How to tell if you are a Laodicean or a TRUE Church of God Member

  1. Love this! One of the first things I did when leaving Armstrongism was throw out my marked up Bible and buy a new one.

  2. True Christians only use a Moffatt translation Bible. If it was good enough for Herb, Outhouse, and Spanky, it is good enough for us!

  3. Colour coding bibles is happening in all different denominations of Christianity. It has actually had a revival in recent years due to social media. Christian bible influencers have many followers teaching how they code their own bibles is very popular amongst young christians. It's a huge trend.

  4. Years ago, my mother had marked up her Mystery Of The Ages in the same way she marked up her Bible. When her minister saw this, he was deeply offended by it. I never understood why.

    1. 'Cause 'twas permitted to scribble onto God's book but not onto or unto Pasadena's book.

  5. On a side note….do Muslims mark the Quran the same way as we see in the post, or is that haram or forbidden? It’s quite bizarre the church ‘error’ doctrine, spelling mistake on purpose lol. A look at the book of Revelation now, and not coloured by Armstrongism, I see another message and certainly not the doctrine of church ‘errors’. Error did indeed mark and does mark this movement today. Laodicean attitudes are legend within this organisation, but will the TRUE church of God please stand up. And not so quick Bob Thiel lol.

    So, which one of those two vandalizes Bibles and fills them with graffiti?

  7. Marking your Bible and getting tattoos are very similar, in that most people who do either have no artistic sense, or are suffering from a logic deficiency. Either one is something many people do because everybody else is doing it.

    At Ambassador College Bookstore they just could not keep enough wide-margin KJV Bibles and Rapidograph fine point pens in stock.

    Actually, the most thoughtful method of Bible marking I ever saw involved color-coding of different topics as covered in the Correspondence Course. A European gentleman we knew at church had done that. His wife showed us.
