Samuel Kitchen is just like David C. Pack. Kitchen is a Bible reader and not a theologian. Armstrongism does not have theologians who actually study the Bible and use critical thinking.
HWA's theology came from a public library where he spent his time for six months instead of looking for a job to support his family. He mooched off of others as he studied out dated books in a public library. Public library's are not great bastions of academia. You need a college library, a seminary library that has more in depth books and study material.
Kitchen wrote this about the great theological knowledge that Herb passed on:
Apparently God was not too enthralled with Ambassador Auditorium or Ambassador College. The church lost them both. Now the college is being torn down. All gone. NONE!
YOU WOULD BE A COMPLETE BIBLE ILLITERATE IF IT WASN'T FOR GOD USING AND CALLING HERBERT W ARMSTRONG! You would have no Ambassador Auditorium, No Ambassador College, NONE!
In a perverse sort of way, Kitchen got this one right. Had I never been exposed to the toxicity of Armstrongism, and the disappointment of 1975, I probably never would have restudied the Bible in search of correct understanding and healing from all the damage. But I certainly don't owe any respect or reverance to the charlatan who caused the damage.
ReplyDeleteThese people with their threats of judgment simply don't understand. Eternal life under HWA would be far worse punishment than eternal death.

And life on this planet would have been generally better off without them. What was your point again?
ReplyDeleteFor the information of this Kitchen, Katsup, and What-have-you, only you are an illiterate for relying solely on the plagiarized works of Armstrong. And where is this Ambassador College and Ambassador Auditorium that you are talking about? God has torn them down to show to you and to the rest of the world that Armstrong is a false preacher and whatever he has built, God has destroyed. The rest of ex-Armstrong adherents who finally open their eyes to the plagiarized falsehoods that Armstrong taught and who truly study the Bible rather than take Armstrong teachings hook-line-and-sinker are the true Bible literates. Yes, I agree with the first comment, eternal life under Armstrong is a far worse punishment than eternal death. This Kitchen is nothing but an illiterate Bible literate pretender.

ReplyDeletea high school drop out, child molester,masturbater, charlatan, alcoholic, thief, fornicator, and the list goes on.
God won't be patient with Samuel Kitchen for long. Worshiping the devil is not what He calls holiness. Repent Samuel!
Not true: I was reading and studying the Bible long before Herbert Armstrong came along -- I was reading and studying it in my preteen years.
ReplyDeleteAnd as part of that study, I remember clearly reading about the Feast of Tabernacles, especially about the sacrifices (I imagined being there, eating the beef).
So no, I was introduced and thoroughly knew the Bible before Herbert Armstrong came along and ruined it with his heresies.
But I was exposed to another psycho at the age of 17 who claimed people lived inside the hollow earth and they flew out of the north pole in their flying saucers.
WHY DON'T YOU PEOPLE BELIEVE IN THE MAN WHO SAID THAT PEOPLE LIVE INSIDE THE HOLLOW EARTH AND FLY OUT OF THE NORTH POLE IN THEIR FLYING SAUCERS!!!!?????!!!
YOU WILL SURELY DIE IN THE LAKE OF FIRE FOR YOUR REBELLION!!!!
There.
I feel better now.
James,
ReplyDeleteIs there a picture of the perfect Jesus at the United Church of God headquarters?
No. The UCG cult decided to have a large picture of a "high school drop out, child molester,masturbater, charlatan, alcoholic, thief, fornicator, and the list goes on", instead.
There's money in that thar Herbie worshiping!
Six months day and night study. Wow! That's the equivalent of about 2/3 of the way through one year in college. HWA is a college dropout! Never even got through the first year! And he thought he was really putting himself out. Well, lots of people study day and night just to make it through school, and they keep going for 4 to 8 years! Poor Herb really thought he was something. Not as many people went to college in those days, maybe that was part of his ego problem.
