World Headquarters Building Updates

Since the groundbreaking ceremony last week, May 10, God has blessed the area with clear, dry weather. The site has been full of activity and exciting progress is being made:

• An on-site building trailer is in place.
• The construction road has been cut and will soon receive layers of stone.
• Excavation of the foundation for the Hall of Administration is underway.
• A staging area has been completed to receive the array of building materials soon to arrive.

Eight images have been posted on the Headquarters Complex page. These provide a much closer look at the campus from multiple angles.

The Restored Church of God Staff Attends Groundbreaking Ceremony

Headquarters staff, volunteers, ministers, wives and children gathered on Thursday, May 10, for the official onsite groundbreaking ceremony commencing construction of its new World Headquarters Complex in Wadsworth, Ohio. The ceremony took place where the cornerstone of the 40,000 square foot Hall of Administration will be laid.

Mr. David Pack turned the first shovel of earth and gave the signal for construction to begin on the temporary road that will lead to the construction site. Permits for this phase of the project were granted by the City of Wadsworth, and enable Medina County to now issue the final shell permits to begin excavation.

World Headquarters Building Updates: Six “virtual tour” videos have been posted to supplement an array of images. These tours provide a much closer look at the Administration Building from multiple angles. As work continues on the land, 3D models of the building, topography and landscaping (including modification of the lake) will also be updated.

Vital, Eye-opening New Sermon: The book of Revelation twice describes a group called “the Synagogue of Satan”: “...I know the blasphemy of them which say they are Jews, and are not, but are the synagogue of Satan” (2:9) and “I will make them of the synagogue of Satan, which say they are Jews, and are not, but do lie; behold, I will make them to come and worship before your feet, and to know that I have loved you” (3:9).

What is the Synagogue of Satan? Who are they? Do its members meet as a group? Is it a particular organization? Was it the WCG apostates? Is it false Christianity? Or something else? Can we know—conclusively? How do its members “blaspheme”? What does it mean “say they are Jews”?—and how do they “lie”? These imposters are shown to persecute Philadelphia at the end. How do they do this? And how do their actions relate to you?

God intended His servants at the end of the age be able to answer these and all related questions (Rev. 1:1)!

Mr. Herbert Armstrong wrote and spoke little or nothing directly about this “synagogue,” although he left certain unmistakable clues that speak volumes in finally identifying them. The sermon includes these clues—and how they help connect the dots. As with everything else in the Bible, the term “synagogue of Satan” has been misunderstood and misrepresented in the world, and even been hijacked by anti-Semites and other racist groups to serve their own Satanic agendas.

Titled “The ‘Synagogue of Satan’ Identified—and Marked!”, Mr. David Pack’s sermon shows how the Bible—God!—interprets exactly who are these people—and explains the grave implications for those held under their destructive influence! The sermon at a point includes a public “marking” (Rom. 16:17) of certain men—there could be many more—and why this has become necessary. The delivery is meticulous, and removes ALL DOUBT in one of the most compelling messages you will ever hear.

Mr. Pack states, “I cannot think of a more important sermon for God’s people at the end of the age. Every member in LCG, UCG, COGwa, PCG and COGaic—but also those in every splinter and sliver!—should hear it, and probably more than once. The listener will almost certainly want to do this.”

New Article for WCG Splinters: Isaiah 58:1 describes a commission—a special duty. Herbert Armstrong understood and fulfilled it. Quietly rejected as “too strong for today,” this all-important command has now been universally forgotten. An electrifying shock to the senses, Mr. Pack’s unique article “‘Cry Aloud, Spare Not’—What ALL Forgot!” will destroy your comfort zone!
