COG Aggregator Sites Are Being Used By Satan To "Slither" Their Way Into The One True Church

 


Voldemort is not happy with all of the various aggregator websites that publish old Herbert Armstrong writings and sermons, Ambassador College booklets and films, and the original Worldwide Church of God materials.

Satan is angry, and I mean ANGRY that all of these sites have been exposed by Samuel Kitchen. These sites exist as a deliberate attempt to undermine Samuel's great work and to keep TRUE Christians from joining up with Samuel Kitchen and his one true, restored, holy, apostolic, Worldwide Church of God.

According to Samuel, these sites are slithering their way into getting next to the REAL true church, his church.

I'm working on getting things back on track after the latest attack from rivals and enemies.
There are many "libraries", museums, galleries, websites that showcase the publications of the Worldwide Church of God.
Some have attempted to slither their way right up next to this Church, because they found the people of God were happy givers, and they want to make merchandise of our membership.
So they have abounded online, in the case of search engines in trying to gain the edge on "the market".
While the Worldwide Church of God is currently being oppressed and facing suppression of the true Gospel message, these showcases are very helpful, because they are in the hands of those OUTSIDE of this Church.
So I may use their showcases, and exhibits, in order to provide the opportunity to warn against heresies, false teachings, and against false ministers.
If they want to light the Worldwide Church of God in flames, they should get used to the heat, because they wanted to be close enough to us to deceive people.
I just want to say to those.....thank you. This may be hell, but we call it home! And what belongs to God will not burn, for the spiritual is what endures all flames. But let's see if your rubble can withstand it!

How deluded and narcissistic can Samuel get? He stole material and a name that Grace Communion still owns and pretends it is his. He pretends he has thousands of in-the-closet followers in a church he does not own. He claims people are giving these aggregator sites money that really belongs to him and the one true Worldwide Church of God. 

The Church of God is not being oppressed in any way whatsoever. There is not one COG group today that has been oppressed. There is not one Church of God leader who can say they have been persecuted, except maybe Ron Weinland who actually went to prison for being a criminal, but his "work" never stopped as other people carried on that so-called  "work".

No COG group today is persecuted, not even Bob Thiel. They all park their narcissistic privileged white butts on their comfortable sofas in their comfortable homes after enjoying a nice meal. That is not being oppressed or persecuted.

The War Of The Worldwide Church of God's Heats Up!

 



The Worldwide Church of God battle heats up...

Sent this to Ron Stephens this morning.
Dear Mr. Ron Stephens,

Please cease and desist with any attempts on YouTube to report my channel @officialworldwidechurchofgod., and kindly withdrawal your report of me impersonating you. I am not impersonating you or your group. I have ample proof of usage prior to you filing for a new trademark. You not only committed crimes, but you have inflicted damage, and had a YouTube channel removed through a report. Please withdrawal it.
Your "Worldwide Church of God(WCG)" Trademark is not valid until the old usage is killed, and my family has been keeping the original usage alive, through Facebook, YouTube, long before you filed for registration of a new trademark. You had knowledge of this usage prior to filing, and therefore you committed a crime, and lied, and gave false witness. We have proof you had full knowledge, as you came into contact with my family years prior.

I demand you to cease and desist this persecution and suppressive actions you have taken against me and the Worldwide Church of God.
Text me, or email me is best.
In Christ's name,
Samuel W Kitchen

Kiriath-Jearim and the End of British Israelism

The Philistines later returned the Ark to Kiriath-Jearim (Public Domain).

 

Kiriath-Jearim and the End of British Israelism

By Scout


The town of Kiriath-Jearim is mentioned a number of times in the Old Testament and rightly so. It may have been remote from Jerusalem but it seemed to have hosted some of the significant upheavals in the history of ancient Israel. It was originally Hivite town. The Hivites were a branch of the Canaanites and when they inhabited Kiriath-Jearim it was a place of Baal worship. Joshua conquered Kiriath-Jearim and may have changed its name from Kiriath-Baal to Kiriath-Jearim. Later when the Philistines returned the captured Ark to Israel, it first resided in Kiriath-Jearim where it stayed about twenty years. Urijah the son of Shemaiah, a prophet and contemporary of Jeremiah, operated from Kiriath-Jearim. Finally, Jews from Kiriath-Jearim were exiled to Babylon. And now it is the place of the very first excavation of the burial site of an ancient Israelite family where the ancient DNA has been analyzed.

This finding is a significant milestone in the invalidation of British-Israelism by the science of genetics. The study of ancient DNA is called archaeogenetics. This beginning point in the archaeogenetics of Palestine augurs a bleak future of declining credibility for those who make British-Israelism (BI) a part of their theology.

