World Class what it means to me.

I heard a CEO of a large company use words like

World Class
Paradyne Shift
Deliver
Absolutley

When I hear these words I have learned to YELL in my spirit LOOK OUT HERE IT COMES! PIED PIPPER IS selling and promising stuff that cures everything.

What other words do you hear that promise everything and through experience has wrought not?

You know Buzz words. That sound wonderful but they just give us heart burn when it's all over with. I wished we could tar and feather such folks. It would stop a lot of this tom foolery....

One of my favorites was when we had "Pastor Wackadoodle" and he was trying to turn us into a "cult church" by telling us that we needed to only go to his church and not visit or associate with other churches, that we should only listen to and support TV preachers whom he approved of, that we needed to pay off the church mortgage (even though we were making double-principal payments each month), that we should only vote for Church Board Candidates who fell in line with him, and that when State Headquarters was telling him to tone it down, it was "Satan at State Headquarters".

When anyone would suggest that we use some discernment, and consider possible future ramifications of what he wanted done, his answer was, "DON'T YOU WANT TO SEE GOD AT WORK IN THIS HOUSE?" and "YOU'RE TRYING TO QUENCH THE HOLY SPIRIT!".

Oh.. I forgot touch not God's Anointed. That has been used so many times. It needs to be moved up to the top 5 on the list.

Yes that is a favorite line of many high and low and all in between to quell anyone from naming false prophets and false teachers.

"We've never done it that way before."

"We need to keep our operating funds above ___ dollars."

"We just want to love on you." (this one was like fingernails on a chalkboard)

"Empowerment."

"Diversity."

"We're from the government, and we're here to help."

Empowerment when I hear it I think of the Self Help Movement.  I know it can mean Infilling but it's got so many bad uses it reminds me of saying you sure are a gay person and it can mean a good thing or a not so good thing. I still shutter when I hear empowerment.  

Just brings out a twist that makes me want to push away from it.
