He changed his tune a few years later when she came back around and asked him to remarry her. He was so eager to take her back, that he even attended her Sunday Baptist church in order to encourage and woo her. <br /><br />If an ordinary deacon or elder had been seen worshipping in a Sunday-keeping church, he would have been thrown out of the LCG ministry. Apparently the standard is different when you are the head of the LCG ministry. <br /><br />One benefit of the reconciliation and remarriage, though, was that Winnail has toned down his insane rantings against women.

When he got the CAD job, his first action was to accuse Charles Bryce of being an agent of Satan. To recap, in 2006, after Bryce wrote a private letter to LCG HQ questioning some doctrines, LCG immediately distributed this private letter to all its elders along with LCG's rebuttal. LCG then promptly disfellowshipped and fired Bryce. A member letter from Winnail a couple days later accused Satan of attacking the church. All Bryce did was write a private letter. He never said or did anything more. The reality is that it was RCM & Winnail that caused the LCG problems. If Satan was attacking the church, it was via Meredith and Winnail.NO2RCMnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-226103369043606765.post-26201208510566592962013-06-15T23:43:58.069-07:002013-06-15T23:43:58.069-07:00ROTFLMAO!!!!!

They don't have to worry about being beaten, mocked, slammed, spat on, declothed, debearded, or dismembered in whatever town they are going to. They don't have to worry about sitting in a court explaining their religion, or a king. They don't have to worry about being whipped, clubbed, cracked on the head, or even crucified. Upside down. Like those who REALLY suffered crucifixion had to. NONE of these things will happen to these people in their lifetime. Persecution? HA. <br /><br />No, all they have to worry about is some good and detailed information getting out that would show them to be a little different then the image they aim to project. All they have to worry about is damage control or rumors. And then sitting in their nicem comfortable office chairs with full access to heat, water, power, water coolers, internet, computers, getting their money from the people THEY are suppossed to serve, in their nice comfortable suits.<br /><br />Sure, Persecution! WHATEVER. <br /><br />They haven't a clue.<br /><br /><br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-226103369043606765.post-87732702966724399162013-06-15T21:20:17.528-07:002013-06-15T21:20:17.528-07:00ha ha ha ha ha ha ha !!! ha ha ha ha ha ha ha !!!

It's a lot more economically efficient that way, and we get to have much more evil for the same money that way. I can't think of a better arrangement.<br /><br />I am equally sure that where ever god's work is, that people there are rising up and attacking it. Although the COG's aren't god's work, that doesn't mean that where ever it is, somebody's attacking it.<br /><br />This god fellow, he sure needs a lot of help. He could never get his work done without an army of people to do it for him. The last thing he needs is other people getting in the way and generally making themselves a botherment.<br /><br />If any of us discover where god's work is, or encounter any people who are criticizing it, I am sure everyone here will do his or her part to put a stop to it.<br /><br />And now, it's time to continue the work of criticizing the silly efforts of some of the most arrogant, conceited, self-important, aggrandizing S.O.B.s on the planet as they sully Jesus' good name. Even if he wasn't a real person, I still like what he said.Head Ushernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-226103369043606765.post-64096187699361775462013-06-15T20:40:37.569-07:002013-06-15T20:40:37.569-07:00The Bereans must have been some serious agents of ...The Bereans must have been some serious agents of Satan...RSKnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-226103369043606765.post-19349687261934755592013-06-15T20:15:05.554-07:002013-06-15T20:15:05.554-07:00In Armstrongism, there is no such thing as "c...In Armstrongism, there is no such thing as "constructive" criticism of doctrine, church policy, or the ministry. Any attempt at that, regardless of Intention or sincerity, automatically falls into the category of "rebellion" and is considered to have been inspired by Satan. <br /><br />Over the years, I've noticed that senior management of the ACOGs generally will elevate lower actions in their perceived hierarchy of sin to the most serious level. This exaggeration causes more fear of the so-called authority of the ministry. When they also exaggerate the titles of their ministers, like to apostle or prophet, lesser sins or just plain simple questions become absolutely devastating.<br /><br />BBByker Bobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15602697337552385535noreply@blogger.com
