Yeah you just had to tell me that didn’t you?

“The real reason for James’ post against me seems to be that I have sometimes provided quotes and biblical proof as to why he must be in error (it seems unlikely that he actually read the book as his conclusions suggest ignorance of its contents and conclusions, though his biases would likely affect his conclusions even if he had read it). And James Malm remains in error as the 1335 days could not start in 2008 nor 2009 as he has insisted.”

I hate it when people act as if they can get into someone else’s head and declare “the real reason” their opponent says something.

That last sentence makes me laugh. Ad hominem argument. In other words, “Here’s the real reason he said I was wrong…..oh and by the way, he’s wrong about other stuff.”

They are in it for the money!

J: My impression at least as of late is that James Malm is careful to point out that these are prophetic speculations. For the timeline that paralleled Ron’s current timeline, if he couched it in speculative terms last year it didn’t register with me. But to his credit he was quick about acknowledging that it didn’t happen, by the next day IIRC.

Kirrily: I think the occurrence of the rapture will be no different regardless of your time zone. Meaning it’s a non-occurrence.

RK: I’ve had some critical exchanges with James and he’s well aware that I don’t buy his speculations. But he considers me more civil than Thielogical Bob.

Aggie: James is a fellow citizen of your country. From what I’ve seen of James he’s rather legalistic. But at the same time seems to have more humility in his little finger than Weinland has in his whole body. I don’t know what Herbie’s $100K is about, must have been an offer Herbie made in a sermon or article somewhere. Maybe James explains that in the link adjacent to the reference. I have not studied Malmism to any significant degree — Weinlandism is more than enough of that, thank you very much.

Hearsay on AW suggests Thiel is a reformed Catholic, which certainly explains a lot. Also indicates why he has not been ordained in Meredith’s organization, despite being the members’ unofficial mouthpiece.

“I might point out that I believe that Tkatch was A false prophet, just not THE false prophet: and NOT because Tkatch departed from HWA, but because he departed from sound doctrine.”

Wait, what? How can Senior be a false “prophet” when he didn’t (that I can recall anyway) make any prophecies?

“R Weinland has also departed both from sound doctrine (Biblicly, and therefore is a false prophet) and also from HWA doctrine (these two are not always the same thing).”

“Sound doctrine” and “HWA doctrine” are not the same thing? Was Malm ever a church member? That sentence doesn’t even parse, coming from a True Believer’s keyboard……

“The times of the gentiles are not some vague complicated fantasy as imagined by Hoeh”

Malm’s a Brit is he? Questeruk mentioned during the latest creationist vs. atheist debate over on AW apparently Hoeh’s wacko theories didn’t hold much water, across the water. So to speak….

“The Wedding Feast & The Resurrection which reveals what the Bible says about going to heaven. I wish HWA were alive so I could collect his $100,000.”

Herbie’s hundred thousand? What’s Malm babbling about here? “Going to heaven”? Sounds like Malm’s departed as far from Armstrongism as Weinland.

….my head hurts….

“Did I miss something? When did Bob Thiel start speaking as a prophet? A book, huh?”

Thielogical Bob Reveals All! (Hint: It’s the Mayans. No, really, it’s the Mayans.)

For me as well, trying to keep up with all of the prophets, and others who have special knowledge about what God is doing is a little much.

One thing that I will say for James Malm, though, that is refreshing to see;

That is, it looks like you (Mike) and James can discuss these things in a civil and open manner, which is the way things can be learned.

And also that James at least seems to have the attitude of; Well, this is what it looks like to me. I could be wrong, and we’ll find out soon enough. And if that be the case, I’ll have to re-think and re-study things.

That seems to be a reasonable attitude to me, anyway.

Whereas Ron Weinland’s attitude is a million miles from that. Totally dogmatic, he’s God’s prophet, God reveals things to him only.
He’s the only one with the “truth” etc. etc. etc., and yet he’s afraid to come on a website like this one and have an open and civil discussion about what he claims.

Too bad.

I almost forgot to mention something extremely important regarding October 21st as well. If anybody out there is having any kind of serious surgical procedure, make sure the doctor isn’t a Christian.
