Spanky Training His Heir Apparent?


Has Rod seen the writing on the wall? Has all of his failed prophecies and predictions started to wear him down? Rod has brought in his son Jim to be his right hand man and to start training him.

Is LCG soon to go the way of GTA's little sect?  When you check out GTAEA's web site you would never know GTA had died unless you did some fishing around on the site.  Mark Armstrong is not a good speaker so all they can do is replay over and over old GTA programs. Necromancy seems to be alive and well in the various splinter cults of Armstrongism.

Given Jim's track record from when he was in Pasadena growing up, LCG is in for a bumpy road!  Will the obsession for fake prophecy, sex and queers continue on?  Time will tell.

Aw sheesh! If this proves to be true, then there's only one word for it: nepotism.

Like the Apostle Paul I suppose, RCM can say, "well, the things I shouldn't do, (appoint a son) I do, (aw shucks he knows the combo to the safe). The things I should do, ( not invest in gold using member offerings), I do or did, or so they say but there are other things. But no major sins of course fellows and girls."

Ecclesiastes 2:18-19 leaps to mind:

Yea, I hated all my labour which I had taken under the sun: because I should leave it unto the man that shall be after me. And who knoweth whether he shall be a wise man or a fool? yet shall he have rule over all my labour wherein I have laboured, and wherein I have shewed myself wise under the sun. This is also vanity.

I believe that this is something called "poetic justice".

My vote? "Fool". Like father like son.

The nickname of Spanky will attain a new meaning.

Ironic. I know members of the LCG who had very little positive things to say about RCM's son- and they were good, loyal, members. But that was then. This is now. And now is the only thing that exists. If RCM says that his son is worthy to take the reigns, then he is worthy. God wouldn't let him do it otherwise, right?

Another parasite sucking off the teat of the masses.

COG activity rarely gets a rise out of me these days. But this honestly disturbs me. I have nothing but contempt for RCM, but I always saw him as a True Believer. Initiating a hereditary "monarchy" puts a damper on that world view. But then again, he is only doing what HWA was planning to do. Maybe this is the way he justifies it.

An aside: The picture of RCM reminds me of photos taken of old Nazis living out their old age in South America. Except RCM continued the Religious Reich, unlike the Nazis.

What happened to Rod's son Michael?

Interesting, if true!
At Living's website, I flipped through the most recent 300 sermons they offer(I looked from the present back to '06), and among those, there's only one from Jim Meredith, with an air date of March 18, 2011.

I listened to it at-
http://www.lcg.org/cgi-bin/lcg/sermons/lcg-sermons.cgi?category=Sermon1&item=1299826849

Jim is far from a gifted speaker. He has a tendency to say the wrong words and then correct himself. He appears rather wooden, too.
If Jim Meredith is indeed going to be RCM's replacement, I think the other men in Living's upper echelon would be justifiably angry.

I also noticed that Living's kind of heavy on the "Rods", as far as Living's top speakers go- there's Rod Meredith, Rod McNair, and Rod King, which is kind of funny considering how obsessed with sex and spanking that RCM has been.

I am reminded of William Shatner on Boston Legal as a lawyer made by the judge (over William Shatner's protests) defender of a child rapist murderer who was a truly evil man.

William Shatner looked the criminal in the eye, in front of the judge and everyone in court and said, rather succinctly:

"I hope you die!"
