In the wide world we all inhabit, when we speak of corruption it is often advisable to follow the money.

Who holds the purse and titles/deeds for and to all of the commercial endeavors and all of the property worldwide?

Is it Eugene Spriggs widow?

The individuals within the Tribes say that they “own nothing” but obviously someone owns a lot of somethings!

One could go so far as to say they “own people”. Perhaps a modern form of slavery and mind control?

Particularly those born into and raised within the communities….people who probably have never viewed a map of the state they live in. Children and teens who wouldn’t be able to cross a street without guidance. Etc….

It is this bottom line–following the money–in which, I am certain, the real crux of the whole matter lies.

Thanks for your hard work on the website

Yahshua is also not the correct Hebrew pronunciation of the saving name in Hebrew, but Yehoshua or in short, Yeshua, which was translated even to Jesus in the Greek septuagint before Christ, a translation which the apostles used. Thus the name Jesus is valid.

All the wonderful things of the twelve tribe communities, one does not need to join the sect for. Dedicated men and women believers can also dress modestly and plainly outside the sect, eat clean foods, stop shaving live outside in nature and choose not to own a television set, nor play video games or walk in the ways and fashions of the world, and voluntarily meet in various places. And there are many places where you can homeschool your children and raise them as you see fit.

Because at the core of this sect, they are as much in Babylon as the rest of us. You won’t be able to escape the world here any more than you could elsewhere, it is an illusion, because fundamentally they still require you to have a passport or some sort of ID and health insurance, the same basic requirements in society, plus, they also rely on money, and you will have to work even more hours than in the world. Infrastructure and the industries of the world sustain them and their corporation. They live in heated and insulated houses like the rest of us, with running water and many modern luxuries. In many ways I have more respect for the Amish, but also the nomadic Bedouins and other tent-dwellers in terms of lifestyle.

When your heart is set on the gospel, Jesus creates this desire within you to be different from the world, no matter the pressure of the mainstream. It doesn’t matter where you are. You do not need to live in a extremely authoritarian and controlled sect for this.
But the twelve tribe sect makes it seems as if this kind of life is only possible within their borders. This is just not true. I do not see there the building of a storng personal faith on who they call Yahshua, even their faith seems to be outsourced to the whole. What happens to them when the community fails them? Many will probably lose their faith and become totally sheepwrecked, because they did not build it on the unshakeable rock, but on a foundation of of a mere man, spriggs.
