After Herbert W. Armstrong died in 1986, the Worldwide Church of God (wcg) quickly began to turn away from the truth God had taught through him.

Revelation 3:9 reveals something shocking: Within the Church in the Philadelphia era, under Mr. Armstrong, a “synagogue of Satan” existed. The devil set up his own church right inside God’s Church—while Mr. Armstrong was alive! This satanic plot almost succeeded in the 1970s when Mr. Armstrong was close to death. He recovered and regained control of the Church, but that “synagogue” remained. Then when he died, the Church transitioned into the Laodicean era, and Satan’s “synagogue” took over (verses 14-22).

Realize how Satan can work through people. He even got some top ministers to bring in what the Apostle Peter called “damnable heresies” (2 Peter 2:1). It took Satan about five years to destroy 95 percent of God’s Church. Five years! It is astonishing how successful those satanically inspired men were at destroying God’s Church!

Letters

I like people like Gerald Flurry, who put insight into the Scriptures.
S. K.
Thanks for this teaching! Great topic that we definitely all need to know and determine when that is.
B. S.
I refer to your recent letter welcoming me as a new co-worker and laborer with the Philadelphia Church of God. I’d just like to say how honored and privileged I feel to be considered in such a way, and hope to continue to support God’s Work diligently through prayer and financially into the future.
E. S.
I would just like to say that I am so impressed with the message that I am reading in this booklet. It is helping me to deepen my understanding of the Bible and is a joy to read. The doctrine is very inspirational, helping me to build a desire to learn more. Many thanks.
K. M.
I love what you people are doing. I very much wanted to go to Tampa to hear Mr. Flurry, but I didn’t have a ride, but I love your material. I was a Seventh Day Baptist when I was younger, and I am so glad that I found people who keep the Ten Commandments.

Malachi’s Message
This is a story about God’s Church gone off track and what God did to correct the tragedy.
Herbert W. Armstrong founded the Worldwide Church of God in 1934 (though it began with a different name) and led it for over 51 years to its height in membership, global impact and income at the time of his death in 1986.
Soon, however, disturbing and significant changes in Church doctrine began to be introduced. The changes revealed a diversion in course, one that led to catastrophe.
