Actually, I think that was a typo. I thought Hoovie meant, "So [a] little thought went into that." It fit with the context, since he was saying that the name was chosen deliberately. Perhaps he can clarify. (The original statement was "So little thought went into that.") Thought, not time.
It was not a typo Miss Bratt, but yes, I believe it was chosen deliberately, with zero originality. So, sure they gave it thought, but it was simply a matter of co-opting an existing term the conservatives have been using.
This had nothing to do with this thread discussion until certain posters made it so.

Some of us understood that from the beginning, Stephen.
Wow! Thank you for this. I went to a church that taught this. I remember hearing this stuff when I was little and as an adult trying to put the pieces together of why this was taught and were they got this stuff from. I remember respectfully disagreeing with a member when I was around 12 about how there was no way this was what God wanted.
You are very welcome! The Identity junk is dangerous and has no place in Apostolic churches IMO.
Are you aware whether or not they still teach it in your former church?

I have a trip ahead of me so will be mostly absent - except for phone.
Have fun my friends!

It is no longer taught because the preacher who taught it died around 1991. The older members still believed it but most of them are gone now as well. In 1991 when we got a new preacher all of the younger members latched on to his teachings and I guess just forgot about the other stuff.
I have heard of The British Israel doctrine before.There are OPs that teach it.
