PASTOR GENERAL'S REPORT, September 5, 1979
Page 5
there is no shepherd ... my flock was scattered upon all the face of the
earth, and none did search or seek after them.
"Therefore, o ye shepherds, hear the word of the LORD·; Thus saith the
Lord ETERNAL; Behold I am against the shepherds;" (be careful this does
not apply to any of you) "and I will require my flock at their hand, and
cause them to cease from feeding the flock; neither shall the shepherds
feed themselves any more....
"For thus saith the Lord ETERNAL; Behold, I, even I, will both search
my sheep, and seek them out" ... (at Christ's second coming).
I will break off there, for lack of space. But chapters 5 and 6 of
Ezekiel, combined with Leviticus 26 and Deuteronomy 28, and other scriptures
such as Matthew 24:21-22, Jeremiah 30, show the United States and Britain
are going down, down, DOWN, into utter defeat, slavery, and dire punishment
for our national SINS.��
Beginning 1800-1803, we inherited the vast national promises of material
wealth, power, and prestige that God promised our father Abraham. We have
enjoyed a living standard higher than any nation in history.
Yet what have we done with these blessings? We have turned from our
GOD and, in all our educational process, have taught instead the godless:-­
theory of EVOLUTION. We have allowed our FAMILY LIFE to be destroyed. Our
morals have sunk into the cesspool. We have endorsed and given our nationa4
blessing'to SODOMISM. We have been unethical and dishonest in our business
and commercial dealings. We have rejected God's Sabbath (not this Churchj,
and God's ways, and turned to Satan's ways.
The sun already has set on the British Empire, which as an empire
exists no longer. The United States is now caught in the vise of INFLATION,
and an economic situation where our high living standard is being swept
from us. Down, DOWN, we go!
And soon God will send such drought that it will bring disease epidemics
that will take the lives of a third of our people! After that, our CITIES
shall be destroyed--which never could have happened before WE first invented
and produced NUCLEAR MASS DESTRUCTION. The remaining third()f our proud
people will be REMOVED from this country into SLAVERY!
Those left of us finally will repent. God says He will not make a FULL
END of us!
Finally (Ezekiel 20:33,42), "As I live, saith -the Lord ETERNAL, surely
with a mighty hand, and with a stretched out arm, and with fury" (the last
plagues) "poured out, will I RULE over you: ... And ye shall know that I
am the LORD, when I shall bring you" (not Judah, the Jews, but our people
ISRAEL) "into the land of Israel ... and there shall ye remember your ways,
and all your doings, wherein ye have been defiled; ...e.nd ye shall loath your­
selves ... and ye shall know that I am the LORD ... O ye HOUSE OF ISRAEL"
(Not Judah, the Jews). Then shall come the KINGDOM OF GOD! Satan shall
be banished. Christ with the Church converted to spirit immortality shall
rule! Those still living shall have learned their lesson.
And PEACE, and HAPPINESS, and JOY shall flood the earth!
