Apostle Malm: It is a SIN to Pay Road Tolls On The Sabbath!

If you thought Armstrongism could not get any wackier, take a look at the illogical thought process of Apostle Malm.

One of his acolytes asked:

Will UCG now begin to have some respect for the Sabbath by not cooking, traveling, or paying others to serve them on High Days and Sabbaths as God has commanded?

The Apostle replies:

The fact that Chairman Rhodes admits using public transport in London on the Sabbath should provide at least a partial answer. (How in the hell is a person not from the UK supposed to travel around London, especially if they were going to preach at a UCG service?)

Should we do what Orthodox Jews such as former U.S. Vice Presidential candidate Joseph Lieberman does on Sabbath – park the car and simply walk everywhere, including to worship?

I would gass up on Friday and then drive to a service myself. I think that in nearly all cases some kind of transportation arrangement can be made that does not involve paying for public transport. To me a Sabbath day’s journey by car is one that does not require any purchase [like more gas] and that does not tire [like work], say roughly somewhat less than an hour. (There you have it folks, no more two hour drives to be with like minded brethren, 45 minutes is your max because you will get tired. Oy!) In some cases issues such as road tolls can usually be dealt with by buying in advance, or using other roads, or if necessary establishing more local congregations. If we are trying to please God, he WILL provide the wisdom and the means. Your Orthodox example shows the lack of wisdom in modern apostate Judaism; for what requires more effort; to walk a mile or drive it? This is the same as the man who climbs four flights of stairs to avoid using electricty; just plain counter productive. In any case going to a [hopefully] godly assembly, is a little different than paying for a totally unnecessary restaurant meal [because we have not properly prepared ourselves]. Its all about zeal for the commandments coupled with wisdom. James (Actually it is all about burdening down members with useless, irrelevant rules and regulations!)

Does the Apostle not see the hypocrisy in his writings when he is sitting home on a Friday night and Saturday mornings using his computer, electricity, and someone else Internet service to post his drivel?  Why is he breaking HIS holy sabbath by doing such secular things?  Why is he profaning HIS sabbath?  Why does he not prepare all his missives and post them at 3:00 on a Friday afternoon so he will not be breaking HIS sabbath?

The Apostle Says: Stop Sending Money To Your Sinful COG HQ!

Poor Herb just cannot get a break anymore.  Dissidents have picked at him for years. Ministers and members have rebelled.  Now the latest Apostle is claiming Herb started watering down the gospel and doctrines starting in the late 1960's.  Of course there is the proverbial bogey man that caused it - Stan Rader.  Rader caused HWA to slip further down that slippery slope into grievous sin.

The Apostle writes today:

You should also know that there was very little real difference between GTA and his father, Ted’s ouster was a political maneuver arranged by Stan Rader and come over Ted’s sexual problems rather than doctrine.  You should also know that the major COG Groups today only pay lip service to HWA and have actually made many changes to his positions.   In fact they SHOULD be willing  to grow and change and should have never paid lip service to him in the first place.  Instead they have paid lip service to him as if he were a god while continuing on the path of more and more doctrinal laxity and lukewarmness.

HWA was always all about the money and always ran the church as a business, and his way of dealing with the financial crisis was not to cut back on his friend Rader, but to loosen the baptismal requirements that he had been using before about 1969.  After that time a gradual loosening came about as first one thing and later another went by the wayside.  The fundamental requirement had always been loyalty to HWA so they were just loosening the degree of doctrinal understanding that they required.

That is to say, if they agreed with whatever HWA said than they were acceptable.  Herbert himself watered down doctrine greatly after the late 60 including such things as buying food and drink on Sabbath, traveling on Sabbath, attending pagan religious activities like christmas was allowed by him, he changed from one extreme to the other on D & R allowed birthdays etc etc.

In fact the Tkach changes were only the natural end result of HWAs process of becoming personally lukewarm for doctrine and zealous for numbers and money; into what the COG Groups now teach.

