Wade Cox, one of the ever-proliferating splinter gurus spawned from Herbert W. Armstrong’s Worldwide Church of God, has once again blessed us with his latest masterpiece of cosmic fan-fiction. In it, he unfolds what he insists is the grand narrative of human existence. Cox has turned out to be the COG version of L Ron Hubbard.
According to Cox, Satan’s master plan from the beginning was to block as many of the “elect” as possible from entering the First Resurrection. Why? Because those elite few who pass the test are destined to become the key leaders of the “Human sector of the Elohim host” — glorious Morning Stars, Covering Cherubim, and Sector Commanders who will lord it over vast regions of the universe when God finally descends to run everything from Earth headquarters in the highly specific and surely-not-made-up year of 3128 AD.
Mankind, he explains, has been subjected to a divine aptitude test courtesy of the Fallen Host. The exam is delightfully simple: Keep the Law, the Testimony, and especially the sacred Temple Calendar — complete with New Moons, Passover, Pentecost, and the Feasts of the Seventh Month, all scrupulously observed “outside the gates” per Deuteronomy 16. Score high enough, and you graduate to full Elohim godhood in the First Resurrection. Flunk it and you get shipped off to the Second Resurrection for a remedial 100-year boot camp in the conveniently extended Cities of Refuge during the Millennium.
Oh, and once the blinders come off, humanity will be so furious at the deception that they’ll naturally want to rip apart every pope, cardinal, bishop, Trinitarian, Sunday-keeper, Christmas-celebrator, Muslim, Hindu, Buddhist, and — of course — every rival Armstrongist “Sardis and Laodicean” leader limb from limb. The merciful solution from the “elect”? Round them all up and put them in protective custody so the righteous mob doesn’t get to enjoy some well-deserved vengeance. Thus, Cities of Refuge will be established in various locations around the world and will house all of these sinners and protect them from lynchings. All of this, Cox assures us, was God’s clever way of determining who is trustworthy enough to be turned loose unsupervised across the cosmos.
Repentance, the Lord’s Supper, and obsessive feast-keeping outside the gates are, naturally, the non-negotiable core of this “New Covenant” test.
Oh, where to even begin with this galaxy-brained garbage of the highest order?
First, the idea that saved Christians get promoted to literal Elohim status — complete with snazzy titles like Sector Commander and Covering Cherub — is the kind of delirious self-promotion that makes the old pagan emperors blush. The Bible says the saints will reign with Christ (Revelation 20:4-6). It does not say they will morph into a divine host of mini-gods running their own little fiefdoms while God parks His throne on Earth in 3128. That date isn’t in Scripture; it’s straight out of the prophetic fortune cookie factory.
Second, turning the Christian life into a cosmic merit-badge program based on calendar precision is not just wrong — it’s hilariously arrogant. The New Testament laughs this legalism out of the room. Colossians 2:16-17 mocks anyone who would judge others over “a festival or a new moon or a Sabbath,” calling them mere shadows whose substance is Christ. Paul warns in Galatians 4 that obsessing over “days and months and seasons and years” is spiritual slavery. Hebrews 8–10 declares the entire Old Covenant system — calendar, feasts, sacrifices, the works — gloriously obsolete. But sure, Wade, tell us again how missing a New Moon might cost you your shot at universe command. Jesus must have forgotten to mention that part while He was busy saying “It is finished” (John 19:30).
The sheer gall of claiming this calendar cult is the real “test” while the actual gospel of grace through faith (Ephesians 2:8-9) gets demoted to optional reading is peak cult behavior. It’s the same old Pharisee playbook, just with extra sci-fi seasoning.
Then there’s the delightful prediction of the Great Future Lynching, where the enlightened masses will need to be restrained from tearing Trinitarians and Christmas lovers to shreds. How very “love your enemies” (Matthew 5:44) of them. Nothing says “Spirit-filled elect” quite like fantasizing about putting popes and bishops in protective custody to prevent the mob from doing God’s dirty work. Real biblical justice, that.
This entire framework is spiritually toxic on steroids. It breeds smug elitism (“We’re the future Elohim overlords!”), sows hatred toward the body of Christ, and sets people up for crushing disillusionment when 3128 comes and goes with zero cosmic promotions. Worst of all, it hijacks the glorious New Covenant and turns it back into the very bondage Christ died to abolish (Galatians 5:1).
