Armstrong (HWA) and the Worldwide Church of God (WCG) on five Compact Discs (CDs) that he was giving away free of charge. The five original CDs were: The HWA Literature CD The Good News CD The Plain Truth CD The World Tomorrow CD The Bible Hymnal CD Collections Donald Tiger made a Web site called the Herbert W. Armstrong Library and Archives at http://www.HerbertWArmstrong.org . This Web site's address was not working for a while, for reasons explained Herbert W. Armstrong in the notes below. It became available again, and some new CDs are being offered in addition to the original five CDs. Notes: 1. Contents of the HWA Literature CD Donald H.

Donald Tiger and the Philadelphia Church of God After the death of Herbert W. Armstrong (HWA) in January 1986, Joseph W. Tkach, Sr. (JWT, Sr.) began to lead the Worldwide Church of God (WCG), and started to change its doctrines. In January 1992, Donald H. Tiger left the WCG to go with Gerald R. Flurry and his Philadelphia Church of God (PCG), which was formed in December 1989 and claimed to be holding on to the teachings of HWA. Strangely, the more Donald Tiger worked on the HWA CD project, the more out of favor he fell with the PCG, until he was eventually fired in November 1994, and then disfellowshipped in May 1997. After Donald Tiger was disfellowshipped for giving someone a free copy of his Plain Truth magazine CD, PCG members were told to destroy or return the HWA CDs that they had received. Gerald Flurry planned to reprint only some of Herbert W. Armstrong's writings, and started by reprinting a book called Mystery of the Ages in 1997. The Worldwide Church of God went to court against the Philadelphia Church of God to try to prevent the PCG from reprinting Herbert W. Armstrong's last book, called Mystery of the Ages . The U.S. District Court of the Central District of California decided in favor of the PCG. But, on September 18, 2000, this judgment was overturned on appeal by the Ninth U.S. Court of Appeals in Pasadena, by a vote of 2 to 1. For details of this latest decision, see Worldwide Church of God V Philadelphia Church of God (Case Number: 99-55850, Date Filed: 09/18/00). On April 2, 2001, the U.S. Supreme Court decided to let stand this ruling by the Ninth U.S. Court of Appeals. The WCG had won the copyright court case. The PCG had lost the court case, and the Supreme Court had refused to hear the PCG's appeal. The PCG was awaiting a trial to determine what damages it would have to pay the WCG. So the PCG made a deal to pay the WCG two million dollars (plus another million dollars that the PCG's insurance had paid) to buy the copyright to the writings of Herbert W. Armstrong . The May 2003 edition of the PCG's Philadelphia Trumpet magazine announced the deal. Gerald Flurry then began to edit HWA's writings, including Mystery of the Ages , to bring them into line with the doctrinal changes that he had made. 3. Donald Tiger and the Church of God Around December 1997, Donald H. Tiger and some other former members of the Philadelphia Church of God formed a loose affiliation known simply as The Church of God (TCOG), which now has a Web site at http://www.t-cog.org . Donald Tiger said that there was a problem with someone trying to stop the HWA CD project there too, and that he was asked to leave. It is interesting to hear that only 25% of the people who received Donald Tiger's HWA CDs ever gave any donation at all. People collectively seem to be able to come up with many millions of dollars to support the various self-appointed leaders who want to suppress the HWA CDs, such as Gerald Flurry , David Pack , etc. 4. Donald Tiger and the Restored Church of God In the summer of 1999, Donald H. Tiger was contacted by David C. Pack , who convinced Donald Tiger to go with David Pack's new Restored Church of God (RCOG), which had been formed in 1999 after David Pack had been fired from the Global Church of God (GCG). Donald Tiger's five original CDs had included some Philadelphia Church of God (PCG) literature, which was now removed from the latest ones. Donald Tiger wrote a 10-page letter dated April 8, 2000 , announcing what appeared to be good news about the Herbert W. Armstrong Library and Archives . It was the stated goal of the Restored Church of God to republish all the writings of Herbert W. Armstrong that were in print at the time HWA died in 1986. But, around the very day of the first anniversary of the RCOG, David Pack changed his mind and decided that no HWA CDs or booklets were to go out. Don Tiger was once again left on his own to 2 of 4 2/25/2012 5:09 PM Herbert W. Armstrong Library and Archives http://web.archive.org/web/20071225115157/http://truth.fateback.com/h... try to make the HWA CDs available. David Pack gave a sermonette, dated May 27, 2000, called CDs, Compromise, Conflict & Conscience to explain his decision to reject Donald Tiger's HWA CD project. The basic reason seems to be that David Pack , who had once said that he wanted the members of the Restored Church of God to be the most informed people around, doesn't want everyone to have access to all the Worldwide Church of God literature from the past. To help people to forget about Don Tiger's exhaustive HWA CD project, David Pack announced in a June 7, 2000 Update, to the surprise of some, "You are all aware that a CD of Mr. Armstrong's books, booklets, and reprint articles in circulation at the time of his death is already under way." But, he warned that, "While this is a very special project, it is also an extremely large one as well and will take a significant amount of time and effort to be able to do it properly." Only the wicked should hold their breath while waiting for this new CD to be produced. On the Restored Church of God's Web site, a June 5, 2000 statement appeared about Donald Tiger's HWA CDs, which David Pack was refusing to return to Donald Tiger . In it, David Pack said that another party, which he did not name, was claiming ownership of the CDs. He said that the new (unnamed) party had been "most gracious and accomodating by any standard," and had "produced substantial corroborating evidence that their claim is, indeed, valid." Of course, David Pack didn't give any details. More information about David Pack , from those who know about him and his tricks, has been posted on an Information page at http://home.neo.rr.com/lilshep /bill/information.html at Bill Sheppard's Web site. An unsigned June 10, 2000 Update on the Restored Church of God's Web site happily announced the arrest of Donald Tiger , and tried to make it sound like it was God's doing and not David Pack's . For the rest of the story, there is an article in the July 31, 2000 issue of The Journal newspaper with the heading Friend says Church of God member wrongly indicted . At the time of Tiger's troubles, Thomas L. Munson was the treasurer of the Restored Church of God . He did not like David Pack's behavior and treatment of people like Donald Tiger . Around September 2000, Thomas Munson wrote a letter to the members of the Restored Church of God to tell them what was really going on. A copy of Thomas Munson's letter is available here. The February 27, 2001 edition of The Cleveland Plain Dealer had an article about Donald H. Tiger called Man defends use of multiple names .

