The following are quotes from the "Philadelphia Trumpet", the mouthpiece of Flurryism
1. As a Philadelphia church member you must realize that you need to be led by the ministry. Christ has not allowed for independent Christians doing their own work. All of us must come under authority!
2. The Laodiceans don't have revelations from God while God has given abundant revelations to the Philadelphia Church of God.
3. From the time God raised up the PCGin the Laodicean era, we have fully supported God's end time Elijah. All of the Laodicean churches reject Mr. Armstrong.
1. As a Philadelpha church member you must realize that the ministry is led by Satan the Devil. Christ has not been allowed into the PCG. All of the members of the PCG must come under the authority of the demons.
ReplyDelete2. The Philadelphia Church of God will never have any revelations from God as long as Flurry blasphemes, claiming to be Jesus Christ in the Flesh and lying about being an apostle. PCG hasn't even achieved the status of being Laodoceans and God is not going to reveal anything to those who take his name in vain.
3. From the time that Satan raised up the PCG, there has not been one shred of love. The only thing there is, is an excruciating intolerable idolatry to fulfil the desires of a money grubbing, power seeking sociopath bent on controlling and manipulating people: He lies to you and then he takes your money. There is no such thing as an end time Elijah the way the PCG thinks of it. However, the PCG is sort of like what that pervert Herbert Armstrong set up, except the PCG isn't preaching the same gospel and have changed most of the doctrines in subtle but significant ways.
If you are in the PCG, you are so screwed.
Hmmm....
ReplyDelete1) You answer to us, not to Jesus the Christ. We don't think He cares to have a direct personal relationship to you.
2) We have revelations and they don't because we say so. This is our proof that we have meaning and value
3) Rejecting HWA is a more serious defect than rejecting Jesus the Christ
This kind of stuff is what had me nearly in a nervous breakdown before everything hit the fan in the 90's. This same thought policing was in practice in classic WWCG.
When I saw that picture, the first thing I thought of was the egrets turning into planes to carry the faithful to the Petra, with Tattoo pointing and yelling, "THE PLANES!, THE PLANES!"
ReplyDeleteOf course, HWA's seat on the plane would be upholstered in fine Corinthian leather!
(And to continue the Fantasy, the Stone of Scone would be in the overhead compartment above HWA's seat, and when Herbie asks the stewardess for "just desserts", a little enturbulation causes it to fall and bonk him on the head.)
How would you like to live your life only to find out that all this PCG, WCG, COG, GCI,RCG,LCG, and XYZ is all baloney. None of it is true and leads nowhere?

ReplyDeleteWrong!!!
Wrong, totally wrong.
It all leads to misery, poverty, insanity and slavery.
And how could you leave out UCG?!

ReplyDeleteI did live my life only to find out it was all baloney. I hope I did not find out too late. I am glad my children found out while they were still young enough to forge a future sans Armstrongism.
Douglas, you pretty much nailed all three points there.
ReplyDeleteRe: "Life With Gerald Flurry"
ReplyDeleteThat should correctly read, "Death With Gerald Flurry." There is a way that seems right to some, but....
Gerald talks about God to try to fool former WCG people into thinking that God is behind his Philadelphia cult. The plain truth is simply that the only god behind the PCG is Satan! This is no exaggeration.
Gerald also likes to use Herbert W. Armstrong's name and photograph to fool former WCG people into thinking that Gerald and his PCG are teaching and practicing the same things that HWA and his WCG once taught. This is totally false. The plain truth is that over the years Gerald has managed to change, mangle, warp, and pervert virtually everything that HWA actually taught and stood for.
People who hate God and HWA like to pretend that Gerald's PCG is an example of following God and HWA, because they know that the utter depravity taught and practiced by the PCG in the name of God and HWA will make both God and HWA look bad.
The plain truth is simply that it is Satan and his servant Gerald who are bad.
Gerald Flurry is a warlock.
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately, his Hogwart is more like Hogwash.
That was an easy test.
ReplyDelete1. False
2. False
3. False
100%
It should be noted that the original "Fantasy Island" was conceptualized by its creators to be sort of a hell / purgatory with Mr. Rourke playing the Devil, with the people learning their lesson and being redeemed by the experience. A newer brief incarnation of the series made that much more explicit.
ReplyDeleteHow then, so very appropriate to picture "Life with Gerald Flurry" as the original "Fantasy Island" with Gerald Flurry being the Devil and people coming out of the PCG being redeemed after suffering for their lack of humanity.
"Gerald also likes to use Herbert W. Armstrong's name and photograph to fool former WCG people into thinking that Gerald and his PCG are teaching and practicing the same things that HWA and his WCG once taught."
ReplyDeleteGeraldine, as I affectionately call him has; 1) No communication skills 2) No Marketing Skills. 3) NO photogenic appeal 4) No Biblical understanding.
He therefore believes that by using Herb as a corporate logo that former followers of Armstrogism will flock to him.
He just doesn't get it. Herb is dead, rotten, irrelevant, was never relevant, and certainly never the household brand that Geralden believes he was...he just wasn't.
In fact most of the former WWCG ministry avoid mentioning Herb as to avoid damaging their own "Brand." Mentioning Herb is toxic and most know it , except by those doomed to nose dive at mach one into the hard pan.
Thank God that these Ambassador trained idiots never got Marketing 101. Only Herb did and only in a psychopathic way, otherwise the micro-cult might have multiplied beyond the paltry and insignificant 100K.
