Timothy Kirchen has a post about. "God’s Work Needs God’s Representation". It has a lot of the normal Armstrongist beliefs till this paragraph:
Because the Church is to become the Kingdom of God, it must already reflect both life and government now — before Christ’s return and the resurrection. Christ, as Head, leads His Church both spiritually and organizationally so that when the resurrection occurs, the Church can immediately transition into ruling the Kingdom of God without needing to redesign its structure or reestablish spiritual life.
Can you imagine Christ coming back and immediately unleashing the Churches of God upon the world as the perfect embodiment of church government and spirituality? Seriously?
Looking at these blasphemous church leaders masquerading as men of God today in COGland and how they have set themselves up as God's personal mouthpiece—and watching the pure hell their current churches are experiencing—how could anyone in their right mind see a bunch of COGers elevated by Christ into gods and goddesses to rule the world and expect true church governance and true spirituality?
The Churches of God are filled with spiritual rot thanks to men like Thiel, Pack, Flurry, and Weinland. God is no more going to use these guys than he will Gerald Weston. Where is there any COG doing a "work"? No one even knows who any of them are anymore!
The splinters definition of government amounts to "we own you and you have no rights." People would be jumping into the lake of fire to avoid this government.
