Follow God

Saturday, May 18th, 2013

This post is timed for release at the very minute of sundown in Jerusalem on the eve of Pentecost.  Which is the third time prophesied by False Prophet Ronald Weinland for the return of Jesus Christ.  Unless you see something in the skies that looks like it could be a UFO, then Ronnie was correct in retracting his prophecy in his blog post earlier this week.  Which in no way makes up for having made the prophecy in the first place, his retraction was in the nature of damage control.

As Jesus has not release Ron from his 3-years-plus prison sentence, Johnny Harrell recovered from his reported heart issues to deliver the sermon.  Although his sermon title was “Follow God”, the more appropriate title would be “Follow Ron” as he leads PKG members by the nose from one failed date to another as he picks their pockets.  The majority of Johnny’s sermon was reading some of Ron’s blog postings.

Since Johnny spent most of his sermon quoting Ron, I think it fitting that I do something similar.  I have a great group of commenters, although sometimes it gets a little out of hand.  Here are some great comments from the past few days that are worth publishing on the front page:

JK described Ronald Weinland for what he is:

Ronald Weinland, you are a liar, a fraud, a thieving hypocrite and a hellbound false prophet. You have duped and manipulated hundreds of innocent people, taking their money so that you and your loathsome wife could live in luxury. You deserve far worse than a few years’ prison sentence for all the lives you’ve ruined. Your lies and self-contradictions are both revolting and pathetic. How many more false prophecies will you issue? How many more years will it take before you admit to your followers that you have wilfully deceived them? You know as well as I do that you are not the “end time apostle” of God – if you were, your prophecies would not have failed over and over again. Now you bleat more lies from a prison cell where, if there was any justice, you would stay for the rest of your worthless life.

Many will never forgive you (myself included), but you owe it to those who you’ve wronged to confess your crimes and beg their forgiveness all the same. However, I do not expect you to do so, selfish and narcissistic coward that you are.

Ronald Weinland, you are a vile, unprincipled, shameless and utterly dishonorable man.

“Left at Last” left a comment describing some of the behavior of her family as they awaited the horror that was to precede Christ’s return.  She finally recognized Ron for the False Prophet his his.  Her comment ended:

Since March, life has changed a LOT and for the better. Living it as it is meant to be lived is a whole new ball game. Now it’s all about living and loving life. The whole world is open with endless possibilities and choices to choose from. There are people out there that could use a helping hand or an encouraging word. What you think is a small thing, (or a post of small importance) can be a huge thing to someone and change their life. I’m living proof because your posts changed mine.

Pkg’rs…Take it from someone who’s been on the dark side all chained up in mental torment; and is free from all of that now. There’s joy and happiness out there if you work for it and look for it, and you can be a part of that. Or, you can look for the suffering and horrifying tribulation..to me it’s death versus life. I’d rather look for life. :D

Montayo has some great advice for PKG members who leave:

I cannot say who has gained what from all the posts over time on this blog, but for any PKG members reading this since Ron’s (fudged) capitulation in his latest blog post may I encourage you to take what you find resonates with you and focus on that. Pretty much anything that you have experienced in PKG has also been the experience of at least one other person here, and pretty much whatever path you follow in the future at least one other person here will have started down it before you and survived. From now on, please, please follow no more leaders, no more prophets, evangelists, imams, gurus, rabbis, pastors or anyone else without remembering how wrong you were in following Ron.

Hear, hear, Montayo.  Just like I always say — do your own thinking and don’t turn it over to others to do for you.

A Faithful Witness Does Not Lie

Saturday, May 11th, 2013

On this, the last sabbath before the third time that Christ returns, Johnny Harrell did not take his turn at filling in for False Prophet Ronald Weinland who claims that he is falsely imprisoned.  Perhaps Johnny is still recovering from the reported heart attack.  Instead, Terry filled in with a pre-recorded sermon that was posted on Thursday evening.

We massive destruction imminent during the next 7 days before Christ returns making the beast power think that aliens are invading on UFOs.  Did Terry give a message on how to prepare?  No, instead he blathered on about mundane topics such as favorite seasons.  He did make an ironic statement chosen for the title of this post.  Continued reports are that Laura is claiming either that Ralph Dowd either has dementia or suffered a stroke, or plans to start his own church.  I believe the reports that none of this is true about Ralph Dowd.

Indications in comments are that PKG is crumbling under the weight of unfulfilled and Ronnie’s dissembling blog posts.  A commenter going by “Foxglove” who I believe is in a position to know is reporting that others in the Cincinnati area besides the ones named have left, and others in Missouri and Louisville.  “Frank” reports that Charles Blummer down in Texas is no longer an elder.  Charles has other relations from the area in PKG as well.

