Philadelphia Church of God Now In Possession Of The New Coronation Stone And Throne Of David, Or So It Says

Joel Hilliker has an article in the latest The Philadelphian that discusses PCG's latest ministerial conference.

But in the lectures—of which there were 18, totaling nearly 34 hours of instruction over five days—the theme that surfaced repeatedly was the recent revelation about God moving the stone and the throne of David to the PCG. 

Pastor General Gerald Flurry built his first message, “Micah and the throne of David,” around the scripture that specically discusses a king inside God’s Church: Micah 2:13. He showed how the sins of modern Israel point back to those of Jeroboam anciently, who rebelled against David’s throne and established a new capital in Samaria (Micah 1:5). Micah shows that modern Israel’s wound is incurable (verse 9) and that there is a deadline to the nation’s survival: It will end in the time of a modern-day Jeroboam. Mr. Flurry also talked about the prophecy in Jeremiah 8 of the tombs of Israel’s righteous kings being excavated and desecrated, a sign of Satan’s fierce hatred for David’s throne. “We have to learn to LOVE the throne of David!” he said. 

Love the throne of David, but ignore the one who is supposed to sit on it.

Mr. Flurry’s next two messages centered on “Ezra and the throne of David.” The ruin-raising book of Ezra-Nehemiah is for the PCG today, yet it is missing David’s throne. We are bringing the throne into that picture. He talked about how Ezra established the law and administered God’s government. He also shared new revelation God gave about Jeremiah’s commission, showing how it provides further scriptural proof that a change in the throne was necessary. The first two of these messages were played in all congregations in late July and early August.

In this ROYAL theme that PCG is brainwashing their members with, the throne of David has been removed from the Royal family of England and is now made up of the MEMBERS of the PCG. The Royal Family is now the PCG members and the throne of David that the Queen supposedly was crowned upon, has now been turned over to Gerald Flurry and son.

In his first lecture, “Born to Be King,” Evangelist Stephen Flurry showed video footage of Queen Elizabeth II’s coronation in 1953, revealing how steeped in the Bible it was. He then detailed the problems plaguing the current royal family, particularly since the throne moved this past January [to Edmond, OK]. He then gave seven characteristics we need to develop as God’s king-priests. 

Stephen Flurry amplified that theme in his second lecture, “Step Forward and Lead,” giving practical instruction from Paul’s pastoral epistles on how ministers can implement God’s government in our homes and congregations, and help the Church’s families to do the same. He also gave the sermon on the Sabbath on the subject of “ The New Royal Family,” showing how God’s people today have replaced the British royal family and must act accordingly.

Yep, the women of PCG in their long hair, long farmer dresses, and makeup free faces are the face of Royalty in 2017.  The men with their gray or dark blue suits, usually worn out,  and red ties are the face of the Royal family that their "jesus" is returning to.

 The PCG’s connection with the work of Herbert W. Armstrong, illustrated by his prayer rock being the new stone of destiny, was emphasized in other lectures. 

Herb is rolling over in his grave knowing that Gerald flew to Oregon and dug up a dirty old rock and is now pretending to claim that he (HWA) used to kneel at it in prayer. Talk about idolatry!

Exit and Support has this about Gerald's new vision concerning the new Stone of Scone and David's throne:

Gerald Flurry this Sabbath announced "newly revealed Truth" that the PCGs new "Scone of Stone" is now HWAs old "prayer rock" that they found in the back of an old house Armstrong once lived in. God, according to Gerald Flurry, has moved the Throne of David. Forget the old Lia Fail under the coronation throne. HWA is now, according to Flurry, a "type" of Jacob and his old prayer rock is where the heavenly angels ascended and descended giving HWA (and now by extension Gerald Flurry) divinely revealed truth from God. Flurry has even now supposedly said that HWA's old prayer rock is a throne on which he (Flurry) now sits and rules the "church" (PCG). Jesus Christ is now going to return and sit on that prayer rock as the new Throne of David. The PCG will be taking HWA's prayer rock with them when Trump exiles them to Petra, Jordon. Can you believe this stuff? Have I been handed bill of goods or has Flurry finally went too far? --Former PCG member 

