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.
Herbert Armstrong's Tangled Web of Corrupt Leaders
Watching this took me back to John baptising in the Jordan. How simple it was. And the Pharisees looked on in astonishment wondering who this was and is. And they were called sons of so and so’s by him who baptised. Oh the simplicity of faith. We have taken something so simple and made it complicated, and it’s tied many in knots of anxiety and confusion and made more than a few pharisaical and set many at each other’s throats. Yet Christ came to give us life more abundantly, now and in the age to come. The Armstrong ‘model’ for many did not give that abundance, on the contrary it was a burden. It has splintered and devoured its children. What went wrong?
And on the sabbath we went out of the city by a river side, where prayer was wont to be made; and we sat down, and spake unto the women which resorted thither. Acts 16:13.
Unconverted children of the devil making a spectacle about baptism. It is time the COG repents from allowing blogs like this to exist that mock God's truth!
When I started attending services in the 1970s, I was amazed to discover that many members were no different than those at my workplace. They were compulsively abusive and regarded morality as a joke. John the Baptist told his audience to bear fruits of repentance before baptism, but not so with the ministers of HWA. Appearances and numbers trumped members salvation.
Yesterday was the 80 years since the liberation of Auschwitz memorial day. Yet despisement and hatred of others for their beliefs has not gone, infact antisemitism is on the rampant rise in the world.
In the context of 'Auschwitz 80' and the widespread media coverage that it brought. How does this blog and the attitude it stirs up fit ?

Thank you for asking. This blog continually stirs up the attitude of righteous indignation for the lies and abuses by the Church of Herb. This blog has also helped me become more respectful of other people's right to have beliefs that differ from my own.
My ancestors were Primitive Baptists. They would go down to the river or creek to baptize. They believed baptisms had to take place in running water, because John baptized people in places that had running water.

Seeing the tent reminds me of Jekyll Island back in the 60's a little guy running around, still love that place..

Loved that song/scene in the movie Brother Wherefore Art Thou.

Right. It exposes the wrongs and sins of Armstrong and Armstrongism. It is good to point out such things.