This posting is being published exactly one week before sundown on the eve of Pentecost in Jerusalem.  From indications, I believe that there will be a significant Exodus from PKG on Pentecost.  Ron will probably have yet another incoherent post on his blog next week.  I certainly hope so, as I think his post are counter productive to his purpose in writing them — they will cause more PKG members to leave sooner.

Blasphemer Ron

Sunday, May 5th, 2013

Wayne Matthews gave the sermon for the 14th sabbath of False Prophet Ronald Weinland’s imprisonment for criminal tax evasion.  “The Promise” refers to that of eternal life for the 144,000 which is to begin for certain PKG members, not on the first or second scheduled return of Jesus Christ then it must happen really-for-sure-this-time on the third return in less than two weeks, right after the blowing of all 7 trumpets.  Since time is so short, will be like a marching band.

It is OK for PKG members to be mocked for obeying God.  But if they are mocked for derogatory actions, then they blaspheme God’s name.  Let’s review the record: court testimony was that Ron spent God’s tithe money, on BMWs, deep tissue massages, and custom suits and then did not follow Jesus command to render to Caesar that which is his.  As a result, he has been roundly mocked.  Ron the Blaspheming False Prophet.

Some have commented on this blog that Laura is telling PKG members that ex-senior elder Ralph Dowd has suffered a stroke.  I am not confident in that report as it may be second-hand and I don’t know what Laura actually said.  I am much more confident in a report that Ralph Dowd did not suffer a stroke, regardless of what Laura might or might not have said.

Just under 13 days now until the next time Christ doesn’t return.

Are You Living the If?

Saturday, April 27th, 2013

With only 3 more weeks before the end of the Great and Terrible Day of the Lord and the return of Jesus Christ, False Prophet Ronald Weinland continues to lounge in Club Fed.  Perhaps he is using his sabbath to compose a post for his blog which is more rational than the one earlier this week.

Therefore, it was up to one of his flunkies to deliver the sermon.  This week it was Terry Wrozek.  For some reason, Terry’s sermon was not delivered “live” but was pre-recorded.  Maybe PKG has only one laptop with software installed to connect to the streaming audio server.  Seems to me that it wouldn’t be that difficult to set up another so Terry could take it on the road, maybe to Denver.  It’s been a couple of weeks since a trip for one of Ron’s flunkies was posted on Ron’s blog.

Terry’s sermon was directed at retaining members.  He asked rhetorically whom they were listening to.  PKG members need multiple layers of filters to protect their minds from rational thinking.

At one point Terry said “Blog, blog, blog” in a mocking tone.  Perhaps this blog and its commenters are having a greater effect than I thought.  I have received several reports including in comments that the following individuals have left PKG:

  • Senior Elder Ralph Dowd.  Ralph has been a PKG member since the 90′s, and often traveled on his own nickel to hear Ron speak at distant locations including Hawaii.  Ralph was called by the government as a witness at Ron’s trial, and attended the sentencing hearing.
  • April Combs.  April I believe was an elder and at times ran mail lists for PKG member.  April also testified as a government witness and attended the sentencing hearing.
  • Hope Henson, another Cincinnati area member and related to April.
  • Shawn Christal from the St Louis area (reported to have stepped down as an elder so may still be a PKG member)
  • Senior Elder Scott Cameron, Ron’s brother in law.  (reported to have stepped down as an elder so may still be a PKG member)

Whether or not this blog had anything to do with this, I hope it is true and that more will soon join them.  Three more weeks to the very minute of this posting until the next time Christ doesn’t return.

 

Beware of Being Beguiled

Sunday, April 21st, 2013

As the Day of the Lord has not yet become Great and Terrible enough to free False Prophet Ronald Weinland from his imprisonment for criminal tax evasion, Johnny Harrell gave the sermon.

He warned PKG members to beware of being beguiled by intellectuals who would logically point out facts.  Perhaps facts such as that none of Ron’s prophecies have come true.  The demonic world is very persuasive, and PKG members are no match for the spirit world.  Instead, PKG members are to keep the faith that we are facing the most destructive times that will happen in a short time.  But if not, they are to be prepared to turn right and left as God progressively reveals the Present Truth (TM) when Christ does not return for the third time in 27 days.

A Way of Life

Sunday, April 14th, 2013

False Prophet Ronald Weinland’s imprisonment for criminal tax evasion is scheduled to continue on until February 17, 2016. Absent intervention by Jesus Christ, he was not able to deliver this weekend’s sermon so Wayne Matthews stepped in.

Wayne’s sermon is entitled “A Way of Life”. God’s way of life is perfect. According to way, PKG members look odd because they follow it and therefore are regarded as belonging to a sect. But they can look forward to the resurrection, beginning with those in the 144000.