The Apostle is trying to warn the COG's that they are grievous sinners because they eat out on Saturdays, might watch some TV or go to the park.  Gone are the days of having to dress up in "sabbath wear" while at home whenever the broadcast came on.  Gone are the days eating cold leftovers on Saturdays when you got home from an incredibly long and boring church service. Gone are the days of having to eat dried beef sandwiches on stone ground whole wheat bread and carob cookies while during home on the long 150 mile trip.  Of course having to drive over 300 miles for church services was not considered a sin for some reason.

Today all the major groups pay lip service to the Sabbath as they routinely pollute it, by buying in restaurants, going on extensive travel and fudging on the Sabbath  and Holy Days

Disgusting sinners!  Vile reprobates!  You deserve to be thrown in the lake of fire! Filthy commandment breakers!

So how does the Apostle plan on stopping this grievous abuse of the sabbath?  He wants members to stop sending in money to these organizations.

These people are about M O N E Y and are lax on doctrine.  As long as people pay or contribute in other ways they will tolerate a great deal.  Stop contributing, or make waves so that others may be influenced and watch how quickly they act. 

While he doesn't say it, you can bet he wants that money sent to him so he can perform his mighty work of warning to the church!

All of this is enough to make me go out and buy a McRib on Saturday.  Might as well kill two birds with one stone......maybe that's three considering that money is going to a pagan business when it should have been sent to a True Church.

Lucifer Created HWA's Pyramid Syle of Government

I bet Herb does not like hearing this!  Apostate Malm writes:

Lucifer instituted the “Pyramid” system whereby there were layers of authority and each layer intervened and came between the top and the lower layers.  In this way he came between the angels and God and they were taught that to question or disobey him would cut them off from God.

That was the beginning of the “Pyramid” system of church governance.

HWA condemned any type of ministerial authority for years when he did not want to be subject to it.  Then he began to teach the “Pyramidal” system of church government with himself at the top.  HWA then reversed his position on Peter being the chief apostle and began to teach that Peter was indeed the chief apostle and that he  HWA was the later day Peter.  This was the Catholic Primacy of Peter, although that title was seldom used for the doctrine because it linked the WCG with Roman Catholicism.

HWA set up the Satanic “Pyramid” system which was proved to be so wrong by Joe Tkach.  God allowed an apostate to become the WCG leader to teach his people that NO man was ever to be our ultimate moral authority.  There is NO mediator or intercessor between men and God except Jesus Christ.

What Apostate Malm says about Tkach is true!  He brought to light that no man stands between us and God, no law-keeping stands between us and God, and no church stands between us and God despite of what Apostate Malm says!.  If Tkach Sr. accomplished nothing more than this, then he was the right man for that job.  That does not gloss over all the other crap that he did, but in this aspect he was right on the money!

Touch Not The Unclean

Apostle Malm was asked today by one of his acolytes on how to know when a woman is menstruating:

How do you know you are around women that are menstruating? Pls tell….
I am sure that they will not shout that out. However your own wife can let you know that she is not available. If you are thinking of being unclean by inadvertent touching of an unclean person, let me remind you that virtually everybody is unclean through eating pig etc etc. We live in an unclean world today; that does not mean that we should not do what we can in matters that we have control over. We should also understand that the laws of clean and unclean have their spiritual counterparts in avoiding contamination by sin. That certainly includes vicarious sins. James

Thankfully Jesus had no problem with unclean women or tax collectors, or the dispossessed, or the dregs of society.

The Apostle Seeks To Prove His Legitimacy

I started calling James Malm "The Apostle" some time back.  That is the impression he gives off to people as to what he thinks he is.  Today he is seeking to clarify what apostles are and why he can be considered one.

The term apostle is derived from Koine Greek ἀπόστολος (apóstolos), meaning one who is sent forth as a messenger in contrast to a disciple who is a “student” that learns from a “teacher”.  Apostle is the Greek equivalent of the Hebrew word shaliah.

A Shaliah is an appointed emissary, or official representative of a Sender.  The New Testament equivalent is a person appointed as an official emissary of Jesus Christ or of any congregation of the faithful.  This is akin to the word “prophet” which means “spokesman” by divine influence.

