If anybody has bothered to look at HWA's telecasts, you will find that much of what he spoke about there, was also preached in sermon's during church. So the liar's at Grace International are at it again. Just as they were during the 90's. Seems they do not believe in "Freedom of Speech", they get their high priced lawyers to persecute the little person who should have the freedom to post on the internet what ever he/she wishes. It would seem that we no longer have freedom of speech, I guess then comes along next is the "famine of the word". I feel that GCI will be used to persecute the people who seek the truth along with the Catholic Church. These organizations along with the Government will stamp all freedom of press, and we will be either Fascists or Communist.

Are they pre-GTA, or post GTA, during the time when HWA had to come out of broadcast retirement, and was noticeably past his prime? <br /><br />Even in the 1970s sermons in Pasadena and at the Feast, HWA would babble on, giving the same sermon about the two trees, obviously having difficulty seeing the big type in his KJV, and often forgetting words and names, and falling back on a series of "uh"s.<br /><br />One thing about HWA. Opinions of him were never neutral, they were I-0. Some saw him as a real flamer, and others practically regarded him as the second coming. <br /><br />BB<br />Byker Bobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15602697337552385535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-226103369043606765.post-84338903981164224882015-04-18T08:03:11.886-07:002015-04-18T08:03:11.886-07:00yeah they are replacing one form of idolatry with ...yeah they are replacing one form of idolatry with another....that's progress alright ;-)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-226103369043606765.post-44444749193364641532015-04-18T07:32:39.341-07:002015-04-18T07:32:39.341-07:00ISIS is destroying those pagan idols!

All I can say is, before the 1930'...I approve.<br /><br />All I can say is, before the 1930's there was a "famine" of the Armstrongist "word" for 13.82 billion years. Nobody thought anything of it then. Not that most humans ever heard of HWA, even in his heyday. By any significant metric, we should think even during the peak of HWA's ministry, word conditions still fell into the category of "famine."<br /><br />This so-called "famine of the word" seems to me to be the normal mean condition of the universe, and the sooner we get back to "normal," the better off humanity in general will be.<br /><br />As for the destruction of historical sites, monuments, and artifacts, shame on anyone who would senselessly deface and destroy them. And I do mean "senselessly," any and all foolish rationale to the contrary notwithstanding. And I do mean "foolish"!Jesús Christopher de la Cruznoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-226103369043606765.post-66672563527504595742015-04-17T19:20:26.943-07:002015-04-17T19:20:26.943-07:00Who said "All I can say is that many of these...Who said "All I can say is that many of these materials that are on line should not be for public use.
