The Mystery of Iniquity

The Apostle Paul described iniquity as a mystery(2 Thess. 2:7).  Which means it is difficult if not impossible to understand the irrational malevolence of the the devil and those he influences.

For example, Joe Tkach junior describes Mr Herbert W. Armstrong as a false prophet, yet he believes that his ordination under the dispensation of a false prophet is valid, and was inspired by God.  Yet there isn't one single example in the bible of God calling anyone to follow a false prophet, or inspiring a false prophet to ordain anyone to do his work.

If Mr Armstrong was a false prophet, as these insane people believe, then those who came to WCG were not called by God, their baptism was invalid and anyone that was ordained was not chosen by God to be a deacon or minister.

In addition, it is reported that Robin Jones, Francis Bergin and a few other WCG former ministers, who are now associated with GCI, do not agree with the doctrinal changes introduced by the Tkachs, but they refused to speak out against the Tkacks' heretical teachings because they say, "that would be disloyal."  How can one be disloyal to lies?  This same insane opinion is shared and expressed by many of the laity, who attend GCI's church services every week.

This irrational madness does not surprised God's elect!  For when Jesus was on earth, the Pharisees, who were agents of the devil, accused Jesus of casting out devils by Beelzebub the prince of the devils(Matt.12:24).  Isn't that a degree of insanity that puzzles even the understanding of God's elect?

But what is even more mysterious and perplexing is the fact that men like Dr Meredith, David Hulme, Dave Pack, Dave Havir, Victor Kubic and all the other hirelings with their own churches now believe that Christ is divided, and God is the author of confusion.  Of course, these men are in religion for the sake of a salary.  Therefore, they are described by Jesus as hirelings.  And the hireling is as devious and malevolent as Satan, for they are his agents on earth.