Malm has always considered himself as specially appointed by God at this important time in church history to deliver a warning to the backsliding Church of God members.  His message is not to the world because the world does not understand God's word.  His message is only to those who have, according to him, been taken in by the subtle false teachings of various men in UCG, and other COG's.

Prophets still remain in the New Covenant, their role being to preach repentance and revealing things not  otherwise known; however the apostle is to carry on the work of Christ in magnifying the law and revealing its spiritual nature and intent.

Malm has always seen himself as the person described in the second half of the above comment. He believes he is "carrying on the work of Christ in magnifying the law and revealing it's spiritual nature."  Malm is all about the law.  The more rules and regulations he can demand that people keep the better.  Only backsliding heathens eat out in restaurants on Saturdays, buy gas for their cars, buy their kids an ice cream cone on that long drive home from church, etc.

The only problem with Malm's logic is that he CANNOT keep all the law perfectly and never will.  All he needs to do is break one little itty-bitty law and he has broken all 613 of them. Because he breaks hundreds of laws every single day is cannot be considered an apostle or even a spokesman for God.  He is just one of many hundred of men who have set themselves up as "prophetic voices" speaking out to the Churches of God through through the last 70 some years.  Every single one of them has fallen by the way side and produced no good fruit.

The Apostle Says: I WILL NOT KEEP SILENT!

Apostle Malm is like so many in the long list of self appointed witnesses to the brethren. Hundreds have came and gone proclaiming "god's final message" to the church.  "The end is nigh, repent and return to the Lord."  "I am the only one proclaiming the truth to the brethren at this time!  Heed my call!"

Of those hundreds of prophets, apostles and splinter cult leaders that Armstrongism has birthed, every single one of them has failed!  Not one thing they have said is true or has come to pass.

But this latest Apostle claims he specially anointed and will NOT  shut up!

A few scattered individuals may have been awake, but all the organizations have been deeply asleep and have been neglecting the very foundation of sound doctrine, which is to: Love God with all our hearts and to DO what he has commanded without compromise: FIRST above all else.

Mat 25:6   And at midnight there was a cry made, Behold, the bridegroom cometh; go ye out to meet him. ⁷Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps

I am crying out:  “Behold, the bridegroom cometh”.  Waking the virgins and calling on them to trim their lamps, by presenting the need for complete faithfulness to our Father and our espoused husband.

I have been given a little understanding of the prophets so that I might explain to you that the Bridegroom is indeed now coming.

Otherwise I am nothing but a simple person who looked around and saw a great need for someone to speak out, and no one was speaking out.  I could not keep silent and for the sake of God’s people I WILL NOT KEEP SILENT!

Delusions of grandeur or blatant liar?

UCG Using Evil NIV Bible and God is Ticked!

Poor Apostle Malm is having a snit fit again about UCG using the New International Version of the Bible.  According to James this Bible is demonic in it's origins and is a tool of Madam Blavatsky and Satan.

I am receiving reports from several UCG congregations that their elders have now switched to using the NIV mistranslation of the Bible.  The NIV was created by the Evangelical movement and contains very many subtle changes designed to promote the Evangelical agenda.  This book is copyrighted to make money for the group who “translated” it.  It is strongly endorsed by all Evangelical organizations including the 33 degree Mason, Billy Graham.

Do some research on the NIV: take the trouble to look up the scriptures used in the sermons in your KJV and be very careful about the subtlety of the nuanced changes.  This is not about any single obvious change, it is about a series of nuanced changes that add up to a overall total change of focus and attitude about Law, Grace and Tolerance for Sin in the name of Love!

Love.  Armstrongism's four letter word.  It's most despised concept.  How dare one love a sinner.  There are RULES! There are LAWS!  Fools!

Then the Apostle get's down to his business of warning the laodicians.The end-time is here!  Wake up!

I tell you the truth:  He delays NO LONGER!

Those who are close to God and are diligently following the lead of his spirit, have nothing to fear of the tribulation.  They know that the Eternal is their refuge.  The true and ultimate refuge is in our relationship with our Father in heaven.  We confidently know that whether we live or die; he will raise us up on that day.  No tribulation nor any other trial brings terrors to us; being filled with God’s spirit and the love of God which is the keeping of all of the Father’s commandments; we know that we love him and are pleasing to him. The perfect love of God casts out all our fears as we are filled with confident faith in HIM.

