepness of earth: And when the sun was up, they were scorched; and because they had no root, they withered away. And some fell among thorns; and the thorns sprung up, and choked them: But other fell into good ground, and brought forth fruit, some an hundredfold, some sixtyfold, some thirtyfold. Who hath ears to hear, let him hear.
(Mat 13:1-9)

So, the Pearl's No-Greater-Joy ministry appealed to many CONSERVATIVE bible-thumping types of folks.  From what I gather, it was mostly from "white folks" of upper-lower to middle-class folks.  There was no appeal to the "Japanese" immigrant.  Rarely would the Latino believe their "style" of writing.  Now through research it is conclusive that they really were not very HEAVY BIBLE thumpers, but rather just regular "Joes" who liked "some" passages of the bible that were deemed "useful" for their particular life-style....and ignored the "rest" so to speak.

So if anyone mentioned that the "Passover" was in the Abib....they (the Pearls) would look at you like you are a crazy nut-case fool who .......doesn't know what they are "doing" in life.  But in reality, JESUS KNEW what he was doing.....on Passover.

Anyhow.  After some further investigation, it turns out that the Pearl's are just like the other "albino's" of this world.  SIN-FILLED from time to time.  Some far-right stuff that turns into something that looks like "Nazi Communist pudding."  This is simply due to "womanizing" problems (meaning the woman in the wheelchair is useless in their eyes).  They appear "good" by outward strengths, but inwardly, there are character flaws in the family.

I don't know how they want to tell their "audience" this, but one of their children is "divorced and remarried" or did in fact have something for "one-woman" and then jumped over to "another woman"......  in biblical terms that is called POLYGYNY.  I don't know WHY!!!!!  they will not tell their audience this....but if they were TRULY a GODLY ministry they WOULD deal with this issue!

Here is the article that explains more of the "juicy" details.  https://whitemail.blogspot.com/2017/05/is-mike-pearl-being-honest.html

In other words, the family is handing people "white mail" but they are not telling the truth about what really went on in their home, that led to a "problem" in the relationship in one of their children.

I think it is time to pack the bags and start listening to the Jones.'  You know that large size black family where one man has 4 or 5 wives and all the children are smiling because they survived XYZ.  They listen to "Michael Jackson" and then they pop on over to the Asian lady and learn some Chinese.  Yes, THEY home school too ya know.  They did that before "white man" developed schools.  That over sized black family ended up with Phi Beta Kappa memberships among all the children that were capable of entering college.  The down syndrome child of theirs, well, he runs a bake shop now.

What or whom can you rely upon in this world?  Answer: READ the bible and DOUBLE CHECK who is interpreting the bible for you.  If they seem a little "off color" in their interpretations, there is a red-flag.  If there is something fishy about their "love" and it seems to be with dissimulation....there is likely to be a problem, somewhere.  We are human.

Well..... this situation reminds me of this particular video.

Seems some people confuse who Jesus is (was) thinking he was someone who would "heal" their relationship problems (simply by following the same song and dance routine)....but if the person WON'T do the work of investigating the TRUTH......"mistaken" identity is likely to occur.
