New "Truth"

After a two-month hiatus during which the Spokesman Witness was to have been prophesying every day according to Revelation 11, False Prophet Ron Weinland has finally put another post on his blog site today. I'm quoting the post in its entirety below since he likely will delete it as he has all the posts before April 17. Interspersed are [my comments].

Weinland's post:
***********************************************
Some have asked why there have not been any recent postings on this site. The answer is, I have had nothing pertinent to report. I have been doing what others are doing: “waiting.”

[We already knew that you've had nothing pertinent. And that's still the case.]

As I have stated before, I am waiting until July 16 to see whether the Second Trumpet has been blown by that time, which falls within the 90 days I have referenced. [In other words you'll hang in there on the off chance some terrorist happens to make your Second Trumpet prophecy true.] In addition, God has been showing me things concerning the First Trumpet that will be carried out throughout the time of the first four trumpets. [You mean that your prophecies haven't materialized.] However, I have also known that I was not yet to be speaking about those things and I am only now beginning to “see” why. It is because this is for a later time. [No, it's because you've been pulling all of your prophecies out of your other end.]

Since the timing of what I had stated as being the moment when the First Trumpet was blown (April 17), we have seen no clear evidence on a physical plane of the fulfillment of that trumpet, although it has been stated that such things will be revealed throughout the timing of the entire first four trumpets. [You've only stated this recently. In your blog post of April 3 which you've deleted, you said "The process of all that will occur, with the sounding of the First Trumpet, will begin on April 17th and continue to increase in destructive power (consequences) for the following seven weeks.]

Yet, it should be stated again that “nothing” has been seen as evidence on a physical plane concerning this first trumpet, and there cannot be until later in December. So what has happened since April 17? We do clearly see an intensity in the thunders, but only in the thunders. Earthquakes are increasing in magnitude and frequency on a global scale. [Care to back that up with some actual data? I doubt that.]

The destructiveness from weather is growing far more intense with record numbers of tornadoes. Drought conditions are worsening in some areas of the country, yet others are being flooded. Again, the repetitive nature and frequency of these events is what is important to see. Such events have always been part of the human experience, but the escalation in frequency and heightened magnitude of these events occurring so often is what this thunder is all about.

As far as global economic upheaval, every day there are more reports of serious economic problems in banking, brokerages, large corporations, commodities, transportation, etc. We are now getting very close to a total economic collapse.

Such bad news is becoming so common now that people don’t even seem to take notice, but view it as simply a little glitch that will someday go away and no longer affect us. People are truly becoming complacent about bad news and the true realities of life that are before us all.

[Proof texting the headlines. We could debate whether they really are intensified thunders. But first, what about the Fifth, Sixth, and Seventh Thunders? Tell us about them. When is the First Phase of the Fifth Thunder going to happen? These were supposed to be sounding loudly when the Seventh Seal was opened on March 18th.]

Although there is a marked increase in the thunders, there is still no physical evidence in the trumpets. And even though I have stated July 16 as a kind of deadline for the Second Trumpet, I am now deeply convinced that nothing concerning the trumpets will have occurred by that time. [A "kind" of deadline? What different "kinds" are there? I can think of two: Firm deadlines. And the fake deadlines that false prophets put out there and then move later when they don't pan out.]

This is not pleasant to have to address, as all of us have planned our lives on such timing. [No, not all of us. Just your deluded followers.] If the second trumpet sounds, with nuclear explosions in port cities, then everything will indeed be fully in line with what I’ve stated in the last interviews and in some sermons. But I do want to state again, I no longer believe that to be the case. [Yep, it's the second kind of deadline -- the fake deadline of a false prophet.]

The bottom line is, I must follow what I believe God is showing me. [God is showing you? No, it's reality.] If I have jumped the gun in a couple of interviews and interjected my own understanding into the timing of events, and have thereby been presumptuous, then I will repent and move forward. [No, it wasn't some offhand comments in the pressure of a couple of radio interviews. You followed up the James Whale interview by preaching a sermon on it. Seems to me you mentioned something to the effect that inspired revelations came out of the James Whale interview.]

I have stated all of this because during last Sabbath’s sermon some scriptures I was reading became magnified in meaning (revealed by God), but what was given to me was not pertinent to that sermon. Each day since this past Sabbath, God has been giving me more understanding concerning the timing of events that I now believe I am to address in the Church, but I cannot do so until after July 16. All this will be explained in sermons after that date. [Gotta leave open the faint possibility that it will come to pass after all.]

There is a lot unsaid at this time because there is too much to address in this posting, and these things must be addressed in their full context through sermons that will cover the subject. [Ron has to leave himself some wiggle room and additional time to make up the revised story.] The bottom line is that I know I am a prophet of God and God’s minister under Jesus Christ, who is the head of the Church of God, the Body of Christ. [But still not the widespread recognition that you've prophesied. A prophet in your own imagination.] As such, I have a job to do and I am going to do it. Some will take great delight in some of this because they do not “see” what God is doing and “why.” [Your use of quotation marks around "see" is quite appropriate. More appropriate would be either "hallucinate" or "imagine" without the quotes.]

If what I have now been given to see over the last few days (and I am deeply convicted of this already), then there will be a very big issue addressed on Trumpets of this year. It will be the 50th truth (of major basic truths) God has given His Church in this end-time. [Come on Ron. If you have new "truth" you should not keep it to yourself. Don't make us wait. Set the "truth" free.]

Some of you who read these postings have not been listening to the sermons on the Church website (www.cog-pkg.org). It would be wise for you to begin doing so if you want to understand these things and if you want to begin to truly grasp where we are in time. [Well, I've listened to them and I can tell you that listening to his sermons with the intent of actually accepting what is said would be quite unwise.] There is so much being revealed on a spiritual plane [the only way it could be spiritual is if you drank to much spirits.] that cannot be covered in such postings as this, and you should not rob yourself of such insight and experience. [Insight???? Gimme a break. You're going to make it up as you go along, just as you have been.]

Because of what God has been giving me over the past few days, I now know that I am to resume the trips Laura and I make to scattered areas, and such trips will be planned all the way up to mid-December. [So I guess we'll have an election in November after all. And you'll be able to travel despite the complete economic collapse.] All of you need to begin adjusting your thinking as you plan ahead. You need to expand your planning by several months, which will be explained in future sermons. [Your critics need make no adjustment in thinking, just your deluded followers. I hope they haven't sent you all their money on the expectation that they wouldn't need it.]

This end-time is not easy to address in our lives, and it can be very difficult to make adjustments according to what God gives to us, or may even withhold from us, until His timing and purpose. This is often done for our good, our training, and our growth. God knows what we need and when we need it. It is our choice to follow. So as always, “We follow God!” [No, you're not following God. You're following an Insane Lying False Prophet.]

I don't see this as the beginning of Weinland's "Plan B" leaked by "W" a number of weeks ago. I see it as a different "Plan B" that doesn't involve Weinland's stepping down, turning over the church to his "evangelists", and repenting. I think Weinland intends to hang on to his pulpit and as many of his followers as he can. And get even more if he can. The Google Adwords campaign continues, though he has trimmed the number of words that generate a sponsored link to the toxic website the-end which promotes his books.

There no "New Truth" exposed in Weinland's post. It's just the old truth that Weinland is a False Prophet. Hopefully more of his followers will realize it and leave.
