Did You Know Satan Was A Woman and That She Appoints All World and Religious Leaders?



One of Armstrongism's weirdest cult break-offs was The Houe of Yahweh in Texas.  It is lead by Buffalo Bill Hawkins.  Hawkins has been in and out of jail, is a serial adulterer, bigamist and all around con artist who rewrote the Bible to support his deviant beliefs that call for the Nuclear Baby to destroy the world.

Hawkins cult is listed in the "6 Insane Cults (That Would Probably Be a Lot of Fun)"

Unlike popular religions which try to bore us with things like scripture and goodness, the House of Yahweh is all about making sure we know what the fuck is going wrong out there in the world. For instance, did you know Satan is a woman who appoints all political and religious leaders, with the probable exception of Buffalo Bill? Or that by mid-2001 80 percent of the world's population will be killed by a nuclear war and then it won't rain for over 1,000 days? And when Y2K hits, you better make sure you're on the right side of Jesus or you're gonna be so screwed.

Fortunately, Buffalo Bill is a prophet so while those Catholics are caught on the toilet when the Rapture hits, he will have found all of his followers the right mountain top to stand on to make it easier on God to take us all away and we will have all had time to have some snacks and pee before it happens.

While some might argue that, as a prophet, maybe his dates should make sense or maybe he should have known he was about to be arrested for bigamy back in February of 2008, we believe this is probably all just part of the master plan. Look at the video again. There's totally a master plan.




Dennis muses on the boxes we all live in...




“Very few beings really seek knowledge in this world. Mortal or immortal, few really ask. On the contrary, they try to wring from the unknown the answers they have already shaped in their own minds -- justifications, confirmations, forms of consolation without which they can't go on. To really ask is to open the door to the whirlwind. The answer may annihilate the question and the questioner.” 
― Anne Rice,


I have rarely, very rarely,  found  minister or member in any church I have experienced, whether Presbyterian, Baptist or the those in the near countless splinters of the WCG, all that interested in growing in either Grace or Knowledge....especially knowledge.   Everyone wants grace, i.e. forgiveness and understanding when dearly needed.    But most have all the knowledge about life, death and purpose they need, just ask them.  That's what the box of organized religion can do for them.  Get in the box of one's  choosing , stay, pray, pay and obey and life is good.  On the other hand, step outside the box one's organized religion provided for them and it gets real uncomfortable very quickly.  In the box you either keep things to yourself and go along to get along, or you risk just about everything 




In the Churches of God, if you wish to know why there is so much "unusual weather" (it's not really all that unusual really), you ask Bob Thiel who knows it is the hand of God trying to get people to repent.  God uses weather you know, Bob will tell us.  Not always, but sometimes for sure.  Then he supplies the appropriate texts from ancient times when weather was attributed to Baal and other malevolent deities and demons to prove to us that this is all so.  Changes of seasons, hot and cold, low and high pressure along with convection and the dynamics of fronts can't account for the all the misery inflicted on humans when weather gets scary.  Just ask Bob.  It curls my toes when Bob says,  "as I correctly predicted," because we all know he is so desperate to be right and a true prophet of YHVH.  He's not of course and Internet surfing for insights and possibilities does not count as much as visits in the night and voices in the mind from God telling one what to tell the people.  Bob is not going to risk being that kind of prophet.  You'll never hear him say, "Thus said the Lord to me and I pass that on to you..."   He'll just quote the thus saiths from those Biblical prophets and want to give you the impression he and them are one and the same.  A silly game actually...


Ok...Listen up.  God wants me to tell you.....

If you wish to know the future and how it will all play out, one needs to follow the teachings of Ron Weinland , Dave Pack and Gerald Flurry.  These men know.  They have had a direct line to the mind of God for decades.  Their stunning accuracy has been nothing short of miraculous.  The truths and spectacular insights of  "just around the corner", "by 2016" , "not sooner than 2017", and the awesome events of August 31, 2013 from which are still gyrating in our seats over are absolute proof that one need look no further and not expand the size of the box they control in any way to know the "truth."
Ok, I'm just kidding.  These men are not so good at telling their flocks how it all will be.  Pretty terrible actually.  But as Dave Pack says,  "the prophecy is very much still 'on'"   I prefer he say he was wrong but that's not how living in boxes that know it all and have all you need to know contained within work.




Seriously though, in my experience, most people get far more defensive over what they already are sure they know than excited or fascinated by what they may yet come to know if they only stepped outside those boxes.  Why consider evolution and do the hard work of study and thought about the wonder of it all when you can drop back to the story of Adam and Eve, probably coming on the scene a mere 5000 ish years ago.  In my box, that's a myth and while it has meaning, the origin of humans is not the intended meaning nor was it ever the meaning any Hebrew writer gave it.  The myth has taken on a life of it's own and is used to explain everything from how humans arrived on the planet to why we are all guilty of Original Sin no matter how nice we are.   It informs us all we  deserve the fires of hell unless we come to  the Jesus  found in this or that box or the Christ of those like the authoritative sound of that word.   I can see why it is such a threat to see it as intended and not imagined.  For the story to not be literally true has "implications" for other theological concepts.  Few wish to go there and defensiveness goes on high alert. 




