PASTOR GENERAL'S REPORT, May 6, 1980
Page 2
The Kremlin has made its first move toward complete world domination,
on moving into Afghanistan. One more small leap and they are in control
of the Indian Ocean and the Persian Gulf--and in CONTROL of nearly all the
world's oil. The death of Tito, the hostage situation, the United States'
display of having lost ''the pride of our power," all combine to frighten
European leaders, preparing the way for a lightning-fast move through the
Vatican to politically and militarily UNITE EUROPE to protect herself
against a danger OTHERWISE NOW UNSTOPPABLE.
It may not jell so rapidly--yet
I
warn you IT MAY--so rapidly it will
take our breath!
Once the Roman Empire is resurrected in Europe and the Balkans, our
Great Commission will be virtually COMPLETED. Quickly the Laodicean
church will rise up. It will go through the GREAT TRIBULATION. We shall
be taken (by flight) to a place of protection for 3 1/2 years, till the
coming of Christ.
I have rechecked Revelation 3:10 again, and from the original Greek
it definitely refers to our being taken to a place of safety from the
Great Tribulation.
Meanwhile, let us redouble our efforts, and PRAY as never before,
that we draw yet closer to Jesus Christ and to God. Time is short and
daily growing shorter. Please pray for me personally with intensive
fervor right now!

GOVERNMENT AGENCY CLEARS US OF FALSE ALLEGATIONS
Our decision making process
by
Herbert
w.
Armstrong
There are many levels of government in the United States. There is
municipal city government, County government, State government, and Fed
eral government.
God Almighty whose Church we are, has been sued by the government of
the State of California through the Attorney General's office, in a civil
lawsuit. That is, His Church has been sued--and since it BELONGS to God
and is called by His name, the State government is actually suing God
Almighty.
Since Jesus Christ is the living and guiding HEAD of God's Church,
the State is suing Jesus Christ. As Christ's chosen Apostle, the State
government is suing me, and as Treasurer of God's Church they are suing
Stanley R. Rader.
Screaming page-wide, front-page newspaper headlines blared forth that
Mr. Rader and I had been alleged to have siphoned off millions of dollars
every year for our own accounts and benefit. But no such charge was made
in the lawsuit. Instead, the Attorney General claimed that the state
government actually owns, and should direct, guide and manage all churches
