$1,000 A Month Get's You Into This COG Inner Sanctum





Would you really want to join this splinter cult?  Is any COG worth this kind of haranguing and spittle flying?  Nothing surprises me any more as these spiritual deviates continue to come out of the woodwork.  You need to be able  to give 1,000 dollars a month to belong. That is after you have a SKYPE conversation with the ministurd so he can determine if you are qualified and a genuine Armstrongite.


Once more, THE LIVING JESUS CHRIST HAS MOVED TO PUT HIS CHURCH BACK ON HIS TRACK! And I know there will be a great blessing arising from this!

Very soon now, I am going to begin work on a new website around our new
domain name, leaving the old website up for the time being during the transition at the old location and url.

I will probably be using Wordpress for this ENTIRELY NEW WEBSITE, and, one of the advantages of using Wordpress is that we can easily create a public
area of the website and a private, member's only area, which is password
protected to each member's password.

Simply put, what this means is that we will now be able to have an "outer
area" of our new website to PREACH THE GOSPEL TO THE WORLD, giving the public the resources they need to repent of their sins and come to God's
way of life.

However, ONLY UPON MEETING CERTAIN CRITERIA WILL THEY BE INVITED TO JOIN THE SPECIAL MEMBER'S ONLY AREA, where we will be archiving Sabbath and Holy Day services and Bible studies, as well as more mature literature for those who have made the commitment of their lives to God and this Work.

So, from that point on, most Bible studies, sermons, meaty articles and
booklets, etc., will be accessible to our MEMBERS ONLY, as IT SHOULD BE,
while leaving the preaching of the Gospel in the public part of the website.

FINALLY, THE LIVING JESUS CHRIST IS MOVING SWIFTLY NOW TO PUT HIS CHURCH TOTALLY BACK ON HIS TRACK, RE-INSTITUTING MANY WISE DECISIONS MR. ARMSTRONG MADE IN THE PAST!

For those of you who are presently giving tithes and offerings to this Work, you will be automatically issued with your website member's password to access the member's area, which will include services and Bible studies.

If you ARE NOT A CONTRIBUTOR TO THIS WORK, THAT PROVES THAT YOU LACK COMMITMENT TO THIS WORK, AND REFUSE TO HELP US TO GROW AND PROSPER.

Frankly, this is NOT a Godly attitude, and shows that you lack the vision
to see where God is working, and are not willing to contribute to the
preaching of the Gospel and the maintenance of the church and Work, and
therefore you SHOULD NOT HAVE ACCESS TO THE MEATIER MATERIALS THAT ARE RESERVED FOR THOSE WHO ARE MEMBERS AND THEREFORE COMMITTED TO THIS WORK OF GOD!

So, UNLESS you are a regular contributor to this Work, YOU WILL NO LONG3R HAVE ACCESS TO BIBLE STUDIES, SERMONS, AND SERVICES OF A MEATIER NATURE, but you will still have access to the more general Gospel message until you reach the point where you would like to commit yourself to this Work.

However, MONEY WILL NOT BUY YOUR WAY IN EITHER, as, over the years, there were many co-workers who sent in offerings but still did not yet attend church for one reason or another.

What this means is that for ALL NEW PEOPLE, ONCE THIS POLICY IS PUT INTO PLACE, I WILL NEED TO HAVE AT LEAST ONE PERSONAL COUNSELING SESSION WITH YOU VIA PHONE OR SKYPE BEFORE YOU ARE INVITED TO ATTEND OUR VIRTUAL CHURCH, just as in the old days the local minister had to visit your home at least once before giving you details so that you could attend church.

Frankly, this policy has worked well for the church over the years, but, as it began to break down because CERTAIN MEN THOUGHT THEY HAD A BETTER
IDEA ON HOW TO CONDUCT THE WORK THAN MR. ARMSTRONG DID, the church began its long slide into a Laodicean attitude and condition.

WE ARE DETERMINED TO BRING BACK THE ZEAL OF THE EARLY CHURCH, and, as such, we need to be fellowshipping with OTHER CONVERTED PEOPLE ON A REGULAR BASIS, WITHOUT HAVING WORLDLY PEOPLE MIXED IN TO MAKE A DISTRACTION.

Also, we need to begin receiving AT LEAST $1000 per month to make this
Work expand and prosper, and if we don't get to this very small amount
really soon, we may have to make drastic cuts in the websites and other
services within a short period of time.

Now I eagerly await the hell fire and brimstone that this ministurd will call down upon me. Death and destruction await me in the next week or so.  If we have a huge earthquake in Southern CA next week you will know I was the cause of it..........................

God is Ready to Send His Death Angels Out on the Highways and Byways



You rebellious back sliding Laodiceans in the Church of God  had better heed this Feast sermon, otherwise God is going to be really, really pissed and track you down!

Oops, the Feast is over and God did not track anyone down.  So we have another failure for a minister.  Another false prophet.  Another liar.

Brethren, we stand right now at a major crossroads in the Work of God.
God is giving the Laodiceans ONE FINAL CHANCE TO REPENT of their ways, OR, God will be sending out His angels into the highways and byways to find those who will eat of His Spiritual Feast and will ACTUALLY DO WHAT HE SAYS instead of simply paying lipservice to it while going about their own
personal business like the sinners of this evil world!