I have quoted Huxley a few times who encouraged those who were willing and able to look over the edges of the boxes they now abide in, to sit down before the facts as a little child and let them take you where they will, or one learns nothing, but then I have had to put up with "facts" being not facts at all and unworthy of consideration.    If you step outside your church box you'll get blasted with...

"My ways are not your ways saith the Eternal..."

"There is a way that seems right to a man but the ends there of are death..."

"The wisdom of man is foolishness with God..."

and so on.

These are what you say when you have nothing really left to say.  It's all the Priests ,who actually wrote these texts,  could come up with to bully those who found thinking outside the boxes priests wanted folk to stay in.  It's thought control,  putting the blame for thinking outside the box on the thinker  and using "God" to deliver the message.   No one ever actually heard God say these sentences.


Gee...I wish you hadn't pointed that out.  I worked hard on that.

It's not uncommon to get accused of "trying to destroy people's faith" when one is actually endeavoring to open the mind a bit more to wonderful things.   The Jews of Jesus time were not all that pleased with Jesus , in the story, explaining that one could not successfully keep new wine in old wine skins and there was need for new perspectives.  We know how that worked out for him.  I'm all for faith but not when it has to yield to the facts of a given topic.   The average member of the Church of God, or any fundamentalist and literalistic organization  is not really interested in "the truth."  They are interested in "this truth" as usually presented by one man who thinks he knows just what that truth is.  I am not being judgemental about motives for truth seeking.  It is just that the idea that one finds it all in one small box as defined by a few other humans should give one pause for thought on the topic of the whole truth and nothing but the truth.  Did we not learn anything from the demise of the WCG which was the bastion of truth as the few explained it to us?

Oh I forgot...If you want to know how living under the Old Covenant would be like, just let James Malm lead you.  In my view, his Wonderful World Tomorrow" would be my worst nightmare but that's maybe just me.  EWKing is rather different.  He seems to watch lots of YouTube videos on human origins and cosmology and then weave them into a fantastic tale of how it all fits perfectly together.  He tends to sit down before the facts as a little child, twist 'em up a bit, jumble the Bible in with YouTube and the findings of paleontologists, cosmologists and the Nephilim and Space Invaders , and tell his folk how it all is.   If you need the code unlocked , again you have to refer back to Dave Pack and if you are puzzled, Art Mokarrow can solve that for you. 


Now I totally realize all the "yeah but" going on in the minds of those who read such concepts.  I have never met anyone who believes that what they believe is not the truth.  I suppose that's why we use the term, "my truth."  I never met anyone who attends the wrong church or one that teaches that which is not true.  One would not attend such a church if they really thought it was untrue.  Remember the meme..."So how did you come into the truth?"   Now that truth has been trashed for new truth which has split into a thousand other true truths with endless options as to whom you wish to present it to you.  

Everyone is totally entitled to their plain truths.  They are actually merely present truths but the boxes people allow themselves to look around in vary in size from the very small and compacted to the very large and ever expanding.  I prefer the latter.  Usually when one gets criticised by another it is someone in a small box having it out with someone in a much bigger one.   Sometimes those in the bigger boxes attempt to expand the territory of those in the small ones but that doesn't seem to work well.  Only when the person in the small one realizes just how small the box is will they seek to look over the top and see it's not the only one to live in.   Even people in big boxes are still in a box.  No one lives boxless as far as I can tell and those who think they don't live in a box at all, are often those who live in the small ones.


Believe those who are seeking the truth.  Doubt those who find it.

All truth passes through three stages.  First, it is ridiculed.  Second it is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as being self-evident


...even if your voice shakes....

Reality is our friend












Eric King Says "True" Christians MUST Stay Away From Science



Leave it to Eric King to give us the perfect reason as to why he and others of his ilk have no credibility. According to him, there is no need to worry about science when as humans we are moving in a sea of cosmic energy.

Without science he would not know about atoms, principles of motion, galaxies, vibrational rates and cosmic energy.

As true Christians we have learned to stay away from “science falsely so called.” [1st Timothy 6:20] We understand that everything is in motion. We know that in our physical world nothing is at rest. Everything that we see is made out of atoms. Atoms are little ‘galaxies’ of power with particles spinning and moving. As a matter of fact, we can only see particular objects due to their vibrational rate. God determines how all matter is to be organized and on just what vibrational plane that it is to manifest. As true Christians we understand ourselves to be moving in a sea of atomic energy. God has given us the “human spirit” which is able to record this great experience that we are having.

King goes on to say that "true" Christians rise above natural rhythms and learn to control them.

We also experience in God’s creation the idea of rhythm. There is a manifested measure of motion in the working of all things. We can watch the tide of the ocean come in and out. We can watch the four seasons come and go. We understand this as action and reaction. As true Christians we rise above this law of polarity through what we call MOCA [Mind of Christ Action]. We teach this in the “Science of Christian Thought”. As Christians we can enjoy these laws in nature but can also learn to neutralize their control over us through MOCA (pronounced, mocha).

King also has this which sounds exactly like Scientology.  Is King secretly reading Dianetics?

As begotten children of God we begin to go through personality cleaning and true character development. This is an ongoing process. Today you see people who call themselves Christian but have no real motivation [from Holy Spirit] to grow and change their ways. True relationship takes work!
