COG False Prophet Makes Claim That Tribulation Begins Christmas 2018



Our certified Chief Pharisee, who places the law above mercy and grace, has set a definitive date for the abomination of desolation to be set up and thus start the end times.

Like all of the hundreds and hundreds of Church of God false prophets and outright liars the church has had in its midst for the last 80 some years, the utterances of James Malm will be proven to be wrong once again.  Of course, come October 10th, 2017 and December 24-25, 2018 when absolutely NOTHING will happen, the lying false prophet will claim Jesus Christ has delayed his coming because the church is not ready or that he made a slight "mistake" in his calculations.

  1. Hi James. Why is October 2018 a possible date and not October 2017? I know the dates must line up for Christ returning for a first fruits harvest in the Spring. Just curious as to why next year and not this year?
    1) There does not seem to be enough time to fulfill all the things which must still happen. Even if the wars take place this summer the best part of a year would still be needed to negotiate a final peace deal, ratify it and bring in peacekeeping troops.

    2) Counting back from Pentecost June 6, 2022 to the sixth day of ULB April 22, is a perfect 45 days in 2022; and counting back the full 1335 days from Pentecost June 6, 2022, has the abomination being empowered to do miracles on 10 Oct 2018 with the trib beginning on Dec 24 – 25 2018 with the occupation of Jerusalem. This count fulfills Daniel 12 perfectly. The count for 2021, 1335 days back to 2017 does not fulfill the scriptures. 
    3) In addition, the 40 years of God’s protection (Ezek 4 http://82.221.105.8/~theshini/?p=1777 ) on Judah seems to be coming to an end with the fortieth anniversary of the Egypt Israel peace treaty Oct 1978 to Oct 2018.

    Everything screams the trib begins in Dec 2018, but being a very cautious person I am not willing to call it as firm until the abomination is actually set up doing miracles and the New Federal Europe is coming together, once this man is scheduled to visit the Holy Place and God’s two are revealed we shall know the date of the trib for certain.

  1. I'm certainly not going to print and market any tribulation greeting cards or T-shirts for the ACOGs based on the ideas and calculations of James Malm! If there is an accurate forecast in the future, it is not going to come from the Armstrong movement. As a group, they've cried wolf too many times, and have lost any possible credibility they may have had.

    Only James screams that the tribulation begins in Dec. 2018, and being a very reckless person he is willing to set himself up as the abomination behind the Shining Blight blog and make up nonsense for as long as he lives to waste other people's time for as long as they listen to him.

    Having to listen to the likes of James Malm is one of the punishments that has been meted out to those who joined in his rebellion against HWA.

  4. OMG, absolutely incapable of being embarrassed. The ghost of Harold Camping. Does the temporary thrill outweigh the ignominy to follow? Can we not grasp that Revelation and Daniel were not written to disclose events that would happen in modern America?

  5. The coming of Christ will have to be delayed. I have plans for those days.

    And I will guarantee that those days will be peaceful and full of tranquility.
    It is written!

  6. In the battle of Prophet one-upmanship, notice Almost Arrested Elisha Thiel's latest. Perhaps in an attempt to capture the blessing God gave to HWA while he was molesting Dorothy, Thiel is now telling us (in his May 3 a.m. entry, screen-capture HERE (in case he edits the version now online HERE):

    "I was pubicly anointed by Evangelist Evans Ochieng..."

    God has inspired and blessed THAT? I don't think I see the hand of God in the event or in the report. Not much prophethood to be found there. Score one point for Malm.

  7. Lovin' how James is constantly bumping the tribulation up to a year or two away. He's been doing this since he first hung his shingle out in, what, 2010? But when he first makes his "prophetic" prediction, he says shit like "80%" sure that the tribulation will begin "next year!" And then, next year, of course, again, he says, "next year!" LOL! By the time any of his predictions are set to come true (or not) he's already moved the goalposts. As if that's a good strategy to avoid the embarrassments over the failures that make him a false prophet? Not likely...

  8. Bob Thiel is as big a liar as James Malm is. God is not working with either of them. Both of them are frauds.

  9. I'm always juxtaposing our experiences and discussions here with what my travels uncover in daily life. The other night while at the library, I discovered that one of the interns had misfiled the Rolling Stones' "Havana Moon" concert dvd in the television programs section. It was just there waiting for moi, and I went for it.

    The amazing thing is, who waiting for the tribulation and 2nd coming in '72-75, would ever have envisioned the members of the Stones in their '70s, still rocking out, and in Havana, Cuba of all places? If you had speculated that this might even be possible while fellowshipping with the brethren after a Bible Study, say in 1969, they most likely would have thought you were demon-possessed, Laodicean, crazy, or all of the above! I'm also amazed that some people are still predicting (and believing!) that the end might come in 3-5 years after decades of failed revised math! It doesn't logically compute!

    The thing is, in watching the Stones do their classic songs for over a million Cubanos, having already seen an overview of the slums of Havana, and then seeing happy Cuban faces, and knowing that for a couple of hours Mick, Keith, and the crew entertained them and perhaps gave them (free concert!) at least some temporary relief from their painful lives, I have to contrast that with some people we all know who spent a couple hours each sabbath (for decades) needlessly scaring people about disease, famine, poverty, Germans, gas chambers and meat hooks just to extort non-biblical tithes and micro-manage their lives!

    On balance, although both were admittedly flawed, I believe the Stones have done more for humanity than did Herbert W. Armstrong!
    It's not even close.

  10. Everyone is guessing about the date of the second coming. They do the maths, but there's many debatable assumptions in their starting dates and calendars. I believe it's within the next fifteen years, but that's it.

    I've still watching the dissent JW Watchtower videos on YouTube, and the similarities with Herbs church is striking. They believe, like today's slivers, that God communicates exclusively through the church leadership. This is a blatant lie that gives the leaders enormous power over their members. On Christs death, the veil in the Holy of holies split in two, giving everyone direct access to God. No middlemen ministers or prophets are required. Christ died to give humanity this blessing, yet the ministers pretend otherwise. This is a abomination. It's the same sin of Moses.

  11. Despite HWA's claim, We don't set dates!, history of the Adventist/COG movement is replete with incidents of date-setting. And while end-time speculation is a major draw, I feel it is not only a sideshow, but a sidetrack.
    The COG mantra "We are told to Watch!" is misdirected; it wasn't meant as a command for end-time speculation, but more like Watch out.

    I liked that posting it is correct of course about the members.

    Since I am me I would of course have to add that HWA was the largest sponsor of pop music and therefore after 1962, the Rolling Stones, to the Cubans. (Only to those interested in the Rolling Stones, Cuba, Herbert W. Armstrong and covert CIA operations I would suggest asking Mr Google about "Radio Swan".

    Even Fidel Castro complained at the United Nations about the station commercially financed largely by the World Tomorrow Broadcast enabling Cuban defectors to utter their grievances to their compatriots between the tunes of other Anglo Cultural influences like music.
