biblestudy: The Messenger Of Christ
My Perspective Of HWA
John W. Ritenbaugh
Given 29-Jul-06; Sermon #BS-HW2; 82 minutes
Description: (hide)
In this Bible Study John Ritenbaugh gives his perception of Herbert W. Armstrong, suggesting that Mr. Armstrong was single-minded about preaching the Gospel, sometimes without financial savvy. It is possible that for many Herbert W. Armstrong had become an icon. The scattering which happened in the Worldwide Church of God could have been caused by members making him an icon or idol. As soon as the icon died, the income and membership started to plummet. Herbert W. Armstrong was not the Elijah, but that he was an apostle--one bearing a message. There apparently were four categories of apostles; Herbert W. Armstrong could possibly be in the fourth level along with Barnabus or Silas. Herbert W. Armstrong spent his life bearing a message speaking to his generation in a way they could understand.
