What Is The UCG Afraid Of On Facebook?

The United Church of God cannot stand anyone that thinks differently than they do.  Of course that has been the typical COG stance for generations, at least through the Armstrong version of it.

Several people are reporting that UCG went through and deleted comments by readers on the Good News Facebook page.  The few times I have checked it I have seen friendly conversations by people from differing view points, but that is no longer the case. Now it  is silencing anyone that thinks differently. 

So much for a "new and improved" United Church of God.  Legalistic thuggery still is the game of the day.

Stephen Gilbreath Disfellowships and Marks the Kitchen Family

The silliness in Armstrongism continues to roll on like a freight train with no brakes.  Just when you think the silliness cannot get any sillier along comes Stephen Gilbreath barreling past the station.

Gilbreath has one of the most pathetic COG sites out there today.  Even Bob Thiel, with his crooked bookcases and laptops in front of his face are no match for Gilbreath's incredibly BAD videos.  Gilbreath sits at a small desk and has someone insert video to his side as if he is sitting in a major studio. It's bad beyond measure.
 
Gilbreath claims he was "ordained" by Robert Collins, a COG "minister" who was on his death bed.

Gilbreath seems to think he is an authority on everything that is happening in the world today.  Below you can see a quote from his web site about how his incredible training at Ambassador College helps him counteract the liberalism at the BBC news  From what I have been told he never graduated from the college but took classes.  That is why he states he"attended" Ambassador.

Lest you think I am picking on god's anointed, just check out one of his videos.  At the 9 minute mark he warns all those who ridicule him.  Gilbreath  thinks he speaks with God's authority.  Its one hour of the dumbest speaking you will ever witness.  Fast forward through the video to any location and you will be rewarded.

He cannot remain on topic, jumps around continually, looses his train of thought, keeps looking to his left to his lap top and even has a person read from HWA's book on baptism.  Pathetic!

1) A Nightly News Program is produced that features video clips of the day's current world news related to the Bible and Prophecy.  The initial host for this program who named the program

''Night-Cast .TV,'' was James Robert Collins -- a fifty-year minister of the Philadelphia-era of the Church of God.  After the death of Mr. Collins, the program has been continued by its new host Stephen Lloyd Gilbreath, an initial co-producer of the program.  The program features video of the day's current world news events under a license from the BBC News -- an organization of the British government which is renowned for producing the best in worldwide news coverage.  Any liberal reporting that may exist in the video clips is balanced out by the host's Ambassador College training and continued counsel and guidance from the former director of World Watch.

Now lets get to the Gilbreath/Kitchen flap.

Kitchen caught Gilbreath plagiarizing one of HWA's charts from his book, "Who and What is the Prophetic Beast."  Not only did he plagiarize it, Gilbreath added to it with his own commentary which sent the Kitchens into a frenzy that God's inspired words of HWA had been "corrected" and changed.  According to the Kitchen's HWA never made a mistake theologically.

Gilbreath lashed back and threatened to disfellowship and mark the Kitchen's putting their salvation in jeopardy.  What incensed the Kitchens most of all with Gilbreath is that they were not even apart of Gilbreaths silly "ministry."

Recently, a woman went onto my brothers account and mentioned that Stephen Gilbreath has mentioned us favorably on his "webcast" and was saying he was parallel to Mr. Armstrong's message. We looked into it some, but not like before. God was behind this, because it wouldn't have been revealed like it was if we did do the research beforehand. So he 'assumed" we were on page with him and his fellowship/group. So he befriended us on Facebook, clung to us with flattery, until we confronted him with his edit of "Who and What is the Prophetic Beast?" Chart. He has from that point on twisted and distorted the facts to blur the lines in the eyes of the public. We just said we will not support someone who changes God's Apostle's writings and books. He (like any carnal human would do) take that as a personal attack on him. Now, we have been "Marked" from this group also.

Gilbreath sent several women to post on the Kitchen's Facebook pages.  This did not sit to well with the Kitchen's either.

And to you “infiltrators” that are going on all these forums, sites and chat rooms “Pretending” to agree with God’s “True Believers” and through lies and flatteries (deception), seduce God’s people only to ferret them out and attack and deceive them. To him or her that does this “undercover” work (Behind the veil). Read Ezek 13:17-23. (vs 18) “Thus says the Lord God: “Woe to the women (a good deal of these infiltrators must be women) who sew magic charms on their sleeves (to make themselves appear spiritually attractive, and make veils for the heads of people(something to hide your face or “identity”: (perhaps like on facebook , in other words, they are deceivers!)) of every height to hunt souls! Notice here the purpose of these people “You hunt souls”! They prey on God’s People! 

The only persecution that is going on the Churches of God is coming from within.  The world now sits and laughs at their stupidity.  Those worldly people that have any inkling as to who HWA was, know for certain that even he would be appalled at the comedy club Armstrongism has turned into.

Guess Who Set The Infamous 1975 in Prophecy Date....

 1975 in Prophecy

All of you hate filled miscreants out there that still claim that HWA set the 1975 date, I am here to tell you, YOU ARE WRONG!!!!!!!!  According to Tim Kitchen, Science and Industry set that date, NOT Herb!!!!!

Did Mr. Herbert W Armstrong Set a Date? Did He set the date 1975? Many people took what he wrote in the book "1975 in prophecy" as him setting the date "1975", but is that TRUE? NOTICE these words which will explain WHO made that prediction! IT is in the beginning of the booklet.
"Feverishly, science, technology and industry are working to produce a fantastic, push-button world of leisure by 1975. The emphasis today is on “saving steps.” Everything is to be done for us, by machines. Just push the magic button, and your work will be done automatically."

If you read the Booklet(not many of these accusers have really read it) it explains that SCIENCE and INDUSTRY set the date of 1975! And Mr. Armstrong goes on to explain, IF THAT DATE WAS TRUE, then this is to happen BECAUSE the BIBLE says it will! Is this "setting a date"?

NO!

It is science setting a date. But do they get the blame? No. This is how you know Mr. Herbert W Armstrong was a man of God. They'll attach ANYTHING to discredit God's Chosen.
