1975 In Prophecy: When Herbert Armstrong and the Jehovah's Witnesses Destroyed Church Members Lives

Who remembers this nonsense?

The original article this was based on was written in 1956 and republished year after year, well into the early 1970s. Each time, the prophecies grew more elaborate. 

Then, lo and behold, 1975 came and went, and Herbert backpedaled so fast even GTA couldn’t keep up. 

Who could forget that in 1971, construction began on Herbert’s $11 million monument to himself, even as members were still told that 1975 would be the final year before everything hit the fan?

Shortly after this, the Worldwide Church of God, Herbert, and others faced lawsuits over financial mismanagement. Around the same time, the Jonestown tragedy unfolded, with 918 people taking their own lives or being killed by their cult leaders.

Armstrongites took these events as clear signs that the end was near and Satan was furious.

Meanwhile, during this same period, the Jehovah’s Witnesses were also unraveling after proclaiming 1975 as the end times. Given that Herbert Armstrong borrowed heavily from the JWs, it’s no surprise they faced nearly identical problems.

Check out this video about the Jehovah’s Witnesses and 1975. Just swap WCG for JW, and it’s practically the same story.

Hat-tip to a reader here for this:

Sheldon Monson Claims Many Demons Have Been Cast Out, But...

 

Sheldon Monson's ongoing battle with the spiritual realm continues. He claims that "many demons were cast out, but one blasphemous entity remains." According to him, these demons were not only present at the Texas summer camp but also in the hometown of the young person allegedly possessed.

Thankfully someone with a wise mind made the decision to take the young person to the hospital after the Monday fast and demon-casting-out day. They claim his body is fine, but is still spiritually tormented by a demon.

Can you imagine the torment this young person is enduring because of these ministers? Their life may be forever altered by this disturbing ordeal.

Sadly, some gullible members of the Churches of God are following this saga closely. When Sheldon proclaims full victory, they may view it as a divine sign in these "end times." Will this lead people to leave their current splinter groups and join him?

The entire situation is beginning to seem increasingly suspicious.

From a reader here that found this on Facebook and another source who supplied the letter:

Mr Sheldon Monson human leader in the Church of God of Assembly, has this message for all of us: 

 

I request you pray and fast for teenager B.. (who became demon possessed at camp) and his family. Your prayers and fasting are greatly appreciated. This fiery trial (I Peter 4:12) has been physically and emotionally draining for Pastor..and their children and families.  

 

During the last several days (both at camp and in their hometown) many demons were cast out – yet one blasphemous evil spirit remains. 

 

God has heard the prayers of His people; He has seen their tears and noted their fasting. He said that strong demons come out by prayer and fasting (Matthew 17:21). 

 

The members and the ministers have done what God requires up till now – but we must continue to pray and have faith that God will complete what He has started. He has made it clear that no man has the power to make the demons leave – and that He will be the one to remove them in His time and in His way. 

 

When this is over the glory will go to Him – not any man. 

 

God removes demons and He heals the sick. The ministers are just tools in His hand that do what He has commanded us to do. God is the one with the power to answer our requests. 

 

Sometimes the healing is immediate, sometimes He casts out the demons immediately, and sometimes we must patiently wait. We must not doubt, we must not waiver. Doubt is a faith killer (Matthew 14:28-33).

The Scriptures state "the eyes of the Lord run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to show Himself strong on behalf of those whose heart is loyal to Him... (Il Chronicles 16:9). Do not lose hope but rather continue to pray fervently (James 5:16) and "Wait on the Lord; Be of good courage, and He shall strengthen your heart; Wait, I say, on the Lord" (Psalm 27:14)! 

God loves family! He loves the F___ family. Please pray that their family will receive B____ back home free of all these evil spirits and soon. He was taken to the hospital after the fast and it appears that he is ok physically. This is a spiritual problem that God has the power to resolve. Stay strong in the faith.

RCG's Dave Pack: Unsealing Daniel Since 2015

Marc Cebrian

David C. Pack of The Restored Church of God has been claiming to unseal the books of Daniel and Revelation since 2015. This 23-minute compilation is not comprehensive, but it provides an accurate illustration of the prophetic back-and-forth, finished-not-finished doctrinal rollercoaster members of The Restored Church of God have been subjected to since 2012. According to RCG, unsealing Daniel is a process. Not an event. Due to woefully awful reading comprehension skills, the Pastor General has been misreading Revelation 22:10, "Seal not the sayings of the prophecy of this book," for years. Combined with his belief that he is also featured in Revelation 22, David C. Pack's flawed interpretation is "Unseal the saying of the prophecy of this book." The spirit of error is pervasive in The Restored Church of God. This 23-minute compilation demonstrates this.
