New thread up today on Herbert W. Armstrong's break-off splinter groups: You May Be Shocked at God’s answer…Should You Trust “God’s Ministers”? [Cultist: 'Ravenous wolves']

Original link to this article written by one of Herbert W. Armstrong's lieutenants in his cultic warfare...a guy named McNair who was quick to the draw in referencing Worldwide Church of God leaders as...yes, YOU guessed it..."ravenous wolves..." a fave tactic of HWA break-off groups!!!!: You May Be Shocked at God’s answer…Should You Trust “God’s Ministers”?

Authority-wise, McNair doesn't make an appeal to God or Jesus Christ, but to Herbert W. Armstrong:

* "My appointment to serve on the WCG Doctrinal Teams. Mr. H.W. Armstrong appointed me to serve under him over the Headquarters Doctrinal Team in 1974..."
* "My ordination as an Evangelist in the WCG. Mr. Herbert W. Armstrong ordained me as an Evangelist—over 51 years ago."
* "Appointed Deputy Chancellor of Ambassador Colleges in England, and Pasadena, CA. In 1960, Mr. Herbert W. Armstrong appointed me Deputy Chancellor of Ambassador College, near London."

This is what happens with personality cults: Everything is boiled down to the "filter" or "mousetrap" of one single man who isn't Jesus Christ.
