Dankenbring: "Hell On Earth Is About To Erupt! 2012 – The Return of Quetzalcoatl and the Wrath of Satan"



William Dankenbring, is just one in a long line of false prophets to come out of Armstrongism.  He published several books in the early 1980's that he tried to get church members to read.  Around this same time the Worldwide Church of God disfellowshipped him.  I remember  being in Jekyll Island for the Feast and seeing huge displays of his books in stores.  Of course, there was an announcement that church members were not to buy his books.  Somewhere in a box I still have two of those books I bought the day they told us not to.  They were a waste of money and totally inaccurate.  But heck, it was fun being rebellious back at that time, just like now!

False prophet Willie has written an article about the Mayan calendar and how it may all come to a completion at the end of this year.  Keep in mind one of his "go to" sources is WorldNetDaily, which is considered by many Armstrongites to be on par with Biblical teachings.

The year 2012-2013 looks to be a “humdinger” of a year
of mounting world troubles, government collapses, war and destruction on a global scale. Why? What is going on? What does Bible prophecy say about it? How do ancient Mayan prophecies and the calendar help explain the mystery and holocaust facing the nations today?

Despite not having telescopes, the Mayan people of Central America were extremely accurate observers of celestial movements, with the zenith of their civilization occurring between A.D. 250 and 900. The year 2012 has been foretold to be a very pivotal year, but not just in the Bible. According to Don Alehendro, an elder of the Mayas, December 20, 2012, mother earth will pass inside the center of a magnetic axis and a great cloud will darken it for 60-70 hours but it will pass. But when it does, he said that there will be great and serious events, such as earthquakes, tsunamis, floods, volcanic
eruptions, and great illness on planet earth with few survivors left.

The final day of the Mayan calendar ends on December 21, 2012, and Mayans consider this date as the end of time and possibly the end of the world at which point human history could come to a close. The period just prior to this is called the time of trial—Judgment Day and the time of great purification. It is also a day where tumultuous
changes are expected to take place. In their concept of cycles, one is called the precession that we call the precession of the Equinox. It is a 26,000 year period through which the earth transits through each one of the twelve signs of the Zodiac.

Dankenbring also looks to Chinese and Jewish predictions:

Horn says 38 years ago, when scientists Terrence and Dennis McKenna created a
stock-market-like linear graph based on the “I-Ching,” the timeline abruptly plunged off the graph into infinity on precisely Dec. 21, 2012.

“This finding is all the more astonishing given that McKenna's research was
published in 1973 independent of any knowledge of the ending date in the Mayan
calendar,” Horn declared.

Meanwhile, the Zohar, a collection of books in the mystical Jewish Kabbalah that first debuted in Spain in the 13th century, talks about the coming of the Messiah at the same general time the other calendars forecast the end.
It predicts in late 2012, “All the kings of the world will assemble in the great city of Rome, and the Holy One will shower on them fire and hail and meteoric stones until they are all destroyed, with the exception of those who will not yet have arrived there. These will commence anew to make other wars. From that time the Mashiach (Messiah) will begin to declare himself, and round him there will be gathered many nations and many hosts from the uttermost ends of the Earth.”

Next.....he jumps into stupid conspiracy theories which seem to occupy the minds of most legalistic Armstrongites.

What's perhaps most fascinating is Horn's discussion of what could be the mother of all conspiracy theories, dating back to the Bible's Book of Genesis, involving Noah's great grandson Nimrod, who not only built the famous Tower of Babel, but is the “mighty hunter” who scholars believe became worshipped as the sun god, with names such as Osiris in Egypt and Apollo in Greece.

Horn says from deepest antiquity, a plot involving pagan sun-worshippers, America's Founding Fathers, Masons and Freemasons has apparently been in the works, culminating in the end time with the return or resurrection of an evil, supernatural being. That character may actually be pictured as the all-seeing eye on top of the uncapped pyramid on the Great Seal of the United States, found on the back of a $1 bill.

Then he hyperventilates over the Mayan calendar:

According to the Mayan calendar, we are living in the Mayan “end times.” The Great Cycle of the Mayan Long Count calendar ends at the winter solstice in 2012 A.D., just literally a few MONTHS from now!!!

Now he is quoting Archbishop Ussher and his calendar dating.  My mother gave me that junk when I went to Junior High School.  I guess it was to counteract all those evil evolutionists who claimed the earth was older than 6,000 years. 

According to Archbishop Usher’s chronology, Adam and Eve were created in 4,004 B.C. Adam and Eve disobeyed God (sinned and cut themselves off from God) in the Garden of Eden exactly seven years after they were created according to the book of Jubilees which would be year 3,997 B.C.

