Are the two witnesses already among us? Many in the COG have claimed they are one of the two witnesses, including Ron Weinland and his dingy wife Laura. We thankfully know for a fact that Bob Thiel is not one. It is an impossibility. Gerald Flurry and Dave Pack are not them either. So who does that leave? Is it me and Dennis?
We need to look no further than the Kitchen family. Samuel and his brother just might be those two witnesses! Bob Thiel, eat your amateurish heart out! Poor little guy.
Samuel and his brother went on a disastrous journey last year to Jerusalem for the Feast, calling all converted Church of God members to join them there. After having a con pulled on them for hotel reservations, they headed off to Petra. Thankfully while in the Middle East, they did not try and pull a Denis Rohan stunt and start WWIII.
Last year, my brother and I WENT TO JERUSALEM. We were TWO of a family, and the women who came with us from Canada (our mothers in the Lord, 1 Timothy 5:2 "The elder women as mothers; the younger as sisters, with all purity."), were one by a city. We went to Jerusalem to declare the EXISTENCE of the Worldwide Church of God, to send out a call to gather in Jerusalem to KEEP THE SABBATHS OF THE LORD! The Sabbath is a day of rest.Jeremiah 6:16 reads, "Thus saith the Lord, Stand ye in the ways, and see, and ask for the old paths, where is the good way, and walk therein, and ye shall find rest for your souls. But they said, We will not walk therein."(more on this chapter later)Last year, we found no rest in Jerusalem, we found danger! WE HAD TO FLEE JERUSALEM! So God led us to PETRA, where we kept the Sabbaths of the Lord, though some were not there with us enjoying that rest.This year, more brethren went to Jerusalem (keeping what God had taught them through His servant Herbert W. Armstrong), and ended up FLEEING from the city and the dangers there, the lockdowns, finding REST in Petra. DO you think God is not preparing those of the body of Christ for the command to FLEE JUDEA when armies of the beast surround Jerusalem?
Remember last week when we reported that COG members in Israel for the Feast thought it would be a good idea to go to Petra as Jewish men, women, and children were being slaughtered? Nothing should ever stop COG members from enjoying their vacations Feast trips!
Samuel continues:
This will then be the time Jesus speaks about in Luke 21:20-21 “And when ye shall see Jerusalem compassed with armies, then know that the desolation thereof is nigh. Then let them which are in Judaea flee to the mountains; and let them which are in the midst of it depart out; and let not them that are in the countries enter thereinto.”
Prior to this event, the call to come to Jerusalem was DECLARED! When the armies surround Jerusalem, then the call TO NOT COME TO JERUSALEM shall be declared!
The call to come to Jerusalem, to keep the Sabbaths of the Lord HAS BEEN MADE BRETHREN.
Well, ghastly days! All of you backsliding Laodiceans who REFUSED to heed the call last year to go to Jersuelam are screwed! No more Jerusalem for you! Bad Laodiceans! Bad!
The Worldwide Church of God is heading on a track to JERUSALEM! Those who have departed from God, who can REPENT....PLEASE DO! That's what it is all about! Jesus Christ will forgive our sins, if we confess them to God. The blood of Christ can make you clean AND YOU CAN RETURN AND BE THE WORLDWIDE CHURCH OF GOD you were originally called to be of.
So there you have it. Salvation is only available if and when you rejoin the one true church, the Worldwide Church of God.
