The Apostle has laid down instructions for you disillusioned COG members who are tired of the UCG/ COGW/LCG politics and hypocrisy. The Apostle is the ONLY man on earth today preaching the truth, so HEED his teachings! The Apostle does not have the funds to start his own Feast site this year, so he is encouraging all of you apartment dwellers to pitch a tent inside your apartment so you can experience the Feast in your temporary dwelling. Do you own a farm or have some land? Pitch a tent in the woods and stay there for the eight days.
Those who have nowhere to go, might chose to go to a place where they can study intensely without the distractions of the many carnal activities usually associated with the modern feast observance. Or if funds are a major problem they might consider camping out on their farms or in their back yards. Apartment dwellers might, as a last resort only; set up a tent indoors to act out the analogy of being travelers in a strange land. I say as a last resort only.
But before you do this you must cut some branches from your trees and wave them around for eight days and pay reverence to them. You are not to build 'booths' with them, but are to wave them. The
rest of hte COG's are ignorant about this awesome revelation that Apostle Malm has had.
As we are to abide in Christ, so is the main harvest to learn to abide in Christ! The branches [people] represent the main harvest of humanity being brought into the Temple [family] of God. We are to rejoice with our branches; to represent the great rejoicing as the main harvest of humanity is brought into the family of God!

The real problem is financing the trip to "the place where God has placed His Name".
There is no tithing on wages in Scripture. None. Paying three tithes is not an option either. There was only one tithe and it was from farm produce, from 'the land the Lord gave to thee' to be used for the Feast of Tabernacles. The third year in seven, you stayed in your local community to keep the Feast and gave your tithe to the fatherless and widow that they could rejoice at the Feast.
I suppose that you could attend a Christian Feast / Bible Camp but Armstrongists, terribly spoiled by the trappings of Corporate Conferences of this world (replete with partying and excessive drinking) just couldn't -- as one Armstrongist put it -- "get in to it". Attend one of these and you'll probably give up Feast going, particularly if you wake up screaming in a camper with a rat less than a foot from your face (actually happened).
So attend the Feast where you will. It is commanded. (Is it really?) The Sabbath and the Holy Days -- as Herbert Armstrong said -- stand or fall together. (Do they?)
All I want to know is the Scriptural proof for all this, because it seems to be sorely lacking, let alone there being one shred of sanity, science or logic to it all.
Not a bad time of year to go camping in lots of places. The crowds are pretty well gone.
But, I'll choose my time, location and activities, thank you. I'll also go where my interests are greatest and my money adequate. Sitting in a comfortable boat and catching my dinneer sounds pretty relaxing. At least the fish won't harangue me -- poor unfortunate things.
