The following are quotes from Mr. Armstrong in an article he wrote in 1939.

“The true Christian must be willing at all times to be corrected and chastened — and must continually seek to GROW in knowledge as well as in grace!”
-Herbert W Armstrong(Good News Magazine, February-April 1939)

“At Mt. Sinai, God set up AN ORGANIZATION. Make no mistake about that!
“In our quest to learn WHETHER God's people should join themselves together in an ORGANIZATION, having CHURCH GOVERNMENT, let us begin by recognizing that in the beginning, at Sinai, God Himself formed His people into an ORGANIZATION, having GOVERNMENT.”
-Herbert W Armstrong(Good News Magazine February-April 1939)

“It is IMPOSSIBLE to have ORGANIZATION, or GOVERNMENT, without having a MAN as the actual and real head, even tho we SAY Christ in heaven is the Head, and continue to try to believe it that way.”
- Herbert W Armstrong (Good News Magazine February-April 1939)

“When God first set up AN ORGANIZATION on earth, the people who formed this organization were MARRIED to the Lord. It was this MARRIAGE that bound Him and His people together.”
- Herbert W Armstrong, (Good News Magazine February-April 1939)

“It was this marriage, then, that established ORGANIZATION and GOVERNMENT among God's people.”
-Herbert W Armstrong (Good News Magazine February-April 1939)

“We want to repeat that. We want you to understand it — for it is of great importance — it is the KEY FACT upon which the real truth, so long hidden, really hinges. IT WAS THE MARRIAGE THAT FORMED GOD'S PEOPLE INTO AN ORGANIZATION HAVING CHURCH GOVERNMENT!
“That being so — and it IS so, and none can deny it — then it naturally follows that THE ORGANIZATION and the GOVERNMENT of God's people, at least as ordained and sanctioned by the Lord, EXISTED ONLY AS LONG AS THE MARRIAGE UNION WHICH ESTABLISHED IT!
“If the marriage was done away, the ORGANIZATION and the CHURCH GOVERNMENT was at the same time done away. For it was only this marriage relationship which established the organization — the kingdom — the government, both civil and ecclesiastical.
“When God first proposed the Old Covenant marriage, (Ex. 19:5- 6), He promised His people that IF — notice the IF — they would be obedient, as a wife should to her husband, they would become "a kingdom of PRIESTS, and an holy NATION." In other words, a GOVERNMENT of a religious character — a CHURCH GOVERNMENT!
“This is repeated in Leviticus 26. There the blessings to accrue for obedience are enumerated, together with the PUNISHMENT for DISOBEDIENCE. And what was that punishment to be?
“Notice it! — "they that hate you shall REIGN OVER YOU . . . SEVEN TIMES" — or 2520 years! (Verses 14-28).
“Look at it, in your own Bible. If Israel, the WIFE, married unto the Lord, proves disobedient, Israel is to LOSE her government. No longer to be AN ORGANIZATION! Enemy nations shall REIGN OVER — rule over — the Israelites. “Their own government no longer will rule them. No longer will they be an organization of their own.
“This God threatened to turn the GOVERNMENT — THE ORGANIZATION, if you please, over to the GENTILES for 2520 long years, TAKING ORGANIZATION AND GOVERNMENT AWAY FROM HIS PEOPLE!”
-Herbert W Armstrong (Good News Magazine February-April 1939)

Dear Mr. Dean,
“And this have ye done again, covering the altar of the Lord with tears, with weeping, and with crying out, insomuch that he regardeth not the offering any more, or receiveth it with good will at your hand.Yet ye say, Wherefore? Because the Lord hath been witness between thee and the wife of thy youth, against whom thou hast dealt treacherously: yet is she thy companion, and the wife of thy covenant. And did not he make one? Yet had he the residue of the spirit. And wherefore one? That he might seek a godly seed. Therefore take heed to your spirit, and let none deal treacherously against the wife of his youth. For the Lord, the God of Israel, saith that he hateth putting away: for one covereth violence with his garment, saith the Lord of hosts: therefore take heed to your spirit, that ye deal not treacherously.”(Malachi 2:13-16)

The marriage covenant we made at baptism, is the point in our lives where we told God “All that you say to do, we will do”!

We entered into a marriage covenant with Jesus Christ and we were added to the spiritual body of Christ.

This marriage covenant, organized the spiritual organism together into the Worldwide Church of God. The Church of God well organized.

