I do not know where the Church of God and especially the Living Church of God would be without sex or evil spirits/demons constantly in their messages. Demons and evil spirits are more powerful than their god who seems unable to hold them those bad spirits in check as they destroy the church and its membership.

End-time events are heating up. This is obvious to anyone who has eyes to see. But why? The book of Daniel tells of a remarkable, ongoing spirit war then taking place in Persia (Daniel 10:12–14, 20–21). Our world today and the events happening in it are difficult to explain without understanding that there are unseen spirit forces at work. The prince of the power of the air and his powerful assistants are moving in our world (Ephesians 2:2; Mark 9:28–29).
For 80 some years now we have heard the church tell us that the demons know their time is short and that is why they persecute the church so much. It is always their fault instead of the inept leadership that tends to be abusive narcissists. Prophecy is coming alive before their eyes...sigh, we have heard this same worn-out routine for decades, and noting they have predicted has come to pass.
These evil spirits must know that their time is short. And, although we do not know how short or when Satan will be cast down as described in Revelation 12, that event and the consequences of that battle are certain. Please do not read into this more than is intended, as it is likely that we will only understand the timing of that event in retrospect. But what we see for now is that prophecies we have known for decades are coming alive before our very eyes. While we have the overview of prophecy, we do not know every detail—but the stage is being set. Speculation is alluring, and fine when kept in perspective, but let us focus more on what we know for certain than on what we can only guess may happen.
Weston sees the membership as particularly susceptible to these demonic forces who they let take over their minds and bodies to cause division in the church. Not that the ministry would EVER do such a thing! As usual, these entities are more powerful than Jesus.
We see an effort by the evil side of the spirit world to polarize and divide mankind at all levels. Sadly, even some in the Church have allowed themselves to become instruments of those unseen hands causing divisions. This problem is not new (1 Corinthians 1:10–13; 3:4). Again, please do not misunderstand; Paul was describing what was happening within the Church of God in Corinth. He was not promoting some form of emotional ecumenism to unify groups that had chosen to separate. He addressed that problem in Acts 20:29–31 and elsewhere.
Brethren, we must not get caught up in worldly controversies and political strife that evil spirits are stirring up to create division. Rather, we must keep our focus on what God has called us to do, especially as we see the events that we have talked about for decades occurring at warp speed before our eyes. Politicians and media have their agendas and messages, but we, as the body of Christ, must recognize why God has called us—to proclaim the good news of a better world and to warn the current world of what is happening and why.
Imagine if they spent that same amount of energy on keeping their focus upon Jesus, that inconvenient dude that's always messing up their plans.
