holder of that office insisted heatedly that I fire our attorneys who
are defending us in this massive state action, and let the Receiver
(who was constantly with the attorney who brought the suit against us!)
choose our attorney. Have you ever heard of such a thing--trying to
have the prosecuting attorney select the attorneys to defend us! It
was then revealed to me that those men were secretly IN on this
persecution, hoping themselves to take over the leadership of God's Church.
Oh yes, there really was a "power struggle" going on. There really
was a conspiracy, which I sensed at least four years ago. But now GOD
IS CLEANING HOUSE!
Jesus Christ is drawing us CLOSER TO HIM! He is drawing the
overwhelming majority of us CLOSER TOGETHER than we have ever been!
He is setting His Church back on HIS track--and His College as well! He
is weeding out the liberals who love many of the ways of Satan's world.
GOD'S CHURCH IS BEING CLEANED UP! And now, for the first time
in ten years, WE ARE NO LONGER DIVIDED! There is no longer any "power
struggle" or politics to remove me and take charge.
But this war is not yet over by a long way! Brethren, without
our impassioned heartrending deadly-earnest PRAYERS, with FASTING to:
1) each set ourselves right with God, and 2) to cry out to God to
deliver us from this monstrous action, our attorneys could well yet
lose the WAR! But if we unitedly seek Him, CHRIST will deliver us,
and HIS WORK shall be finished!
He started building the spiritual Temple, to which He shall soon
come, through me 45 1/2 years ago (Eph. 2:20-21). And I believe He will
finish it through me (Zech. 4:9).
Some few of you who will read this have been holding back your
offerings and God's tithes, perhaps waiting to see how this crisis comes
out. But NOW is the time when your help is direly needed! I have to
say to you now, as Elijah said to ancient Israel; HOW LONG HALT YE
BETWEEN TWO OPINIONS? IF THE ETERNAL BE GOD, FOLLOW HIM; but if the
god of this world be Satan, then follow him! The time for standing
up and showing where you stand is HERE! God's sifting time is here!
God is TRYING us now, as never before!
Our attorneys feel that it is not yet safe to send God's tithes
and your offerings to Pasadena. Some of the mail processing staff has
been moved here. They pick up the mail and process it, just as they
did in Pasadena.
So continue to send it in my name, Post Office Box 431, Tucson,
Arizona, 85702.
Brethren, THANK YOU A MILLION TIMES FOR THE WAY YOU HAVE RALLIED
BEHIND ME SO FAITHFULLY AND LET'S CARRY ON UNTIL GOD GIVES US VICTORY
COMPLETELY."
With great love, in Jesus' name,
Herbert W. Armstrong
