Brethren, many think that this coming tribulation is about some angry Satan attacking the righteous people of God. Nothing could be further from the truth.
It is because of the lack of zeal for the law of God and for his Sabbath that we are called to account and will be rejected by Christ and thrown into great tribulation that the spirit may be brought to repentance and saved by the affliction of the flesh.
You elders who do not cry aloud and rebuke sin in the Assemblies, you elders who teach the brethren to sin by saying that Christ will overlook sin: This very Jesus Christ will allow billions of human beings to be destroyed in the tribulation when he could prevent it!
If you elders teach to tolerate sin for organizational unity, or that Jesus is love and will overlook willful unrepented sin; You are leading people who believe and follow you to their damnation! It that really the love you claim it is?
Jesus Christ and the Father are love! because they love us they want us to live eternally with a happy fulfilling lives! To teach that the sin which corrupts that eternal life and brings suffering and death could be tolerated by the love of God is an incredible blasphemy against the love of God. Christ will never allow or overlook any unrepented sin! NEVER!
To teach tolerance for heresy and sin is to mock the Christ who inspired the scriptures.
Like most of the COG's out there today, Malm is looking with glee as his angry pissed off god starts killing humanity. The myth that the COG is going to produce two great witnesses that will hold the world accountable is still being promoted by Malm and others. They want these guys to kill and destroy. If they don't come to kill and destroy then the entire COG belief system falls apart.
Very soon now God will commission HIS two servants to stand up and do HIS will, by delivering the repentance elect to the place prepared; and by preaching the gospel of warning and repentance to the whole world. These two will be given great powers like Moses and Elijah to help them fulfill their missions.
Beware all of you grace filled Christians out there. Your filthy lovey-dovey grace is murderous!
They will not be wimpy emotionally immature love love folks. They will love as God loves; by condemning sin and correcting the unrepentant sinful.
When these two pronounce some affliction and thousands die; will you condemn them and reject them? or will you stand in awe of the power of God manifested in them? and obey their instructions to KEEP all the teachings, commandments and instructions of Jesus Christ? Will you remember the miracles that Moses and Elijah did by God’s power, and rejoice that your deliverance and inheritance is nigh?
Will you be one of the ones standing there with shouts of glee as humanity fry's around you? When little children are sent to the German concentration camp ovens will you shout with glee? Malm apparently will. His god demands it.
We have been made flesh so that we might suffer sin in the flesh and learn to hate sin as much as Jesus Christ hates and abhors sin! It is sin that separates us from our Lord and our Father in heaven.Apostle Malm hates the word love with a passion. Obviously the poor guy has never really experienced it in his life or from his god. Bad relationships and a vengeful god makes most COG members miserable sour-pusses and apostle Malm is a prime example.
To be at ONE with Christ and the Father; we must hate the thing that separates us from them; we must love what they love and hate what they hate.
Anyone who teaches to tolerate differences of doctrine [heresy] from scripture, or to overlook and leave sin unrebuked; is of their father the devil, and is NOT; ONE with Christ and the Father of the elect.
Beware the emotional love love trap into a false Christ and false religion as warned of by Jude. Jesus Christ is going to bring this world to its knees before him.

Is it just me or does anyone else get tired of these fools spending every word they speak on telling everyone how Deities think and what they feel? When someone declares they know what "Jesus Christ" wants, is thinking, doing or unhappy with, it gets very old.
I guess the default question in such cases is "And you KNOW this?"
Well , if the day comes that Malm's little one man show grows and becomes an organization, I have little doubt that his "HQ" would make Buchenwald or Dachau look like a vacation.
Im waiting for a COG that treats its employees and members alike , the way GOOGLE does theirs...
***If an employee's bangs are getting in the way during a furious coding session, he or she can schedule an on-site haircut free of charge.
***To work off all those calories, employees can head over to a gym filled with equipment. For the aquatically-inclined, Google also provides swim-in-place swimming pools. These pools are narrow and not very long. Electric water pumps provide a strong current that flows in one direction. Employees swim against the current, staying in place within these small pools. Lifeguards are on duty to keep employees safe.
***Employees can play against each other in a quick game of ping pong, billiards or foosball -- you can find game tables in several of the buildings on campus. There are also video games for employees who prefer to let their thumbs do all the work.
***If an employee spills some of that fancy juice on his or her clothes, all is not lost. Google has laundry facilities available to employees on site. The company even offers dry cleaning services. It's not unusual for Google employees to bring clothes in over the weekend to do laundry at the Googleplex.
***Google's healthcare plan includes on-site medical staff. If an employee suffers an injury or feels ill while at work, he or she can make an appointment with a doctor at the Googleplex.
***Even with all the benefits and perks at the Googleplex, work can become stressful. Fortunately for Google employees, they can take advantage of a subsidized massage program. For a small fee, the employee can receive a massage from a licensed therapist in a private room. In fact, Google's massage rooms and bathrooms are some of the only areas in the Googleplex that have opaque walls.
***Another famous benefit of working at Google is the 20 percent time program. Google allows its employees to use up to 20 percent of their work week at Google to pursue special projects. That means for every standard work week, employees can take a full day to work on a project unrelated to their normal workload. Google claims that many of their products in Google Labs started out as pet projects in the 20 percent time program.
I WANT THE GOOGLE COG! LOL! Malm can keep his ascetic jack boots church!

