Hi,
Well we watched the Message to the Senior Rotary Club of Athens. SP-50. It was a very good message. I wonder if those business people still alive would like to comment. It will be hard for many to grasp that a true minister of Jesus Christ had mercifully come among us as a worldwide community of nations and individually. The door to preaching in Public has now been closed for 30-years. In past history 30 years is of some small but not nil significance. Opportunity is said to 'knock once' but I rather think that is human reasoning but still the preaching is over. I hope all those who walk in the faith are able to grasp that when and if they die out there will be no more faithful brethren upon the Earth to fulfil the promise through Paul that those who 'remain alive will not precede those who have died in the faith.'
This is a point to contemplate. Our YES kids have by and large followed the Pied Piper - JT Jnr. The desolation of the organised Body is now complete with all but a few WCGers going over to Sunday-keeping with GCI. Even those not 'going over' still fellowship. Many following RCM seem unstable and led off the path - although it does appear some are trying to recover but his mind-power has still influenced them and given them a mindset that accuses us and others as 'stay-at-homes'. A point which, incidentally, is actually incorrect.
Being 'marked' by RCM in an unofficial way since no 'stay-at-homes' are members of his flock is weird. How does someone on equal status suddenly assert spiritual authority over his peer(s)?
Truly Jesus Christ's call following the last Laodicean minister, Herbert W. Armstrong, is the only relevant one. Let us knock and the door shall be opened to us. Let us open the door to Christ's knock and we shall sup with Him and he with us.
Remember the power with us is infinite. In every way the power will get us through. We don't need the backing of a divine-service provider organisation, we do this at a meal with the host male taking the lead in prayer over some UB and wine (we use mulberry and grape or other homemade wine). We don't need How to have Passover at Home articles. God leads and blesses the process. We are simply not dependent on apostate ministers for Feast of Tabernacles sermons. Don't we have Clayton Steep, et al via hwalibrary.com? What is the purpose of www.herbert-armstrong.org? When we pray at the evening meal of a new moon does not God correct us if we have the wrong day by accident?
Ask God to show you Pentecost. We did and we were shown.
Our growth into God's nature is sure. Don't ever forget this.