What good does it do to HEAR ABOUT GOD'S KINGDOM IF YOU AREN'T GOING TO BE THERE?

Today I discuss the greatness and grandeur of God's Kingdom, and give His
people a stern warning that if they want to be there they had better repent.

I'm sorry, brethren, that this is not a "feel good" message. Rather, it hits you straight between the eyes and tells you what you NEED TO HEAR RIGHT NOW!

With ever escalating curses descending upon our nations like a waterfall, DO YOU WANT TO SUFFER THE SAME FATE AS THE PEOPLE OF THIS WORLD, OR DO YOU WANT GOD'S PROTECTION, AND, MORE IMPORTANTLY, DO YOU WANT TO BE A KING AND A PRIEST IN THE WORLD TOMORROW? OR, WOULD YOU RATHER BE THRUST OUT WHERE THERE IS WEEPING AND GNASHING OF TEETH?

God sets before His people today life and death, blessing and cursing, and HE COMMANDS YOU TO CHOOSE LIFE -- but, WILL YOU?

God is sick and tired of the Laodicean attitude most of you are in. He is not going to wait on you any longer or listen to your lame excuses. He is angry and if you have not repented by the time this Feast is over, I see EVERY INDICATION THAT HE WILL SEND HIS ANGELS OUT INTO THE WORLD TO BRING
PEOPLE INTO THE CHURCH WHO WILL LISTEN AND WHO WILL TAKE HEED AND WHO WILL TAKE ACTION.

Don't you just love it when these egotistical fools spit, shout and use all CAPS!  I can just see the spittle flying as those jowls shake!

The crackpot goes on:

IF YOU WILL NOT REPENT, I AM HERE TO TELL YOU TODAY THAT HE WILL SOON TURN HIS BACK ON YOU AND BUILD HIS CHURCH WITH ALL NEW PEOPLE IF HE HAS TO.
Then after all the jowl flapping,  pissed off Pastor John lovingly closes with this:

I pray that you have a spiritually uplifting and rewarding Feast and that
you will be there with us in God's soon coming Kingdom.

John

God Created The Internet for the Church of God's "gospel" Message



I bet Al Gore is really pissed at hearing that God is the one who created the Internet!  God created it expressly for spreading the gospel.

Never mind that HWA and Meredith used to crow that the printing press was designed by God expressly for HWA's message and that airplanes were designed expressly for the  gospel message to  be taken to world leaders.  Those are all passe and useless now that God has invented the Internet.





1,900 years of darkness and gloom as the gospel was lost somewhere in the world waiting to be found by HWA in Oregon.  You would think God could keep better track of his important things like "the Gospel."  Just sayin......I can lose my car keys rather easily, but lose the Gospel?

Yes, the Internet has proven to be a valuable tool.  But not necessarily like the originators thought it would be used.  Instead of rapid distribution of scientific knowledge and is now the greatest source of porn in the universe.  Yep, God's Internet is used more for porn viewing that anything else.  LCG members look at it, PCG members look at it, and COG members as a whole look at porn just as often as the rest of humanity does.  Why else would that coworker at LCG HQ get red in the face as you enter his office. You notice that rapid hand movement as he clicks on a new screen. 50 cents he was not reading Rod's latest sermon!



Anyway, back to the importance of God's creative juices that were used to create the Internet.

Here is how one COG cult  preacher views it all:

Internet the most spectacular door ever opened for the Gospel!

And I want to jump ahead here just a moment and point out that Jesus Christ has now opened what I consider to be the greatest, most spectacular opportunity for fulfilling our commission since the
flood!
And that is the Internet!!! The Internet is the most gigantic door
ever made available to mankind for the preaching of the Gospel! Its
power is mind-bogglinng! Let me say here that I believe God is
absolutely 100% intimately involved with every last infinitessimal
detail of His creation, and THE INTERNET IS NOT AN ACCIDENT!! It is a communications medium which was planned for and placed here by God at this end time for the express purpose of preaching the Gospel! It is a bona-fide miracle!

It's free and no man can shut it!

There has never been a medium like this. First of all, it drops in
our lap the prospect of FREE worldwide publishing! Right now this article has the potential to reach an estimated fifty million people online worldwide! And there is no cost of advertizing! There is no
astronomical bill for radio or television time! There are no printing
costs! There are no postage fees! I say it again, it is a miracle!!

God created the Internet for the Gospel

I am absolutely convinced that this is a massive door that Jesus
Christ has swung open on an unsuspecting world to get His final
warning message out to a suicidal planet!! And if Jesus Himself has
unlocked this door, then NO MAN CAN SHUT IT!! It will only be shut when Jesus Himself decides to shut it, and then no man will be able to open it!! So we can look to the Philadelphian letter and take courage in the fact that it is God Himself who has opened this door! No man can shut it on us, so we can walk through it with courage and confidence!

Isn't this great to know?  I think the truth of the matter is, that God created the Church of God for our entertainment purposes and nothing more!  :