What makes PKG an insane cult is that the God and Jesus which PKG members follow is the one between Weinland ears. Who is not the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever. But who makes up new Preset Truth (TM) when his discernments fail to materialize. A PKG member’s way of life is work to support the Weinland family’s lifestyle and turn left or right depending on the whim of the god between Weinland’s ears.

I wonder if we’ll get some new “truth” in this week’s blog posting from Weinland’s. Less than 5 weeks before the next time Christ doesn’t return.

Closer Service and Fellowship

Sunday, April 7th, 2013

As False Prophet Ronald Weinland continues to serve his prison sentence, his surrogates continue to fill in for him.   According to the “Trips” page, the special visitors to Denver this weekend are Terry Wrozek and his daughter Amanda who works as a hair dresser.  Nevertheless, Johnny Harrell continued his sermon series giving it a new name of “After the Resurrection”.  Prayers were delivered by Larry Spivey (who edited Ron’s books) and Paul Giles who live in central Georgia.

Johnny had a couple of announcements.  First, he announced that Beth (Bucheit) of Cincinnati was raised to senior elder.  So now Beth is the same rank as Audra but I doubt that Ron has bought a BMW for her or is paying her mortgage and other bills.  Then Johnny read a letter from Ron.  In it, Ron referred to a letter he had previously sent to the ministry.  A copy was left as a comment on another posting.  While I have not been able to authenticate it, I believe it is genuine and repeat it here:

It has been good to hear from the ministry and other brethren about their personal response (and often of specific examples) and/or that of others concerning sermons, posts, and excitement of this Holy Day season we just experienced. In all this, as a result of being so involved in the knowledge of the personal lives and battles of most all of you and that of so many of the rest of the brethren, it has truly been inspiring (overall) to see so much spiritual growth and maturity in so many. Much of that maturing development has actually become more manifest since May 27. Such development and growth has much to do with how you have responded spiritually to God since that time.

Yet not all have responded well and some are not growing spiritually as they should and could be. The greatest times of testing through some of the most difficult trials (in fire) provide some of the very best opportunities of overcoming and growth we could ever hope to have. Such things are (can be and should be) received as awesome blessings afforded to us by our great God and very loving Father. These are moments, while in God’s most loving care and concern for us, where the mind can receive some of the most exciting advancement in transformation of mind that is possible.

When I have made statements, even up to the very last of the messages I gave in sermons, about some leaving “this way” even up to the very end, I know that such statements just do not “seem” possible to most. Yet, it should be sobering that we have just had two from the ministry who have chosen to leave this one and only true way that God has given to all of us. A little letting down here and there (a little slumber), some flirtation with sin, a bad attitude (from selfishness) that is allowed to express itself just too often, and then all of the sudden one is struck down.

Are all of you seeking to sacrifice for other brethren? Do you push yourself and go out of your way (over and above) to fellowship (perhaps even longer at times) with others in person, by email, or phone conversation? Isn’t that part of your ministerial job, let alone part of your Christian duty? Is that part of what God expects from His “servants” who have been given opportunities to be a source of some added strength and encouragement to brethren? One may ask, “But what difference will it make if I do such small things?” It will do ABSOLUTELY NOTHING if you don’t do them! One’s life in the ministry is one of service and it is especially manifest in the “little things” one does toward others. If one isn’t continually focused on doing even the little things, then the BIG ones will never come. If we are “faithful” in a little, then we can be given much more. If not, then what? Is ordination in name only (for being esteemed before others) or does it carry great meaning and purpose from God and His Son toward us for the sake of the Body?

I had debated whether or not to use the next example, but it is clear to me that this message is to all of you from God. When I felt compelled to write you this morning, I really had no idea what could or should be said. As I sat down to write, God has made it clear!

There are some verses I am now going to refer to and you should read all in their complete context, but I am only going to quote a few here. The whole teaching of Christ in this is in Matthew 25:31-46. “For I was hungry and you gave me food. I was thirsty and you gave me drink. I was a stranger and you took me in, being naked you clothed me, and being sick you visited me. I was in prison and you came unto me” (Mat. 25:35-36). Jesus was asked, by those who were living righteously, about when they had done such things unto him: “The King shall answer unto you, ‘In as much as you have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, you have done it unto me’” (vs. 40).

In times past, I have referred to these verses to explain a lack of understanding of these verses, as this is first and foremost about those “in” the Church and of those being called into it. Doing as Christ said unto any of these is to do so unto him (his Body). The purpose for mentioning this here is because I have been more than a little dumbfounded that within God’s ministry there are some who have not communicated with me (come to me) here. This is only about “you” if this fits you. Do I “need” to hear from everyone? No. But everyone should have come (needs to have come) to me. The bottom line is that this is indeed a measure of where you are spiritually. If it is simply out of neglect or one of putting it off (or some other menial reason), then it is “still” a spiritual measure that should be sobering to every person.

