This was sent to Aaron Dean.
The following are quotes from Mr. Armstrong in an article he wrote in 1939.
“The true Christian must be willing at all times to be corrected and chastened — and must continually seek to GROW in knowledge as well as in grace!”-Herbert W Armstrong(Good News Magazine, February-April 1939)
“At Mt. Sinai, God set up AN ORGANIZATION. Make no mistake about that!
“In our quest to learn WHETHER God's people should join themselves together in an ORGANIZATION, having CHURCH GOVERNMENT, let us begin by recognizing that in the beginning, at Sinai, God Himself formed His people into an ORGANIZATION, having GOVERNMENT.”-Herbert W Armstrong(Good News Magazine February-April 1939)
“It is IMPOSSIBLE to have ORGANIZATION, or GOVERNMENT, without having a MAN as the actual and real head, even tho we SAY Christ in heaven is the Head, and continue to try to believe it that way.”- Herbert W Armstrong (Good News Magazine February-April 1939)
“When God first set up AN ORGANIZATION on earth, the people who formed this organization were MARRIED to the Lord. It was this MARRIAGE that bound Him and His people together.”- Herbert W Armstrong, (Good News Magazine February-April 1939)
“It was this marriage, then, that established ORGANIZATION and GOVERNMENT among God's people.”-Herbert W Armstrong (Good News Magazine February-April 1939)
“We want to repeat that. We want you to understand it — for it is of great importance — it is the KEY FACT upon which the real truth, so long hidden, really hinges. IT WAS THE MARRIAGE THAT FORMED GOD'S PEOPLE INTO AN ORGANIZATION HAVING CHURCH GOVERNMENT!
“That being so — and it IS so, and none can deny it — then it naturally follows that THE ORGANIZATION and the GOVERNMENT of God's people, at least as ordained and sanctioned by the Lord, EXISTED ONLY AS LONG AS THE MARRIAGE UNION WHICH ESTABLISHED IT!
“If the marriage was done away, the ORGANIZATION and the CHURCH GOVERNMENT was at the same time done away. For it was only this marriage relationship which established the organization — the kingdom — the government, both civil and ecclesiastical.
“When God first proposed the Old Covenant marriage, (Ex. 19:5- 6), He promised His people that IF — notice the IF — they would be obedient, as a wife should to her husband, they would become "a kingdom of PRIESTS, and an holy NATION." In other words, a GOVERNMENT of a religious character — a CHURCH GOVERNMENT!
“This is repeated in Leviticus 26. There the blessings to accrue for obedience are enumerated, together with the PUNISHMENT for DISOBEDIENCE. And what was that punishment to be?
“Notice it! — "they that hate you shall REIGN OVER YOU . . . SEVEN TIMES" — or 2520 years! (Verses 14-28).
“Look at it, in your own Bible. If Israel, the WIFE, married unto the Lord, proves disobedient, Israel is to LOSE her government. No longer to be AN ORGANIZATION! Enemy nations shall REIGN OVER — rule over — the Israelites. “Their own government no longer will rule them. No longer will they be an organization of their own.
“This God threatened to turn the GOVERNMENT — THE ORGANIZATION, if you please, over to the GENTILES for 2520 long years, TAKING ORGANIZATION AND GOVERNMENT AWAY FROM HIS PEOPLE!”-Herbert W Armstrong (Good News Magazine February-April 1939)
Dear Mr. Dean,
“And this have ye done again, covering the altar of the Lord with tears, with weeping, and with crying out, insomuch that he regardeth not the offering any more, or receiveth it with good will at your hand.Yet ye say, Wherefore? Because the Lord hath been witness between thee and the wife of thy youth, against whom thou hast dealt treacherously: yet is she thy companion, and the wife of thy covenant. And did not he make one? Yet had he the residue of the spirit. And wherefore one? That he might seek a godly seed. Therefore take heed to your spirit, and let none deal treacherously against the wife of his youth. For the Lord, the God of Israel, saith that he hateth putting away: for one covereth violence with his garment, saith the Lord of hosts: therefore take heed to your spirit, that ye deal not treacherously.”(Malachi 2:13-16)
The marriage covenant we made at baptism, is the point in our lives where we told God “All that you say to do, we will do”!
We entered into a marriage covenant with Jesus Christ and we were added to the spiritual body of Christ.
This marriage covenant, organized the spiritual organism together into the Worldwide Church of God. The Church of God well organized.
In the Philadelphia era, it was through one man, like Moses, in which we have been organized!
Mr. Armstrong wrote in that same article quoted above, “But what of the separated individual believer, who tries to GET his salvation all by himself or by following some MAN or any of hundreds of professing Christian denominations of our day? He is CUT OFF from that TRUE teaching, which Christ reveals to and through His apostle!