The Excavation in Brief

Tomb raiders hit a location in the village of Abu Ghosh which adjoins Kiriath-Jearim. And Kiriath-Jearim is about 15 kilometers west of Jerusalem. It is on the ancient border between Judah and Benjamin. Typically, archaeologists in Israel would avoid disturbing the remains of the dead but in this case their hand was forced. The tomb was damaged by both construction and looting so the archaeologists did a rapid salvage excavation. The tomb contained at least 10 people along with some ceramic grave goods. This included three adult men and three adult women and four children. It is probable that these people came from the Israelite elite. The contents of the tomb were dated to around 750-650 BCE. This places it in the latter part of the Iron Age or the late First Temple period. (See Reference 2.)

The Haplogroups

First, it is important to point out that the science of genetics is not waging war against BI. BI is a part of the Armstrongist legendarium and is so far outside the pale of scientific inquiry that it does not attract the attention of geneticists. It is up to those of us who have an interest to apply the findings that their research generates to BI.

This is the first recovery of DNA from ancient Israelites living around the First Temple period. Professor David Reich, a geneticist from Harvard University, worked on the genetic analysis. The recovery technique involved using the petrous bone, an area of the skull just behind the ear. This piece of the skull is rich in DNA. Extraction was done on two individuals, a male and a female, and haplogroups were identified. The Y chromosome haplogroup of the man was J2. Both the male and female had mtDNA and the haplogroups were T1a and H87. (Y chromosome haplogroups are inherited through the masculine line and mtDNA is inherited through the female line.) Haplogroup J is quite common in the Middle East and is carried by Jews, Arabs and others. Spencer Wells, in a National Geographic study, identified the ancient Canaanites as haplogroup J. And several ancient Assyrian burials yielded Y chromosome haplogroup J. (See Note below.) T1a is associated with Neolithic Anatolia and H87 is associated with the Arabian Peninsula. The people of Northwest Europe, on the other hand, are principally haplogroups R1a, R1b and I.

The sample data is small so that we cannot yet draw broad conclusions but more research is on the way. Professor David Reich stated:

This is only partial data with a more detailed paper coming in the future. Sampling DNA from ancient Israelites is exciting, as it should make it possible to test how they relate genetically to previous groups, to contemporary non-Israelite groups, and to people living today. (Reference 3.)

The Implications of the Genetics for British Israelism

None of this is good news for advocates of BI. The research is only at the beginning but the archaeology along with current anthropology of modern races indicate which trajectory this will follow in its implications for BI: the Israelites of the Iron Age are haplogroup J and are not identified with Northwest Europeans. The most effective counter-argument that proponents of BI can make at this time is that the sample is too small to really reveal anything. But this argument will continue to erode as more data comes in.

BI would predict that the burials in the area of the Northern Ten Tribes should be dense with the Northwest European Y chromosome haplogroups R1a and R1b. If these haplogroups are not found or found but not dense, then BI collapses for lack of evidence where evidence should be most easily collected.

There is some possibility that Kiriath-Jearim is a northern kingdom city – likely Benjamite. Archaeologist Israel Finkelstein’s excavations at the site revealed that there was a large artificial platform at the top of the settlement. This accords with the urban planning of the northern kingdom. Armstrongism asserts that it is probable that Benjamin is to be identified with the people of Norway. Yet the Norwegians are dominated by Y chromosome haplogroups I and R1a. If the site at Kiriath-Jearim can be shown to be northern kingdom definitively, this presents a small crisis for Armstrongism. But as more data comes in, the small crisis turns into a great thunderstorm. We are now on the cusp of a definitive archaeogenetic case against BI.

Conclusion

There are many reasons why BI is not tenable. Among these, archaeogenetics will provide an extremely tight case. For BI to be true, the burials of Iron Age Palestine and should be densely populated with Y chromosome R1b and R1a in the area of the northern kingdom. These are the haplogroups of Northwest Europeans. And without BI, the prophetic interpretations of Armstrongism collapse. If the Northwest Europeans are shown to be Goyim, then the Northwest Europeans have no significant role in prophecy. The jury is still out on the archaeogenetic case but we have a preview and the case will be soon resolved as more data accumulates.


Note: The fact that the Israelites, Canaanites, and Assyrians are all principally haplogroup J has implications for the interpretation of the so-called Table of Nations in Genesis 10. One can apply genetic principles to the Table of Nations. This is an approach that some reject because they regard the Table of Nations to be a fantasy. But let us assume that it is real. Genetics requires that the three sons of Noah will have the same Y chromosome haplogroup as Noah. It is highly probable that is haplogroup J. Any other conclusion would lack scientific traction and would require a novel, and likely dubious, solution. This means that Ham, Shem, and Japheth were all haplogroup J. Actually, all masculine lines in the Table of Nations are haplogroup J. The Table implies that everyone in the world should be the same haplogroup and, of course, this is not the case. A better fit to reality is that the Flood devastated a collection of villages belonging to a racially homogenous group of people descended from a man named Adam who was haplogroup J. And that the Table reflects Middle Eastern people who are all of the same race. In fact, the genetics of the Israelites (Shemitic) and the Canaanites (Hamitic) are so close, that some geneticists speculate that the Israelites are a sub-group of the Canaanites. While this contradicts the Biblical record, it indicates this closeness between the Israelites and Canaanites. The Biblical record would support the idea that they are “cousins.” Genetics has shown that the modern descendants of Canaan are the Lebanese.