Those who are NOT zealously keeping God’s commandments and pleasing him, lack the love of God which is contained in his commandments.  They lack a close relationship with the Father, having compromised with his Law and Word.
The tribulation is God’s merciful correction for those wicked persons who would compromise with his law;  who would call the zealous foolish; who are lifted up with pride and will not receive instruction.

These people are beyond saving; for they WILL NOT be saved.  They are beyond instruction; for they WILL NOT hear.  They have left a loving Father with only one option: To bring their fears upon them; to crush their pride; to humble them; and make them once again teachable by forcing them to realize just how wrong they have been.

Almighty God is ANGRY; He is vexed at our self-righteous failure to exalt him above our corporations and human leaders.

I warn you with all gravity:  We have lost our relationship with our Father by becoming corporate church centered, rather than using  church’s as helps to become and stay GOD CENTERED.

Apostle Malm's Endtime Timeline

double click to super enlarge

The Apostle has been on a roll this week whipping up a frenzy about the tribulation and how the church is not ready.  Today he laid out how the tribulation will SPECIFICALLY happen:

The tribulation period will begin like this.

1.  A major conflict will reset the regional conditions to allow for a genuine dialogue for peace.  This peace agreement has already been reached and only the will of the party’s to implement it; and a few details remain to be worked out. Therefore an agreement could be reached in a very short time, if the Israeli coalition were to be changed and the sides were motivated. At the same time a new International Economic System will be put in place which will insulate the world from the coming events and the collapse of the US dollar.

2.   At the appointed time the final false prophet will be set up as a miracle working pope calling for a new Europe.  The foundations of that Roman revival have already been laid; all that is needed is a strong motivation and the right catalyst to make it happen.  A miracle working religious leader appearing at a time of crisis with solutions and the fact that Almighty God has put this into the hearts of these men: Will make it happen in Quick Time.

3.   Europe may be united quickly, perhaps in a matter of weeks, but the Beast emperor will ONLY [marginal rendering] have power [be allowed by God] to make war for 42 months:  Rev 13:4 
As this is being set up; Peacekeeper’s, many from Europe; will be sent to Palestine to implement the peace agreement.

4.   This final false prophet will then go to the Holy Place as the fake prince of peace, 75 days after being set up in Rome.  That will trigger the great tribulation, as the extremist Jewish Settlement Movement rejects the deal and reacts violently. Perhaps some other similar event will trigger the actual violence, either way when this abomination goes to the Holy Place the tribulation will begin with the occupation of Jerusalem and Judea.
God’s two prophets will be empowered 26 1/2 days after this false prophet has bee set up in Rome, giving them about 45 days to provide a final warning to America, Israel and the world;  BEFORE these things begin.  These two will also lead God’s faithful who respond to the warning, to a place prepared of God. They will arrive at that place as this false prophet triggers the tribulation. 

5.   One of the key elements of this peace deal is under negotiation right now.  It is a mutual defense pact between Israel and the United States.  This pact is to be made sure by the coming war and US led intervention against Syria and Iran.
The US Congress is controlled by AIPAC and the various financial institutions which finance the election campaigns.  An election year is approaching and the Congressional men and women KNOW that they must support this pact as well as the defense of Israel during this summers conflict.  That lays the foundation for American support of Israel in their conflict with Europe.

6.   When the United States threatens the new Europe to back off of Israel, the Beast will strike first, because this is of God.  He will strike with a massive Cyber Attack that will bring the United States crashing down.  It is possible that a few nuclear bombs will also be used, but relatively few will be necessary!  For that the Force de Frappe is all that will be required. Please note the naval nuclear power of France, also note that each submarine missile tube carries a missile which in turn can carry up to ten weapons.

At the same time the Islamic world with the exception of  Egypt; will fully support Europe in its campaign against Israel and her allies.  In fact the whole world, fed up and seeing the Israelis and  their allies as great war mongers; will support the European forces.


