LCG: Another Outstanding Gospel Outreach In Tampa/St Pete FL Area
In the latest member update for November 24, 2021, Gerald Weston is proud of the fact that out of 2.8 million people he was able to gather 55 attendees (many of who were LCG members), and then after two follow up appearances, they were able to end up attracting 6 returnees to their lectures.
6 out of 2.8 million people.
Truly astounding!
The gospel goes forth with POWER!!!
Tomorrow’s World Presentation Series in Tampa, Florida
In the last several weeks, our ministers have conducted Tomorrow’s World Presentations in Tampa, Florida. After Mr. Weston’s main presentation (55 guests), two follow-up presentations have been given: one by Mr. James Sweat on November 13 with ten returning guests and the second by Dr. Wilner Pierre on November 20 with 6 returning guests. While follow-up presentations do not produce as high attendance as the initial presentation, they do indicate those who may have a deeper interest in pursuing the Truth and getting more involved in the Work.
Nice spin job there Gerald!
Mr. Sweat reported: “This week’s presentation from Dr. Pierre, ‘Man’s Holidays or God’s Holy Days—Does it Matter?’ was attended by six repeat guests. At least three of them have requested o attend Sabbath services next week. We take a break for the Thanksgiving weekend and resume this series of follow-up TWPs with Mr. Richard Thomas on December 4 with ‘The Commandments Before Sinai,’ and I will finish out the series on December 11 with ‘What Is the Kingdom of God?’ We are very encouraged by the response. As one individual noted, ‘I don’t know of another COG doing the Work in this way!’”
This one individual is obviously a disenchanted COG member from another group. Nice spin job there too!
I wonder if they ever do a presentation solely on Jesus? Do they even mention his name? The Jesus of scripture and not the one that the COG's have dreamed up.

Its Thanksgiving And Whiny Prophet Is Ticked Off Again About Football And Gluttony
It is Thanksgiving here in America where people celebrate the freedoms that allow them access to so much they can be thankful for.
Sadly, for some pretend COG leaders and self-appointed spokesmen, this day is not one that should be celebrated and if you do, you must REFUSE to participate in the Satanic observance of turning on your television and watching Satan's minions play football while being cheered on by scantly clad cheerleaders who are leading the men of God astray.
Where would we be without these hypocritical loudmouths with their endless spiel of pharisaical diarrhea?
Today, God's most highly chosen man from the entire history of Christianity is once more getting his homeopathic knickers in a knot. His very first paragraph is one whiny little bitch-fest of negativity:
Today is the national holiday in the USA called Thanksgiving. And despite certain claims, its specific origins are not pagan. But, of course, no Christian needs to celebrate national holidays like it if they do not wish to (cf. Romans 14). And the Bible does condemn gluttony. And with COVID-9 this year, government officials have warned about family gatherings.
I have never seen God's most amazing prophet ever decry the gluttony of members at the Feast of Tabernacles, at church picnics, or at the annual COG Christmas Party Weekends. Like many in the COG those are times of a foretaste of the kingdom to come and members should enjoy themselves to their best ability.
One thing that I have noticed on the day called Thanksgiving by those in the USA, is when I have been at many other places than the home I lived in, American football has been playing on television.
For many, other than food and family, football is a major focus of the Thanksgiving holiday for many in the USA.
The heavenly realm is weeping at this very thought right now!
The Chosen One then goes on to quote President Obama and others about their concerns over tackle football and then whines that real Christians should not be endorsing it.
He even goes on to quote that other authority on everything, Herbert Armstrong.
....the late Herbert W. Armstrong wrote:
Hostility toward the other is sin…Football (American football) is a violent body-contact sport. It is often played with an attitude of hostility and is dangerous and is fraught with physical injury. (Plain Truth, July-August 1984)Wherever a game in sports involves ANTAGONISTS–in HOSTILE ATTITUDE to harm the other and/or to “GET” from the other–to get the best of the other–then a harmful, Satanic and evil attitude enters in, and the sport is EVIL, not good…football,(American football)…because football is such a violent body contact sport, it TOO OFTEN is played in an ATTITUDE OF HOSTILITY, and is too DANGEROUS and fraught with PHYSICAL INJURY . Therefore it must be BANNED so far as participation by God’s Church or people is concerned…This is sufficient to illustrate the application of the PRINCIPLE of God’s Law to sports. That participated in with an attitude of HOSTILITY toward the opponent is evil. That which HARMS mentally or physically an opponent is evil.Satan is the author of COMPETITION based on hostility, harm to the opponent, GETTING by taking FROM an opponent–to his harm or loss. God’s way is LOVE TOWARD neighbor equal to love of self. (Armstrong HW. Not all sports are banned. Pastor General’s Report, Volume 2, Issue 36, September 5, 1980)
And yet, Herbert watched American football, soccer, "professional" wrestling, and the Lakers basketball games, all of which are filled with attitudes of hostility and vile satanic COMPETITION which TAKES from the opponent. The hypocrisy of COG leaders is appalling but never shocking.
The so-called doubly-blessed apostate then ends with this as he accuses all who watch football of being Laodicean.
...many (including Laodicean Christians) are too selfish to stop watching and encouraging the playing of American tackle football.
Christians should give God thanks, but not encourage violence in sports like American tackle football.
Everything in this world is Laodicean to these pathetic whiny little men leading Churches of God today. "Laodicean" is the favorite perjorative of COG leaders, falsely so-called.
COG members were given brains so they could make their own decisions WITHOUT any of the spiritually bankrupt diarrhea that currently flows from the self-appointed leaders of COGdom today.
So give thanks for your blessings, enjoy your family and friends, enjoy good food and enjoy a game of football on television or in person. God isn't going to turn his back on you if you do, even if these whiny men say otherwise.