Satan and His Demons Now Zipping Around The World In UFO's So They Can Deceive True COG Members

 

It's another fun day in COG La La Land. The sun is blazing hot on the central coast and the already fried brain of our resident crackpot prophet has been cooked a little more if that was possible. Since he has a direct line to the throne of God and speaks with AUTHORITY on every imaginable topic a human could dream up, the Great Bwana Bob Mzungu Thiel is also the official world authority on UFOs!

A while back, someone sent me an email that claimed:

Since May of 2020, UFO sightings have jumped 2,000% in the New Mexico desert.


He then goes on to quote one person who debunks them as extraterrestrial and then jumps to his favorite NewsMax conspiracy theorist, Mike Snyder:

Extremely strange aircraft are spotted flying through our skies every single day. This is happening in every part of the globe, and those that are having experiences with these aircraft come from a wide variety of different cultures. It has become exceedingly obvious that something is going on, but of course there is a tremendous amount of disagreement about what all of this means. Some argue that these aircraft have an extraterrestrial origin, others argue that they have a terrestrial origin, and yet others believe that most of these sightings can all be explained as “experimental military aircraft”, drones, weather balloons or other man-made anomalies. But at this point nobody can deny that there is lots of strange activity happening above our heads, and it appears to be accelerating.

Snyder's opinion plays really well into the lunacy of the Great Bwana. 

He writes:

A while back, I received an email as well as a letter (which also said it went to numerous COG leaders) from an ex-WCG member who wants the COGs to spend more time examining his views of aliens from outer space. I told him I had written on that topic.
 
That being said, many in the world are convinced that there are aliens from outer space...

Alien Beliefs and the Return of Jesus
Surveys show that the vast majority of Americans believe in UFOs and aliens from outer space. Could there be any truth to reports of paranormal visits? What about the work of SETI? Are there one or more beings watching the Earth? Are we part of a ‘galactic zoo’? What do Roman Catholics, Protestants, and others believe? Are there many ‘UFO religions’? Does the Bible teach anything about this? What about visits from angels and demons? What about various apparitions? What about signs and lying wonders? Has Satan inspired prophecies to get people to fight against Jesus? Might the returning Jesus be considered ‘the Antichrist’ or possibly an attacking alien? Will the nations fail to recognize the returning Jesus and fight against Him? Dr. Thiel addresses these issues and more.

He then quotes this, as his eyes glaze over, as worldly proof, he will soon deliver to the church the ral truth about UFO's:

In the book “One Cosmos Under God” it is scientifically and mathematically proven in exacting detail that the odds of any form of life, much less intelligent life, existing out of chance are tantamount to winning the powerball lottery twenty times in a row. In other words, not possible, therefore a Creator must exist. Why is this not being reported academically when it has just been proven mathematically? Because the Powers-That-Be do not want you to believe in God, which is Truth, because it would lead to the discernment and exposition of their Lies, which they are using for world domination. … 
 
The top two “u.f.o.” researchers on the entire planet, who have spent decades and most of their lives tracking down thousands of leads on this subject, are now shunned by most in the “u.f.o. community”, who once highly respected them, because of their unified conclusions on the subject of “aliens” and “u.f.o.’s”. Both Jacques Vallee and J. Allen Hynek finally came to understand that “u.f.o.’s” are not from outer space, rather they are from here on earth! Both of these top researchers in the “u.f.o.” field now refer to “aliens” as demons instead! … 
 
As repeatedly reported by Jacques Vallee and J. Allen Hynek, numerous subjects undergoing an “abduction experience” invoked the name of Jesus and immediately the event was terminated. Of course you have to ask, if these creatures are merely humanoids from another planet, why then would the name “Jesus” mean anything more to them than “Bob” or “Cathy”? If, on the other hand, their origin is demonic, as both of these top “u.f.o.” researchers concluded after decades of study, then you can easily see the why these entities fled at the uttering of one Word. 10/28/13 http://www.thesleuthjournal.com/aliens-outer-space/ 
 

He continues:

We should expect to see increases in such demonic ‘paranormal’ activity. 
 
Why? 
 
Notice the following prophecy written by the Apostle Paul:

3 Let no one deceive you by any means; for that Day will not come unless the falling away comes first, and the man of sin is revealed, the son of perdition, 4 who opposes and exalts himself above all that is called God or that is worshiped, so that he sits as God in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God. 
 
5 Do you not remember that when I was still with you I told you these things? 6 And now you know what is restraining, that he may be revealed in his own time. 7 For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work; only He who now restrains will do so until He is taken out of the way. (2 Thessalonians 2:3-7) 
 
So, the restrainer will be taken out of the way before the end. 
 