Wade Cox didn’t write biblical theology. He wrote an elaborate works-righteousness pyramid scheme with a side order of apocalyptic revenge fantasy. It has almost nothing to do with the actual New Covenant, the finished work of Christ, or the simple command to repent and believe the gospel (Acts 16:31). But then, lest we forget, his Christ is a created creature.
Christians would do well to run, not walk, away from this nonsense. The real hope of the believer isn’t earning a fancy title in some future Elohim bureaucracy — it’s being forgiven, adopted as God’s child, and enjoying eternal life with Christ by grace alone. Anything else is just sad, deluded, and dangerously misleading.
----------------------
The Satanic plan was to ensure that as few of the elect as possible could enter the First Resurrection and that was to ensure that as few as possible could become the key leaders of the Human sector of the Elohim host and so could be leaders of the entire elohim system, as Morning Stars and Covering Cherubim and Sector Commanders over the universe when God comes here in 3128 to rule the universe, from the Earth (Nos. 180; 187; 174).
Satan was permitted to test mankind with the Fallen Host to determine if mankind could be trusted to keep the Covenant of God (No. 152) and to keep the Law and the Testimony and the Temple Calendar that flowed from the Law (L1). The test was simple. If a person kept the Law and the Testimony and the Temple Calendar that flowed from the Law, then they passed and qualified to become elohim in the First Resurrection (No. 143A and 143E above). If they did not pass to enter that First Resurrection, they failed and they were sent to the Second Resurrection (No. 143B). It was for this reason that the Cities of Refuge (No. 300D) had to be extended over the millennial system, under the Law of God and into the retraining period of the 100 years, or two jubilees, of the Second Resurrection (No. 143B above). Once the Human Host finds out what it is that the Demonic Host and the false religious systems that Satan and the Fallen Host established, the people will seek to kill every person of the Fallen Host and every leader or key figure in the Babylonian religious system that was involved in the Sun and mystery Cults of the Baal system, whether in Trinitarianism, Sunday, Christmas and Easter worship of the Mother Goddess Cult or in Hadithic, Shia and Sufi Islam, Hindu Ancestor Worship, Buddhism, Taoism, Animism and any other religious system. That will also include the Sardis and Laodicean systems of the Churches of God over the last few centuries of this Age (see below). Almost the entire world’s systems have been corrupted everywhere, and mankind will pay dearly for that corruption. Simply put, we will have to place all the beings corrupted by Satan and the Fallen Host and who misled mankind and held any responsible religious office, including the false prophets of Sardis and Laodicea and their officers (see No. 269), into protective custody including all Popes, Cardinals and Bishops of the Trinitarian systems. That is necessary simply to stop mankind from tearing them apart limb from limb. God allowed this as a key test to determine who could be trusted to be diligent and trustworthy enough to follow instructions without supervision. Those that proved trustworthy could then be placed in charge of the Universe without supervision anywhere God decided to send them. The failures of Sardis and Loadicea over the last two centuries is a classic example of the necessity of the Body of Christ to be implicitly faithful and trustworthy continually. The Temple Calendar including the New Moons, Passover and Pentecost and the Feasts of the Seventh Month are intrinsic to that test.
Repentance is central to the test, and keeping the Lord's Supper and the Passover outside of the Gates, along with Pentecost, and Tabernacles, are all key elements of that test. All three feast periods are to be kept outside of our gates. (Deut. Ch 16). Part of the inability of the Sardis and Laodicean systems to repent stems from their bad training and the brainwashing of their people through the false and Satanic systems of this modern age. Sardis and Laodicea emerged from North America in the Nineteenth and Twentieth Centuries. The groundwork had been set by Satan and the Fallen Host in the Churches of God from the Quartodeciman Disputes (No. 277) and the Unitarian Trinitarian Wars (No. 268). Under the Trinitarian system set up from Rome in the Fourth Century CE, Satan set up the Doctrines of Heaven and Hell and based on the earlier doctrine of Reincarnation. We examine that sequence in the paper for the New Moon: Satan's Doctrines of Heaven, Hell and Reincarnation (No. 143F). Using these false doctrines, Satan and the Fallen Host were able to develop it as accepted history that the Triune God ruled the world and they were able to undermine and refute the Bible teachings of the One True God Eloah as the Creator and ruler of the world. They then were able to persecute and suppress the True Doctrines.
