So let me do it. It's people who feel that they own others, and treat them accordingly. Failing to affirm this is whitewashing a great evil.<br /><br />Herb failing to eat with these might be nothing more than hiding his physical frailty rather than a moral statement.<br /><br />That Herb wasn't a vertical guy is not true. It was he who often said that 'government is everything.' He endorsed the taboo on rights in the church. Dave Pack published a letter Herb sent to all the ministers telling them that 'they can be kings on thrown now' rather than in the kingdom. He knew this meant unleashing scum ministers unto the members. I assume this was envy and power motivated. <br /><br />Herb was the king and protector of the vertical people.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-226103369043606765.post-28685622921203825092018-02-03T20:01:42.684-08:002018-02-03T20:01:42.684-08:00Aaron Dean, is a cowardly guy, why did not he say ...Aaron Dean, is a cowardly guy, why did not he say this before and directly to Rod Meredith ?, ask Don why he taught the trinity with Jim Franks Mario Seiglie and other UCG heroes ...? ..

He was known to say so many outrageous things, wasn’t he? But, mostly, he talked about the Bible, and masturbation, and homosexuality. Curiously, he also reminded us every day to keep our minds off sex. <br /><br />All these years later, I wonder if he ever realized that John 3:16 takes care of all offenses of the 613, past, present, and future for all times. Numerologists would find that juxtaposition rather interesting.<br /><br />BBByker Bobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15602697337552385535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-226103369043606765.post-47772243198177850352018-02-03T14:46:34.847-08:002018-02-03T14:46:34.847-08:00I was an 18 year old still Presbyterian oriented k...I was an 18 year old still Presbyterian oriented kid sitting in RCM's First Year Bible/Harmony (LOL) of the Gospels class when he said, "It is God, Christ, Herbert W Armstrong, Garner Ted Armstrong, MYSELF ......and a few other leading Evangelists..." <br /><br />That was the first time of many I thought, "huh?....that's a crazy thing to say.

Meredith didn't "exaggerate", though, he LIED. OFTEN.<br /><br />Dibar Apartian, weeks before his death, said that RCM had not changed in the 40 years he had known the man. We should not forget how RCM, not long before he died, lied in a court deposition about what he knew about the Scarborough situation. He also meanly, cruelly, and politically arranged the defrocking and exile of John Robinson, based in large part on LIES.<br /><br />Rod Meredith was known for saying "Liars won't be in the Kingdom." By his own testimony, RCM won't be in the Kingdom. After the third resurrection, maybe he and Rod McNair will survive long enough to wave to each other as they are consumed in the Lake of Fire.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-226103369043606765.post-43676621701036992652018-02-03T13:55:34.452-08:002018-02-03T13:55:34.452-08:00Too bad that Aaron doesn't write his memoirs o...Too bad that Aaron doesn't write his memoirs of his 12 years as steward and the several years following.

So I am right.<br /><br />HWA was sincere in his religion working hard and late at age 90.<br /><br />He didnt like the vertical people. Aaron Dean wasn t even aware about the stupid protocols and pet theories of these ministers since he enjoyed the original order of things.<br /><br />And as I have saying on many blogs and postings. Stan Rader was in control even after he left regular attendance. Thats why Tkach presided over his funeral and why the Foundation collapsed at the exact hour the last installment to the Auditorium was payed. Then as Rader had prophesied in 1980 in prinr was executed. "There would be no (real) successor to HWA".<br /><br />Ncknckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14580008070423402328noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-226103369043606765.post-31488443405934575822018-02-03T13:20:37.691-08:002018-02-03T13:20:37.691-08:00Aaron Dean the self appointed expert on everyone i...Aaron Dean the self appointed expert on everyone in WCG simply because he's out lived them.

He set much of the culture of strong control of people lives in the church.<br /><br />That thinking and action is no different than what has been deployed by all of the despot leaders of countries through time. The statement about RCM investigating any in front him or those that would stand in the way of his rise parallels the leadership of North Korea. In a statement given by a defector in the oval office this week, a woman described being detained and imprisoned for nine years for the egregious crime of growing up with and knowing the North Korean leaders' wife. She was told you know too much about her. <br /><br />I think the most interesting statement in Aaron Dean's article is the fact that HWA never came to dine with the vertical hierarchy men for over ten years. And then HWA, almost near death couldn't trust many of the same vertical hierarchy men to choose a qualified successor.
