Re: Nate Wilson: Strongholds and a Ministers Meeti
Bishop Wilson is one of my Elders in the WPF. I heard him in Branson MO. a few months ago. Have any of you heard of Br. Verbal Bean? Br. Wilson related in Branson, that he recieved his call to the ministry, under Verbal Bean. Br. Bean died in April 0f 1977 I believe. He was an awesome Man of God, he very much operated in the gifts of the Spirit.

Tim,
Verbal Bean has been discussed here at AFF and extesnively at AFF's predecessor forms, Faithchild Forum and New Faithchild Forum.
He is a hero to ultra cons everywhere as a leader in the AMF split off of the UPC back in the 60's.
From all I hae seen posted it appears that he had great intellect but was a strange combination of the profound and the bitter. Of course many of the early AMF bunch were that way. Bitterness and animosity toward the UPC was rampant. However as one ultra con has said those wars are long over. While the AMF still views the UPC as way too liberal you don't see as much overt animosity toward it and when you do I don't think it has the bitterness attached to it the early AMFers had.

"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.
"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.
"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."
