Richard Armstrong on "One of the cutest things I've ever seen"




I remember hearing sermon after sermon about what a spiritual giant Richard was and that if he had not died because a car accident [because his own father had refused medical treatment that would have saved his life] he would have been the COG's greatest leader.  GTA was  known early on to be a rebel while Richard was a "stalwart in the faith."

Richard apparently had a lot of issues in his life given some of the sermons he is on record as giving.

Here is a quote that Richard Armstrong gave in one of those sermons.  This just goes to show that Richard was as big a spiritual degenerate as his father was. Here is a man who claims to represent God, yet takes great delight in child abuse.  Even worse is the church members sit there and chortle at the story.  The brainwashing was complete.

Here is this sick little anecdote he relates. Strangely enough, he and the audience, seems to think this is quite amusing. He is describing what one little boy did with his father. Just take a look.

One of the cutest things I've ever seen....And I've seen, and it's fantastic. I've never seen anything like this before. I've seen that boy ... take off his belt, hold it up to him, and say, Daddy, I was supposed to get a spanking this evening. (Audience laughs.) I'm not lying either. That's a fact. I've seen it happen. I've seen him remind his father that he had a spanking coming. I never did that. (Laughter.)

James Malm: A Really Converted Woman Even Covers Her Head While Doing Housework



A Malmite asks:

James, I pray numerous times per day and Iam sure women do also, are they to don the head covering every time they talk to God in a quick prayer? Iam talking about as I go about doing things not on my knees but as I am engaged in an activity like driving or doing a chore or just walking, or sitting down.
The Chief Pharaisee responds:

My mother and most women in past times, always wear a scarf doing housework or a hat outside. I guess we have changed somewhat in our society; but it is certainly very easy to cover the head, and very wise to do so to keep the hair clean from the dust of housework or the barn or car etc.

This is so easy and effortless and was done routinely by our grandparents if not our parents. Paul expressly teaches this point in terms of covering in humility before God. Since we are instructed to do this, it has the authority of a command.

I would think that if there was even the slightest idea that something might please God and it was lawful, everyone would rush to do it. That would be wholehearted zeal to please God.
On the other hand to strongly resist what is an easy, simple, minor and lawful act, commanded in scripture, speaks loudly as to a lack of zeal to please God. James

If the god of Malmism was really worth pleasing it would be one thing to do all of this.  Since the god of Malmism does not exist, why waste one's time?????

James Malm: Men and Women Can Wear Kilts While Praying But Women Must Also Cover Their Heads


A Malmites asks:

Does the head covering need to be worn while praying at home? Also should wearing pants be considered men’s clothing and what about kilts worn by both men and women?

The Chief  Pharisee responds:

Paul does not say that the head covering is exclusively for public use, but when ever praying of prophesying; therefore the covering should be worn while praying and discussing the word of God [prophesying]. Wherever that takes place.

There is nothing wrong with wearing pants designed for women; the issue is trying to appear masculine.

Kilts do not disguise or confuse the gender of the wearer; which is the issue. God wants women to be women and not to try and be men; God also wants men to be men and not to try and be women; That is the issue. As long as the gender is not co0nfused the clothing item matters little. James

Kilts OK, men's Levi's for women NOT OK, 

Is it any wonder why Armstrongism has become such a laughing stock!
