The latest Royal Vision is out and features on its front cover the new play toy that Philadelphia Church of God bought for their taskmaster, Gerald Flurry. PCG has photographed the jet out to be a subliminally seductive in order to bamboozle members at is magnificence and importance.
Things are not as rosy as PCG initially conned the members into believing. This is what they initially heard:
In February 2017, Mr. Flurry wrote a co-worker letter introducing an “aircraft fund” and soliciting pledges from those who were able to contribute to it.“We were overwhelmed by the enthusiasm of the brethren for this fund,” Mr. Locher said. “Not only did the members and even the youth respond, but we had a stron- ger-than-expected level of support from co-workers. To date, actual donations have kept up with the pledged amount, making it easier for us to take on this additional expense.”
Now move forward to 2018 and it is a different story:
PCG members have not been sending as much money as the initially did and Andrew Lochner wants them to "sacrifice and respond to His direction," after they pray about how they can send in more money. Gerald's play toy is creating a heavy burden for the PCG and thus needs members to step up to the plate and give more money, and for their god to inspire more coworkers to be added to the rolls.
The PCG had to reexamine their finances and their hoped-for new directions for their work.
About midway through 2017, Pastor General Gerald Flurry took a more aggressive approach to God’s finances to make sure we are putting to use the money God has provided to do the Work. That act of faith caused us to more closely monitor expenses, measure our results from various advertising and promotional campaigns, and to really work more efficiently to accomplish more with the money we spend.
There are plans in the works to expand our efforts to reach the cities of Judah (Isaiah 40). That will require additional resources, but God will provide. His response in 2017 has been very inspiring. God wants us to be active and aggressive. He wants us to continue to sacrifice and respond to His direction as we finish this Work.
Its 3 million.

Someone said (I guess this Andrew Lochner), "God wants us to be active and aggressive. He wants us to continue to sacrifice and respond to His direction as we finish this Work".
ReplyDeleteMY COMMENT - Please quote Bible chapter and verse where it says, "God wants us to be active and aggressive. He wants us to continue to sacrifice and respond to His direction as we finish this Work".
Clowns, stop putting words in God's mouth.

How can PCG member continue to fund the endless stream of pet projects by these people? They are forced to tithe unbiblical amounts and then conduct one fundraising scheme after another. Just how many yard sales and bake sales can they have?
ReplyDeleteI would urge people to send their tithes & donations to charities that provide open accounting practices and have good reputations such as Humane Society, Salvation Army, ASPCA etc. Flurry, "That False Prophet" has already proved himself false and unworthy. Wasting funds on a jet or Irish Dance competitions or some useless rock that he ties to HWA and then hounding members for donations. Maybe he and his bastard ministers should get a real job and actually earn their income for once in their lives instead of causing irreparable damage to the families and children forced to grow up in the PCOG.
ReplyDeleteyeah, the executives of those charities that you mentioned need to raise their own economic profiles...
DeleteWHAT THE LETTERS " PCG" REALLY STAND FOR...

What a surprise! Did anyone else see this coming? LOL!

ReplyDeleteIT COSTS $14,000 JUST TO FILL A GULFSTREAM WITH KEROSENE!
THAT'S TEN TIMES THE PRICE OF 1ST CLASS AIRLINE TICKET TO UK!
ReplyDeleteFrankly, all the old sex maniacs, sex perverts, and predators in the PCG NEED something to get their minds off their own selfish and immoral lusts. Unless they are kept very busy, all they ever think about is more selfish and immoral sex. The diminutive false prophet should spend even more money on even more toys for himself so his lust-filled followers can keep occupied with something other than their own wild and selfish sex lives. Flurry making his filthy old followers think about how they will pay for his new toys, rather than let them think about only sex all the time, is probably the only even remotely good thing that little Gerald will ever do.
Just heard that the PCG had to temporarily shut down their websites since one of their writers, Kieren Underwood, posted a letter condemning their actions online. He has since left the church and a copy of the letter is said to be sent to the exit network. Would love to see what it's about.
ReplyDeleteI attended WCG and then PCG many years ago. I didn't see or hear of sexual immorality tolerated in the PCG. There are problems in any corner of society, but was there truly widespread sexual impropriety or is it just another unfounded rumor?

ReplyDeleteMr Flurry, I just fuelled your airplane: that will be $14,000 please.
"Not a problem, just stick it on the tab of my TITHESLAVES"
what amazes me is how these larger cogs continually fail to understand, or better yet, fail to accept that the best way to preach the gospel is not jetting around the world on the backs of poor lay people, but taking care of those same lay people, developing a reputation for the same, AND preaching justice for the poor!
ReplyDeletethis will boost their popularity and legitimatize their message...

Apparently, G. Flurry wrote a new article about the stone of destiny where he writes that God gave spiritual Israel aka PCOG a more pure stone of destiny aka HWA prayer rock and that will make completing the work and going to the place of safety much more practical than what they thought before.
ReplyDeleteThe followers of Gerald Flurry would be well advised to seek out second opinions on everything the man says. You’d hope that there would be at least one small crack developing in the wall of their programming.

Hey 10:50 who posted on januray 19 did Kieren Underwood really do that? I met him and all the family many moons ago. His father has never joined the church but his mother and her brothers all have. He from what i remember was an inquisitive yound lad so I could see him questioning all these things.

Yes there was! They never tell the truth, and deliberately lie about what is going on. They quickly become very frustrated and angry if someone does not go along with whatever old sex pervert some local goon decides to fix them up with. Old sex perverts get to stay while their intended victims get kicked out. Old sex perverts never repent, they just go to the PCG to pretend that they are trying to help younger people.
I suppose that is what can be expected from a group led by a drunken leader who came up with a new commission of causing division among the COG people and breaking up their families.
Yes Keiren Underwood has been disfellowshipped.
