The Church of God is filled with so many lying false prophets it is hard to keep track of them anymore. Here is what Alton Billingsley said in 2021 and has to be taken with a grain of salt since every other prediction the man has made has been an epic failure:
Here is what he predicted. Billingsley is the king of possiblies, maybe's, and could be's, just like that other lying false prophet, Bwana Bob Mzungu Thiel.
Possibly close to the Passover, April 4, 2023, will begin the famine to last for three and one-half years that God in heaven above is bringing on His people, the House of Joseph, America and Britain, and other tribes of Israel.Prophecy also makes known the devil will release Assyria-Germany from the bottom- less pit. Therefore, bringing into existence the Holy Roman Empire sometime during the year, 2024.Then the severity of the famine, with pestilence, Covid 19 mutating into the black plague, will commence destroying America in particular—then the same to come upon the other Israeli nations in 2026! All this is to be followed by nuclear warfare (Ezekiel 5:12)—with the lone exception of Judah. Her fate will come later.
Before all this, there will be a civil war, 2024-2025 (Jeremiah 51:46 "... Violence in the land ruler against ruler....") Could the civil war begin because of the possible assassination of President Trump? Something momentous will have to happen to trigger it! The civil war will start before the finality takes place. Details will follow in other writings.
This year, 2023, will lead into unparalleled and frightening times! This nation and the world are presently asleep to what will soon befall them, similar to the pre-flood world of Noah, and Sodom and Gomorrah (Luke 17:26-30 "... so will it be in the day when the Son of Man is revealed ...").
May God have mercy. The Ezekial Watchman
The cover letter had this:
This is a cover letter for the Ezekiel Warning Messages to begin appearing monthly on the Church of God Faithful Flock Website-Warnings from God's use of His promised Elijah of the end-time to a people who have rejected and forgotten their God.
In view of Prophetic Biblical teachings, connected with major disastrous events, now occurring, and projected to worsen on a national and international scale over the next few years, strongly implies Jesus Christ will be standing on this earth in the year-2029. This is eight years from now, 2021. How quickly time flies!
They also make known this nation is in mortal danger of being destroyed, as a nation, along with Britain, and other nations of Israel, in the year 2026-no more than five years from now, 2021. Prophesied to be destroyed by a super-power far greater than America.
Though it has not yet appeared, it is prophesied to be fully developed by the year-2024. This is only three years from now, 2021.
Every single prophet the modern-day Church of God movement has had has been a liar. All any of them need is one prediction to not come true and they are called by God, false prophets. It is time people stop listening to these lying fools and above all, STOP giving them money!
As Dick Armstrong could attest, the only thing more dangerous than relying on Billingsley for prophecy is relying on him as your driver.
ReplyDeleteDistasteful. I've heard similar remarks before....
DeletePrediction addiction….it just goes on and on and on and on and on and……fill it in……..
ReplyDeleteHere’s my prediction……………prediction addiction will continue on and on and on and on and ……….fill it in………..on and on and on and on and on and on and on……………….
Will a real prophet please stand up……..but please not all at once…………give yourselves room……….don’t be pushy………………
And it’s not just the Armstrong movement that is afflicted by this phenomenon, YT and the ‘net’ are awash with this……………..
1. No one knows the day or the hour.
ReplyDelete2. No prophecy is of any private interpretation.
Don’t believe me. Believe the Bible.
"The word advent comes from the Latin term adventus meaning "arrival" or "coming," particularly the coming of something having great importance."
ReplyDeleteArmstrongism is a Adventist church, so the "end is nigh" is central to its teachings.
Sadly, Alton B. “Don” Billingsley does not seem to have learned anything from the past 90 years of wrong prophetic guesses. With old age should come great wisdom and humility, not more arrogant stupidity to waste other people's lives.
ReplyDeleteFortunately, only other old fools are still with the OLD FOOL Alton Billingsley. It would be tragic for him to ruin the lives of any more youths.
"Covid 19 mutating into the black plague"
ReplyDeleteI will be most curious to behold a viral disease mutating into a bacterial disease.
What do you call prophecy that does not become fulfilled?
ReplyDeleteShit. These people have spent their lifetimes shoveling it, and their followers have not only been stepping in it, they've been willingly walking in it!
Little narrow-minded people focus their attention on little things, on other people around them, and on their immediate physical surroundings and temporal things. But big broad-minded people focus their attention on big things, on the big picture of God's awesome purpose and "plan" in the long run, in creating man on the earth, in the "on-going creation process" of the molding and shaping of God's holy, righteous, perfect, character in humans, until we are finally finished in the making, a spiritual creation, composed of spirit essence like the Father and Christ are. We as humans, are only partially made, not yet a completed creation.