After the restrainer is out of the way, we will see more signs and lying wonders:

8 And then the lawless one will be revealed, whom the Lord will consume with the breath of His mouth and destroy with the brightness of His coming. 9 The coming of the lawless one is according to the working of Satan, with all power, signs, and lying wonders, 10 and with all unrighteous deception among those who perish, because they did not receive the love of the truth, that they might be saved. 11 And for this reason God will send them strong delusion, that they should believe the lie, 12 that they all may be condemned who did not believe the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness. (2 Thessalonians 2:8-12) 
 
Thus we see, that in the New Testament the Apostle Paul warned that towards the end almost all would be deceived by signs and lying wonders. 
 
Deception must be clever to work, and would need some type of ‘verification’ to be believed by the masses. 
 
Throughout history multitudes have already been deceived by signs and wonders coming from statues and alleged apparitions of Jesus and Mary, as well as other demonic manifestations. They have felt that this was ‘proof’ that some false religion was true. But Christians are supposed to walk by faith and not sight (2 Corinthians 5:7). Also notice something that the Apostle John was inspired to write:

1 Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits, whether they are of God; (1 John 4:1)

One thing is for sure, never in the history of the COG have we had so many lying false prophets and self-appointed leaders who are out to deceive the brethren. All of the dreams, visions, and nightmares that the Great Bwana has had are prime examples of the deception at work in the world today.

Satan has a plan and deceit, signs, and lying wonders are part of it. 
 
Supposedly ‘verified’ paranormal activity, Marian-claimed apparitions, and modern entertainment to a degree, have conditioned people to accept as real, improper manifestations, and will in the future.


We are getting closer to the fulfillment of these verses in Revelation. Likely within the next decade or two. 
 
Expect to see more ‘verified’ ‘paranormal’ activity. 
 
This is part of Satan’s Plan. 
 
Don’t fall for it! 
 

 

Bible Talk: The Law of Moses: Cultic or Universal?



The Law of Moses: Cultic or Universal?


In a comment on my last post, the leader of the Church of God International stated: "My position...is that the Law of Moses contains both universal and cultic features, and that the cultic features are time-bound, covenant-specific, and served as types and shadows of a higher and infinitely greater reality. The universal features, on the other hand, are not covenant-dependent at all, but exist apart from the covenant and are, in some measure, 'written on the hearts' (Rom 1:15) of all human beings." He went on to characterize the Ten Commandments as: "The Law of God written on the heart (by the Holy Spirit--the 'finger of God') is the same Law that was written on tablets of stone. That IS the Moral Law." Is Pastor Stinson's position consistent with Scripture?

First, the Bible clearly looks at the Law of Moses as a comprehensive whole. The categories of "universal," "cultic," and "moral" do NOT appear in Scripture! In Torah, we read: "And now, Israel, listen carefully to these decrees and regulations that I am about to teach you. Obey them so that you may live, so you may enter and occupy the land that the Lord, the God of your ancestors, is giving you. Do not add to or subtract from these commands I am giving you. Just obey the commands of the Lord your God that I am giving you." (Deuteronomy 4:1-2, NLT) And: "Look, I now teach you these decrees and regulations just as the Lord my God commanded me, so that you may obey them in the land you are about to enter and occupy. Obey them completely, and you will display your wisdom and intelligence among the surrounding nations. When they hear all these decrees, they will exclaim, ‘How wise and prudent are the people of this great nation!’ For what great nation has a god as near to them as the Lord our God is near to us whenever we call on him? And what great nation has decrees and regulations as righteous and fair as this body of instructions that I am giving you today?" (Deuteronomy 4:5-8, NLT) And: "So Moses told the people, 'You must be careful to obey all the commands of the Lord your God, following his instructions in every detail.'" (Deuteronomy 5:32, NLT) And: "These are the commands, decrees, and regulations that the Lord your God commanded me to teach you. You must obey them in the land you are about to enter and occupy, 2 and you and your children and grandchildren must fear the Lord your God as long as you live. If you obey all his decrees and commands, you will enjoy a long life." (Deuteronomy 6:1-2, NLT) And: "So be careful to obey all the commands I give you. You must not add anything to them or subtract anything from them." (Deuteronomy 12:32, NLT) And: "The Lord your God will be merciful only if you listen to his voice and keep all his commands that I am giving you today, doing what pleases him." (Deuteronomy 13:18, NLT) And: "Today the Lord your God has commanded you to obey all these decrees and regulations. So be careful to obey them wholeheartedly. You have declared today that the Lord is your God. And you have promised to walk in his ways, and to obey his decrees, commands, and regulations, and to do everything he tells you. The Lord has declared today that you are his people, his own special treasure, just as he promised, and that you must obey all his commands." (Deuteronomy 26:16-18, NLT) And: "So you must obey the Lord your God by keeping all these commands and decrees that I am giving you today." (Deuteronomy 27:10, NLT) And: "If you fully obey the Lord your God and carefully keep all his commands that I am giving you today, the Lord your God will set you high above all the nations of the world." (Deuteronomy 28:1, NLT)

