Jennifer,

Energy drinks are not allowed at WOFF. Are you surprised? “I would be curious to know how the WOFF views their member’s consumption of anything that may be detrimental to overall health???” Somethings are labeled as taboo. (diet or regular Cheerwine, ginger ale, root beer, “deviled eggs” and other such demonic “carcinogens”.) Other things such as “Carolina Pride” hot dogs are Jane’s favorite! (don’t burn them!) Last I checked hot dogs were made of “animal leftovers”… Though it causes confusion and destroys critical thinking, a constant diet of Jane-isms was/is required to be a faithful member of WOFF. Studies have proven Jane-isms are bad for one’s emotional, mental and spiritual health. So, no, the requirements at WOFF are not consistent. 🙂

Take Hold! was a WOFF phrase, I never tried the drink. Not sure how I would benefit from drinking their words- again. 🙂

Thank you for asking.

John

So I have to ask over a year later…did you ever try this drink? Is it an energy drink? If so, I have to question if the WOFF would condone their members consuming energy drinks…maybe the phrase is not connected with their group and is only used in coincidence, but ironic and humorous either way!

Seems to me like the medical community is questioning the long term effects of energy drinks and supplements on our bodies and functions, and I would be curious to know how the WOFF views their member’s consumption of anything that may be detrimental to overall health???

In reply to Randall Jones.

Randall,
Yes, having a car and a job outside the church certainly helped me to be able to leave. It does not work that way for many members.
There are resources for those folks who want to leave, it is hard to make them aware of what is available. John

Those who go back need money. When they left the church if they had no emotional support in the way of a family member of friend they miss the constant contact with people. Many go back because they are broke and need money. The skills they had were for a job within the church group, so when they leave they have no skills and cannot use the church as a reference! So, they get desperate and go back because they are broke.

I have no desire to go back. I love the people but not the deceptive controlling message that is constantly delivered. I do not miss it.!! And I am not wasting my life. I feel more spiritually alive than I have in years. I feel as if my friends at church are supportive and happy for me and want me to succeed!!! NOT tearing me down and being judgemental. We dress for comfort, not for show. GOD loves me for who and what HE created me to be!!!!!Just give me JESUS!!!!!!
