I don't think this is a splinter group of the old WCG, but just a group that took WCG's name and incorporated into theirs.
Nor do I think they realize how appropriate their web page banner is in it's description of Armstrongism. Though HWA's vision was grand, it is quit obvious now that facts NEVER mattered! Though Dave Pack's and Gerald Flurry's vision may be big, facts have never mattered.
Oh wait, that seems to be what's wrong with most of Christianity! Facts never matter. Fluff, literalism, speculation, false prophecies, bigotry, homophobia, racism, stupid apostles and aberrant doctrines do.
It sure sounds like a happening group! One Accord Worldwide Church of God, Inc.
"Apostle Wesley is a SPIRITUAL PARAMEDIC that helps resuscitate them back to life by providing a healing and delivering WORD of GOD.
"In January 2012, Friendship Worldwide Fellowship Ministries merged with One Accord Holiness Church; thus creating One Accord Worldwide Church of God, Inc., where the Presiding Bishop is Dr. John D. Wesley and Apostle serves as the Diocesan."

No affiliation -- they merged two groups that had "Friendship" and "Worldwide in their respective names. Just a coincidence.
However, Bishop Wesley's mother certainly has a way with HATS.
They have an apostle and that's a good start.
They should have taken the name, One Accord Fellowship, for the obvious acronym when they merged... or maybe the GCI should have taken it.
Oh my...I thought the poster was you being cheeky. It actually says that....
speechless....
"If The Vision is Big Enough, Then Facts Don't Matter!"
MY COMMENT - At least they are being more honest than HWA, Flurry or the Packatolla.
The corollary which applies to HWA is, "If you want to dine with the classes, you must lie to the masses".
My mother, emersed in Armstrongism, made a startling comment to me in the context of one of many disagreements we had regarding WCG/HWA several years before she died. She stated about HWA, "Tell a big enough lie".
Although I will now never know, I look back on my mother's comment and wonder if this was her way of acknowledging to me finally after all these years of family arguments that HWA/WCG were frauds and she was bamboozled like everyone else in WCG.
By the way, I find it ironic given the unique role of "Germany in prophecy" in WCG teachings that it was a Nazi Germany tactic to tell a big enough lie that no one would even question the legitamacy of the statement or premise.
