Bob Thiel Flails Away In Jerusalem



Dude! STOP flapping those arms around!  You jerk around in such dramatic gestures that we wonder if you have Tourettes Syndrome. 

Your videos continue to be a comic fest.

Brian Orchard Continues To Hone His Skills In Destroying Another COG.



From a comment on Malm's blog:

Brian Orchard may get an invitation to become the goalie for the Australian national ice hockey team. He has mastered the splits! First, years ago, with a behind-the-scenes campaign that led to WCG Australian Regional Director Dean Wilson being ousted and then Brian and his co-conspirators disciplined, with a split ministry in Australia that took years to heal. Then Brian participated, albeit as part of a larger movement, in the UCG split from WCG. Then Brian honed his skills developed in the Wilson ouster by helping to foment the 1998 Hulme split from UCG , and now Brian is involved in yet another split! He has truly mastered “the splits” and would likely make a great ice hockey goalie!

I remember the underhanded nature of Orchard's split from WCG.  He sat in the SOG 360 apartments for months on end planning the split while still remaining on the payroll of the WCG.  Many looked at Orchard as one of the most unethical ministers in Pasadena.  A man to never be trusted.


Gerald Flurry Faints On Stage During Church



Gerald Flurry has been experiencing health issues as of late.  Numerous people have reported how ill and run down he looks.  Exit and Support is reporting that Flurry fainted during his sermon yesterday:

EDMOND, Okla. (Jan. 4, 2014) — At approximately 2:35 p.m. CST, Philadelphia Church of God Pastor General Gerald Flurry fainted briefly while giving a sermon to the headquarters congregation at Armstrong Auditorium. After awakening from the short fainting spell and being helped from the stage, the pastor general was anointed by his son, Evangelist Stephen Flurry. As he relaxed backstage, his color returned and he was able to catch his breath more easily. Approximately five minutes later, services were concluded with a hymn and closing prayer by Stephen Flurry.

The 78-year old pastor general said he had felt tired and run down earlier in the week, but felt he needed to push through to deliver the sermon, which focused on new revelation from Ezekiel. Pastor Andrew Locher had noticed Mr. Flurry struggled with a weakened voice when taping an episode of the Key of David television program on Wednesday.

Flurry may soon find himself in the same boat as David Hulme is currently experiencing.  Flurry's members are sick of his authoritarian control over their lives.  The Philadelphia Church of God has wrecked families and destroyed friendships over the last few years.  Many look at Flurry and the PCG as similar to the Jim Jones cult.  Flurry has his members constantly whipped into a state of immediate departure to Petra.  Fear runs their lives.
