A Prophet Ahead Of His Time

All God's servants may be described as men way ahead of their time, for they are led by the spirit of prophecy to understand future events. That is why Mr. H.W. Armstrong was able to foretell the scattering of the church, and the rise of a cabal of hirelings, whose sole purpose is to draw away disciples after them, to extort tithes and offerings from them.

So today, we see a multiplicity of divided church groups, all claiming to represent Jesus, as though Christ is divided or God is the author of confusion. But the faithful have not been duped by any of them. For Jesus says: "My sheep will hear my voice, and a stranger they will not follow" (John 10:5).

Of course, Mr. Armstrong's constant warning to the faithful was, "most people in the church don't get it." This warning was not understood by the tares among the wheat, but the wheat were led by God to see and understand "the writing on the wall." So in 1995 when WCG was shattered, and those devious men who were once ordained as ministers began to position themselves to draw away disciples after them, the faithful flock fled for refuge under the wings of the Eternal.

Now, the hirelings that remained with Joe Tkach, have joined him in singing that Mr. Armstrong was a false prophet and a charlatan. Yet these same ungodly men have held on to the legacy of money and property that Mr. Armstrong left. How shameless can people be?

Also, many of the tares have formed themselves into cabals of scoffers. The most infamous of them, is the cabal that tend to coalesce around AW blog. AW blog is led by a man who doesn't have an original idea in his head. But he has attracted fanatical support from an insane group, who find the blandishments of sin much more congenial than the salutary harshness of virtue. The two top positions in the group have been seized by Dennis The Depressed and Douglas The Deranged. The other members of the group pop up from time to time to remind us that they have returned to their own vomit, by celebrating Christmas, Easter, Halloween and all the other pagan festivals they once denounced, but never actually renounced.

Mr. Armstrong also prophesied that all of these evil men will be cast into the lake of fire. When this happens, I wonder who will have the courage to shout, Mr. Armstrong was a false prophet!

Anonymous Rant

Yesterday I received an incoherent rant from an irrational, anonymous writer. The venom and vitriol were quite amusing. But what was most amusing, was the unwillingness or inability of the writer to add his or her name to the comments they made. Hiding in the shadows and hurling abuse at people is not very convincing.

The person obviously disagrees with my comments. And of course, he or she is "free" to do so; and I would be more than happy to publish their comments, provided they are coherent and not abusive. I don't even mind the use of very forceful language, or rational indignation, but I am not yet capable of understanding irrational, emotional outburst of anger and rage. For the bible describes this type of uncontrolled behaviour as the "Mystery of Inequity."

However, if you are still out there, and wish to engage me in a rational discussion, please feel free to pen your coherent comments?

Evolved or Mutated, Which?

Evolution is not science! The knowledge that it is a flawed theory, has obviously escaped the superior intellect of those who make inane comments at AW blog. Darwin, probably and unwittingly, perpetrated a great hoax on a godless group of people, that are looking for every opportunity to deny the existence of God and the variety of his creation.

Of course, to evolve suggests some form of development, but the people posting at AW blog have regressed by rejecting the truth they were once taught. In reality, they have mutated to one of the lowest forms of creatures. For the bible warns and describes them thus: "For if after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, they are again entangled therein, and overcome, the later end is worse with them than the beginning.

For it had been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than, after they have known it, to turn from the holy commandment delivered unto them.

But it is happened unto them according to the true proverb, The dog is turned to his own vomit again; and the sow that was washed to her wallowing in the mire"(11 Pet. 2:20-22).

There is nothing more vile than to see a dog returning to its own vomit. The best thing for such a creature is to put it down!

What Would Jesus Say?

When people are killed in western democratic countries by what is called often called, "natural disasters," there is often an outpouring of grief and sympathy for the victims, especially if they are white. And of course, the dead are never shown on TV nor the lamentations of their relatives. But when the same happens to people in Asia and Africa, in particular, the same considerations are not give to the dead nor their grieving families. The dead, mangled bodies are often displayed on every news bulletin, and the camera never spots focusing on the lamentations of the grieving families.

In contrast, note how respectful and sensitive the news media have been to the sufferings of the people of western Australia, whose lives have been devastated by the recent conflagration. Talk about a free press that operate by double standards!

But the burning question is this: How would Jesus react to the recent disaster? Would he be saying, how sad? Or would he say, "Do you think that those Australians were sinners above all Australians, because they suffered such things? I tell you, No; but except you repent, you shall all likewise perish."

So, today it is the Australians, tomorrow it could be you - unless you repent.

I shall remain at Mizpah until desolation overspreads the land.

Another Old Chestnut

After the leader of the cabal of scoffers, that coalesce around AW blog was put to shame for regurgitating baseless allegations against God's servant, Mr. Armstrong, he quickly brought out another old chestnut, entitle "False Prophecies," believing that here he was on surer ground.

While it is true that that ministers, including Mr. Armstrong, speculated about the roles certain men might play in fulfilling bible prophecy, and those speculations turned out to be wrong, does not invalidate the actual prophecies. This contention can be easily illustrated thus. The police might believe or speculate that a certain individual might be involved in a crime because of his past behaviour. He might even be arrested and charged with the crime, only for the prosecution to later discover that he is innocent. But his innocence does not mean a crime was not committed. All it means is, the man arrested and charged was not the culprit!

Similarly, because Mr. Armstrong put the wrong people in the frame of prophecy does not mean that the prophecy will not be fulfilled, with the right people in the frame, in the fullness of time.

Of course, those people with irrational minds will stumble to the conclusion that because the police arrested and charge the wrong man, no crime was committed! In the same way, they have blindly assumed that prophecy is nonsense, because the wrong people were in the frame.

None of this madness surprises me. For Corky, who is completely deranged, avers that people of higher intelligence and devotion to their faith are more likely to be guilty of incest. If this nonsense is true, one wonders what idiots are likely to do?

The Second Temple

We know from scripture that God wanted Israel to build a second temple. The order to do so was given by Cyrus, the Persian.   The details ar...
