Gerald Weston wrote to the membership of the Living Church of God on February 16th. Like all good Church of God leaders it is a letter filled with doom and gloom. It is filled with death, destruction, Herbert Armstrong, jackbooted Germans, concentration camps, British Israelism, and not one original thought from mind. Everything that comes out of the Living Church of God is stuck in the past.
But a man by the name of Herbert W. Armstrong was warning about the downfall of America and the British-descended peoples of Canada, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, and the democratic countries of Northwestern Europe long before I heard any of this from my father. Mr. Armstrong was seeing the world through the lens of biblical prophecy and an understanding of the KEY to those prophecies—the biblical identity of modern nations! Even when Germany was lying in rubble following the Second World War, he predicted it would rise again to challenge the Israelite- descended peoples. And now, from German-Foreign-Policy.com we read the following: “The weekly ‘Die Zeit,’ once considered a liberal journal, carried an article on Chancellor Merkel entitled, ‘Leader of the Free World? Of Course!’ claiming the German Chancellor could even become ‘the savior of the free world’. . . major German media organs again depicted Merkel as ‘US President Trump’s adversary’” (2017/01/26).Weston, like Bob Thiel, Dave Pack and Gerald Flurry have to invoke Herbert Armstrong's name and teachings as validation for their respective groups erroneous beliefs.

Dr. Roderick C. Meredith was an early student of Mr. Armstrong, and he has continued to proclaim the same message: if our modern Israelite nations do not repent, we will be overthrown and go into captivity! Once you understand the identity of modern-day Israel, not merely the tiny Middle Eastern country called Israel, but the descendants of Joseph who were given great promises of incredible prosperity and power at the end of the age, the world suddenly comes into clear focus. As a man from Colombia once passionately told me after reading our booklet, The United States and Britain in Prophecy, “Finally something makes sense. I’ve always known you guys were not smarter than us!”No Church of God leader has ever been as great as Rod Meredith. This has sent Almost arrested Bob Thiel into the major butthurt zone.
Dr. Meredith, the Presiding Evangelist of the Living Church of God, has for more than 64 years fearlessly and powerfully warned where we are heading. It saddens me to tell you this, but he is not well and appears to be coming to the end of his days. His mind is excellent, but his body is not. He and his family would appreciate your prayers at this time. However, he put in place a fine team of men and women to continue this warning, as well as to proclaim the wonderful news of the coming Kingdom of God, the time when Jesus Christ will return to straighten out this mess. That is the time when the true servants of God will be resurrected to assist in solving mankind’s fundamental problems.With Rod Meredith on his deathbed, Weston is gearing up to become the face of the LCG.
I wonder that "work" Weston is talking about? LCG is virtually unknown by everyone. No one knows who Rod Meredith is, what he has said or anything about his message. World governments have never heard of him.This Work will continue with that mission. As Dr. Meredith has always emphasized, it is not any man, but Jesus Christ who is the Head of this Church, the Living Church of God. We believe you are a co-worker with us because you believe in that mission!
Weston will inherit a divided church that will rupture. He will never be able to preach any significant gospel message. No one will listen to him. No one will care.
Weston's "god" is getting ready to wreck havoc on the world. Apparently God has been refrained from wiping us off the face of the earth, all thanks to Herbert Armstrong
God is incredibly patient, and He gives mankind more time than we deserve, but time IS running out. Even though my father foresaw the coming downfall, I doubt that he understood just how morally degraded we have become. Storm clouds are on the horizon for any who have eyes to see. A time of darkness is coming and our time to finish this Work is limited. Please pray that God will open the doors and give us the strength and the courage to walk through them. May God the Father and Jesus Christ be with us to finish the Work He has commissioned us to do!
