Living Church of God: Does It Have Any Ministers Above Reproach?

Here are the guidelines that ministers in the Living Church of God should be following when they dish out punishments on rebellious LCG members..

Guidelines for Exercising Church Discipline and Authority  (Handout 3.4) pg. 3-12

To exercise ecclesiastical authority properly and effectively, a minister:

• Must BE MOTIVATED BY LOVE.

• Must be ABOVE REPROACH in his personal conduct.

• Must have INSPIRED the flock to follow the RIGHT WAY by means of his personal           EXAMPLE and PREACHING.

• Must be FAIR in judgment and in NO way a RESPECTER of persons.

• Must be CONSISTENT in the use of authority and BALANCED in frequency of its use.

• Must ensure that the degree of severity is suited to the seriousness of the infraction of God’s           Laws (1 Corinthians 5:1-4).

Notice #2 above.  Is there really such a thing for a minister in the Church of God to be ABOVE REPROACH?   Especially when you read things like this:

Why was there such an epidemic of adultery at LCG headquarters in Charlotte in the first place? I can count 6 people that I have sat in church with for years, ALL OF WHOM WORKED FOR THE HEADQUARTERS CHURCH who are now known adulterers.

Four were disfellowshipped, one was marked, one still has her job and is in good standing with the church solely because of her husband's position (friendship with Meredith does have its kickbacks)

Doesn't it seem like a disproportionate number when so few work in that building? I have worked in many "worldly" offices and none of them have had such rampant sexual escapades!

I'm just curios to see if there are any theories out there as to why it happened.

Please Tell My PCG Children That I Love Them

Nathan Moffett

Elise Moffett

Gerald Flurry broke up my family.

Here is my son Nathan and my daughter Elise.

I haven't seen or talked to them in 3 years. 

They can't talk to my oldest daughter Carmen 

or her two children.

They won't talk to my youngest son Sterling.

A Father Writes Letter to His Children in the Dangerous Philadelphia Church of God Cult: "Tell my children I love them."

The following is a letter that a man on Facebook who has written to his children who are members of the Philadelphia Church of God personality cult.  Gerald Flurry, the leader of the Philadelphia Church of God, has a long and deadly history of enforcing the vile polices that he has created to keep his members under control.  PCG members have committed suicide over these policies, parents have thrown teenage children out on the street, parents have turned their backs on the children and children have turned against their parents.  One family was even encourage to take their disabled child to the mall and abandon him so that the State could take care of him.

Gerald Flurry has long held himself up as the Elijah to come and God's personal representative on earth today.  If Flurry was truly an Elijah then he would be doing the following COMMAND from God:

5"Behold, I am going to send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and terrible day of the LORD. 6"He will restore the hearts of the fathers to their children and the hearts of the children to their fathers, so that I will not come and smite the land with a curse." Malachi 4:5-6

Or

Luke 1:17
And he will go on before the Lord, in the spirit and power of Elijah, to turn the hearts of the parents to their children and the disobedient to the wisdom of the righteous--to make ready a people prepared for the Lord."

 Here is what Dan Moffett wrote to The Edmond Life and Leisure Facebook  page:

I'm going to post it on as many Edmond and OK city pages I can find, and send it to the local news papers

Tell my children I love them.

I wish I could hear from them on Father's day.

I haven't heard from them in 3 years. They are in the Philadelphia Church of God. A controlling cult that cuts children off from parents and parents from children. The dictatorial leader Gerald Flurry has issued an edict that says members can have NO contact with family members that are not in the church. Members have committed suicide because of this evil family destroying ruling. 

My oldest son Nathan Moffett and my youngest daughter Elise Moffett are in the cult and have been prevented form contacting me, my youngest son, my daughter and granddaughters. The cult has destroyed my family. 

When my oldest daughter and her family were told that they could have no contact with me and when they were told I was not allowed to see my granddaughter, they left the cult. 

When you attend events at Armstrong Auditorium you support the family destroying cult. They don't allow interracial dating or even dancing. They believe they are God's ONLY TRUE Church and Gerald Flurry is THAT PROPHET, he is THE APOSTLE, god on earth.

TELL MY CHILDREN I LOVE THEM, PLEASE!"