ReplyDeleteA lot of people today want to start their own churches ⛪️, and some of them ask me to pray for it, for God to bless it and make it a success, instead of the other way around what it should be, of supporting with your prayers, tithes, and offerings, God's cause of fulfilling the "great commission," which Jesus Christ gave to His disciples and apostles, His Church, of Matthew 24:14, 28:18-20. They have already made up their mind as to what doctrines they want to believe, teach, and practice instead of what they/ we all should be doing, which is: to read ๐ and study ๐ God's Word daily, and praying to the Father in heaven daily ๐, to gain and maintain contact with God, that vital connection with our Maker and heavenly Father: to learn what He wants for us to do, how we ought to live, what doctrines that we ought to live by, believe, teach, and practice. They have it turned upside down, the opposite way that it should be; as if they know better than God does. Automatically blessings flow from obeying God's laws, but automatically cursings ๐คฌ flow from disobeying/ breaking them. Don't teach that we should break God's laws, and still pray for God to bless them. Because He won't. The Bible says, ✍️ "He that turns away his ear๐from hearing the law, even his prayer๐ shall be an abomination." Proverbs 28:9.
ReplyDeleteI didn't even know if he had any kind of ministry? He was nice when I first talked to him and his first wife, but I could hear as time went on subtle changes. He began to be sound like he and the "work" that they were doing were so important. And that they (cogff) were basically the ONLY TRUE CHURCH.
ReplyDeleteBillingsley reminds me of an old Jerry Lee Lewis song, Middle Age Crazy. The line "trying to prove he still can" applies very well to him and all the other ACOG'ers who hanging in there hoping their prophecies will com true some day.
ReplyDeleteIt is incorrect to call everyone in the cog’s “prophets.”
ReplyDeleteSome few call themselves prophets, but prove by their mistakes that they are not. Those are false prophets.
Many of those Gary loves to label false prophets are simply scripture “interpreters “ who are misguided. They have been taught that we can read the scriptures and the Holy Spirit will help them understand what is meant. A real prophet, biblically, is one who receives messages direct from the Father through His spirit. Those prophets no longer are used today as scripture shows.
So, it would be nice if Gary would be more accurate in his criticism, and would make things clearer as to why the cog ministry makes so many wrong predictions.
Also, those who say we can’t know the day or hour of Messiah’s return need to reread the question asked. The question was about restoring the nation of Israel. We now know that date as Israel is again a nation.
There are several clues in scripture that indicate we can know the time of the return. Our problem is, can we accurately put the pieces together for a change.
Have a nice Sabbath, 8:58!
DeleteDoing the Work a preacher does is not just what you say and preach with your mouth and in writing, but more importantly how you live. It is a lifestyle. Living the one right way. There are many different wrong ways of life, that the Devil, all the demons and most people are living today, the ways of misery, unhappiness, chaos, confusion, destruction and, in the end all lead to certain death. But there is only one RIGHT WAY to live, the way our Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ our older brother and the righteous angels have always lived, and will continue living for all eternity, the way of peace and happiness, the way of LOVE of outgoing concern for others. Practicing the golden rule, Do unto others as you would have them do unto you! Are you living this way? How many of your friends and associates and others living in this world today do know are really practicing God's way of life of LOVE?
ReplyDeleteOther English versions of the Holy Bible such as the New King James Version, New International Version, American Standard Version can also be used, but I still consider the Authorized King James version 1611, to be #1. for the English language. Because it is the first and oldest English Version, with probably fewer mistakes in translation mistranslations, than any other. Also, because the Bible Helps, such as Strong's Exhaustive Bible Concordance, lists every word in the Holy Bible (for reference) for the King James Version 1611, but not for the NIV or any other English Versions. Because different words would be used in the other Translations Versions. Also, the Strong's Concordance has the Hebrew and Greek Dictionaries in the back, explaining the meaning of each word in the Bible.
ReplyDelete2030 or thereabouts has become the new 1933, 1972, 1975, Millennium bug 1999 make of that what you will.
ReplyDeleteInterestingly 2030 is being predicted by 'financial investor experts' as a date for a world depression putting the 1929 great depression into the shade.
Now, nothing has to happen physically to be seen by the physical eye before the return? We are as in the days of Noah. Some prophecies are for the spirit world. Some prophecies that false prophets and false apostles claim have to happen happened already, some long ago.
ReplyDeleteAccording to former CIA agent Ray McGovern, STRATFOR works for the CIA. STRATFOR is where Gerald Flurry gets a lot of information from. What kind of "prophecy" is that crap?

In February 2024, the only "famine" seems to be among Palestinians in Gaza. Not exactly the siblings of Joseph.
ReplyDeleteI read the pdf at the link. I don't think Billingsley is fully in control of his faculties. That was seriously sloppy on multiple levels, from the formatting to the bad historical data.
ReplyDelete"I will be most curious to behold a viral disease mutating into a bacterial disease."
ReplyDeleteYou win the internet for the day, good sir.
There could be a bacterial infection involved if the disease were being spread by some of the anal sex people were discussing over there on the other thread. But, it wouldn't be a morph so much as an additional factor.
ReplyDeleteDON'T LEAVE YOUR CHILDREN AROUND BILLINGSLEY EITHER!
ReplyDeleteMankind operates on predicting a year (and they miss it every time), but with God a thousand years is one day.