In the Philadelphia era, it was through one man, like Moses, in which we have been organized!

Mr. Armstrong wrote in that same article quoted above, “But what of the separated individual believer, who tries to GET his salvation all by himself or by following some MAN or any of hundreds of professing Christian denominations of our day? He is CUT OFF from that TRUE teaching, which Christ reveals to and through His apostle!
What if one in the Church disagrees on some point of doctrine? Then he is out of harmony with God's Church. And GOD HAS ONLY THE ONE CHURCH.
And all in the Church are commanded to speak the same thing — and it must be what CHRIST, either in person or by written Word, has taught His apostle.
To the church at Corinth, the apostle Paul wrote: "Now I beseech you brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye all speak the same thing". (1 Corinthians 1:10) Some of them wanted to follow Peter, some wanted to follow Apollos, some Paul. But PAUL was their apostle and Christ taught them by PAUL.
The separated individual believer will follow his own idea of God's truth. THAT IS NOT GOD'S WAY.
God in His almighty wisdom, has raised up the CHURCH, as HIS MEANS of teaching all the SAME TRUTH — all speaking the SAME THING! Not each individual his own thing!”(end quote)

When we recognize how we received the doctrines of Christ, we do give honor by acknowledging Mr Armstrong as the instrument and apostle whom Christ used to give us what we believe! Just as the children of Israel recognized that through Moses, God was leading them!

Christ taught us by Herbert W Armstrong! The only apostle in the Philadelphia era.

So when we were baptized, we entered into a marriage covenant with Jesus Christ and then were given ORGANIZATION, or God’s Government, which formed us into the Worldwide Church of God!

That is the wife of your youth, spoken about in Malachi 2.

Now when people tell me the Worldwide Church of God was destroyed, annihilated etc, I wonder if it isn’t a demon spirit behind them talking against the marriage covenant!

To the disobedient, they lost the Lordship and Government of God, and so the organization of the Worldwide Church of God was lost to them! They left the Church!

So we see the destruction of those in various high positions within the Church, as they lost the ORGANIZATION which is connected to the marriage covenant with Christ!

Some have left the Worldwide Church of God, with complaints, with criticism, and with the goal of rewriting the New Testament marriage covenant! They organize together under terms and conditions, they put together.

Now when compared to the ORGANIZATION of the Worldwide Church of God through the apostle, of which we have already been added to spiritually….there are some big differences, and even a small difference is wrong! Why is it wrong? Because when we made a covenant with Christ, we did not dictate to Christ the terms and conditions of that covenant!

These new organizations have attempted to humanly correct Jesus Christ, concerning problems they saw with the Worldwide Church of God! Thus they have presented their own covenant, and now expect God to accept them on their own terms!

They have ran to Babylon, to incorporate, to create their ORGANIZATION. That is fornication, as we are supposed to be waiting as a bride for Jesus Christ!

We have no right, to ORGANIZE like Korah did outside of Moses, or like Aaron and Miriam did when they say they too were Holy and that God spoke through them! That is following MEN.

Now of course Paul was a man. Mr Armstrong was a man. But they were the men whom God chose and used to organize all of us in the Body of Christ!

So these COG groups are like the individuals who have left the Church to try to gain the Kingdom and enter the Kingdom of God their own way, by their own terms and conditions.

When you enter into a covenant with them and their Jesus, you deal treacherously against the wife of your youth. The Worldwide Church of God!

You realize your ministerial authority, is with your covenant you made with Jesus Christ in the Worldwide Church of God?
How can you prepare the bride, if you are floundering with another woman? Because the organization of another church, is a daughter of Babylon, and certainly not of God! And enjoying her delicacies and charms and receiving a payroll from her, interferes with your job and function inside the ORGANIZATION of the Worldwide Church of God!
Isn’t that why we can hear how the Worldwide Church of God was “destroyed” or was “annihilated”.
Have you lost the ORGANIZATION or the Government which God put inside of the Worldwide Church of God?
Does this other ORGANIZATION give you more control over things? Like Pharisees under Rome?
What happens when Rome takes full authority? It happened to Israel and Babylon!
They tried it with the 1979 receivership!

I’m a member of the Worldwide Church of God because I have a marriage covenant with Jesus Christ, and He ORGANIZED me as my head into the Worldwide Church of God, through the apostle. And if I keep my eyes on Jesus Christ who brought me here, and acknowledge whom He used to reveal His truth to me, then I am not following after men nor my own ideas!

