I did quite a bit of research on this church and Armstrong a few years ago. I knew it was a cult as my neighbor got sucked in, got pregnant by a follower, left her husband and two children to be part of this group. Both she and her married BF left everything behind and never looked back. Long sordid story. I had never heard of Armstong until then.

I did not know the author of this thread was a follower so thank you for the information.

This needs to be repeated...and in larger type:

So, Douglas, tell us, since you're our "thread expert" at FR on "tree analysis": Is Bonfire's (now former) neighbor a "good tree" or a "bad tree?"

From the cultist H.W. Armstrong's "1975 in Prophesy", illustrated by Basil Wolverton. It's notable that ol' Basil was also featured in MAD magagine.