Before leaving the Old Testament, I would also like to ask my readers a couple of questions for your consideration: If Mr. Stinson is correct in dividing the commandments of Torah into categories of "cultic" and "universal," which commandments belong in each category? Are clean and unclean meats cultic or universal? Are the festivals cultic or universal? Is the commandment to remember the Sabbath cultic or universal? If they are universal, then why were Gentile nations not permitted to join the Israelite's in their observance? Were both cultic and universal commandments part of God's covenant with Israel?

Like the Hebrew Scriptures, Jesus referred to the "Law of Moses" as a comprehensive whole. We read in the Gospel of Matthew: "Don’t misunderstand why I have come. I did not come to abolish the law of Moses or the writings of the prophets. No, I came to accomplish their purpose." (Matthew 5:17, NLT) And that Jesus said: "You must love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your soul, and all your mind.’ This is the first and greatest commandment. A second is equally important: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ The entire law and all the demands of the prophets are based on these two commandments." (Matthew 22:37-40, NLT)

Likewise, Christ's apostles looked at the Law in the exact same way. In one of his epistles, Paul wrote: "For the whole law can be summed up in this one command: 'Love your neighbor as yourself.'" (Galatians 5:14, NLT) And, in his letter to the twelve tribes scattered abroad, James wrote: "Yes indeed, it is good when you obey the royal law as found in the Scriptures: 'Love your neighbor as yourself.' But if you favor some people over others, you are committing a sin. You are guilty of breaking the law. For the person who keeps all of the laws except one is as guilty as a person who has broken all of God’s laws. For the same God who said, 'You must not commit adultery,' also said, 'You must not murder.' So if you murder someone but do not commit adultery, you have still broken the law." (James 2:8-11, NLT)

In other words, as we have said here many times, ALL of the different iterations of God's Law are based on the premise of love - not doing hurt or harm to anyone (Romans 13:8-10)! This (LOVE) is the foundation of God's Law in both the Hebrew Scriptures and the writings which we refer to as the New Testament!

Crackpot Prophet Warns: The Guts Will Be Torn Out Of America When Yellowstone Super Volcano Blows! Oh Noes!!!!!!!!




A "localized hydrothermal explosion" near the Saphire Pool in the Biscuit Basin of Yellowstone National Park exploded today. These are relatively common occurrences in Yellowstone due to the thermal activity across the basin. The last time it exploded was in 1991.

Never fear though, our favorite Church of God self-appointed crackpot prophet popped his own geyser today and warned unless that the country repents it is going to be destroyed by Yellowstone exploding. These self-appointed crazy crackpots get overstimulated when world events fit the doom-and-gloom scenarios that they want to see happen in the world around them. Then, and only then would all of the lazy Laodicean and atheist reprobates realize they were actually God's messenger. Dream on, buttercup!

The Great Bwana Bob Mzungu Thiel quotes:

As Yellowstone Awakens, Dr. Michio Kaku Warns That It Could “Literally Tear The Guts Out Of The United States Of America” 

One day it will happen. Scientists assure us that one day the absolutely massive Yellowstone supervolcano will once again experience a Category 8 eruption, and if it happened today it would “literally tear the guts out of the United States of America”. That is why what has been happening at Yellowstone in recent months is so alarming. We know that the ground has been rising and that “a 465-mile-long piece of molten rock” is moving upwards directly under Yellowstone. And we also know that the major geysers at Yellowstone were more active last year than in any other year in any of our lifetimes. Are these signs that an eruption is coming? We better hope not, because as Dr. Michio Kaku recently told Fox News, there is “a sleeping Godzilla underneath Yellowstone”

The Great Bwana's eyes probably glazed over at the mere thought of this happening!

He warns us... (It's another "could" moment since he is not a real propeht)

Things will not remain as they have. Yellowstone could erupt–BIG TIME! 
 
The Bible is clear that God controls the weather and various calamities, but wants people to heed His prophets:

6… If there is calamity in a city, will not the Lord have done it?
7 Surely the Lord God does nothing, Unless He reveals His secret to His servants the prophets. (Amos 3:6-7)

He even went to New Zealand and stood on top of a super volcano and preached one of his mind-numbing sermons:

A supervolcanic eruption such as one at Yellowstone or elsewhere could cause major “troubles,” and truly impact the USA and Canada. An earthquake could trigger this. Volcanic eruptions spew out melted elements and can cause much destruction.

