While the letter below pertains to the Philadelphia Church of God cult it might as well pertain to the other COG splinter groups who now number well into the 400+ range. Every single one of them claims they are following Herbert Armstrong to the letter and yet, every single one of them is lying that they are. Not even Bob Thiel, the most perfect human COG leader to ever exist, follows what HWA taught. Bob has added so much filth and additional stuff that HWA wouldn't recognize Bob's abomination if he turned in for a video. Then there is Ron Weinland and Dave Pack, two certifiable liars who have made so many false prophecies that even Gerald Waterhouse and Simon Magus would be appalled.
None though have taken the worship of Herbert Armstrong to the extreme as has the Philadelphia Church of God. Even with its Armstrong relics that are placed in prominent places for adoration, the church is so far from what HWA taught that he would not recognize it. Like Bob Thiel, Flurry has added to what HWA taught and deleted what he did not like. Like Bob Thiel, PCG's false prophecies continue to fall by the wayside.
May we all continue to speak out about the abuses in the church as we are witnesses of the slow agonizing death of Armstrongism!
PCG’s Great January 16 Hoax:
January 16, 2023
The great January 16 hoax is upheld by the PCG and treated as if the time between December 7 and January 16 is yet another “God-ordained” or “holy” time period. That hypocritical “church” may poke fun at the “pagan holiday” of X-mas, calling it a “ho-ho-hoax” in their little flyers that come with “church literature,” while at the very same time and during the very same season, they enforce their own unbiblical “season” of 40 days stretching over and beyond what the “pagan world” calls “the holidays.”
While the PCG accepts and enjoys many “seasonal” donations during that jolly old time, their god forbids that any little PCG child accept a Christmas card from Grandma or Auntie.
This mythical 40-day period of the PCG’s is upheld and enforced not by some invisible spiritual entities, which the PCG would have their members believe, but real physical hands of real conscious human beings are at work during this period of time, hoaxing the brethren. Not the hand of God, nor the “work” of God, but the work of wicked and greedy men.
I pray for the pillars of that wicked religious fraud organization to crumble and crash. And I pray for mercy, real mercy that is, for the brethren and relief. And I also pray everyday that the actors in that wicked religious organization and all their cohorts be busted and that they be exposed for the dangerous fraud that they are, and prosecuted. May GF’s own hoax turn on him. –Former PCG member. Exit and Support Network
