Kuhn and the "intellectuals." Ministers who should have been fired were
left in. Mr.
Cole
always has worked to keep people "friendly" to him.
As the ancient prophet Eli was condemned and punished by God for allowing
his sinning sons to remain in the priesthood, so ministers who should have
been eliminated were left in. Mr. Cole would offend no one. After Garner
Ted was put out of the Church, Mr. Cole did all he could to keep dis
qualified ministers loyal to him personally, building power for himself.
What has happened, through the years? A power bloc has developed in
the Work--a power bloc headed by these various "heads of the ministry"-
o: ministers that were NOT loyal to Christ or His Apostle, but to the one
�sing politics at Pasadena.
\
�hen the massive invasion by the State of Calitornia struck the Church
on January 3rd, Mr. Wayne Cole and Mr. David Antion called me on a tele
pnone conference call--with both of them on the phone. They raised their
voices to me, '.)EMANDING that I fire Mr. Stanley Rader, and allow the
attorney who brought this evil suit against us to select our defense attor
ney.
'I'his was the last straw. I immediately disfellowshipped both from
the Church. lt has developed also what I felt sure of--Mr. Wayne Cole
was "IN" on this whole conspiracy to bring on the unconstitutional attack
by the State of California. Only he kept his name out of it.
In the emergency, I set Mr. Roderick Meredith as head of the ministry
until I could decide how to eliminate this POWER BLOC by having a man as
"head of the ministry"--which is virtually t'.
1e same as being head of the
Church and the entire Work. Such an office simply does not belong in
God's Church.
�herefore I am ABOLISHING that office entirely. Christ's Apostle is
the human head over the ministry, and MUST NOT BE CUT OFF FROM THE
�INISTERS! Mr. Meredith is being transferred back as Dean of the Faculty
or Arr�assador College.
Jesus Christ is the LIVING HEAD of the Worldwide Church of God, and
c: �he College and the Foundation. I have prayed urgently and repeatedly
�o� His guidance, and I know that I have it.
Jesus Christ has been moving swiftly the past year to SET HIS CHURCH
BrlC� ON GOD'S TRACK� Christ's second coming is near--and His Church is
�OT yet ready. Christ is moving through His Apostle to MAKE US READY!