While in New Zealand last year, we made a video about this while I was standing on top of a supervolcano:

8:30 

Are supervolcanoes, such as Yellowstone in the USA or various ones in New Zealand a real threat? If so, what type of threat? Are supervolcano issues consistent with biblical prophecies? If so, which ones? Could the eruption of a supervolcano make the USA, New Zealand, or other lands vulnerable to takeover in the Great Tribulation (Matthew 24:21). Dr. Thiel answers these questions while standing atop a supervolcano in a geothermal area of Rotorua, New Zealand.

He just can't shut up...after all, it is ALWAYS about him, foremost.

For years I have warned that the USA could be hit with a ‘perfect storm’ of events and disaster that could weaken it during the ‘beginning of sorrows’ so that it would be easier for it to be taken over at the start of the Great Tribulation. We see that the space agency NASA sees Yellowstone as a serious risk. And while some will scoff and say that the probability is too low, less statistically ‘probable’ events have happened. Plus, because of the decline in morality in the USA, destructive events are going to hit it. 
 
A supervolcano eruption from Yellowstone could be enough to nearly topple the USA–and then allow it to be toppled by the coming European Beast power.

The only way you can save your pathetic Laodocean behind is to repent and join his little cult and be saved!

This is the time to get your spiritual life in order. 
 
Are you doing that? 
 
In order to “be counted worthy to escape all these things that will come to pass, and to stand before the Son of Man,” you need to get your spiritual life in order. You not only need to watch, but also to pray and change.

 


 

LCG Members Must Such Grievous Sinners That They Need To Start Preparing Now For Atonement

 


In Living Church of God their record has been skipping in the same place for a quarter of a century now. Perilous times are knocking at the door. It's just a few short years away. Within 5-10 years, etc. Then, add to that the same message that they heard incessantly from their mother church for decades. Keeping the members scared is well well-worn-out tool of the church.

Plus, there is an incessant mantra that members are NOT ready. They are always asleep at the wheel. They won't be ready when everyone flees in the night.

Because the members are always such miserable failures, they need to start planning now on how they fast on the Day of Atonement, otherwise, their god is not going to listen to them.

I wonder when the weekly message from Winnial will ever be positive. "You are loved by God". "God's grace has set you free", "you are beautiful in God's sight", etc. No "buts, no warnings, no fear factor, no law-keeping threats. 

Let grace abound:

All that passing laws against sin did was produce more lawbreakers. But sin didn’t, and doesn’t, have a chance in competition with the aggressive forgiveness we call grace. When it’s sin versus grace, grace wins hands down. All sin can do is threaten us with death, and that’s the end of it. Grace, because God is putting everything together again through the Messiah, invites us into life—a life that goes on and on and on, world without end. Romans 5:20 MSG

Winnail's incessant whining: 

Prepare for the Fast—Part 1: We are clearly warned that “in the last days perilous times will come” (2 Timothy 3:1–5), and those days will come “suddenly” (Deuteronomy 28:20Isaiah 29:530:13Jeremiah 6:26). We are also warned that Jesus Christ will return unexpectedly(1 Thessalonians 5:2–3) or else all flesh will perish (Matthew 24:20–22). Jesus said His disciples need to “watch” and “be ready” (Matthew 24:42–44), but He also warned that many will not be ready for His return (Matthew 7:21–2325:1–10) because they have become distracted by trials and the “cares of this world” (Matthew 13:18–23). Numerous scriptures warn that we must come out of this world that is hurtling down the road to destruction (Acts 2:402 Corinthians 6:17–18Revelation 18:4). A major reason for the Fast for us—as a Church and as individuals—is to draw closer to God(Isaiah 55:6James 4:8). Take time to pray and meditate on these scriptures as we prepare for the coming Fast.

Have a profitable Sabbath,

Prepare for the Fast—Part 2: The Bible reveals there is a Judgment coming and that Jesus Christ will judge the world when He returns (1 Chronicles 16:332 Timothy 4:1). That judgment will be especially severe on the Israelite nations, which have “forsaken” God and no longer have a “fear” of God as they “do their own thing” (Jeremiah 2:11–19Judges 21:25). They will lose their blessings because they followed misguided leaders who urged them to disobey and despise God’s laws (Leviticus 26:14–17) and to view God’s word—the Bible—as a “strange thing” (Hosea 8:12). The rejection of God and His word has spawned the moral decline, hatred, violence, corruption, and promotion of behaviors like homosexuality and transgenderism that God calls abominations (Leviticus 18:22Romans 1:18–321 Corinthians 6:9–10). However, God reveals what He is looking for in those who will be spared the coming judgment: people who obey His commandments and who are humble and teachable and “tremble at [His] word” (Deuteronomy 10:12–13Isaiah 66:2). Another reason for the coming Fast is to redouble our efforts to develop and show these fruits in our lives.

Have a profitable Sabbath,

PCG Destined To Take The Kingdom of God By Storm! No Weak Men Should Apply

 


There have always been a couple of things that the Church of God had a strange obsession about - Satan and weak effeminate men. Satan is the all-knowing all-powerful god of the church that controls everything. Jesus? Not so much. Satan is discussed more and emphasized more than Jesus ever is.