GOD WILL BRING THE WHOLE WORLD AGAINST THE  JUDEO ANGLO AMERICAN COMBINE! 

THIS IS NOT JUST A MATTER OF A FEW EUROPEAN COUNTRIES AGAINST THE JUDEO ANGLO SAXON PEOPLE! 

IT IS ALMIGHTY GOD BRINGING THE WHOLE WORLD AGAINST US FOR THE MULTITUDE OF OUR TRANSGRESSIONS!!!

7.   This attack will leave Judea occupied and America in a state of  collapse, unable to respond.  Americans will be fighting for survival in a chaotic situation of  unraveling government  authority; as neighbour strives with neighbour for survival, natural religious and racial animosities will surface with violent result.  Unable to import oil, there will be a massive famine and lack of food, no fuel for plowing, planting, harvesting and distribution. A population weakened by famine will be susceptible to disease and massive epidemics will break out. Domestic fuel supplies will be fought over; I think you get the picture; chaos and a struggle for survival.
The total collapse will be an ongoing process that will last the entire 42 months. When the pride of our people has at last been finally and completely broken: the true deliverer will come with his saints to usher in a true New World!

During this time Europe will enjoy great prosperity for a couple of years, then they shall go to war against the Asian nations.

The next war will be a new kind of war mingled with the old.  There will be no need for occupation after defeat, although the enemy may want control of some critical nodes and bases.  The US fleet will be forced to go to various ports and may then enter into agreements to help defend host nations like Japan in exchange for succor.

The Apostle Tells You How You WILL Observe The Sabbath

The Apostle has laid down the law on how you should be observing the Sabbath.  Epescially for you disgruntled COG members who are disturbed by all the constant upheavals in the COG's.  So you have jumped ship from UCG into COGaWA.  You now realize you made a mistake and don't know what to do.  So feeling sorry for yourself you want to sit at home on your sorry little behind and whine.  But have no fear, the Apostle is here and has specific instructions for you!

Apostle Malm's rules and regulations are:

Rule 1: First the Sabbath is a commanded assembly. Lev 23:3  Six days shall work be done: but the seventh day is the sabbath of rest, an holy convocation; ye shall do no work therein: it is the sabbath of the LORD in all your dwellings.

 Rule 2: This does NOT mean assembling with just anyone!  We are to assemble with like minded persons in a godly manner.

 To assemble with heathen is not a HOLY convocation;

(i.e. you are not to assemble with anyone outside the COG.  Even then they must be strong, firmly rooted believers in HWA's teachings.)

Rule 3:  To be HOLY any convocation must be in their name [by their authority or command] and it must be God centered; Christ centered; and centered on the Father.

(i.e.  Since they do not know Jesus and ignore what he taught they do not know the Father.)

Rule 4: Assembling with those who will not obey the Father and will not accept his instruction and correction through his spirit ARE NOT SONS OF THE FATHER!  They are NOT brothers of those who do love the Father enough to obey him and accept his instruction.
Each brother is to assemble with Christ and the Father.  That IS the PRIORITY; the FOCUS!

(i.e.  Armstrongism always has to label people as 'others'.  It needs a bogeyman to blame and to make themselves feel more special and set apart)

Rule 5:We must assemble with those who we have proved to ourselves are of the same mind and have the same spirit of God.

Who did Adam and Eve assemble with?  Who did Enoch assemble with?  What corporate church did Noah assemble with?  The key is to stand with the Almighty and NOT with men; then those who do likewise will come together.  After that Satan will sow his tares until they rise to the top and take over any corporation and then those faithful to God will leave to be loyal to him and start anew.  That is the history of the New Covenant assembly of the Called Out!

God  is allowing this for a PURPOSE!  To teach those who would govern with him in the Kingdom: Absolute loyalty to HIM ALONE: No matter what anyone else does!  He does NOT want another rebellion with someone going astray and leading others; he want us all to be totally loyal to HIM, so that if by chance anyone does go astray: NO ONE WILL FOLLOW THEM ASTRAY!