This is not a matter of what I feel about such a matter (though I am in full agreement with God’s spirit), but it is a matter of asking how does Christ feel about your neglect toward him. In addition, this is “every” person’s responsibility in the ministry and not just of a husband or wife’s duty (of those ordained). Such attitude or neglect also reflects something that is spiritual. What kind of friendship, what kind of love, and what kind of gratitude does such a thing reflect? It reminds me of the ten lepers that I recently quoted. I’m not just speaking of that shown toward me, but toward Jesus Christ and God our Father. What does this say about that which God has provided to such a small remnant while all the others scattered are malnourished and suffering greatly from continued famine? What does this say about that kind of response toward the one God gave as an apostle to lead, feed, help mold, and to share his life with you? If one will respond to God’s physical leader on earth in such a manner, then please acknowledge that there is shown far less care and concern to the rest of God’s Family!

So, will there be even more within the ministry itself who will not enter into the promised era (promised land) that is right before us? I for one pray that such will not be the case, but without repentance it will be.

These things are all said from deep abiding love (agape), meaning that the real source, and abiding care in all this is from God our Father and Christ, His Son.

Again, I encourage all of you to be constantly sober minded and on guard spiritually because we are right now “in” the very midst of the greatest battles ever waged. Laura and I have great love for each and every one of you and the whole Body of Christ, and we want to see you at the end of all this (no matter “when” that is), but more importantly, God and Jesus Christ have far greater love toward you in this. Always be thankful to them for all experiences in life that you are given to live, as these are gifts from God.

Our love,
Ron & Laura

If rumors are true, then the two ministers who left PKG may have more significance than being just two of the large number of PKG members ordained in the last three years.  In any case, it is good to hear that more are leaving.

Below is the closing part of Ron’s letter as read by Johnny, with {some commentary in italics}:

I am doing quite well in every way considering the circumstances. {The circumstances of being a failed false prophet imprisoned for criminal tax evasion.} It is all for a purpose and some of that purpose is for your sakes and your learning, some now and some in the future. {The purpose is to warn others who might have a notion to avoid giving Caesar that which is his.} Please continue to hold fast to the truth God has given and remember that this way of life is not about how much truth and knowledge you know, {since there is no truth in PKG, it has to be about something else} but it is about how you treat one another and live toward one another and all others.  With mercy, forgiveness, kindness, care,  and all those things which reflect the true love of God. {That’s not what I’m hearing from exiting members.} Even to sacrifice in a self and selflessness in order to give. {Definitely give — to the Weinlands.} Laura and I love you all and deeply look forward to the day, whenever that day is, {the Bureau of Prisons has not announce a release date, but probably in February of 2016} that we can once again work together in closer service and fellowship with you.

The closer service Ron desires is that his members don’t leave his fellowship but continue to pay tithes to service the extravagant lifestyle that he and his family enjoy.

 

A Great Spiritual Exodus

Sunday, March 31st, 2013

During this holy day season, False Prophet Ronald Weinland remains tucked away in the Terre Haute Federal Correctional Institute since the Day of the Lord has not yet become Great and Terrible enough to free him.  So PKG members were treated to not-so-Great-but-still-Terrible sermons from Weinland’s trio of evangelists.

Johnny gave the sermon for the first day of Unleavened Bread, Wayne for the weekly sabbath, and Terry’s sermon for the last day is already posted.  Johnny and Terry started out there sermons in Deut. 16 about the special offerings and Johnny telling the scattered members to just mail it in.  Laura, Audra, and Jeremy still have expenses.

Johnny has at last finished his multi-part sermon on the “Road to Crucifixion”.  He reminded us that someone always wants to be in charge.  Wayne discussed the story of Moses and the Israelites’ departure from Egypt.  The trumpets will sound soon, and people will wake up with a great spiritual exodus before Christ returns.  Seems that he’s not communicating well with Jeremy about sermon edits.  At one point he misread the statement about the great spiritual exodus, and so he reread the statement.  Or maybe the PKG cash flow is reduced or diverted to paying Ron’s tax bill so Jeremy has to get a real job.

Terry’s sermon for tomorrow is on deliverance.  PKG members are to cry out for deliverance.  What PKG members need to be delivered from is their bondage to a failed False Prophet, and there deliverance is in their own hands.  The spiritual exodus will not be great, as most PKG members will continue to follow Ron and believe whatever nonsense he comes up with to explain the third failure of Christ to return in less than 7 weeks from now.  Based on comments left on this blog by departing members,  a few are undergoing a spiritual exodus from the Egypt of their bondage to Weinland.  Hopefully more will soon join them.
