Oh, Just Get Over It!



I had a person contact me tonight  that sounds like he is part of Flurry's cult.  One of his comments was, "Get over it!"

On Facebook today there was a reference to seem of the comments by Darlene Quimet on her blog, "Emerging From Broken: From Surviving to Thriving On The Journey To Wholeness"


Being told to “just get over it” is devaluing. It implies that I am making a mistake in processing an event. It indicates that something is wrong with ME because I am in still confused about something that has not been resolved.  The statement is emotionally abusive.  And even when it is used in a positive context, as in the example in the first paragraph, there is a negative left over from all the abuse that was forced on me in the past. 
 
WHY is it wrong to need to have something understood or resolved in the first place?

Furthermore, people who say stuff like this don’t have any solutions; they don’t ever offer suggestions on HOW to get over it or deal with it, because they don’t know how either. 

 They only offer devaluing and thoughtless instructions that remind me of my childhood and how I was never right, never good enough and never entitled to my feelings or to my pain. I was not entitled to realize that I had been wronged. I was always the one who was wrong no matter what the situation was. 

And once again this all began in childhood. Being conditioned this way as a child prepared me to accept that something was wrong with me, so statements like this trigger the same feelings of “not good enough” and “what is wrong with me, why can’t I just get it right?” Add that to “powerless and helpless child” and the teachings, feelings as well as the reactions have carried on into adulthood. 

Until I learned that I do have rights, that I am as equally valuable as everyone else and that I AM ALLOWED to and NEED TO feel the pain of the past and get angry about it SO THAT I COULD “get over it” (which was how I did get over it) but until I embraced those truths, I was stuck in the sick dysfunctional system.

Ron Weinland Pentecost 2014 Promises To Be Very Special.....



Convicted felon, Church of God minister, end time witness, apostle, failed prophet and all around spiritual deviate is now looking forward to Pentecost 2014 as a significant day in his cult.  Sop far Weinerdudes track record regarding Pentecost has been a hilarious string of failures.

2014 promises to be a better choice for Weinerdude.  It is 40 years since HWA had revealed to him to change the date of Pentecost.  He will still be sitting in prison though I imagine he expects a big earthquake to set him free. After all, god is on his side.

It was on Pentecost of 1998, one year exactly after God separated me from the scattering of the Apostasy in order to lead His Church, that this remnant of God’s Church was fully established. Now, we well know the purpose and meaning associated with Pentecost of 2012 and 2013. But what about Pentecost of 2014? What about the timing of 40 years? Is it coincidental that we are coming up to a unique count contained in the meaning of 40 years since God revealed the correct timing for the observance of Pentecost to be observed in His Church at the end of the age? Brethren, all I can tell you at this time is that it is not coincidental. There is great meaning in this, and God will reveal it more fully in His time. God’s timing and preciseness in all things in our lives and within the Church are by great design, especially with something of this importance relating to the meaning of Pentecost, 40 years, and the end of this age. Nothing like this is of coincidence or a matter of chance.

Philadelphia Church of God's Racist and Social Profiling In The Caribbean



Of all the various splinter cults of Armstrongism, PCG has clung more staunchly to the British Israelism malarkey than any other COG.  With BI's inherent racist qualities, it is no wonder that PCG is a lily white splinter cult.  It grits it's teeth that there are people of color in other nations around the world only because they are an income flow.

The Caribbean PCG churches have always suffered under the weight of the racist attitudes of PCG ministers sent there.  It continues to this day profiling members according to race and their social status.  Those with money get the most attention, those on the lower end of the financial spectrum are tolerated.

Members Beginning to Speak Out Against Racial and Social Profiling:
July 17, 2013
Samuel Seebran has viciously and maliciously suspended a member in Grenada for speaking out against racial issues existing for a long while in the Caribbean congregations .For years now, these racial issues were never fully addressed and dealt with. Racial discrimination and prejudice have always existed in the PCG, inherited from it's parent church, WCG. Seebran cowardly suspends members who disagree with PCG doctrines and Government (so he won't have to deal with the members concerns and issues). Then, he whines and complains that members don't like him and speak ill of his wife and daughter in a hopeless, vain attempt, for sympathy and compassion. Most members are not so easily fooled by his childish, immature antics and are speaking out against racial and social profiling. One is treated differently according to one's social/ financial class (bigger tithes and offerings) and are given favorable, special treatment, and are considered "a friend of the minister " --Resigned member (Trinidad)
