Philadelphia Church of God Facebook Page

A reader here sent me the link to PCG's Facebook page today. She asked, "Do you see what is missing?"  She then said, 'There is not one single entry on Jesus Christ. There are lots of stories on Old Testament men and women, lots of rules and regulations, but absolutely nothing on Jesus. Aren't they supposed to be Christians?"

HWA Wanted Ted To Be Submissive Like Jesus

Is it any wonder that Ted rebelled against his dad when his father made these asinine statements? Imagine having a father that compares you to Jesus and expects you to be submissive in all things.

  UNDERSTAND this! If we are led by the Spirit of God we shall enter into His Kingdom of God at the time of Christ's coming and the resurrection. Will GOD'S Kingdom be divided? 

   Again, we are, so to speak, in the process of being trained for entrance into the Kingdom of God, where WE SHALL JUDGE ANGELS (I Cor. 6:3). 

   A kingdom or a house divided against itself cannot stand! Even two cannot walk together except they be agreed! (Amos 3:3). 

   A few years ago, when I had high hopes that my son, Garner Ted, might qualify in God's sight for very high office in God's Kingdom, I said to him, "Ted, I often think of you and me as a father-and-son team, and how wonderful it would seem if we could be like the Father-and-Son divine Team that heads the entire universe! But to walk together as God and Christ do, we would have to remember that the Son agreed completely with the Father in all things. He said, ‘I have not spoken of myself; the Father which sent me, he gave me a commandment what I should say'" (John 12:49). 

   But as soon as I mentioned that the Divine Son was in total agreement with His Father, Ted would immediately change the subject. Good News  April 1979

E. W. King Also Claiming Zechariah Knowledge

E.W. King has now stepped into the Zechariah fray.  Of course he alone has the correct interpretation.

When will this dick wagging by the various COG's concerning Zechariah stop?  The simple truth is - who really gives a rats ass!  Most COG members could care less.


King writes:

Imagine, the prophet Zechariah was given a vision in which he saw a “flying scroll”. This was not just any scroll. This scroll was “open” and contained judgments. Most biblical scholars admit that this passage is “difficult to interpret” but they do agree that it is a judgment on Babylon [“the land of Shinar”]. Shinar was the region containing Babel, modern Iraq, Akkad, and Calneh. So the message was spread out. Today we understand that Zechariah was shown the Seven Sealed Scroll mentioned in Revelation 5:1. Jesus Christ was shown in vision to receive this sealed scroll and to begin to “unseal” it for His church to understand.

Those of you who have studied this revelation know that Jesus Christ breaks open the “seven seals” on the scroll and begins to reveal what happens on earth at the final disclosure of each of the seals revelations. How does this prophecy come down to God’s church today? Zechariah saw it come from the sky. Listen to these other clues that God has “sprinkled” throughout His word to help us understand how it comes to us.

 “Be glad then, ye children of Zion, and rejoice in the Lord your God: for he hath given you the former rain moderately, and he will cause to come down for you the rain, the former rain [former understanding], and the latter rain [latter understanding] in the first month.” - Joel 2:23

PCG Uses Free Slave Labor To Clean Up Property

The kids attending Philadelphia Church of God's summer campy got a special treat recently.  Because PCG is soooooooooooooooooooo generous and magnanimous in offer summer camps, they feel that the kids need to "pay back" for being blessed to attend such a mind boggling site.

Where else could a kid kneel at the moss covered rock of Herbert Armstrong that was carted all the way from Oregon!  Where could they marvel at the baccarat crystal that HWA bought from Harrods in London because he anted to impress people .

Being surrounded by all of these awesome HWA idols is so amazing that PCG wants their kids to pay for it. So, why not make them clean up God's headquarters in the hot sticky days of summer.

God’s way of life is a way of give and at pyc, campers get many chances to practice that way. One of the most visible ways the campers can exercise the giving way is through the activity called campus improvement, or “CI” for short.

In CI, campers beautify God’s 170-acre campus by assisting the landscaping department, thus giving back to the Church which makes pyc possible.

This is one aspect counselor Ariel Buckler of 5G focused her dorm on before their class. “I told the campers to look at campus improvement as a way to make God’s campus more beautiful,” she said.
The extra manpower comes at the right time for landscaping department manager Carl Hilliker.
“Since I lose all my regular workers during camp, and have fewer workers available, we tend to fall behind in many areas, especially weeding,” said Mr. Hilliker. “So the dorms help us catch up a little bit

What better opportunity to use kids that have been told they must do everything their church leaders tell them.  Being personal slaves is part of the  package.

The boys are particularly used for a lot of work.  One thing they did was clean up the area behind Stevie Jr's home.  We all know that Stevie is toooooooooooooooooooo important and soooooooooooooo busy that he can't clean his own backyard.  I mean, why would he leave his luxurious air conditioned home to do such a lowly thing!

PCG's brain dead members could not agree more. Here is what some had to say:

What a precious time for these young people. Really, this is a privilege especially at this age and in this troubled world. Great!

... it’s wonderful to see everyone pitching in with the work of taking care of God’s land. Good job, campers!

... Pruning, trimming and purging the dead stuff is required in nature, so new grasses, flowers and trees can take root and grow. Likewise, we need to prune, trim and purge the “dead stuff” spiritually to grow and prosper.