Flurry’s Plane Purchase Was the Last Straw:

June 26, 2017

I have a friend who has left PCG. This person became skeptical back in November when Flurry spoke about Trump being the Jeroboam and then his mentioning about buying a plane. Then in January he gave the sermon about HWA’s prayer stone replacing the stone of destiny (a.k.a. Jacob’s pillar stone) and Flurry saying HWA was a type of Jacob or Israel. And how he, Flurry, is the chosen man on this whole earth privileged to bring the prayer stone to the Place of Safety where Christ will meet up with them and take his rightful place on the throne after Flurry, who is representing the house of David for 2 1/2 years, since he says he is a descendant of David through his genealogy. And finally, once this person got the letter about pledging funds to purchase a plane and then finding out they bought it in April during Feast of Unleavened Bread, this was the final straw. I am not sure what this person will do next. They are looking at other offshoots that follow the Sabbath, but feel that all of them try to control peoples’ purse strings to suit their own agenda by using end time events and the Place of Safety to control them. –[name withheld]

According to Gerald, HWA's supposed prayer rock is "...the most inspiring story on Earth..."

IC Obtains HWA’s Prayer Rock
Philadelphia News, May-June 2002
“Mr. Flurry said he was very inspired by the prayer rock: ‘When you look at the beginning and the end, it is the most inspiring story on Earth because of what it sym- bolizes. Mr. Armstrong felt that the Philadelphia era started with what went on at that rock. It all started with fervent prayer. You can see what it takes to grow.’ It is a reminder of how God begins a tremendous Work, even in personal lives. ‘It comes from having a foun- dation of prayer,’ Mr. Flurry said. ‘God accomplished tremendous things through Mr. Armstrong because he was on his knees. Look at the fruits.’ Mr. Armstrong was able to reach a wider audience than was reached in any other era in Church history. ‘We will use the same formula to propel this Work,’ Mr. Flurry said.”  

One of the reasons PCG bought the Edstone House in England was so that could be closer to the real Stone of Scone and so they would have a close home base when they start excavations on the Lia Fail in Ireland in order to dig up the Ark of the Covenant.

Gerald and Lil'Stevie are deluded if they think Ireland is going to let them dig up a historic hill in Ireland.

All of this just goes to show how sick Armstrongism is at its core.  Herbert Armstrong started this deluded thinking and the Flurry's have elaborated on it.  The emphasis is upon the law, as usual.  By digging up the Ark of the Covenant, they hope to find the 10 commandments inside.  Jesus be damned, those stones are more important.

PCG's Embarrassing Justification On Jet Plane Purchase

The latest The Philadelphian has an article on how glorious it is for the Philadelphia Church of God to now own a jet - just like Herb did.  The miracle of the jet purchase has not been accomplished by any man, but by the god, PCG claims to follow.

“Doors opened faster than I thought. It’s God opening the doors, not a man.” That is how Pastor General Gerald Flurry described the process that resulted in the Philadelphia Church of God purchasing a corporate jet on April 12. 

The histrionics that streams out of the mouths of Gerald Flurry and Stephen know no boundaries when it comes to drawing attention to themselves as the saviors of the PCG.  PCG has been under the deluded impression that they and they alone are raising up the ruins of the decimated kingdom of Herbert W Armstrong.  The Armstrong empire was the most glorious thing that has ever happened to humanity since the law was given on Mount Sinai. The fact that Herb owned three jets while running his kingdom has always been a sore spot in the PCG's status symbol.  In the quote below you will see that Gerald claims the purchase of the jet now completes all of the imitating left to do in regards to copying HWA.

In past sermons, Mr. Flurry has emphasized Amos 9:11, saying that God is using the pcg to “raise up the ruins” of His Work, which col- lapsed after the death of Herbert W. Armstrong in 1986. at work was re-established in publications, television, radio, foreign languages, personal appearances, copyright litigation, sermons, congregations, ministers, youth camps, colleges, a school, a cultural foundation and other projects. Mr. Flurry and other ministers had stated that one of the last major ruins to be raised was the use of a corporate plane to visit Church members and perhaps world leaders, as Mr. Armstrong did. Between 1966 and 1986, Mr. Armstrong met hundreds of presidents, prime ministers, legislators, diplomats, educators, businessmen and other prominent men and women, as well as thousands of Church members and youth.