Malm notes: "They will not be wimpy emotionally immature love love folks. They will love as God loves; by condemning sin and correcting the unrepentant sinful"
Old Testament Bible love is destroying lives, families and nations. Take the condemning , correcting and stern gods and religions out of the news and world peace would break out.
Malm proves everytime he opens his mouth he's never read the New Testament and would find nicey nicey Jesus (A RCM phrase) to be unfathomable.
Going to his FOT would be like a trip to the dentist in the 1930's.
I suspect Malm had a very stern upbringing
The GOOGLE COG already exists... if your surname is Meredith or Flurry or Weinland or Hulme. Thousands of disenchanted members know all too well that the royal families (sometimes even including their boozing, drug-abusing, smoking, sexually promiscuous unconverted kids) get the best cars, the best vacations, the best salaries and the ability to fund their pet projects so that even in an economic downturn they are able to live large while the ordinary members go deeper into debt.
Joe Moeller can have the GOOGLE COG... but he will need to declare himself the Apostle/Prophet/Presiding Googler first!
Anon, you are right about the ministers kids getting the best of everything. Meredith's kids lived in the lap of luxury when I came to Pasadena. They were just as promiscuous as any other "worldly" student.
Drugs were rampant with the kids of COG ministers. Some of the biggest drug dealers in Pasadena were Imperial students - kids of ministers or department heads.
When the aging leaders of the various COG promote these jerks to leadership positions they forget that the members know the crap that they all did and will not follow them. Expect more church divisions as Meredith and Flurry kick the bucket. The same goes for UCG and COGWA. We know the things you did when you were in Pasadena and certainly will NOT be following you or your kids!
"I suspect Malm had a very stern upbringing."
I was actually thinking that maybe he was raised in an orphanage. Here he is saying that we're supposed to love what god loves and hate what god hates, or else we're due for a whipping. But honestly, this stern parental figure Christ that Malm is always so uptight about is totally absent, in my experience, so how is anyone to really understand exactly what it is that god loves and what he hates? And as soon as he comes back, he's not exactly going to be in a good mood, so maybe not the best sampling of Jesus to emulate right off the bat. This god that Malm preaches is so demanding, but yet so restrictive with any real information about what he's really like, so it's impossible to quite get a bead on how to imitate the guy in the first place. Just within the COGs, there are obviously a minimum of 700 different incompatible conceptions of what it means to "imitate Jesus," one for each splinter. And the patriarch of each one of those 700 splinters thinks his Jesus is the Real Jesus and everyone in the other 699 splinters is going to fry and it will be worse for them than for the ignorant souls out in "the world" who, not coincidentally, are also going to fry. And this would be because they failed to solve the centuries old puzzle correctly: what was Jesus really like? They solved it, just incorrectly, which is the unpardonable sin, I guess. So you better think twice before trying to solve that puzzle in the first place. You're better off not trying at all than trying and getting it wrong. But you won't know you got it wrong until it's too late, so by then you're fucked. Absentee Jesus will not be understanding about this. He will always attribute mistakes to willful intent to play games with him, and trick him into giving his grace away for cheap. Not so fast. Malm Jesus is the grace nazi. No grace for you!
It sounds to me like Malm had at least one living parent, but that they managed to dump him in an orphanage anyway. They told him it was all his fault they had to abandon him in the orphanage. They said they were going to come back if he was good, but as hard as little Jamie tried to be good all the time, they never did come back.
Sad Malm isn't sad. He's ANGRY!
Well, actually he reminds me of my parents, or at least the way my parents were while I and my siblings were being raised in the WCG. Pretty much typical of old school Armstrongism.
There is a scripture which states that we'll be judged by the same standards as we use to judge others. Reality is, Malm is the one who should be worried.

When the aging leaders of the various COG promote these jerks to leadership positions they forget that the members know the crap that they all did and will not follow them.
This is supposed to be one major reason behind LCG's big drop in income. Meredith begs LCG members for more money because times are so hard and the income is down, then the members find out that the irresponsible Meredith kids, whose antics are well known to the membership. are spending and spending, being given more and more responsibilities, taking more and more lavish trips and getting better perks than ever before, all the while treating long-time loyal true-believer members like garbage.
Why doesn't Rod Meredith insist that his kids measure up to the same standards as other ministers and members? My guess is that the Meredith kids are knowingly in on the con, basically blackmailing their father for cushy jobs in exchange for their silence. Rod can't fire them and keep up his con, but that doesn't matter because the whole point of the con is to provide for Rod Meredith's family.
Rod has recently begged LCG members to leave their estates to LCG instead of to their own family members. Does anybody seriously expect that Rod will follow his own advice? Then again, as long as there are Meredith kids on the LCG payroll, a bequest to LCG is a bequest to the Meredith family members. Again, maybe this is one major explanation for LCG's recent drop in income. Members know what at least some of Meredith's spoiled kids are like, and they want no part in encouraging or enabling their unGodly behaviour.
How did LCG Charlotte finish an "office renovation" if they had such a hige drop in income? Read the first paragraph. DIdn't they just cancel TV stations?

