PCG Ministurd: "I've come to whip all you into shape..."

Training Future Church "Leaders" To Be Asses

From a reader:

Here's a story...I was contacted by a friend of mine in Washington State a while back. She was upset because a certain favorite minister there was being replaced by another minister. She told me that the replacement minister had announced that,"I've come to whip all you into shape. Your all Laodiceans!" This minister was so obnoxious and vain, he was coming up with so many insane ideas. My friend told me this minister was training the congregation on how to make a "perfect pot of coffee" because only Jesus Christ would accept THIS MINISTERS perfect pot of coffee. This man and his wife have a daughter in Imperial Academy. The daughter was caught cheating, (because her mother or someone was giving her the answers online), but they were not suspended or disfellowshipped. The teacher was reprimanded though for accusing the girl of cheating. This minister has several children that have graduated from Armstrong College and this family has a prosperous family business that helps fund the Philadelphia Church of God. The other minister was just "recycled" and sent to headquarters. People not found contributing to the "pot" are out! What is that scripture/scriptures?: James 2:2, Acts 10:34, etc. It's all about money with this cult!

Banks Refusing To Loan Money To Dave Pack

Silenced is reporting in it's article Delusions of the Pack that Dave Pack has failed to secure funding of his mini-me monument to himself.

According to sources who wish to remain anonymous, Pack has revised the start date for construction on his personal shrine. He cannot borrow additional funds from the bank for the project, resulting in a renewed grovelling for member donations. RCG tried to borrow about 50 percent of it’s required funding, and now that the cult can’t get financing, Pack insists he never borrows money.

We have come to the spring of the year when the first two of the seven annual Holy Day offerings arrive. I do not need to tell all of you veteran members how important are these yearly “spikes” in our income. In what we have been describing as our “austerity year,” because we must (and are able to) pay for the entire building project cash-the banks are terrified of lending to any but their most established borrowers, and we never borrow anything-these Holy Day offerings become more crucial than ever. We can all understand why. Please go to God, at least once if not more, before preparing each of your Holy Day offerings. Consider making the decision on your knees. Ask God to give you the FAITH and the COURAGE-and the VISION of the world as it is and the great need to reach it with Christ’s “kingdom of God” announcement and the “Ezekiel warning” to the nations of Israel-before settling on a “number.”

Since he has failed to secure funding will he be able to open his completed campus in one year in April of 2013?  Has he told another lie or will gullible members mortgage their homes and businesses to fund this abomination?

Apostle Malm Health Crisis

Apostle Malm updates his health condition: 

As far as editing is concerned, please remember that I am in an advanced stage of diabetes with serious eye problems; I have no help on this effort and I am now reaching the point where I am almost too blind to do this work at all; and I do not get enough support to hire an editor or secretary. Those who complain should maybe think about helping out?
For everyone’s infomation I have just begun to take certain suplements that may help reduce the retinal bleeding and cornea swelling; hopefully improving my syesight; this will take several months if it works. The prayers of the brethren are much appreciated. james

While I wish him a speedy recovery, I wonder how much of what he is going through is because of negligence.  COG history proves that some people refuse to get proper medical health thinking that they can pray it away or an anointed cloth will do the trick.  I  hope this is not the case, but.....
