UCG: Still cannot figure out why no one wants to listen to their message

The two words you will NEVER hear a UCG minister or leader say.

United Church of God recently completed their Council of Elders conference.  It is a typical report that the COG is ever so good at putting out,  a regular back-slapper,  as usual.

However, Vic Kubik had this to say about the public reception of their message:

President Kubik concluded his remarks agreeing with Dr. Ward that we are living in troubling times in the world. We see a world that doesn’t want to hear the gospel message, but it still must be preached. The book of Jeremiah is a good example that even when it isn’t popular, we must continue to give the message that God has for us to preach to this world. The time of Jacob’s trouble is approaching and we must be spiritually ready to face those days. We must be doing the work God has called us to do. We have so much to accomplish and it should excite us.

Kubik, and the rest of the COG's are completely out of touch as to why the world does not want to hear their message.  The first indication is that they mention Jeremiah instead of Jesus.  UCG, as well as many other COG's place their emphasis on Old Testament books that fit the end-time malarkey they so desperately need to happen, instead of focusing upon the redemptive qualities of Jesus and the message and example he set.

Plus, in a world that is beset with a multitude of troubles, people are sick of heading into church and having to sit there and be bombarded by more endless streams of troubles ahead with the end time speculative shit that the church loves to continually dish out. What is the point of praising and worshipping God if he is eager to wipe out humanity like the god of Armstrongism is so eager to do?

God forbid if Jesus is discussed.  That might be a new concept that Kubik and the UCG might consider.

Better yet, why don't they all resign and set their people free!

Emmy Award Winning COG Video on the NTBMO.....NOT!!!!!

God's most highly favoured and doubly blessed COG leader has come out with a new video to inspire the kiddies and young adults out there in YouTube land.  As if they are going to watch a 19-minute video about an event that is not required for New Covenant Christians!

This is just as absurd as his hour and a half sermons on multiple topics and even features him sitting in his office chair he uses for his crooked videos.

God is frightening to hear, as are the creepy voices of some of the weird animated characters.  Bubba Moses needs to take Spokesman Club in order to learn how to speak!

Miraculous healings in the WCG?

After talking to Dennis, I decided to see if I could find more information about Howard Clark’s healing, since Rod Meredith used to talk about it regularly as one of the great healing miracles.

From the article below, it looks like Howard Clark was paralyzed. When the “healing” took place, his paralysis was lifted, but then he could feel the tremendous pain of his injury.

While recovering from complete paralysis does happen (there is a book written by a former NFL player who recovered from complete paralysis), one would expect a miraculous healing to be complete – having severe pain does not seem to me to be compatible with divine healing.

It does not appear anyone in WCG or splinters has been given this gift.

If you know otherwise, let us know, and we will make our way to the divine healer with all our incurable ailments.

Acts 3King James Version (KJV)
3 Now Peter and John went up together into the temple at the hour of prayer, being the ninth hour.
² And a certain man lame from his mother's womb was carried, whom they laid dailyat the gate of the temple which is called Beautiful, to ask alms of them that entered into the temple;
³ Who seeing Peter and John about to go into the temple asked an alms.
⁴ And Peter, fastening his eyes upon him with John, said, Look on us.
⁵ And he gave heed unto them, expecting to receive something of them.
⁶ Then Peter said, Silver and gold have I none; but such as I have give I thee: In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth rise up and walk.
⁷ And he took him by the right hand, and lifted him up: and immediately his feet and ankle bones received strength.

If he was laid daily at the gate of the temple, why didn’t Jesus heal him in one of His many visits to the temple?

Like Dennis stated in a post a while back, I want to believe – but this does not make sense to me.
