Stupid Things Philadelphia Church of God Says and Believes


PCG brags that they took money from U.S. Government on exact same day Egypt gave Israel their spoils when expelling them from Egypt several millennia ago.


From Exit and Support

[Begin sermonette by Andrew Locher] (emp. by ESN)
God measures our faith. Rev 3:8. I know your works… He knows our faith. He only opens doors for only for those who don’t deny His authority in their lives. Js 2:18. We demonstrate our faith by our works thru our actions. We give God a sacrifice–an offering.
Ex 12:31-36 (Modern day miracle for God’s Work.) Promises for those who allow God to fight their battles for them. The more perfectly we allow God to fight for us; the more we trust Him in faith, the greater the miracles we can expect.
…Our income is pretty close to what we had last year, it is down just a little bit, and we are anticipating the likelihood of a loss of productive work from members, prospective, co-workers, donors, surely there will be some that will be affected by the coronavirus lockdown and that will likely lead to a decrease in income. …
I heard that some members were adversely affected. But nonetheless, there is going to be some impact to God’s Work. There is going to be a financial pressure or a need present… So how do Philadelphians respond? …we look to God to fight for us, we step out in faith, knowing God that will respond and He has responded.
Recent events: Sat., March 21, the CARES Act passes Congress and President Trump signs it into law. …PPP would provide a loan to small businesses. We are a non-profit in the eyes of the govt. We meet all the gov’t criteria. April 6 our application is finalized. Told not to expect too much. Reads: Ex 12:36. Sometime on April 8 the gov’t approved a 1.1 million loan for the PCG. It was the exact same day Egypt was spoiled and they gave to the Hebrew people [that] we received the loan from the govt.
On April 9, 1st day of Un. Bread we were notified the money would be in our bank as soon as we signed a few loan documents. April 10 the money was immediately deposited and we started spending it that day.
(Talks about how PCG has been faithful in little things) ..and we continue to obey the law of God, faithful in our tithes and our offerings, have obeyed the coronavirus restrictions, we have been faithful to our duties to warn this world. We have had a tremendous respond in the last month to the Work of God. We do have a job to do and it does require resources to do that job. God commands us to give an offering and He tells us to be generous and He tells us to be faithful to the directions, to doing it His way. And so we will do that today knowing God has already supplemented that offering with 1.1 million dollars, an offering from the federal gov’t. That 1.1 million dollars will not have to be paid back if we follow their rules, which we will. …
Explosive opportunity before God’s Work. God has provided the treasure and our part beyond giving an offering, our job is to walk by faith, to show our faith by our works. (Talks about Ezra and Nehemiah trusting God and He provided treasure.) If you look back at these miracles… what lies ahead? How absolutely exciting and faith-building to be part of God’s miraculous Work. …
God proves to us that if we trust Him in faith He will open doors, to do things for us that we simply can’t do for ourselves. … Please, please don’t let down on your financial offerings, or your obedience to God’s financial laws. … opportunity that lies just ahead of us, we will use this 1.1 million dollars–and perhaps even more. So step out in faith, do your part, show your faith by your works, and give generously to God’s Work, and He will bless us like we can’t even imagine. [end of sermonette by Andrew Locher]

This is awfully revealing.

If you truly believed that your church was God's one true instrument in this present age, or if you even believed that your church was the very best from among several acceptable options, you would absolutely look for every avenue through which to get funds to keep your mission alive and growing.

PCOG may be a nutty cult, but it seems to be led by many true believers. Leaders of the other ACOGs know that their groups are not much more than tithe farms for aging ministers, trying to remain respectable in the eyes of the world, so they would be embarrassed to seek the funds PCOG sought.

It is doubtful that the Jewish establisment (who are the real YHWH who made up the lies in the OT) destroyed Egypt. But the fact that they took credit for it shows how much they hate and envy gentile civilizations and how much they would like to destroy them.

PCG is led by a pack of liars. If they are true believers, their faith is weak. People with weak faith justify and rationalize compromises and lies and inconsistencies.

The things they've said and done over the years have most certainly cursed their ministry. Sooner or later, some of that, according to the laws of probability, absolutely must kick in. I believe there is most likely a perfect storm on the horizon for PCG. It's not going to end well for them, or certain others.

PCG articles frequently condemn the country for its government debt and reckless spending. But they then accept a government handout. How do they justify this apparent hypocrisy?

The previous 2 posts I feel are spot on. I have a bad feeling Flurry & the PCG have sowed the wind and will reap the whirlwind. Hopefully the people who have had to grow up in the PCG can overcome their trauma. It took me several years to come to grips with growing up in Worldwide.

But the irony is elaborate liars are all over this blog too. With their elaborate lies typing their long lying comments,weaving elaborate lies.
Liars can be found behind the pulpit and on this blog.

It seems to be the present day culture.

They read Ezra, and somehow their takeaway is that interracial marriages need to be broken up today in our time. Imagine, such a couple comes to the knowledge of Flurryism, and is made to separate because of race, when both members of the couple desire to be baptized into PCG. Ezra separated the couples so that the mates' pagan religions wouldn't lead the nation astray necessitating another captivity, not because of skin pigmentation.

Why I'm surprised that the PCG hasn't started a 12 step program for these women called Afroholics Anonymous!

Foreskin pigmentational segregation.