What if one in the Church disagrees on some point of doctrine? Then he is out of harmony with God's Church. And GOD HAS ONLY THE ONE CHURCH.
And all in the Church are commanded to speak the same thing — and it must be what CHRIST, either in person or by written Word, has taught His apostle.
To the church at Corinth, the apostle Paul wrote: "Now I beseech you brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye all speak the same thing". (1 Corinthians 1:10) Some of them wanted to follow Peter, some wanted to follow Apollos, some Paul. But PAUL was their apostle and Christ taught them by PAUL.
The separated individual believer will follow his own idea of God's truth. THAT IS NOT GOD'S WAY.
God in His almighty wisdom, has raised up the CHURCH, as HIS MEANS of teaching all the SAME TRUTH — all speaking the SAME THING! Not each individual his own thing!”(end quote)
When we recognize how we received the doctrines of Christ, we do give honor by acknowledging Mr Armstrong as the instrument and apostle whom Christ used to give us what we believe! Just as the children of Israel recognized that through Moses, God was leading them!
Christ taught us by Herbert W Armstrong! The only apostle in the Philadelphia era.
So when we were baptized, we entered into a marriage covenant with Jesus Christ and then were given ORGANIZATION, or God’s Government, which formed us into the Worldwide Church of God!
That is the wife of your youth, spoken about in Malachi 2.
Now when people tell me the Worldwide Church of God was destroyed, annihilated etc, I wonder if it isn’t a demon spirit behind them talking against the marriage covenant!
To the disobedient, they lost the Lordship and Government of God, and so the organization of the Worldwide Church of God was lost to them! They left the Church!
So we see the destruction of those in various high positions within the Church, as they lost the ORGANIZATION which is connected to the marriage covenant with Christ!
Some have left the Worldwide Church of God, with complaints, with criticism, and with the goal of rewriting the New Testament marriage covenant! They organize together under terms and conditions, they put together.
Now when compared to the ORGANIZATION of the Worldwide Church of God through the apostle, of which we have already been added to spiritually….there are some big differences, and even a small difference is wrong! Why is it wrong? Because when we made a covenant with Christ, we did not dictate to Christ the terms and conditions of that covenant!
These new organizations have attempted to humanly correct Jesus Christ, concerning problems they saw with the Worldwide Church of God! Thus they have presented their own covenant, and now expect God to accept them on their own terms!
They have ran to Babylon, to incorporate, to create their ORGANIZATION. That is fornication, as we are supposed to be waiting as a bride for Jesus Christ!
We have no right, to ORGANIZE like Korah did outside of Moses, or like Aaron and Miriam did when they say they too were Holy and that God spoke through them! That is following MEN.
Now of course Paul was a man. Mr Armstrong was a man. But they were the men whom God chose and used to organize all of us in the Body of Christ!
So these COG groups are like the individuals who have left the Church to try to gain the Kingdom and enter the Kingdom of God their own way, by their own terms and conditions.
When you enter into a covenant with them and their Jesus, you deal treacherously against the wife of your youth. The Worldwide Church of God!
You realize your ministerial authority, is with your covenant you made with Jesus Christ in the Worldwide Church of God?
How can you prepare the bride, if you are floundering with another woman? Because the organization of another church, is a daughter of Babylon, and certainly not of God! And enjoying her delicacies and charms and receiving a payroll from her, interferes with your job and function inside the ORGANIZATION of the Worldwide Church of God!
Isn’t that why we can hear how the Worldwide Church of God was “destroyed” or was “annihilated”.
Have you lost the ORGANIZATION or the Government which God put inside of the Worldwide Church of God?
Does this other ORGANIZATION give you more control over things? Like Pharisees under Rome?
What happens when Rome takes full authority? It happened to Israel and Babylon!
They tried it with the 1979 receivership!
I’m a member of the Worldwide Church of God because I have a marriage covenant with Jesus Christ, and He ORGANIZED me as my head into the Worldwide Church of God, through the apostle. And if I keep my eyes on Jesus Christ who brought me here, and acknowledge whom He used to reveal His truth to me, then I am not following after men nor my own ideas!
The creation of the 1993 regional structure, was an act of disobedience. The result was the loss of the Organization called the Worldwide Church of God.
Those inside are still inside, while those who lost it have lost it. They had to go to the governments of this world in order to organize themselves and create a new covenant that JESUS CHRIST WILL NOT ACCEPT! It is that serious!