Quote: 4/27/13:
"Here in Charlotte, Mr. Meredith has been writing and holding meetings. Plans are proceeding for summer camps and the Feast of Tabernacles. We are in the final stages of office renovations here in Charlotte so everyone is getting back to more normal routines. "
Wow. Reading Malm's article is like a step back in time to the WCG of my youth. This is exactly how I remember it.
Goes to prove the COGs are synagogues of Satan. Jesus only ever wanted to bring peace and love to this world. Only those who are evil want war and will be punished. The rest will be saved. That's the Good News. The only Bad News I can possibly see is that for the COGs and other cults. They are doomed, but they just don't know it yet.
Ho hum. Same old tub of crap that had me all uptight 60 years ago. Nobody's doomed. There is no sky fairy to do the dooming.
We get born. We do what we do as long as we have life and reap the results. Then, we die, and "that's all she wrote." No heaven. No lake of fire (or hell). We'e remembered by a few for a while and a century from now, almost no one will be aware of our brief miserable existence.
How many of you spend any real time thinking about ancestors beyond your grandparents? Some are famous enough to be included in the history books, but they're a very small minority and most people are bored by history anyway, so it gets repeated over and over again.
I agree Allen. Not afraid of imaginary satan. Not afraid of imaginary Judgment Jesus. I'm not pressured or intimidated anymore by these carrots and stick external motivators. These are just the hobgoblins of little minds whose conformity financially benefits the savvy preacher. Malm is not savvy enough to make it pay like HWA. He's just a conformist himself, helplessly doing the bidding of the god-meme infecting his addled brain. My motivations these days are much more internal.
Something these guys don't understand is the human mind does not have an unlimited capacity for things. We can only feel a certain level of pain, and then we go numb. We can only feel so much guilt, and after that we stop caring. We can only feel so much fear, and then we grow a pair. We can only be threatened to a certain threshold, and then we say, "bring it on." So, the only reply I have to Malm's over-the-top shrillness is, "my cup runneth over." My mind has reached its threshold for all these things. You can keep dialing up the volume without end, but I've already gone deaf, so I can't hear you anymore.
I'm not afraid of the real Satan or real Jesus. I suppose that make me more prepared than non-believers.

Thank you...that put in succinct form what it is my mind is doing through all this. Best sermonette I ever heard.
Hmmmm, ACoGs are beginning to sound more and more like Westboro Baptist Church all the time. I wonder when the "God Hates Fags" and the "You Must Obey" placards will be for sale?
All those people in the world pointing and laughing at them are really laughing at God...no, I'm lying, they're laughing at them - and have been - for a loooooong time.
People on here probably didn't realize that when they were in school and forced to observe OT law by their parents - the teachers were snickering behind their hands. Not at the kids, mind you, but at the ignorance of their parents.
Once a person sees the 'light' and gets out of the CoGs, little things like that become an embarrassment. Does anyone remember demanding at the grocers that your 'hot dogs' be made of 100% beef? Yeah, and he still recognizes you when you come into the store too...
This is the same bucket of crap that the various ACOGs (UCG, LCG, PCG, etc) have been preaching til the cows come home.
Happily, there are those who leave these cults now and then.
James Malm wrote: "Beware the emotional love love trap into a false Christ and false religion as warned of by Jude. Jesus Christ is going to bring this world to its knees before him."
Passover was observed not too long ago. What did Jesus command those with Him to do?
"This is my commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you." John 15:12
Love one another! But James, it seems, can only accuse, judge and blame human beings who cannot attain to his own self-righteousness, because James cannot attain to the keeping and zeal of God's law that he is telling everyone to do. That is such a huge burden to place upon people. It isn't all that different from the fear religion that the xcogs strive to place upon human beings.
And James is not Jesus Christ's twin brother!
We wrestle not flesh and blood, but James thinks otherwise and thinks he does God some service, but is he? Really?
Oh, and why would Jesus have to bring this world to its knees before Him?
Satan may already be bringing this world to its knees as Satan "... as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God."
How confident is James Malm that he is worshipping God and not that other god: Satan?
Again, James continues to accuse, blame and judge fellow human beings for the sins and evils.
When will James believe: "He that committeth sin is of the devil..." ? That's I John 3:8
He'd be closer to treating the cause instead of the effect if he were to do that. Accuse, blame and judge that vile, evil, thing that causes sin.
The Apostle Paul, near the end of his ministry, strived to tell those who think like James Malm the following:
"Now then it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me." Romans 7:17
Huh? That sounds weird!
"Now if I do that I would not, it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me." Romans 7:20
Is repetition still one of the best forms of emphasis? Then again, who believes Paul? James Malm doesn't believe Paul.
John
Actually, James Malm would do well if he didn't believe in Paul and wasn't influenced by his baloney.
