Exposing the underbelly of Armstrongism in all of its wacky glory! Nothing you read here is made up. What you read here is the up to date face of Herbert W Armstrong's legacy. It's the gritty and dirty behind the scenes look at Armstrongism as you have never seen it before!
With all the new crazy self-appointed Chief Overseers, Apostles, Prophets, Pharisees, legalists, and outright liars leading various Churches of God today, it is important to hold these agents of deception accountable.

Unbridled Joy
That feeling you get when you finally step away from Armstrongism
The peasants can walk away relatively unscathed but the higher up you go the more entangled you get. The more difficult it becomes when the church is also the main income stream. How many of the Ministry linger on and on because of income.
The first step is to free your mind. Start by reading a book about cults, Steven Hassan’s ‘Combating Cult Mind Control’ for instance. Just try it. If anything you might learn something, even if you decide to stay in your true church after reading it.
After anger and frustration and disbelief building over many months a book called Field Guide to The Wild World of Religion by Pamela S Dewey set me free. Once it was confirmed to me that Pack is only one of many, many self called Apostles, I dug deeper. And the deeper I dug the clearer the truth became of his clever building of a very profitable business abusing man's desire for God. We now understand that Pack can only deceive and manipulate people in his search for riches and power, because he himself is godless. The proof he has no belief in our God? He has no fear that one day he will be held to account for his abuse of our Maker.
Just do it! There is such joy in the freedom of control one experiences. Freedom from a Godless manipulator and a Liar of the first degree and what we now treasure most, freedom to worship, thank and draw close to our Lord and Master who died for us that we might be saved according to the will of our Father.
Queens song 'I want to break free' comes to mind.
