Worldwide Church of God and The Jehovah's Witnesses - Plagiarism Buddies?

Check out the chart here: Which Came First? WCG or Watchtower Bible Society?

What I had never heard before was that JW leaders may have plagiarized Hebert's writings, just as Herbert Armstrong plagiarized JW, COG7 Day, Mormon and Adventists writers.

In HWA's basement in the old walk-in safe, HWA had lots of books from the SDA's, JW's, and other Adventist groups.  He had underlined passages in the books and marked them up from much use.

Dennis Muses: Clear as...

It's a complicated, intricate, not well or totally understood, puzzling, enormously complex, not so simple,  plain to see kinda crystal clear...

 

 

 

"God’s Word is crystal clear!"

"Readers will find it fascinating. No next “date” will be set, but the reader will be able to conclude for himself what may happen. Mr. Pack will explain what had not been understood."

"Before covering vital points and scriptures that all should now keep in mind, it is of course obvious there was an error in the prophecy’s timing.  (Actually the error is the exegesis) There may be other details that are wrong. I always knew this and said it to the Church more than once. In fact, we are still learning additional elements of it. Mr. Armstrong puzzled and puzzled and puzzled over certain much less complicated prophecies. He often said that things he learned came over time—not all right away, or even close in some cases. There are points we learned “late” in what is an enormously complex prophecy. We knew from early on in our pursuit of the truth that this prophecy did not carry with it the kind of time that Mr. Armstrong always had to properly sort through prophecies—ones that, however great in magnitude as we know some are, were simpler to understand."

"This announcement explains additional expansive elements of the Haggai/Zechariah prophecy that none of us had yet understood."

  

Dave Pack-Announcement 27

  

 

Mr. Pack will be posting two or three more “Friday Announcements” in the coming weeks. These will explain in detail additional expansive elements of the Haggai/Zechariah prophecy. They will open your eyes to things that God has long intended to do in His end-time Work that no one ever understood before, and you will see that His Word is plain!

However...this personally is my idea of crystal clear.  Maybe it's just me...

 



James Malm: Now That My Knowledge Has Been Brought Forth The Law, My God No Longer Overlooks Your New Moon Sins

The god of James Malm apparently is such a weak impotent thing that it could not control it's followers so that they kept the new moons on the correct days and at the precise time.  But now that James Malm is on the scene blasting the world with legalistic mumbo-jumbo his god is now holding people accountable for new moon worship.


A Malmite acolyte asks:

Can the new moon only be viewed from Jerusalem to start a new month? If so, can you provide the scripture support for this as well. This is not a question of should new moons be observed, but the logistics of viewing from Canada, U.S., Australia, or just Jerusalem.

The Pharisee responds:

The first visible light of the new moon may be seen on different days according to where we live. In the past this might have been overlooked by God, but as knowledge is increased God is turning us to focus us on Jerusalem as the future capital of all the earth.

 In an effort to have all brethren around the world observe the Festivals and Appointed times on the same day; and because God is working to focus all people on Jerusalem; which in the millennium will be the world capital; we choose to follow this prophecy in Isaiah 2:3

And many people shall go and say, Come ye, and let us go up to the mountain of the Lord, to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths: for out of Zion shall go forth the law, and the word of the Lord from Jerusalem.

The millennial kingdom is about to be established and much increase in spiritual knowledge has been given, Dan 12; and now it is time for all people to begin to focus on the imminent future capital of the earth: that is what observing the first light of the new moon from Jerusalem is about. James

Still no Jesus, but tons of legalistic BS.

To Preserve The Sanctity of Marriage, James Malm Says, If A Man Sleeps With His Fiancee, She Is To Be Beaten While The Man Only Has To Give A Sacrifice

James Malm says:

If one lies with his betrothed, she shall be scourged, but not killed because she was forced; and the man shall bring a sacrifice for his sin.   Thus showing the sanctity of marriage that even the betrothed may not indulge themselves.

19:20 And whosoever lieth carnally with a woman, that is a bondmaid, betrothed to an husband, and not at all redeemed, nor freedom given her; she shall be scourged; they shall not be put to death, because she was not free.  19:21 And he shall bring his trespass offering unto the LORD, unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, even a ram for a trespass offering. 19:22 And the priest shall make an atonement for him with the ram of the trespass offering before the LORD for his sin which he hath done: and the sin which he hath done shall be forgiven him.

So lets get this straight. In order to preserve the sanctity of marriage, James Malm says that you must beat the woman half to death if she has sexual relations with the man. 

As usual in patriarchal dominions, it is the woman that is at fault.  The poor man was deceived by the women so he only has to kill a goat.  The woman however is an evil temptress who was used by Satan to deceive and corrupt the once pure man, therefore, beat the evil out of her.'

So what brought about Malm's anger?  Oral sex!  Though for some reason he says it is the man's fault that women have oral sex.  They are deceived by the men in the Church of God into giving oral sex before marriage in order to remain a virgin who has not been penetrated.

I have heard of many cases within the COG Groups where women have been convinced by their men friends that oral or manual sex is not really sex, and they then do this, thinking themselves to still be virgins.  

I have news for you, Bill Clinton was wrong.  ANY kind of behavior that is intended to produce any type of sexual activity between unmarried persons is pornea, that is, such activity is forbidden!  And anyone who performs such activity is no longer a virgin in the emotional and spiritual sense.  

Spiritually we are to remain BOTH physical and spiritual virgins until lawful marriage.  This also has its spiritual application!  We are NOT to try  get as close as we can to paganism without actually worshipping the idol!  We are not to study and involve ourselves in doing or believing as the pagans do.

It is clearly obvious as to why Malm's wife left him.
