Sermon
by Mr Armstrong
The Trunk of the Tree
given Oct 1983 - played Wales UK 1 July 2006
In this sermon, Mr Armstrong gives a complete overview - having just returned from the Feast - and lays out the Plan of God, revealed by Jesus Christ, that we all must hold onto as our foundation - the very Trunk of the Tree. He also states, God says, "Mark those that are causing division, and offenses, contrary to the doctrine that we've been taught through Christ, and avoid them." There are just two ways we can avoid them, one is that if we all get out, we leave the Church and leave them in. The other is if we put them out... If only God's people had listened - and acted on this instruction - when Worldwide first began departing from the foundation Christ laid! (15.0 Mb)

Split Sermon
by Jon Bowles
Watching With Spiritual Perception
given Wales UK 10 June 2006

Sermonette
by Chris Hancock
Firstfruits - Baked With Leaven
given Bristol UK Pcost 4 June 2006
The Grain Sacrifice given at Pentecost was unique, in that it was baked with leaven - showing we are not sinless as are those offerings given to represent Christ. The important thing we therefore have to keep in mind as Firstfruits to God, is that it must be God, not ourselves, that builds what is holy within us.  (1.5 Mb)

Meaning of Pentecost
given Bristol UK Pcost 4 June 2006
This meaning of the day sermon for Pentecost - the Day of Firstfruits - stresses the incredible fact that we are being harvested by God Himself. God is creating within His people, His Holy Righteous Character, and pictures this present Church Age stage of the process as the first harvest.

Offering
given Bristol UK Pcost 4 June 2006
Giving an offering to God must be done with the correct attitude of mind. We have been given several examples within scripture of offerings given from very different hearts. Ananias and Sapphira were certainly one such example, as was the offering of Abraham - both at opposite ends of the scale.  (1.6 Mb)

World Tomorrow
by Mr Armstrong
Christ's Flesh
given 3 June 1979 played Wales UK 20 May 2006
And now, in the preceding program, my friends, we were seeing a few rather strange things that are not generally understood today and certainly not taught in the churches today. Why is it that we do not today hear the same message that Jesus Christ preached - the gospel of Jesus Christ, but rather a different gospel today? A message about His person, certainly, but not the message that He preached. (3.5 Mb)

News Analysis
by Jon Bowles

given Oswestry UK 13 May 2006
This Prophetic News Analysis examines the important difference between the legal systems originally found in the English speaking areas of Ephraim and Manassah - based originally on scripture - and those European areas formerly dominated by the Catholic Holy Roman Empire. Prophecy indicates that the final political-religious system of this present world will be a final resurrection of that Holy Roman Empire. We should therefore be watching areas of the news that point in that prophesied direction - such as the removal of our legal safeguards.  (3.9 Mb)

Or is there far more to her choice of using this protocol. With Israel's new prime minister now in office, the direction this country is now going, also needs to be watched closely.  (3.1 Mb)

Sermon
by Jon Bowles
Fit For the Kingdom
given Wales UK 29 Apr 2006
Christ says in Luke 9:62 that "No man, having put his hand to the plough, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God." Mr Armstrong said in the tape last week that "The Kingdom of God will consist of a family of born children of God - that have the government of God." Do we understand this subject of God's Government, or do we "go back" to the way government is handled in the world today? Five points are covered: The defining element of the KOG; Remembering why we were baptised; All in KOG must both administer and be administered by God's Government; Administering God's Government; Being administered by God's Government.  (12.3 Mb)

My friends, do you know what is the World Tomorrow? It's the very thing that was the subject of the true gospel which God sent to mankind and which mankind has spurned and rejected and which we have not been hearing about for over 1800 years. Believe it or not, the true Kingdom of God has not been proclaimed, and people have not been hearing about it, and that was the message, the only true gospel which God sent by Jesus Christ.  (3.5 Mb)

“Just what is an APOSTLE?”
Just what is an Apostle?

Today we find the Church of God in a “wilderness of religious confusion!”

The confusion is not merely around the Church – within the religions of the world outside – but WITHIN the very heart of The True Church itself!
