And then he comes along and just a week before, second-guesses himself, and seems entirely convinced that his prediction was false. Why? Is it because he's known all along that he's not receiving any supernatural messages, and that he's just been making false prophecies all along? Ya gotta hand it to Ron, he's his own peanut gallery.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-226103369043606765.post-19610588346195850352013-05-15T08:26:56.769-07:002013-05-15T08:26:56.769-07:00Whew!

Crazy, and crazy predictions, the government puts with. Tax fraud is a different matter. But the government DOES give his church tax exempt status, which is pretty ironic. IMO, no church should receive tax-exempt status. (Though I'd have no quarrel with any charity that's an arm of a church being tax-exempt, as long as it's administered in a strictly non-sectarian fashion, and certainly the UCG-connected LifeNets "charity" would definitely NOT fit such a definition.)<br />BTW, I remember reading on a blog about Weinland- A juror commented that even though sentenced and sent to prison, Ron's scam remains intact. Clearly, the juror was seeing that his scam is beyond just tax fraud. It's a legal scam that so many preachers run, fleecing their flocks legally.<br /><br /><i>"Probably the best thing which could possibly happen to Weinerdude would be if everyone turned their backs on him, gave him absolutely zero credibility, and forced him to confront reality.<br />Unfortunately, he may already be too far gone for this."</i><br /><br />Unfortunately, it's the MEMBERS who "may already be too far gone for this".<br />The members who were more amenable to finding greener pastures already left long ago, and those who remain are more entrenched.<br />Plus, the prospect of leaving long-time friends and being shunned by them(as I've seen happen with the UCG, PCG etc.), and admitting having been wrong can be too daunting a prospect for many people. <br />Heck, they've "proved" the Truth so many years ago and their hearts are hardened into the granite of that "truth" and they're invested in it- in a tangled web of ways that would be painful to undo.<br />So they stick with where they're at, or maybe get a little excitement by hopping to the next splinter that some of their friends are also joining.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-226103369043606765.post-16228785802220558272013-05-15T02:47:25.205-07:002013-05-15T02:47:25.205-07:00The Weinerdude wrote from prison, "It was for...The Weinerdude wrote from prison, "It was for the very reason (at this stage of the end-time) to try and test the Church in a powerful way."<br /><br />MY COMMENT - This statement sounds right out of the 1970s WCG. My question, why is God ALWAYS "trying and testing his Church", the very elect?<br /><br />Doesn't God trust his people? And since God's people ALWAYS fall short and fail God's test, doesn't that guarantee that Christ will never return to this earth to establish The Wonderful World of Tomorrow? <br /><br />Richard<br /><br /> Lake of Fire Church of Godnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-226103369043606765.post-70663695859197998532013-05-14T22:30:46.186-07:002013-05-14T22:30:46.186-07:00I guess we know the drill by now.

One of the letters begins:<br /><br />Dear Annie: In response to "Wife of the Plumber," I have only one thing to say: Get out while the gettin' is good.<br /><br />Her husband is a total narcissist, and nothing is going to change him. Narcissists are superb at conning people, especially those who love them. We are the ones they treat the worst, because we have that unrealistic hope that given time things will improve.<br /><br />After almost half a century, I can attest to the fact that no matter how many chances you give, no matter how many promises they make and no matter how much you love them or how hard you work, it will never change. They see nothing wrong with themselves. It is always the other person's fault.

Really?<br /><br />Jesus will not be returning in the year 2020 nor in 2525. Those numbers look cute, do they not? Therefore, there will be predictions upcoming for them and we all know it.<br /><br />The real, serious, question is - why is a felon permitted to carry on "business as usual" from a penitentiary?

Will those other felons be allowed in his congregations to freely rob, burglarize, molest the other members?