That is something I do not want to strengthen people in. To help people commit fornication and forsake the marriage covenant? Aren’t you supposed to be preparing the Bride?!? Why sabotage the bride of Christ then, by leading them to another woman? That’s what you do when you attend these groups. That’s why I haven’t attended them!
Lift up the stumbling blocks! Prepare the way so the people may escape and be ready for marriage with Jesus Christ!!!
Responsibilities are hard. Our example can lead many astray.
But remember God is a merciful and loving God, quick to forgive. As long as we humble ourselves and repent wholly unto God!
You have already been duly appointed as an administrator of the Worldwide Church of God, its work, assets and its activities. That is your ministerial assignment. You already through your marriage covenant at baptism, are part of the ORGANIZATION of the Worldwide Church of God.
Do not forsake the wife of your youth in order to be organized with those who have been disobedient.
It may have not appeared like the UCG was founded on disobedience at the time. Satan is clever, and everyone may have had good intentions but Satan does best what he does.
We need to acknowledge where we have been wrong, that we are wrong, and repent and turn around fully into God!
That disobedience has separated the membership and ministry of the Worldwide Church of God, to make another covenant and organize themselves into a new group. This is not holding fast.
Your obedience has been noticed by God. Has it not? I don’t see why any of this would be brought to you otherwise. This is about the Bride of Christ! And getting ready! And preparing the bride!
Let us renew our vows to God! Stop sleeping around! Stop being indifferent and lukewarm!
Let us not deal treacherously with the wife of our youth!
In Christ’s service, May God’s will be be done and may we be the thunder that follows,
Sam Kitchen

Dean is not an honest politician. Look at what he did when Herbie died.
Wishy-Washy Wimp Blows Incredible Job Offer
Samuel Kitchen is still trying to hire and control Aaron Dean. Of course, Aaron Dean would have to go along with whatever Samuel Kitchen makes up. Also, the UCG probably pays better than Samuel Kitchen ever could, although maybe Aaron Dean could earn his keep by helping out with the window washing.
Aaron Dean claimed that Herbert W. Armstrong had once briefly offered him the opportunity to be the next leader of the Worldwide Church of God, but Aaron Dean was such a wishy-washy wimp that he blew the chance. Herbert W. Armstrong has now been dead for 39 years. It seems unlikely that Aaron Dean will ever get another offer to really lead anything.
Having previously rejected Herbert W. Armstrong's offer to be the actual leader of the large, REAL Worldwide Church of God, Aaron Dean certainly better reject now Samuel Kitchen's offer to “lead” (under Samuel Kitchen) the new, little (one member), FAKE “Worldwide Church of God.”
In the past, Aaron Dean seemed to spend his time whining about how HWA had fired him a few times. There were supposedly lots of bad big shots at WCG HQ and yet somehow, for some reason, Aaron Dean seems to have been unable to tell HWA about them and what they were up to. Perhaps Aaron Dean's assurance that he would never lie to HWA did not include “lies of omission.”
The PCG splinter group claimed to have contacted Aaron Dean and reported that he had said that HWA was wrong about this and that HWA was wrong about that.
Another time, Aaron Dean was complaining about HWA spending the members' money on expensive watches for his friends.
Still, Aaron Dean does appear to be much better than his brother, Kevin Owen Dean, who ended up in prison for molesting young girls.
This is freaky.
My goodness the fruit in the fruitcakes is rich indeed.
Hands up who is happy to have left this organisation that has created so much carnage and produced such nonsense.
Hands up everywhere……………..
This has become a case of stalking. It is difficult to describe any one single act that happens within Armstrongism as being "crazy" because virtually every bit of sewage that flows from that man-made religion has been both toxic and crazy! Look at what the teachings of just one long dead false prophet have done to people who can't accept that the man who was their spiritual idol was just plain wrong! People are beginning to realize that they will die without the events they based their entire lives upon ever coming to pass! I understand their angst! We've warned about this for decades now, and they just won't, or cannot cut it loose.
An obsession such as this does not just go away. It's different from witch doctors in Africa, demons at summer camp, babbling about the next date upon which Jesus just has to return, or jetting all around the world to preach the gospel through Irish dancing. It continues to worsen, and I'm afraid it will not end well. Either Aaron or some official at UCG needs to report it to the FBI. Get it on record. It needs the attention of somebody who can do something about it before it becomes a terminal event.
Coming soon to a television near you…..
From the Samuel Kitchen basement…
“I Dream of Deanie”
Aaron Dean may show a little too much belly button button but he sure does love rubbing that lamp wishing for more time with the chosen one.
The only ones giving Samuel Kitchen's idolization of Dean free publicity is this blog. None elsewhere are. Only this blog. Why?
The very header of this blog states the reason.
"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."
