FYI AGAIN's take on the future of Rod and the LCG
LCG is toast
Whether it happens next week, next year, or the year after, it's been obvious to me for some time that LCG is headed for a complete breakdown.Many long time, loyal members have already left, either for one of the other COG groups or dropped out of the COG's altogether. Much of the growth that RCG's David Pack loves to boast about has come at the expense of LCG.And yet LCG's leaders and their proxies on the web continue to act as though all is well and nothing is amiss. To the degree they acknowledge any problem at all, it's always attributed to just a few disgruntled members who are in a "malaise" (another word for "bad attitude").I don't see how Rod Meredith can continue to hold to the delusion that God is somehow working with, even focusing His attention on his pathetic and steadily shrinking "work". By no stretch of the imagination are the fruits of the Spirit evident in anything they are doing - let alone the "gifts of the Spirit" which they've been praying and fasting for over the past few years.There is indeed a malaise in LCG, but it starts at the top and works its way down. Rod Meredith should be taking Jesus advice and look to the beam in his own eye first.
My response:
You hit the nail again FYI Again! Like the rest of us, we eagerly hope it is VERY soon. Even a year or even two years to wait for the LCG's demise is a wee long.
Isn't it amazing that Herbert W. Armstrong found Rod Meredith repellent? Here's a letter written in 1980 discussing this at: http://www.servantsnews.com/PDF/merlet01.pdf

Herbert Armstrong's 1980 letter to Roderick Meredith reads like an email from Satan the Devil to one of his demons.