To teach us this very important lesson he allows this to happen over and over through each new generation!  This is the VITAL lesson of complete loyalty to God above loyalty to anyone or anything else!

(i.e. Apostle Malm is ignorant about the New Covenant.  It cannot be kept by attaching  any of the 613 laws of the Hebrews)

The Apostle is setting his acolytes up for the formation of his new splinter cult starting sometime around the Feast this year:

BE SURE
I have repeatedly said that people should stay where they are until the fruits of what is going on mature.  Recently I stepped back from that as some fruits are now coming clear and I realize that this is very much a matter of personal understanding and decision.
Let me say this.  At this time the fruits have not yet reached their full maturity.  Things that are obvious to some may be obscure to others.  This is a transitional situation.  I expect that in the near future  [within a year and most likely around or soon after the fall Feast]  much will work out.  At that time the faithful will come out of these various groups and come together into a new, much more godly association.

The End is Here!  God is sifting the COG to weed out the rebellious heinous sinners from it's midst.  Only the true followers of the Apostle will understand.  It's time to scare the sheeple once again!

Brethren, God is sifting his people and the “Hour of  Trial” is at the door for Laodicea and the whole world.
PREPARE YOURSELVES!   ARM YOURSELVES WITH THE SWORD OF TRUTH!   FORTIFY YOURSELVES IN OUR HIGH TOWER OF STRENGTH!
Use the Sabbath and all the other time available to fight the good fight against the evils that are already evident; and to prepare for what lies ahead!

God Has Personally Given Malm An "Obligation" To Warn The COG's

Apostle Malm is attempting to deepen his standing with COG folk now by proclaiming he has a personal 'obligation from God'.  He is now the COG's new "Watchman' who is crying aloud and lamenting the grievous sins of COG members.

It is not going to be long now till this guy officially starts his own splinter group.  He has  previously told people that he does not have enough money to hold a Feast site and in the meantime they are to attend with their regular fellowship of choice. It will not be long till he starts sending out tapes, then there will be church meeting someplace, money will start flowing in and he will be legitimized.

This guy is not the innocent COG member he appears to be.  There is something deeper going on in his mind and it is NOT good!

Thank you for your concern. I have an obligation from God [as do all godly persons] to: Is 58:1 “Cry aloud, spare not, lift up thy voice like a trumpet, and shew my people their transgression, and the house of Jacob [Israel and spiritual Israel] their sins.” and again Ez 33:6 “But if the watchman see the sword come, and blow not the trumpet, and the people be not warned; if the sword come, and take any person from among them, he is taken away in his iniquity; but his blood will I require at the watchman’s hand.” Someone MUST speak up! I lament that so few are! If more people cried out and exposed sin, there would be less of it around! James

Endtime Apostle Makes Another Prediction

Apostle Malm is on a roll again today. Did you know that the Abomination of Desolation will be set up this September 28th?  Apostle Malm thinks so.  Well, maybe he does or maybe he doesn't. In the grand style of all Armstrongite false prophets, he qualifies his statement with a "This IS NOT a prediction; it is merely an example."

The resurrection will take place late on the sixth day of Unleavened Bread: The proof of this will be clear if the abomination is set up 1,290 days Dan 12, counting back from a future sixth day of unleavened Bread!

For example: if the sixth day of Unleavened Bread were to be counted back from 2015; and if my count is accurate; and if the sixth day [April 10, 2015]  is accurate with an accurate calculation of the new moon: Then the abomination would be set up on 28 Sep of this year.  If the new moon calculation or my count is not correct then the abomination shouid be set up within a few days of 28 Sep.

Realizing he is a liar he had to add the following qualifier concerning his prediction:

This IS NOT a prediction; it is merely an example. ALL the biblical signs must be present before the tribulation begins!  We do know that the year is now imminent, but we do not know for sure the precise year.

But lest ye think that Apostle Malm is the only fool out there making such predictions check out this Armstrongite moron:  The Abomination That Makes Desolate

This nut job predicted that the abomination of desolation would be happening in the Ambassador Auditorium (God's True House on earth) on August 31, 2010.  Oops, missed THAT one dude!