“This looks like about the last piece of the raising of the ruins,” Mr. Flurry said. “It was just [a matter of] taking it to God and asking Him for guidance.”

God no more had a hand in PCG buying the jet than he did in raising up Bob Thiel.  The god of some of the splinter groups is the most magical god that has ever been invented by humans.  It has inspired men to invent the printing press so that the COG could publish its materials.  This same god invented the radio and TV so that the church could proclaim its message to the world.  This same god also invented jet planes so that COG leaders could fly all around the world talking about the "strong hands of the god who dwells in someplace."

No world leader has yet to accept the invitation from Gerald to come and speak to them about a "strong hand from someplace."  Even the Steuben Crystal gifts have not impressed them enough to invite him.  All that the jet is doing so far is to provide Gerald and Stephen a private flying experience uncluttered by the unwashed masses, germ belching travelers, and tiresome airport security issues.

Gerald was so stuck on imitating HWA that he even made an attempt to try and buy Herb's original jet when it went up for auction in 2013.

On Oct. 7, 2013, the G-iii aircraft Mr. Armstrong had once used came up for auction. Mr. Flurry told a handful of Church o cials to look into the possibility of purchasing the plane or perhaps another used aircraft. 

“I began to think a little about the raising of the ruins,” Mr. Flurry said. “I had been thinking and praying about it for a few months. It seemed to me that there were a lot of things we could do in the Work with a plane.” 

When they could not buy Herb's jet they started a feasibility study into whether or not the church should buy a jet.

Diving into the complex world of used corporate aircraft was a new experience for the team of pcg representatives, who had to consider not only the significant purchase cost but ongoing operating costs, maintenance and hangar costs, staffng costs, taxes, airport fees, federal and international regulations and other factors. ey also considered the city pairs that Mr. Flurry would most frequently travel: Oklahoma City to Edstone, England; Edstone to Jerusalem, and other potential destinations including the Church’s five inter- national offices, 16 major Feast sites and dozens of congregations. The Church budgeted for about 250 flight hours per year. 

As usual with any COG, money was never an issue.  They knew they had a steady stream of income from gullible church members who with member letters, verbal threats and intimidation would fork over untold amounts of money to keep the Flurry family living in luxury.  The PCG 1% club is truly the Mile High club.

In February 2017, Mr. Flurry wrote a co-worker letter introducing an “aircraft fund” and soliciting pledges from those who were able to contribute to it. 

“We were overwhelmed by the enthusiasm of the brethren for this fund,” Mr. Locher said. “Not only did the members and even the youth respond, but we had a stron- ger-than-expected level of support from co-workers. To date, actual donations have kept up with the pledged amount, making it easier for us to take on this additional expense.” 

Now we get to the reasons why Gerald and Stephen needs a jet. It "zaps" Gerald;s energy to fly commercial. It zaps his energy because Gerald is under the same impression that HWA was that he was "special" and of a higher calling than the rest of humanity and deserved the best.

The corporate aircraft solves several problems that have limited Mr. Flurry’s ability to travel. It allows him to work in privacy and quiet. It also bypasses the need for Mr. Flurry to arrive early at the airport, check baggage, pass through security, and fly commercial routes that may stop in other cities before arriving at his destination. This comes in addition to the time spent in the air and stopping at airports to change flights. To fly to Birmingham, England, near the Church’s regional office in Edstone, requires about two hours at the airport and 14 hours of fight time. “[T]hat 14 hours is more of a hassle for me,” he said. “It zaps my energy more.”

With the Church’s new aircraft, Mr. Flurry can drive straight to the private hangar, board the plane and be in St. Louis in one hour. He can be in Phoenix, Houston, Minneapolis, Cincinnati or Chicago in less than 90 minutes and in any continental U.S. city in less than three hours. Mr. Flurry’s 14-hour trip to Edstone becomes an eight-hour trip (not including refueling time) and a six and a half- hour trip from Edstone to Tel, Aviv, Israel, becomes a four-hour trip. 

