If you are new to Ronald Weinland and have been surfing the Web to learn more about him, no doubt you’ve encountered his “critics” and “skeptics”. These people label themselves these names for a reason – they want you to believe they are just that.
These “critics” are anything but that – most of the time, they are bitter, envious, small-minded people who take great joy in declaring Ronald Weinland a “false prophet“, all the while declaring how unbiased and objective they truly are.
I created this blog because I was disappointed to see the discussion dominated by these types of people – and any opposing opinion was quickly swatted down – on their blogs, forums, or other such discussion venues.
I know that other people like me exist – those who aren’t followers of Ron’s church, do not tithe, have never been baptized – yet still find his words interesting. I know that a hunger exists for a truly critical, fair-minded approach to analyzing Ronald Weinland’s prophecies – and that up until this blog’s inception, no such place existed.
Let me re-iterate. I do not care for those with an ax to grind. I do not care for those who unreasonably possess a virulent hatred for Ronald Weinland. This will not be their soapbox. There are plenty of places for them to vent their anger. This is not one of them.
This place is for those who are either believers or undecideds – for those who give everyone a fair shot before making a decision. I have created this place for them – for solid, intelligent discussion relating to the pros, cons and merits relating to Ronald Weinland’s prophecies. If I had any advice for those that wish to stir up drama, it would be to not bother posting comments here unless you are of a sound mind. Do not bother commenting unless you are ready to take a calm, levelheaded approach to genuinely analyzing the prophecies of Ron Weinland.
Until then, remain silent.
This seems a needed website, but your language on another site could cause problems. If you’ve listened to the older sermons, something I highly recommend, you’d find even the word cr-p is unacceptable.
While God will save 1/10 of 1/3 of the US’s population, the rest will not accept Him. I don’t think Ron’s predictions will be so obviously fulfilled. The world in the incredible majority will not accept Ron & Laura, in this life. But they will in the next — or they’ll be dead and forgotten forever!!
One thing I’ve gotten out of my new studies (baptized last October) is an incredible understanding of, and love for, the Bible!
Like I said before, Sister Ri, I’m not a member of his church. I don’t tithe, I’ve never been baptized, I’ve only listened to sermons. I’m far from perfect.
I’m just a guy who thinks what Weinland says makes a lot of sense and is going to see if it comes true. But sometimes my emotions get the better of me – especially when I repeat the same point over and over again and still some choose to misunderstand.
Understood. In fact being a member won’t automatically make you perfect. Ron says even those who have been sealed can sin still. We are admonished to repent daily.
I don’t pay tithe either. The money I get is not income, so I don’t have to give the church any money. What I send in is considered “offering.” In fact, if I wanted, I could get it back, but I don’t want to.
I don’t know whether you’ll get too many responses. Members of the body are generally quiet.
But, no one is perfect!
Well, like I mentioned in my first post, I didn’t create this blog for the church. I created it to counteract the venomous, bile-filled anti-Weinland sites out there.
Plus, I felt there was a need for a forum where honest, unbiased discussion of Ron Weinland could be had. I am trying to educate people honestly about who Ron Weinland is; I am not really interested in contacting the church or it’s members.
If he really is the witness, and his prophecies do come to pass, then I probably won’t be living much longer anyways. In that case, I hope that the information accumulated here will be of some help to others – that is, if it survives my passing.
Citizen X,
I realize that you did not create this blog for the church, although you will come to find that any who are truly open to the subject, and are not unkind to RW, etc, will eventually become members of the body, or they will become nasty, too.
All you need to do to meet God is to humble yourself toward God (that is, throw pride out the window). Don’t worry about whether or not you are right, that’s not what’s important.
Ooh, I don’t mean to teach! I am only a disciple, myself. When you are ready to become truly humble, you’ll look to Yahweh’s current voices – Ron & Laura Weinland – instead of another person or yourself.
I love your website – it’s nice to read these notes!
Hi Everyone,
Just thought I would comment and thank Citizen X for setting up this page. It is great that someone has taken the time to set this page up – believe me it will be one of the most frequently hit websites in a few months or so!
I found the truth in November of last year after searching for most of my life. I was brought up in the Catholic church but soon escaped after leaving home – thankfully. That was the time when I really began searching for God and trying to find out where he really was in this chaotic planet we call home. My search led me to numerous Christian websites, numerous interpretation of scripture and numerous interpretations of the book of Revelation – all to no avail. I so much wanted to find a place where i belonged spiritually, and to know that what i was doing was right in the eyes of God.
