When I Wish Upon A Star...

Did you ever make a wish when you saw a falling star?  Seems innocent enough, right?  Well.........leave it to an Armstrongite to find something pagan or demonic about it.

We all heard a gazillion times over how those nasty angels of light rebelled against God and were cast out of heaven and down to earth. Yada, yada, yada.  So the logical conclusion for those trained in Armstrongism is to equate the falling stars streaking across the sky at night as fallen angels.  So when you make a wish on a falling star you are wishing on a fallen angel/demon to make it come true.  I kid you not!

Yahoo comment:

I was thinking of something not too long ago, and wondered if anyone else had thought of this.... you know how stars are sometimes used to represent angels in the Bible?  Then there are "fallen" stars...and I wondered about the phrase we used to recite about wishing on a falling star... does that have some pagan origin...or am I just tired and reading too much into it?!!

 I can just hear Dr. Bob Thiel right now:

"We in the TRUE Church of God KNOW that a third of the angels fell from heaven when  they rebelled against God.  We in the Living Church of God know that these fallen angels are now demons.  No true Christian would be allowing their children to make wishes  on stars, nor would adult true Christians do such a thing.  Regular readers here would know that we in the true Church of God know that wishes should actually be prayers and we are to direct our prayers to God alone.  We in the True Church of God do not pray to demons or ask them to influence God."

A "falling star" or a "shooting star" has nothing at all to do with a star! These amazing streaks of light you can sometimes see in the night sky are caused by tiny bits of dust and rock called meteoroids falling into the Earth's atmosphere and burning up. The short-lived trail of light the burning meteoroid produces is called a meteor. Meteors are commonly called falling stars or shooting stars. If any part of the meteoroid survives burning up and actually hits the Earth, that remaining bit is then called a meteorite.

Four Horsemen Are Starting To Ride Faster

Did you know that the Four Horsemen have been riding for quit some time now?  Or should I say loping along. Well, you had better start worrying because LCG had declared the Four Horsemen are starting to ride FASTER!

Prophet Thiel is reporting that the floods in Thailand  may destroy a lot of  the rice harvest resulting in higher rice prices.  In the typical LCG alarmist thinking, there is a reason behind this.  God is unleashing his agents of destruction to humble the world.  The Four Horsemen have been told to gallop faster!

Thai floods may cause global rice shortage

26 October 2011.  Thailand’s flooding has wiped out as much as 14% of paddy fields, drastically reducing the export capacity of the world’s biggest rice exporter and potentially increasing global food prices.

Thai capital warned “massive” water on the way

By Pracha Hariraksapitak BANGKOK (Reuters) – Floods swamped a new area of Thailand’s capital on Wednesday as some shops rationed food and Bangkok’s governor warned of “massive water” on the way that could put many parts of the sprawling city in danger by the end of the week.  http://www.reuters.com/article/2011/10/26/us-thailand-floods-idUSTRE79K2XG20111026

Thiel writes:

Jesus warned that “famines” would be part of the “beginning of sorrows” (Matthew 24:7-8). In the Book of Revelation, food price inflation is predicted with the ride of the third horseman (Revelation 6:6).

Evangelist Richard Ames wrote:

The third seal presents a rider on a black horse, representing the scarcity of food and the resulting famine…Cynics say there have always been wars, famines and pestilences. But, as time goes on, we will see the four horsemen of the apocalypse intensify their ride, with increasing global consequences. (Ames R. The Middle East in Prophecy. Living Church of God, 2006, p. 24)

WE all KNOW that Herbert W Armstrong was Sent From God!

The yahoo's on Yahoo are still bowing down to worship Herbert Armstrong.

Mr. Armstrong Taught that the King of the South was ALREADY Fulfilled! The Only thing left is the King of the North to enter the Glorious Land, and MANY Nations being overthrown! Many Nations IS and HAVE been overthrown. Now there is news of Russia and other eastern Nations joining and becoming a Eur-asian Union. Russia even told its top generals to "Prepare for Armageddon"
http://www.eutimes.net/2011/10/russian-leader-tells-top-generals-prepare-for-arm\
ageddon/. Sounds alot like Tidings from the east and North. Everyone is looking
for the "Push" but Mr. Armstrong clearly stated in his booklet "The Middle East
in Prophecy" that that was "fulfilled" in 1896 by Ethiopia. Mussolini then came
down like a whirlwind and passed over(by planes). Mr. Armstrong also stated that
this pinpointed the Beginning of "The Time of the End", because it says "AT the
time of the end". Now God said he will send The End-Time Elijah during the End
Times to "Prepare the way of the Lord". Mr. Armstrong fulfilled this to the
letter. If God sent Herbert W Armstrong( and YES He did!), then What he taught from the Bible still stands( for he was an Apostle). If he taught falsely, then he was NOT sent from God and wasn't His Chosen Man! Look closely at What Mr. Armstrong taught, and you will see clearer what God has prophesied from the bible. not from other MEN who tries to put themselves in place of Mr. Armstrong, saying they were sent but were NOT! WE all KNOW that Herbert W Armstrong was Sent From God!