  • Where Is the True Church? – and Its Incredible History!) When God Called Mr
    Where Is GOD’S CHURCH? by David C. Pack Herbert W. Armstrong led the Worldwide Church of God (formerly The Radio Church of God until 1968) until his death in 1986. Hundreds of mil- lions heard his voice and read his literature. God called him in the fall of 1926 and he was converted in the spring of 1927. Over the course of Mr. Armstrong’s ministry, God revealed through him a great many true biblical doctrines, which had been lost to the Church through the centuries. After his death, his successors ceased to believe and teach these doctrines. Although copyright law prohibits The Restored Church of God from reproducing and distributing literature produced while he led the Worldwide Church of God, we are committed to the preservation and teaching of all of these truths!

He said, “I will build MY CHURCH”— not “churches,” “fellowships,” “sects,” “denominations” or “communities of believers.” He promised that the “gates of hell shall not prevail against it.” Where is it and how is it identified? What and why is it? You need not be confused.

  • Canadian International Charities by Country Or Region of Operation and Why This Information May Be Helpful
    CANADIAN INTERNATIONAL CHARITIES BY COUNTRY OR REGION OF OPERATION AND WHY THIS INFORMATION MAY BE HELPFUL Countries – S - Z Why is it useful to have a list of Canadian charities organized by countries or regions in which they operate? 1. If you are interested in a particular country, then it is interesting to note which Canadian charities operate there. 2. If you are interested in supporting a particular country’s development efforts, then you have a list of some of the charities operating there. 3. If an individual, organization or charity is interested in conducting a project in a particular country, then they may wish to partner with one of the charities on the ground. People interested in setting up charities approach me frequently, and I usually try to dissuade them. Instead, I encourage them to work with an established charity that has a similar interest. 4. If you are a Canadian charity this list can help you. If you are considering a project in a new country, then you can speak to some of the Canadian charities already operating there. 5. Also, if a foundation, as opposed to an operating charity, has a particular interest in a country they may be a potential source of funds for a charity. 6. Need for greater coordination between charities (greater efficiency), and for donors’ expectations that organizations will work together and not compete for the sake of competition. This information may be useful to encourage cooperation. Limitations and Caveats This information regarding countries in which Canadian charities are conducting projects comes from the 2006 T3010 Registered Charity Information Return and specifically Q.

  • Which Canadian Charities Spent Money on Foreign Activities in 2018 and How Much Did They Spend?
    www.CanadianCharityLaw.ca Which Canadian charities spent money on foreign activities in 2018 and how much did they spend? By Mark Blumberg and Henri Pasha (June 26, 2020) We recently reviewed the T3010 information for 2018. The database was prepared by the Charities Directorate of CRA in February 2020 and covers about 84,270 charities (which is over 98% of Canadian registered charities) and their 2018 T3010 returns. We reviewed the Canadian charities that identified they did foreign activities through funding projects abroad (approximately 3,324 charities identified spending funds abroad). We also list which identified they received CIDA funding and how much was spent on those arrangements. The total amount claimed is about $3,756,814,368. Keep in mind that additional funds are spent by Canadian charities for example when making gifts to “qualified donees” that are foreign universities registered with CRA or UN agencies and they are not included in this document. Canadian registered charities are currently required to disclose on the T3010 on line C4 and Box 2100 “Did the charity carry on, fund, or provide any resources through employees, volunteers, agents, joint ventures, contractors, or any other individuals, intermediaries, entities, or means (other than qualified donees) for any activity/program/project outside Canada? Yes or No” On this list we included all charities who advise CRA that they spend more than $100,000 Those who had answered yes to question 2100 then complete “Schedule 2, Activities Outside Canada” In Schedule 2 - Activities Outside Canada it asks: Line 1 and line 200: What were total expenditures on activities/programs/projects carried on outside Canada during the fiscal period, excluding gifts to qualified donees? $^ Line 4 and Box 220: Were any projects undertaken outside Canada funded by Global Affairs Canada? Yes or No Line 230: If yes, what was the total amount of funds expended under this arrangement? $^ Please review my caveats at the end about the reliability and usage of T3010 information.