According to ancient Biblical interpretation, God has given mankind 6,000 years to live on the earth, before the Kingdom of God will arrive – a thousand years for each of the six days of creation (see II Peter 3:8-10). Our article, “Does God Have a 6,000 Year Plan?” goes into this subject thoroughly.

If we count 6,000 years from 4004 B.C. we come to 1997 A.D If we count from 3997 B.C., the year of the transgression, then we come to 2004 A.D. But a strange prophecy in Isaiah 38 seems to indicate that God has given the world an extra “fifteen years” before His day of judgment will arrive! This is based on the 15 additional years God gave king Hezekiah to live, after notifying him he would die (Isaiah 38). See our article, “Is God Adding 15 Years Till the Coming of the Messiah?” . Counting from Creation in 4,004 B.C., the year 2012 is fifteen years from 1997. Is this then, a year of transition, beginning the transition to the end of this age and the world of tomorrow?

If the Isaiah 38 prophecy about Hezekiah’s added fifteen years refers is based on the 6,000 year period which started from the year of Adam and Eve’s transgression in 3997 B.C., then 15 years added to 2004 A.D. would bring us to 2019 A.D. – exactly seven years from now!

This would make Daniel’s seventieth week, or the final week of years of this age, to be from 2012 to 2019! This means the final Great Tribulation is scheduled to begin THIS VERY YEAR! This year is very likely the beginning of Daniel’s 70th week prophecy!

Fifteen years added to 2004 A. D. will be the year 2018-2019 depending whether we count inclusively or exclusively. If 2012 begins the 70th week of Daniel, the seventh inclusive year will be 2018 (beginning with 2012 as year 1). Counting exclusively, the first year of the count would be 2013 and the seventh year would be 2019

Then Willie jumps back to the year 2012.  According to the Maya this is the year that the serpent Quetzalcoatl  returns to earth.  In Church of God speak this is satan returning to earth.  Which is odd, considering that COGers believe satan is the god of this world and is actively at work in it.  But now he is returning to wreck havoc.  I wish they would make their minds up!

The apostle John tells us, “And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world; he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him”
(Revelation 12:9). So the devil is a dragon god and a serpent. According to the Mayan prophets, the return of their dragon god, prince of the air would be in the year 2012 when the Mayan calendar ended.

When satan returns he is going to be PISSED!  Really, really PISSED!  He is sooooooooooooooo pissed he is going to use Muslims to do his dirty work. At least according to prophet Willie.  I wish these COGger prophets would get their stories straight.  One minute it is the Russians after us, then it is the Chinese, then it is the Germans, then it is the King of the South, then it is Muslims, then it is the Pope's armies.  It gets exhausting trying to save one's butt from all of this!

Revelation 12:12—“Therefore rejoice, you heavens, and you that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea for the devil is come down unto you having great wrath, because he knows that he has but a short time. And when the dragon saw that he was cast unto the earth, he persecuted the woman (church) which brought forth the man child (Jesus Christ).” Christ was born to the Jews of a Jewish family, Joseph and Mary. When the Devil is cast down to earth he is going to intensify persecution against Christians and Jews using the Muslim religion to foment and focus on persecution to the death.

When Satan is cast down to this earth, or when Quetzalcoatl returns, there will be “hell to pay” on the earth!

But not to worry!  You will be whisked off to the place of safety!  Get those Petra packs ready, again.....

God’s people will need special protection from the wrath of the serpent. Revelation 12:14 – “To the woman [the church] were given two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into the wilderness, into her place, where she is nourished for a time, and times, and half a time (3 ½ years), from the face of the serpent.”

Notice! Those who are faithful of God’s church will be spared and taken to a place of safety in the wilderness, not in heaven as mainstream Christianity teaches. They will be protected in a wilderness area that God has prepared on the earth.

Hell on earth is about to erupt! We have been warned! God means what He says! And says exactly, precisely what He means to do!
God Himself will be full of wrath and fury because of the sin, wickedness, destructiveness and violence in the earth today.

I have always been amazed at how Armstrongites want their god to be this vengeful angry god who is just itching to wipe humanity off the face of the earth...except for about 50-60,000 true Church of God members.  They seem absolutely giddy at times at the prospect of famines, wars, and violence.  They want it to happen in order to make themselves feel special and set apart.  God would be more merciful to let people die during such famines and wars than to let them live 3 1/2 years of tyranny in Petra.  That would literally be hell on earth!

Is It Wrong To Send Apostle Malm Second and Third Tithe Money?