Edstone England is one of the main reasons for this jet.  More will be written about this in a post to come. The other reason PCG needed this plane is to give Gerald "credibility."  Gerald is still virtually unknown to the world, particularly to its leaders.  He has been so unknown that the PCG has spent decades focusing their attention on present day COG members in the various splinter groups.  It has always sought to entice COG members to join their group, to no avail.

Now that PCG has the jet, Satan is already attacking them. Or, is it Gerald's god "correcting" him?  they claim both below.

On July 16-17, Mr. Flurry and a handful of staff members planned to use the plane to fly to Mr. Flurry’s public appearance campaign in Chicago, Illinois, but a minor accident at the hangar grounded the aircraft, meaning that the group had to charter a jet for the campaign. Mr. Locher said the campaign was a success, “but the accident served as a reminder about our need to pray for God’s protection. Satan would love to disrupt God’s Work, and can do so through accidents like what just happened, so we must all be more detailed in our prayers.” Mr. Flurry said in a sermon that he also considered the incident to be correction from God to focus more on important dates such as July 16, the anniversary of when his founding book, Malachi’s Message, was first read. The wing has since been repaired and the plane is once again airworthy. 

Apparently, the PCG members have not been praying fervently enough to prevent Satan from sabotaging the jet or their god from correcting Gerald.

Gerald is also looking to establish his work in Jerusalem.  As will be shown in a post to come, an office in Jerusalem needs to be secured so that Gerald can take HWA's prayer rock there so that his 'jesus' can come and sit on it.

Mr. Flurry also hopes that doors for the Work will open in Jerusalem, and when they do, the Church will be ready to walk—or fly—through them. He said, “God is keeping us up to pace with racing world events.” 

Gerald is no more a prophet of God than Malm, Thiel, Pack or Weinland is.  All are professional liars milking their members out of hundreds of millions of dollars annually.  He no more needs an office in Jerusalem than the rest of the lying false prophets desire. God is not going to use any of these little men for some powerful work or end time witness in Jerusalem. Why in the world would God need some pissant COG leader doing a work in Jerusalem?

ExPhiladelphia Church of God Survivors Not Afraid To Speak Out Now

The 2018 Feast Site That Will Be Eight Days of Hell

The Church of God always looked at the feast as a foretaste of the Kingdom of God.  A time of eternal bliss, joy, peace, and members being rulers over planets and all of humanity.  Remembering that, can you imagine attending a feast site where all you hear is Moses, the law and focusing on the book of Malachi?

This is exactly what the Pharisaical, grace hating, Jesus ignoring, Zealot James Malm wants you to do.  Eight days of legalistic bullshit.  Zealot Malm shoves Jesus back into the destroyed temple and sews the curtain back up in order to ignore anything Jesus ever tried to accomplish or teach.

Pharisee Malm has reached the pinnacle of zealot-idolatry that places him right up there with the other professional liars and false prophets of Armstrongism - Dave Pack, Gerald Flurry, Bob Thiel and Ron Weinland.

The theme of the 2018 Feast of Tabernacles will be the book of Deuteronomy which is commanded by God via Moses  to be studied every seventh year.  This is especially important at this time because of the drift away from zeal to live by every Word of God, by so many in the Ekklesia in this latter day.

Deuteronomy 31:9 And Moses wrote this law, and delivered it unto the priests the sons of Levi, which bare the ark of the covenant of the Lord, and unto all the elders of Israel.

31:10 And Moses commanded them, saying, At the end of every seven years, in the solemnity of the year of release, in the feast of tabernacles,

31:11 When all Israel is come to appear before the Lord thy God in the place which he shall choose, thou shalt read this law before all Israel in their hearing.  

At the 2018 Fast of Tabernacles we will obey God, Moses and Malachi, and especially focus on the Law of God.  

Malachi 4:4 Remember ye the law of Moses my servant, which I commanded unto him in Horeb for all Israel, with the statutes and judgments.
