We Are The Problem

Blast from the past…

Thanks to the good people at the Church of God, a group that split off from Gerald Flurry’s Philadelphia Church of God, much of the literature from the first 30 years of the Worldwide Church of God is now available on CD.

Why So Many Church of Gods?

Hard upon the heels of the demise of the Worldwide Church of God as we knew it, the casual observer may be shocked to discover a regiment of splinter groups that have sprung up in its place.  Where once there was “one true church of God”, now there are hundreds, all claiming the same charter, all claiming to carry out the same commission.  How can this be?

True Prophets are a Reflection of Jesus

There are many who teach from the bible; how do we know when truth is spoken? How do we identify a false prophet? There is much instruction in the Scriptures to teach us how to identify a false prophet. Would you be able to identify a false prophet?
Do you really care?

Most likely not.

  • Halloween day tribute to the evil behind the WCG November 1, 2026
    The evil of Armstrongism is not merely in its false doctrines, but in the spiritual damage inflicted upon those who trusted in him. It is a religion of fear masquerading as righteousness, a system in which control is dressed up as obedience and human authority is elevated above Christian freedom. This religion of Satan and those […]

  • Backward Masking October 31, 2026
     Forward: Backmasking is a recording technique in which a sound or message is recorded backward onto a track that is meant to be played forward. Backmasking is a deliberate process, whereas a message found through phonetic reversal may be unintentional. Sometime in the mid 80s we began hearing sermons locally about the satanic influence of […]

  • An American Horror Story October 31, 2026
    A great many people have little enthusiasm for being free and autonomous. Such a prospect terrifies them! Most want to “have a place,” to be a piece of the “in” swarm, to be in the place where the “activity” is. They need to hitch their wagon to a “cause,” to a religious or political master […]

  • Trick or Treat? October 30, 2026
    The LORD of hosts is His name; great in counsel and mighty in deed, whose eyes are open to all the ways of the sons of men, giving to everyone according to his ways and according to the fruit of his deeds. -Jeremiah 32     Among the many stories relayed to me by members and former […]

  • Herbie’s Near Death Experience October 30, 2026
    A “Near Death Experience,” or NDE, has been a phenomena that parapsychologists have studied for more than a hundred years.   Sometimes when a patient dies on the operating table, or has a heart attack, and if and when they recover, many have related strange happenings during the time that they were technically “dead.”   While I’m not advocating a solid […]

The Not So Great, Bob Thiel

Quote by David C. Pack

“I want to make a statement about…me…now, if I became deceived, I will never tell you what I’m going to tell you now…I am telling you if I go off into strange ideas, misconduct, rebellion, you name it, don’t follow me. I want to tell you that now, because if I start doing that I’m gonna try to get you to follow me! I’m gonna come to you and tell you it doesn’t apply, it doesn’t mean me, no, no, no, no, no, no, it’s OK to follow me because ABCD and XY and Z. Do you understand what I’m saying? Listen to me now, when I tell you don’t follow me if I go off into weird ideas, or if I get off into other things that are total absolutely unscriptural conduct, because if I do I’m gonna paint it with a different face and try to get you to follow me. Do you understand what I’m saying brethren? Please remember that, because I promise you that if I become deceived, I’ll forget it, and I’ll want you to forget it…And I hope you’ll remember it well enough to quote it right back to me…But I’ll tell you what, I’m not going anywhere.”
