Former Church of God Member Claims He Is Zerubbabel

For decades the Church of God has had all kinds of Elisha's, Elijah's, Joshua's, Jeremiah's and any other Old Testament hero that COG members like to latch onto.  They all had a message that they thought was vital to the church and its wayward members.  Almost all of these men are dead just like their OT namesakes.  That still has not stopped modern day fools like Almost-ordained Bob Thiel, James Malm, David Pack, Gerald Flurry and Ron Weinland.  Have you ever noticed that none of these guys ever latch onto Jesus or any new covenant personality?  God forbid if they ever had to act like James, John, Peter or any of the other apostles.  After all, the apostles were vile   Gracites. As all modern-day prophets and apostles are quick to let us know, what the church needs is religious zealots from Hebrew times.

Today, I present Zerubbabel, the latest prophet to the Church of God.  This guy is also a zealot and a Pharisee like James Malm, with the difference being that this zealot actually dresses the part.  He is also like James Malm in another way, he is unemployed and is constantly looking for followers to give him money.  The Church of God has always been good at creating prophets and apostles, but it is exceptionally good at creating professional money moochers who are too lazy to get a real job and get their holy hands dirty.

The person we need to thank for Zerubbabel is Ron Weinland.  This idiot was also a member of Ron Weinland's cult.  Zerubbabel's real name is Michael Noordhoek and now has to live here in the United States in Arizona, after both Greece and Israel kicked him of their countries.  He, his wife and stepdaughter live in a shack in the desert where the kitchen, living room and bedroom are all in one place.

This mentally ill man claims that Jesus is the first of the Two Witnesses, and that he, Zerubbabel, is the Second Witnesses.  Jesus is also the first of three prophecied "man-child's," with Zerubbabel being the second "man-child."  So who is the third "man-child?"

The man is mentally ill, but never so much as to what follows here:

Well, in his latest Youtube diatribe, he has proclaimed himself to be the new King of Israel and his step-daughter a prophetess. He has also professed to seeing "the sign" of the Revelation 12 virgin in the sky which "proves" his step-daughter is this prophetess...and that she is also to bear a son by HIM, the King of Israel. SO HE BELIEVES HE IS SUPPOSED TO HAVE A CHILD WITH HIS STEP DAUGHTER...WHO MAY STILL BE A MINOR...she is to have this "prophetic "third man-child".

5:28 he talks about how his daughter is the prophetess and he is the King 

8:20 He talks about being the king that conceives the man child after his daughter finishes having her period.

The anonymous source that sent me this has also contacted the FBI to make sure that Zerubbabel's stepdaughter is not being sexually abused.

Zerubbabel has videos here and a Facebook page here.

Former WCG Member Hosting 10 Part Series On Heaven's Gate Cult

Hollywood Reporter has the following story up:

The 10-episode project, which will explore what led to one of the largest mass suicides in U.S. history, will be hosted by Glynn Washington.

Dan Taberski is reuniting with the team behind Missing Richard Simmons for a new podcast that will explore what happened inside the Heaven's Gate cult. 

The Missing Richard Simmons host is joining Heaven's Gate as a writer. The 10-episode project will be hosted by Glynn Washington of Snap Judgment.

Washington told The Hollywood Reporter that the podcast won't just focus on the mass suicide of Heaven's Gate members; it will also delve into the lives of the people who joined the group and seek to answer questions about how the suicide happened.

Washington spoke to family members, survivors and other people involved with Heaven's Gate for the project. "These people are real people who made real choices for real reasons, and we wanted to explore that," he said. 

Washington explained that his interest in the topic comes from his own background growing up in a cult (his family was a part of a religious organization called the Worldwide Church of God). "The lens through which the project is viewed is my own," he said. "I can't do this without bringing my own background to these questions."

Washington said that Taberski was an important addition to the team. "He's got a great touch as a writer," he added. "Bringing Dan on is a demonstration of how much excitement [there is] about this project and the commitment to making sure that it works." 

Heaven's Gate hails from Stitcher, which is a part of E.W. Scripps' Midroll Media podcasting division, and is being produced in collaboration with Pineapple Street Media. It is set to premiere Oct. 18. The trailer can be listened to here.