The other thing that set many church ministers off the deep end was weak or "effeminate" men. Who can forget the 98-pound weakling, turned Golden Gloves champion Rod Meredith and his obsession with gay men when he wrote his "The Shocking Truth About Queer Men". This article was probably a knee-jerk reaction to prove his masculinity after Herbert Armstrong said he was the most effeminate man in the ministry. From that point on all men in the church had to be Alpha men. No weaklings need apply. (See: "Alpha Men" In The Churches of God)

The Philadelphia Church of God has a huge obsession with British Royalty and Winston Churchill. Churchill was a man's man in LCG's eyes and could do no wrong. Gerald Flurry wants his followers to be men of integrity like Churchill, powerful and forceful in accomplishing the mission. He wants his men and followers to be "boiling hot".

We live in the Laodicean era. Revelation 3:15-17 reveal that most of God’s people in this era are lukewarm, complacent and self-satisfied. That is human nature. Their love has waxed cold, but God says, I wish that you were hot! That word “hot” is zestos in the Greek, meaning boiling hot.

Flurry wants them to also be filled with passion:

Do you have passion for truth? For righteousness? For God’s Family and Work? For the plan of God? For the Kingdom? Build passion for the things in your life that God supports.

That passion is needed because they are going to take the Kingdom of God by storm!

There is a lot to be said for having proper enthusiasm and excitement. When you put effort toward something worthwhile, good things will happen. The Bible is full of people whose passion was God and His Work.

Matthew 11:7 says, “And as they departed, Jesus began to say unto the multitudes concerning John, What went ye out into the wilderness to see? A reed shaken with the wind?” Did you expect to see some weak, soft, effeminate man? This man was a messenger for God; he prepared for Christ’s first coming—the first-century type of the end-time Elijah.

“But what went ye out for to see? A man clothed in soft raiment? behold, they that wear soft clothing are in kings’ houses. … Verily I say unto you, Among them that are born of women there hath not risen a greater than John the Baptist: notwithstanding he that is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he. And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffereth violence, and the violent take it by force” (verses 8, 11-12).

“Suffers violence” comes from a Greek word meaning: “forced, overpowered, taken by storm” (Vincent’s Word Studies). Christ says the Kingdom of God is taken by storm! We seize the Kingdom of God like we are conquering a city. 

PCG members need more passion and foregoing some meals to support the work. Christ's meat is all they need. Besides, the church needs the money you would waste on food.

Christ’s meat was to do His Father’s Work. It sustained and energized Him more than physical food. Mr. Flurry writes in John’s Gospel—The Love of God, “If you are like Christ and you miss some meals to do the Work of God, that’s not bad! Christ had enough passion and excitement that He didn’t mind those kinds of inconveniences. His mind was teeming with the vision of God! He was thinking about the World Tomorrow, not the world today. If you are really doing the Work, you have vision!” 

PCG members and especially the Irish dancing men need more zeal and passion to get the work finished. Prancing around on a stage pretending to talk about a guiding hand from someplace, who will soon send his son to sit on Flurry's golden throne, is about as passionless as it could get. Well, other than printing hundreds of booklets in different languages that no one will ever read like Bob Thiel does.

“According to their deeds, accordingly he will repay, fury to his adversaries, recompence to his enemies; to the islands he will repay recompence. So shall they fear the name of the Lord from the west, and his glory from the rising of the sun. When the enemy shall come in like a flood, the Spirit of the Lord shall lift up a standard against him” (verses 18-19). We need more of that zeal and passion—the zeal of the Eternal.

God is stirring us to build the zeal of the Eternal. Ask God for more passion, and He will give it to you. Passion will inspire action and help you surmount obstacles and become a more effective tool for God. You can inspire passion in other people and build a more passionate Family of God.

So get off your lazy butts and be passionate, because your number one reason for being passionate is you will soon be God ruling with power and authority!

Isaiah 62:1 says, “For Zion’s sake will I not hold my peace, and for Jerusalem’s sake I will not rest, until the righteousness thereof go forth as brightness, and the salvation thereof as a lamp that burneth.” Isaiah was eager to do anything possible to proclaim God’s message. The Church’s literature is packed with quotes about the need for passion like the Father and Son have. It should be our number-one passion to declare the message of the God Family.

Samuel Kitchen Claims He Found His Brother Trying To Conjure Up A Demon

 


Just when you think the Church of God can't sink any lower, along comes someone to restore your faith.

This ongoing public mental breakdown of Samuel Kitchen is sad and unbelievable. Armstrongism has such a negative effect on people anymore. Instead of focusing on Jesus, he placed his entire trust in Herbert Armstrong, the supposed one true Apostle who apparently still speaks from the grave to keep Samuel on the narrow path.

Recently there have been tremendous issues in the Kitchen family with brother being pitted against brother, all thanks to Armstrongism.

