Nov. 4 Letter from President Luker United Church of God | November 4, 2010 at 6:53 pm | Tags: president dennis luker letter rebellion |

November 4, 2010

Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,

Out of love and respect for each of you, and because of what Christ has in store for all of us, I write this very important letter to you. Our potential to be in God's family depends on each of us making Christ's nature our very own. Having the mind of Christ in us leads us to yield to Him and serve Him with proper respect and reverence in true humility. His way produces peace and harmony. God has given us His Scriptures to teach us the godly way in which to conduct ourselves.

Sadly, I must state that there is a spirit of rebellion that has been brewing in the United Church of God for some time—but which is now rising to the surface. Some ministers and members have taken it upon themselves to hold meetings to undermine the authority in the governing structure of United, that all of them once endorsed. They are disseminating false information designed to discredit those in authority, and favor others that they desire to have as leaders instead.

Some pastors and elders are defying direct orders, withholding letters, videos and other communications sent from the home office. Instead, they are proliferating information on Web sites where they claim members and ministers can “get the facts.” Please know and understand, these dissident sites have no direct relationship with UCGIA, and have no oversight as to doctrinal review or integrity of information. It has been noted that people who try to give factual information in favor of our Church, are barred from posting the facts or are blocked from these sites. It should be obvious from this that they have an agenda and are not seeking the truth. It is my duty before God and Jesus Christ to inform you of this rebellion with the fervent hope that you do not fall into its trap. Please pray that God will give you His wisdom and discernment.

I hope and pray that discontent has not been sown in your area, and that your congregation and ministry are at peace. However, because it is so easy to spread rumor and accusation, I am writing to the entire Church to warn you in case you hear things that are not supportive of the United Church of God and its duly appointed leadership. The United Church of God was formed to protect the biblical doctrines of the Church, to care for God's people, and to provide peaceful places for us to meet on the Sabbath and God's feasts. We will continue to do this while we preach the gospel, the truly good news of His Kingdom.
I also want to remind you of the official links and Web sites where accurate and uplifting information can be found. These sites are designed to update you on the progress of the work of the Church with the good news of God's blessings in the work He has given us to do. Below are listed just four of the opportunities currently available for information. I encourage everyone to be connected and inspired in support of the work God has given us to do. By entering your e-mail address on these sites you can receive fast notification of late-breaking news and immediate updates on the work of preaching the gospel.
Therefore, in an effort to improve our communications with you, I would appreciate it if you would please share this message with other brethren, especially those who do not have Internet access.

Brethren, spiritual wolves are in our midst, and this now-open rebellion on the part of some demonstrates this fact. But even in the midst of a crisis created by some, we know with surety that our Elder Brother, Jesus Christ, is firmly at the Head of His Church. He knows our hearts, and He knows more about this situation than any of us could as human beings.

In His final prayer before His crucifixion, Jesus Himself prayed not once, but twice for protection that God would shield His Church “from the evil one” (John 17:15). Brethren, as a long-time minister and brother to you in the faith, I ask that you now urgently join with us in prayer and fasting to claim that promise of divine protection for the Church of God.

We have the confidence that God and Christ will protect and deliver us! Through faith, let us exercise that confidence and place this matter in God's hands as we all move forward.
Sincerely, in Christ’s service,
Dennis Luker

COG7 Day, Killing Pigs in the Tribulation and UCG Crisis

The Flickering Candle blog (Shining Light) is INCREDULOUS!  Let me repeat that again, INCREDULOUS!

They write:

According to The Bible Advocate, the COG 7th Day is now permitting work on Sabbath as long as it does not interfere with attendance at Sabbath services. How long will it take before Sabbath services are scheduled around members employment schedules?  For explanations and links concerning this departure into the foggy realm of situation ethics and the abandonment of the Word of God; read on!

Those demonic imbeciles!  How dare they say a person could work on Saturday!  Heretics!  Apostates! Losers!

Oh wait!  These are the same folk that the Armstrongites have always spit and snarled at as the 'Sardis era"  those lukewarm pantywaists.  So now they are all concerned about COG7th Day????????????

The various Armstrongite splinter cults are running scared  these days.  More and more people are waking up to the fact that Armstrongism and it's myriad of biblical interpretations are morally and intellectually bankrupt.  Their control over the membership is slipping away.  That's why you see them all screeching about GOVERNMENT in all their articles and writings.  "Submit" "You are under authority!"

Then the absurdities on the Flickering Candle get even crazier!

In Ottawa in 1976 I attended a meeting of the WCG Spokesman Club where the question was asked: if you were in the tribulation and you and your family were starving; and a pig ran into your house: would it be alright to kill it and eat it?
I was shocked to hear nearly all the men, including the minister John Adams say, YES.  The carnal reasoning’s and justifications were eye opening.
Their argument went like this.

1. God is a God of love; he would not want you to starve.
2. The law of the unclean is only physical and not really important

 These people did not even address the fact that they would be in the tribulation for a reason; that reason would be lukewarmness and a lack of zeal for God’s commandments, Rev 3.

Given that kind of sick logic theses same idiots would have turned in Jews that might have been hidden in their homes during WWII.  You can be guaranteed these Armstrongites would have turned in the Jews when the Germans came knocking at their doors.  In their warped thinking it is better to kill a Jew than to to tell a lie that will save a life.

They then go on to blame Satan for the pig being sent to feed your family.  They claim God would NEVER send a filthy, disgusting, unclean swine to save your family from death.  Only Satan would do such a thing to save your family.  Talk about IDIOTS!

If God wanted to give you food he would give you something that he had declared to be lawful!  Something not lawful would NOT be coming from God: Since this “food” would NOT be lawful; it would NOT be from God; and would be a TEST to see if we had learned our lesson yet.

All this talk about piggies, dying families, and working to feed your family on the 'sabbath', is all leading up to the current UCG Crisis:

United is about to rule on the matter of a little work on Sabbath compromising with God’s law to make life easier for the brethren.  The Church of God 7^th Day is already doing so!  Please read page seven of the latest Bible Advocate. To enlarge click the text.  These new changes are being  justified because of economic distress. When one’s love for God has cooled; an excuse to turn away can always be found!  If not the economy, something else will be found!

Then they resort to the typical fear mongering of all Armstrongite letters writers.

Will you trade it for a mouthful of filth; or a few dollars worth of employment? (for eternal life?)

Grumpy people!

Iraq Christians Murdered

WARNING:  Graphic pictures of the men, women and children murdered while in church by Muslim terrorists this past week.

An Iraqi Christian wrote to the web site that posted these saying:

"Take a look at what the Muslims doing to the Christian in Iraq everyday. Over 80 people were beheaded in a single day during a Sunday mass. The youngest one were a 4 months old baby that was beheaded front of her parents and throw the head at her mom."