A Malmite asks:

Is is okay to use tithes other than first tithe to your blog? For instance, I wanted to know if I can start sending my third tithe to the Shining Light blog. Please explain as I am sure others also wonder about this.


The apostate apostle responds:



The first tithe is for the preaching of the Gospel. As that is what I do, first tithe and offerings are gratefully accepted to help with this effort. That is God’s money and should not be given to those NOT preaching the true gospel that Christ commanded us to preach, just because they are incorporated in some state.

My credentials are not from some government of man but from God; You must judge for yourself if I or anyone else teaches the true doctrine of God, or not; and act acccordingly.


The third tithe is for the very poor and needy; I do not have the means to organize a poor fund at this time. If you do not want to give that to any organization at this time I suggest that you look around for others to help on a personal basis, or that you save it up for a few months.


I expect that certain things will come to a head around the Fall Feast and that there will be needy folks among those who make a decision for God. There are a number of good elders and hundreds of people who will be taking a decision when the full fruits of these things are made evident.


Things are moving quickly and will be made manifest in the coming months, those faithful folks will then coalesce together. This situation will not last too much longer. James

Apostate Malm is SICK of all the Love Talk!






Today, apostate apostle Malm is ripping into Roy Holiday for the sermon he gave last Saturday.  Malm seems incredibly ticked that the rest of the world does not believe or preach the things he expects them to.

Here are some of Roy's sins, according to the apostate apostle.

Roy never gets around to detailing how the saints are to assist Christ other than to just love others.
No definition of love is given, no requirements are listed other than being “called of God” and not giving up till the resurrection. 
What definition does Malm want  "love" to entail?  Is there some hidden meaning that only "true" Armstrongites know about?  All Christians know what "love" means in the context of Christianity, I am surprised that Malm does not. Malm expects love to be wielding a cat-of-nine-tails ready to beat the living day lights out of grievous, rebellious sinners.  That is the "love" he wants to dish out.

He does not even mention the fact that we are called to repent and reject all sin and to begin keeping ALL of God’s commandments with enthusiasm; and that we must continue overcoming all commandment breaking while enduring to the end of our lives; and that salvation is by no means guaranteed to those who are called, only those who overcome sin...

Then apostate Malm resorts to one of Armstrongisms' favorite broadsides:

God is allowing this general apostasy for a reason.  God is TESTING his people!
Having lived through 45 years of the silliness of Armstrongism, that is all I ever heard.  70 some years down the pipeline and God still cannot figure out who his followers are and has to "test" them with all kinds of trials and tribulations.  Apostate Malm's god sure is a wimpy icky-poo god!

God’s blessings typified by the Daily Sacrifice are about to be withdrawn, and we are about to be spewed OUT of the body of Christ as lukewarm polluted water; into the correction of great tribulation that this man of sin will bring.

There seems to be no pleasing apostate Malm's god.  What is the use in even trying?

Brethren we are being TESTED with a great testing;  our love and fidelity for God, are being PROVEN by our God!  he needs to KNOW who he can trust to be faithful to him for all eternity; BEFORE he will grant authority to them in his kingdom!

Your crowns, the very birthright of your calling are at risk:  Will your love for your espoused Husband and his Father be proven true; or will you love some man or organization more than you love the commandments of our Great God?

Will you sell the birthright of your calling for the bowl of pottage of remaining in some social club for a few more months?  Or will you value your calling to the ways of God and fight the good fight for your salvation?

Apparently all of you COG buffoons out there that still attend in your respective COG's are a bunch of imbeciles.  When are you going to wake up and join the ONLY church preaching the law on earth today?  The apostate apostle sure seems eager to get his splinter cult off the ground and legitimized. Feast site, here they come!

An interesting part of Roy Holladay’s sermon were the translations used and references cited.  Virtually all of the Bible helps, translations, and references he used were written by unconverted men and as a result have faults of which the converted need to be aware.

Why are they even using a Bible, if unconverted men have had their hands on all Bibles?  Does not apostate Malm even know that the various church councils fought bitterly over what was going to be included?  Does he now know that many did not want certain books included, particularly Revelation?  I particularly enjoy the fact that apostate Malm is a KJV only dude, and that version was sponsored by gay King James!  Oh the irony!  On a side note, Craig White is on a campaign now to disprove that knowledge saying that it is all a conspiracy by unbelievers to further discredit the Bible.  King James was one macho dude and only macho dudes could have been inspired to compile the Bible in God's native tongue.

When you finish reading apostate Malm's screed you realize that he had nothing really of value to say about Roy's sermon.  Other than being upset over Roy's emphasis on love, talking about the Holy Spirit, and his use of non-KJV Bible, was all Malm can find.