I came across Ronald Weinland’s books on yet another day of searching. I downloaded them and remember thinking “He’s being quite specific – who does he think he is??” lol Human Nature huh? They actually sat on my hard drive for 6 months and somehow i forgot about them, but i found them by accident again in Nov and once i started reading, I couldnt stop. Each page i read, my mind felt more and more cleansed as i realised EVERYTHING i had been taught in my life was a lie. As Ron says in his sermons, i couldnt explain it, I just knew it was the truth!
So I changed my lifestyle, started obeying God in the sabbath etc and as i did, my conviction became stronger and stronger. In the beginning I wanted to share it with everyone i knew – but as I have learnt since, only God can do that. I have lost a lot of friends over this as they think I have gone mad, but that’s ok because finally I have a relationship with God The Father and that is worth more than anything.
I was surprised when I started to look online that mostly when people were talking about the books and Church of God, it was pretty much all bad press. I wondered why people couldn’t see what I saw. I wondered why people made such putrid comments and personal attacks on people who believed, but God quickly made me realise it was because they hated the TRUTH. I also realised that the people making the comments were ex-members of WWCG under Herbert W Armstrong and were part of the scattering and therefore it made perfect sense that they couldnt see what i saw as they had been ’spued out’ a long time ago. I was witnessing first hand what it would be like to have had the truth and lost it and the way the human spirit changes and becomes unbelievably proud, vindictive and self-obsessed without God’s spirit in your life to correct you. I really felt sorry for these people but I know God has a perfect plan and that they will again know the truth one day.
I think we have had a tough 6000 years and I am so glad that the end to all the suffering and pain is coming to an end. The countdown has already begun for Christ’s return and the world is oblivious to it. We have been shown the truth and need to hang on to it with all our being because God is revealing himself to us so we can witness the new age that is coming! Truly mind-blowing.
Welcome Britishbeliever,
I cannot tell you how comforting it is reading your testimony.
God brought me to the truth this year Feb, also by leading me to read Mr RW’s book.
I was not even searching, just praying to God to make me a Christian, as when I tried to do it on my own I kept failing and falling back into the way of the world.
When I read the book it took me 24hrs to finish and REPENT. I had no doubt that God was speaking to me here for the first time ever! (I am sure he spoke to me many times before, I just could never here like I did this day!)
I was the same, wanting to share the good news with everyone I cared about. But experienced same reactions as you encountered.
It really brought me down in spirit, but God brings you through it and having the knowledge and excitement of what is to come out sways any other emotions.
I just wish I could share it with a like minded person face to face though. I am wondering if I am the only South African that God has thus far brought to repentance?
I have encountered a small group of about 40 United Church of God brethren and I pray so hard that God may show them the truth like he has for me.
I am still waiting.
They are all from WWCG mostly over 50 years of age, but very loving individuals who show gods love, yet one can see that they are still fast asleep to the truth.
Just wanted to say “hi” and thank you for your words of comfort.
I am a God-chaser & I want to do what God wants even though people scoff…I have been askingI found the end times site through an internet search of basically what was happening in the world…with the earthquakes in various places & the wars & rumours of wars, the droughts & pestilences….all of which are spoken of in the 4 gospels & again in revelation…Since becoming a Christian I have believed in the pretribulation rapture but that was before I read & reread the bible…There is no place in the bible where it talks about Christians being whisked up before they have to experience tribulation. Rather in all 4 gospels when Christ is asked about the end of the age & signs of the nearness of His coming, He speaks about earthquakes in various places & the wars & rumours of wars, the droughts & pestilences…. & some Christians even being given over to death for their faith…. Tribulation which I believe Christians will have to endure. Then He says he that perseveres to the end will earn eternal life. With that said, I also in my search found a website called http://www.tribwatch.com which I believe you seachers for the Truth will find very interesting & informative. Thanks for the opportunity to comment. Call on the name of the Lord & be saved!
britishbeliever, I just reread your note of May 29. We’ve been blessed!

What we can all remember is that those who respond positively, require our love. Those who respond in the negative are not listening anyway. Either they will listen, eventually, or they’ll be dead, awaiting resurrection. Tears are not required. Humility toward God is.
Funny, almost immediate results of acceptance are some of the fruits of the Spirit – peace, patience, faithfulness …
I admire your patience….. but focus on the Lord Almighty…. Ignore the rumor mongerers….. They are just distractions brought by the devil to sway you away from the true work….They are not called by the Father…. Do not waste your time…. This is not the time for evangelization….. We are in the Last Hour…. Just warn the world as you watch and pray…..