The creation of the 1993 regional structure, was an act of disobedience. The result was the loss of the Organization called the Worldwide Church of God.

Those inside are still inside, while those who lost it have lost it. They had to go to the governments of this world in order to organize themselves and create a new covenant that JESUS CHRIST WILL NOT ACCEPT! It is that serious!

That is something I do not want to strengthen people in. To help people commit fornication and forsake the marriage covenant? Aren’t you supposed to be preparing the Bride?!? Why sabotage the bride of Christ then, by leading them to another woman? That’s what you do when you attend these groups. That’s why I haven’t attended them!

Lift up the stumbling blocks! Prepare the way so the people may escape and be ready for marriage with Jesus Christ!!!
Responsibilities are hard. Our example can lead many astray.

But remember God is a merciful and loving God, quick to forgive. As long as we humble ourselves and repent wholly unto God!

You have already been duly appointed as an administrator of the Worldwide Church of God , its work, assets and its activities. That is your ministerial assignment. You already through your marriage covenant at baptism, are part of the ORGANIZATION of the Worldwide Church of God.
Do not forsake the wife of your youth in order to be organized with those who have been disobedient.

It may have not appeared like the UCG was founded on disobedience at the time. Satan is clever, and everyone may have had good intentions but Satan does best what he does.
We need to acknowledge where we have been wrong, that we are wrong, and repent and turn around fully into God!

That disobedience has separated the membership and ministry of the Worldwide Church of God, to make another covenant and organize themselves into a new group. This is not holding fast.

Your obedience has been noticed by God. Has it not? I don’t see why any of this would be brought to you otherwise. This is about the Bride of Christ! And getting ready! And preparing the bride!

Let us renew our vows to God! Stop sleeping around! Stop being indifferent and lukewarm!
Let us not deal treacherously with the wife of our youth!

In Christ’s service, May God’s will be be done and may we be the thunder that follows,

Zechariah 6:10,14 describes Josiah-Hen a specific household. In Hebrew you read from the right to left, so Josiah is a descriptor. That descriptor means “supporter of Yah.”
The early disciples of Jesus Christ were Jews, and the house of Hen changed their descriptor to be “supporters of Christ”.
This is the origin of the name Kit-Chen.
Or Christian.

And so when the Papal Bull declared those who Judiased on the Sabbath day, anathema from Christ, and therefore was tortured and murdered by Roman Authorities, they declared all Christ-hens to be killed! So the true Church was persecuted and went into hiding.

The Kitchen name persisted in Scotland and England. And we can see the Roman authority constantly bombarding that area to wipe out family lines who were not in league with their “Christianity”.

The Scone Abbey has an inscription, that states “The Church of God”. It is said that Joseph of Arimathea, a man from this household, purchased seven hides of land and built what became Scone Abbey, as facilities for the Church of God. They were later burned and taken over by Catholic monks.

Aaron Dean writes: “In 1979, I faced a really hard decision. One of many that I've had in my lifetime, but this one came because of the receivership. January 3rd, 1979. A lot of you weren't even born then. Some of you were there. A few, if you were in Pasadena. Michelle, when they came in that day, they came up to the door. They locked the doors to the executive office. Michelle worked in the executive office. She stood there and held the state of California out. They threatened her through the glass doors. They said, we're going to take pictures of you, so if we arrest you, we'll have that. She held her ground. It took three days before they got in. I know it's hard for you to imagine my wife holding out the state of California.

But she can be tough when she needs to be.

The court appointed a receiver did take after three days in the offices. They went in and collected all the papers and everything there because the court had given an order that the receiver was placed over the church. Mr. Armstrong was no longer over the church. The receiver said that Mr. Armstrong is fired. I'm in charge. Of course, that didn't go over well with all of us. But at the same time, it was the government. I had been helping with legal documents during the two or three months that they were in the church. The lawyers asked me to do something that I really didn't expect and didn't even know if I should what I would do with this. They asked me the question, why aren't the members upset that the state of California took your church? Because we obey government. That's why. It seemed different. That was what the world did, though. The world held signs up. Placards. We see them every day on the news now. People for this, against that, things that are crazy.

