Good luck in getting it right. Last I checked, nobody but nobody has it right (say, can you tell me the difference between the Lord's Supper and the Passover? Do you really think they are the same thing and should be kept on the same day, when Jesus didn't?).<br /><br />So here's the deal: God isn't telling anyone definitively when the holydays are being kept because He doesn't want Christians keeping them.<br /><br />And let's face it, the same principle applies to prophecies based on British Israelism.<br /><br />Fools.<br /><br />All you members of the Cult of Herbert Armstrong Mafia are fools.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-226103369043606765.post-7025636451460475612014-11-06T07:38:21.545-08:002014-11-06T07:38:21.545-08:00Why stop there?

So, maybe Malm is getting closer to this by having extra holy days. But, I doubt it.<br /><br />BBByker Bobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15602697337552385535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-226103369043606765.post-33991461105547616482014-11-05T18:15:05.093-08:002014-11-05T18:15:05.093-08:00Connie is right.

What's more, our current crop of "too-complex-for-our-own-good" financial derivatives only developed in the early 1980's when John Hull engineered the first ones using computers to simulate large populations of stochastic random walks (Monte Carlo Simulation). These days, using proprietary volatility index algorithms, financial houses like J.P. Morgan can tell banks how much they must hold in reserves so that under 95% of circumstances they will be able to cover all positions they may hold, whether they be savings accounts, investments in the money market or in other financial markets.<br /><br />If you're not up to this level, I doubt you have much chance of being able to appease an ancient Canaanite deity who demands perfect technical observance. All I can say is James Malm's god's heaven is going to be a ghost town. James himself is too much of a numbskull to qualify, that's for sure.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-226103369043606765.post-37065807490296894182014-11-05T17:58:31.949-08:002014-11-05T17:58:31.949-08:00See?

You can see a Judaizing ultra-orthodoxy quickly evolving before your very eyes in the tiny cult of James Malm. Give it another few years and James Malm will require whoever is idiotic enough to believe him and follow him to keep all the Jewish festivals for more than one day.<br /><br />And once again, where do James Malm's "statistical probabilities" come from? Is he just pulling them out of his ass once again?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-226103369043606765.post-79795791605444691462014-11-05T17:03:05.120-08:002014-11-05T17:03:05.120-08:00Lets start a hedge fund to cover all bets!
Offer...Lets start a hedge fund to cover all bets! <br /><br />Offer is 20 to 1 payoff for the lesser likely day to hit, and only a 1.05 to 1 payoff for the more likely day. Of course with an appropriate "tithe" or 10% vigorish on the transaction for the fund (the house) for covering all the bets. <br /><br />The line will be able to move based upon wagers and to insure that there is equal hedging action on both sides of the wager. <br /><br />Believe it or not, this is how Lloyds of London has operated for centuries!

Malm is unemployed. He can take any day off work that he desires. But I'm not sure he has thought this through. Many of his dumb sheep will have used up all their vacation days keeping the Canaanite/Israelite feasts, so this extra day will be a day without pay, which will mean LESS TITHE MONEY going to Malm. Once he figures that out, watch for a new twist on his Pharisaic pronouncements.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-226103369043606765.post-41338818865566057072014-11-05T13:01:57.374-08:002014-11-05T13:01:57.374-08:00What if Saturday is not the real 7th day?
