An LCG source sent the following to me regarding LCG's renewed focus on disfellowshipping and marking. The Church of God has always used these as a weapon to instill fear in members that if this ever happens to them then they will be entirely cut off from God and will go through the tribulation, losing their salvation, and any chance of ever being a god or goddess in the world tomorrow ruling over planets.
Is Weston warning his followers to be ready for a new round of disfellowshipments and markings? After all, we are in troubling times and the end is near as trouble makers in the church are seeking to cause members to lose their salvation. Or, so we are led to believe.
Thought this may interest you and others. Gerald Weston tries to put a soft "marking" on anyone that causes "disruption", even when they are "nice"! We all know that causing "disruption" could be applied to pretty much anything they want (they already accuse people of causing "division" who don't do exactly what they are told). Obviously this soft marking strategy is a tactic to control the flow of information to members - they might learn that their pastors acted like an overlord.