Samuel Kitchen has now resorted to claiming his younger brother is possessed by demons and has recently found him trying to conjure up a demon. Samuel let his brother move in with him to help with his window cleaning business. Apparently, demons moved in also and Samuel has been busy casting them out:

He thought while working, me pausing and working on office work and book keeping, was negligent and unnecessary, and I needed to be with him to finish the cleaning. I said, no I'm the boss and I have responsibilities and I needed to get this done. 
 
This triggered him, and a wrong attitude came about. He began to believe I was taking advantage of him. He was no longer led by a cooperative spirit. 
 
Since then, things have worsened. I've had to put out several demons, and restore order in my house. I caught my brother sitting in the dark, fuming and foaming in his emotions, trying to conjure a demon, and in his own words "searching for the devil". His spiritual condition got worse, and he refused to study the Bible or pray. He kept telling me, he already did.

Then, horror of horrors, Samuel walked in and heard him playing heavy metal which apparently to Samuel is a pipeline for demons to come in and enter his brother's mind:

So I've been telling him he needed to leave. He had me take him to a Walmart in a town 30 miles away, and drop him off as he was leaving to go to a homeless shelter. Upon finding they were full and could not accept him, he called me up and I picked him back up. 
 
I talked with him many times, about finding a job, working for a couple of weeks and renting a place of his own. I didn't want him homeless. And he went back and forth with wrong attitudes and wrong spirits. 
 
Now, he told me he never experienced these type of attacks until he moved up with me. I kind of agree with him on that. The Devil doesn't attack an evil thing. We were two men, who I thought was walking the same path. I talked to him over the phone and he sounded like he had a good relationship with God, and when things weren't working out for him in Kansas City, I opened up my heart, my home and my business to him. 
 
I even paid for his flight tickets for the feast this year.(Something that is not refundable I found out)
God began to bless my business here locally. It doubled in one week. And I have tried to remind my little brother of what God is doing. But he has taken the stance I am using him for personal gain.
Tuesday night, this week, he was playing metal and screaming music in my bedroom, indulging in the evil spirits and anger and hate. He has done this in the past, and he is evoking demons and wants to swim in the hate and bitterness. So I walked in and for over an hour, sang Bible hymns, and confronted the demons that were coming in. 
 
The last time things got this heated and out of hand, in he was possessed, and he tried to stab me and did a lot of damage to my home, and it was the Devil that entered him and told me to my face I was going to die and he was going to do it in Jerusalem. 
 
This time, he told me he was looking for the devil to possess him. I asked the demon that was entering him, his name, and I got profanity and "I told you before".
It ended with the demons leaving, and I went to bed.

Things did not get better the next morning:

I was walking to the library to upload this next week's Bible study and Church services, to the channels my brother Tim(another brother) had returned to me last week. 
 
He was still part of the channel, because YouTube didn't allow me to become "primary owner" until after seven days of being an owner. Tim made me an owner, and since YouTube saw I was just added, they said I had a seven day period before I could become "primary". 
 
So while I was working on that, I received emails telling me I had been removed from the channels and I was no longer owner. 
 
I contacted my brother, he refused to answer my calls or messages. 
 
When I posted yesterday about it, he messaged me telling me how I wronged Clint, and he took it back because of how I was treating Clint and will not give it back. I needed to change he said, and he took the side of Clint. 
 
Clint, had called Tim, while I was going to the Library, and gave him a story, full of lies.

Tim, took to himself, without coming to me about this situation, and took the channels, on total condemnation against me.

Samuel sees this as a direct attack by Satan who is angry that he runs the Worldwide Church of God.

It has been a stressful several weeks, of battling the Devil and demons, and those easily led by them.
The Devil wants to destroy the Worldwide Church of God, and me doing what I was doing on YouTube was helping the Church. 
 
So please pray for me. My family has turned against me. I am not afraid, but I am deeply concerned for my well being. 
 
I came home yesterday, ordered my little brother to leave the house immediately. He was no longer welcomed. He called the police on me, who arrived and told me he couldn't leave according to state laws and I have to serve a 30 day eviction on him. 
 
I can end my lease and move, forcing him to leave sooner, but I would be displaced and without home. 
 
I think that is what Satan wants. 
 
So I'm praying about finding a new place, or waiting out things here behind enemy lines, until the 30 days are up. 
 
It's all in God's hands. I realize a YouTube channel is not the Church. A website is not the Church. I don't need a home to continue to obey God. I don't need anything. God has provided everything for me. So whatever happens, I know it'll be okay. My comforter and protector is near. My concern is whether I am close to him, and that's what I'm focusing on right now. 
 
Please pray for me brethren. I need your prayers.

What Samuel and this entire family need is a good psychotherapist who deals with mental illness, cult trauma, and recovery. It should NOT be a COG minister who is not qualified.

It is actually sad to see what Armstrongism has done to this family. They aren't the first and will not be the last.