PCG On Things to Be Thankful For
One thing can be said about Armstrongism, it has no depth of meaning but plenty of shallowness. The focus is entirely upon the human leaders and the things they produce. While Jesus is mentioned, anything related to his "sacrifice" they are thankful for is ignored because they have never been taught anything about what Jesus accomplished.

Big Bad Meanie Pentecostals Persecuting Bob Thiel's African Cult.
Bob Thiel's cult facing more persecution in Africa. The Pentecostals are publicly disproving his teachings and he doesn't like that!
The failed prophet writes:
CCOG deacon Ondigo Ochieng sent the following pictures and long report about our radio program in the Kenay/Tanzania area:
Amid barricades that Satan lay on our paths as we do God’s Work, We have seen God’s Mighty hand in supporting His Work!
SUNDAY 24TH, OCTOBER 2021
DISCOURSE: WERE THE PHARISEES CONDEMNED FOR KEEPING THE LAW?
This discourse emerged to answer the questions of some Pentecostals who are really against our messages on radio. They, together with their organization called Kehancha Pentecostal One Accord (KEPOA), raised complains when I taught about three days and three nights. Some were sending negative messages that w
e are like Pharisees who only peg their beliefs on obeying the ten commandments especially the Sabbath.
They are like the Pharisees! Thats' a fact. Theilism is based entirely upon the words of the self-appointed, self-anointed Prophet Bob and not on being a follower of Jesus.
The discourse attracted 17 calls and 5 sms. It was so good because many were able to appreciate that they could be able to understand the scope of the Pharisees view on the ten commandments. They realized that most of the people have the attitude of the Pharisees by not keeping God’s Royal Law of liberty. I was given an extra 20 minutes to answer questions. I also directed listeners to the CCOG website. I used the article that Dr.Thiel wrote concerning the above discourse.
The Pharisees, like the Thielites are not able to understand anything because they don't follow that inconvenient dude who gets in their way all the time. Jesus is constantly knocking at their door and they slam the 10 Commandments and the law in his face.
The other issue his "decon" has is that he uses the writings of the self-appointed failed prophet Bob Thiel as if it was factual and truthful biblical interpretation. It's not.
