COG7 Day, Killing Pigs in the Tribulation and UCG Crisis

The Flickering Candle blog (Shining Light) is INCREDULOUS!  Let me repeat that again, INCREDULOUS!

They write:
According to The Bible Advocate, the COG 7th Day is now permitting work on Sabbath as long as it does not interfere with attendance at Sabbath services. How long will it take before Sabbath services are scheduled around members employment schedules?  For explanations and links concerning this departure into the foggy realm of situation ethics and the abandonment of the Word of God; read on!



Those demonic imbeciles!  How dare they say a person could work on Saturday!  Heretics!  Apostates! Losers!

Oh wait!  These are the same folk that the Armstrongites have always spit and snarled at as the 'Sardis era"  those lukewarm pantywaists.  So now they are all concerned about COG7th Day????????????

The various Armstrongite splinter cults are running scared  these days.  More and more people are waking up to the fact that Armstrongism and it's myriad of biblical interpretations are morally and intellectually bankrupt.  Their control over the membership is slipping away.  That's why you see them all screeching about GOVERNMENT in all their articles and writings.  "Submit" "You are under authority!"

Then the absurdities on the Flickering Candle get even crazier!

In Ottawa in 1976 I attended a meeting of the WCG Spokesman Club where the question was asked: if you were in the tribulation and you and your family were starving; and a pig ran into your house: would it be alright to kill it and eat it?
I was shocked to hear nearly all the men, including the minister John Adams say, YES.  The carnal reasoning’s and justifications were eye opening.
Their argument went like this.
  1. God is a God of love; he would not want you to starve.
  2. The law of the unclean is only physical and not really important
 These people did not even address the fact that they would be in the tribulation for a reason; that reason would be lukewarmness and a lack of zeal for God’s commandments, Rev 3.



Given that kind of sick logic theses same idiots would have turned in Jews that might have been hidden in their homes during WWII.  You can be guaranteed these Armstrongites would have turned in the Jews when the Germans came knocking at their doors.  In their warped thinking it is better to kill a Jew than to to tell a lie that will save a life.

They then go on to blame Satan for the pig being sent to feed your family.  They claim God would NEVER send a filthy, disgusting, unclean swine to save your family from death.  Only Satan would do such a thing to save your family.  Talk about IDIOTS!

If God wanted to give you food he would give you something that he had declared to be lawful!  Something not lawful would NOT be coming from God: Since this “food” would NOT be lawful; it would NOT be from God; and would be a TEST to see if we had learned our lesson yet.

All this talk about piggies, dying families, and working to feed your family on the 'sabbath', is all leading up to the current UCG Crisis:

United is about to rule on the matter of a little work on Sabbath compromising with God’s law to make life easier for the brethren.  The Church of God 7th Day is already doing so!  Please read page seven of the latest Bible Advocate. To enlarge click the text.  These new changes are being  justified because of economic distress. When one’s love for God has cooled; an excuse to turn away can always be found!  If not the economy, something else will be found!

Then they resort to the typical fear mongering of all Armstrongite letters writers.

Will you trade it for a mouthful of filth; or a few dollars worth of employment? (for eternal life?)

Grumpy people!
