The Painful Truth-Herbert W. Armstrong's Worldwide Church of God

Understanding the psychology of religious seduction and spiritual abuse.

Category: Ralph Haulk

I was drawn in by the WCG back in 1968, and, being a teen-ager, I didn’t truly suffer that much. My parents, however, were broken apart by the damn divorce-remarriage doctrine. They stayed separated for about a year and a half, but finally saw the light and and reunited. They enjoyed another twenty years together before my mother died.

Sacrifice of Isaac

The story of Abraham sacrificing Isaac creates a moral dilemma for those who believe the Bible.
How could Abraham simply accept God’s command to simply take Isaac and offer him for sacrifice?
Surely Abraham knew better. Could he not see that such a command to take human life was wrong?

  • Al Carrozzo’s Resignation Letter to the Ministry April 12, 2026
     Some people stand up for their moral convictions, others not so… February 8, 1974 Dear Fellow Ministers: I’m sure you’ve heard all kinds of rumors about me.

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.”