We were taught obedience and not to go against governing authorities and protests and that type of thing. The lawyers said, you know, the court is taking the lack of response by the members to be a sign that you want them to come in and take over your church. So you disagree. You have to do something. I was 26 years old. Didn't really know exactly what I would do, but I was being asked to do something that seemed like civil disobedience. Should I do it? It was a dilemma. I saw the need because the state did not have the right to be there. Should I? Shouldn't I? Which scripture to apply? I couldn't ask Mr. Armstrong because the lawyer said this has to be a grassroots movement. If they call someone up on the stand, they didn't say, yeah, why are you here? Well, Mr. Armstrong told me to be here. That wouldn't be exactly grassroots. Very awkward. I thought of the story of Esther. Who knows if you come to this throne in the kingdom for a time such as this? Everyone knew I worked for Mr. Armstrong, and so I had a voice. Was I there to do this since people would listen to me?

I began calling members in Southern California asking them to come take the buildings.

They were going to lock the receiver out and not let him back in.

We called, and by the evening time we had called over 5,000 people and asked them to come take the hall of administration. Some didn't come. Some did. I told people matter of conscience. I didn't judge anyone one way or the other what they would do. But the words, death and life, were in the power of the tongue. A few words and 5,000 people were going to come in civil disobedience, at least that was what it was saying, to take the buildings. Would I be arrested? Worship? Would I be fired by Mr. Armstrong? Was I misinterpreting scripture?

Of course, as far as I was concerned, they were defying God. They were taking God's property. At least that's how I saw it. They were Goliath. I didn't know what would happen. I did know, legally, civil resistance can occur. It's only a crime if you commit a crime or if the states, the government, and the courts later say that it was a crime. Members came. For three days, it was on national tv. Mothers with their babies came, stood there. We had services down in the main lobby of the auditor of the hall of administration. The press and even the police were sympathetic to our cause. It brought national attention. The world took notice. So did the court. Yes, you are a church, and your people do care. A few words, 5,000 people. And yes, people judged people that came and people judged people that didn't, unfortunately. But there's a balance in submission and resistance. Faithfulness to God's higher power is what's required and should be our response to authorities. But sometimes it's a gray area. Sometimes we don't know. Of course, you can repent if you're wrong, but of course, gliath may kill you, too. That's the other side of that coin. Get to pray for wisdom. We should all seek discernment in navigating those situations. Situations that we may soon come in as the world collapses under Satan's sway and all sorts of edicts will probably be made. The conflicts between God's law and human government will probably be magnified over the next few decades.

God says in James 1.5, if anybody lacks wisdom, let him ask. We all need to ask consistently for wisdom. Now, lest you think I was stupid, I did call Mr. Armstrong that night. I told him I had 5,000 people coming to take the buildings. And I asked him if I was right or wrong. Do you want me to call him back and tell him not to come? He thought for a minute on the other side. I could hear the pause, and he said, Is God's property?

Take it. So we did.”

So Mr Dean was responsible for the 5,000 brethren, the grassroots movement that stood up in protest against the California receivership in 1979, by taking possession of and using what belonged to God!

This is what we the membership of the Worldwide Church of God are doing today. Fighting for what belongs to God. Standing up for what belongs to God. Even coming together in Jerusalem, to make that known and to make known Mr Aaron Dean belongs to God! Not to the United Church of God, nor to any other church! He is a brand plucked from the fire. He is the Administrator of the Worldwide Church of God!

The mantle of authority he has in THIS CHURCH was delegated to him BY THE APOSTLE. This is his assignment!
None of us had a say in it, and so none of us has a say in it now. We cannot go and speak a lie, nor should we. We cannot say he has zero authority in the Worldwide Church of God. But now we ought to do right and raise awareness for the truth, edify him for the sake of his ministry, and strengthen the brethren so his work may be effective!

People may wonder why I went to Jerusalem earlier this year. It was to stand up in protest. To declare what belongs to God belongs to God! Just like those 5,000 brethren did when they took the Church property and did their sit in, when it was being taken over by outsiders.

I’ve always wondered why does the Church go to Jerusalem and flee from Jerusalem? To declare that which belongs to God! Just by showing up as the church, keeping God’s Holy Days.

And that’s what I’m doing. And I am not deterred!

Mr Dean, belongs to Jesus Christ, and so the Lord rebukes the Devil, in the name of Jesus Christ! Is He not a brand plucked from the fire?

Song: Oh Israel!

The Modern House of Israel is with MANNASSEH and EPHRAIM.

The United States of America and THE United Kingdom and British Commonwealth are the modern people of Israel!

Judah, is the tribe of Judah.

So listen to this song, about us!
