Welcome to the Feast of Tabernacles 2017


For decades the Church of God put out well edited and manicured video productions that were designed to inspire the members to give even more money to support the "work."  Those days quickly drew to an end with the death of Herbert Armstrong and the dismantling of the church.  

Never fear though, numerous self-appointed upstarts started producing their own videos.  Some of them were just as slick in their brainwashing methods as the early days of Feast films.  

And then there is this...

Church of God Zealot Releases Another Prophetic End Time Timeline


Courtesy of the screeching zealot James Malm and his side-kick Constance:

  • The pope could go to the Temple Mount triggering the occupation of Jerusalem and the beginning of the 42 month Great Tribulation, as early as December 2018 or within a year or two  (or three  or four, or five, or six, or seven, or eight, or ten, or fifteen, or twenty, or...) after that; depending on how long it takes to conclude a Middle East peace agreement.  
  • Once the New Federal Europe rises as a political union, the EU will remain in some form as a simple trade organization.   
  • Britain will be leaving the EU in March 2019 and will then be cut off from the coming European prosperity, economically allying with America instead of Europe. 
  • As for America, the Arabs will join with Europe and abandon the Petrodollar while hiring European countries to do the unimaginably massive rebuilding throughout the region. 
  • During the first winter Britain and America will lose economic traction as Europe takes the economic lead and conditions will begin to decline in the USA and her Anglo Saxon brethren,  
  • Then during the first spring/summer as the economy fails, a severe drought will gripe the nation,   
  • Suddenly there will be no money to finance America’s drug habits, its energy, food and medical needs, or anything else,  
  • During the second winter a population weakened by a lack of proper nutrition due to the drought and the inability to import provisions, will be susceptible to epidemic diseases greater than the Spanish Flu and other such disasters
  • The second summer will be worse than the first, and riots over food, race and other issues will set America ablaze. 
  • The third winter will be worse than the second with even greater malnutrition and many more dying.  
  • Then after the sixth seal of Revelation has been opened, the first 144,000 (Rev 7)will be called out; 12,000 from each tribe [the Judeo Anglo Saxon nations] of Israel, to witness that the Eternal is God and if they would only trust and obey him, he would save them.  
  • This 144,000 scattered throughout the nations of Israel will be witnessing as the New Europe goes to attack Asia and the Seven Trumpet Plagues are poured out according to the preaching of God’s Two Witnesses, sometime into the third year.   
  • Then after the third and final winter, God will allow his Two Servants (James Malm and his sidekick wannabe prophetess Constance 0r James Malm and Bob Thiel)  to be killed and then the seventh Trump will begin to sound and these two along with all the chosen, will rise to life eternal as spirit. 
  • This will be seen by all the earth and many Gentile rulers will be angry fearing the loss of their authority and power, but the nations of Israel will remember the preaching of God’s Two Servants (Ron Weinland and Dave Pack) and the preaching and witnessing of the first 144,000, and they will see the plagues and heavenly signs; and they will begin to repent and turn to the Eternal seeking his deliverance.   
  • A few days later after the Wedding Feast in heaven and the pouring out of the seven last bowls of plagues, Christ will come WITH his chosen and will deliver both Israel and all of humanity out of bondage to Satan and sin.  (James and Constance will come riding down on white horses along side their "christ" and start reeducating the world to be zealots) 
  • Then Judah and all Israel will welcome their Deliverer with great rejoicing 
  • This 42 months of famine, riots and economic collapse will be accompanied by other natural disasters, one of the chief being great earthquakes which will be so great as to change the surface topography of the earth.   

When all else fails for Malm, and it will, he can encourage his side-kick prophetess Constance to engage her Wiccan spells and ask her god and goddess to intervene so that Malm is not so embarrassed.

When will all of these Church of "god" fools tear down their prophetic shingles and just shut up?

Worldwide's Lost Chance to Grow Up

In the 1970's Worldwide under Herbert Armstrong had one chance to grow up.  The Systematic Theology Project, under Dr. Robert Kuhn and others, had the potential of bringing WCG into the modern world. Systematic theology is  "a branch of theology concerned with summarizing the doctrinal traditions of a religion (such as Christianity) especially with a view to relating the traditions convincingly to the religion's present-day setting."

 HWA crushed it in his ignorance and arrogance and condemned the WCG and all it's splits, splinters and slivers to a continuation of the ignorance and arrogance we see today in so called theologians such as Dave Pack, Gerald Flurry, Ron Weinland , Robert Thiel and a host of wannabes. None of these men are trained in the rigors of theology and history much less that of good science done well.  And yet they know it all...just ask them

Theirs is the Chaotic Theology Project and it won't end well for any of them. 

Herbert Armstrong, as well as these clones (get it over with...clowns) of his, view themselves only as the source of final truth.  I can not imagine any of them ever sitting down with the great minds of cosmology, physics , paleontology or any other hard scientific discipline and daring to tell these men and women how it all was back in the the garden where  "there were two trees....." If they did they would be met with the derision they deserve and put nicely in their theological, scientific, philosophical  and historical places. 

Dr. Robert Kuhn went on to continue the quest for real answers to real questions in the real world we see around us.  


Kuhn first came to prominence in 1972 when "Why the Vast Difference between Animal Brain and Human Mind?" appeared in The Plain Truth magazine published by Ambassador College, an institution of the Worldwide Church of God (WCG). The WCG's Systematic Theology Project[6] was coordinated by Kuhn, but later banned by WCG Founder Herbert W. Armstrong. Kuhn severed his connection to the WCG and its affiliates, including the Ambassador International Cultural Foundation (classical music concerts, featuring musicians including Vladimir Horowitz and Luciano Pavarotti), which Kuhn had created and managed.
