Dream Diary relating to the WCG (Part 5)
< Part 4 | Part 6 >
When a prophet of the Lord is among you, I reveal Myself to him in visions, I speak to him in dreams (Numbers 12:6, NIV).
(H = Helena’s dream. M = Malcolm’s dream, etc.)
He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit is saying to the churches (Rev 2:7).
These are merely SOME of the revelations in dreams which concern the Worldwide Church of God (WCG).
Earlier dreams are contained in the book Dreams From God About The WCG.
The Church IS CORRUPT!
16th June 2006. M. 1) Denouncing A Corrupt Church!
There were a number of people near me. One man was black and, as I was walking away from him, I was saying things for his benefit. I said in the most emphatic and derogatory tones: “The Church is CORRUPT! The leaders are corrupt! It is riddled with corruption!!” As I said these forceful things – which I knew would offend the man (but I didn’t care about that, it was truth) – I didn’t look at him.
I was growling with fury as I said them. That is God’s great displeasure expressed towards those who harbour corruption in churches.
Later in the evening, God moved me to pick up and specifically read chapter 11 of God Speaks To The WCG. He made me want to be reminded of what I had written in that chapter: Finishing Off The WCG! There I noticed five places where the corruption of the WCG was exposed and emphasised! Now I knew what God was referring to!
Just in case I had missed an important mention of corrupt or corruption, or corrupted, etc. somewhere else in that book, I put it through a word search, only to find that there are 39 – 3 x 13 – occurrences of variants of that word in that volume!
The Way Others Regard MM Literature
2) Man sawing wood.
I was standing in a queue of people at a DIY store or builders’ merchants. I had a large trolley with much on it. Two other men used my trolley for their benefit. They rested their piece of timber on top of it and sawed one end at 30 degrees. He was careful to lift it up so he didn’t touch anything of mine with his saw.
Meaning: Y’day I sent an inquiry to an SDA person because of a recommendation from an SDA leader (not to me personally; it was printed for many to read).
The dream predicts their response. Our literature is not important to them and they will not want to touch it, except to use it as a base for what they want to do.
That is what occurred. They ignored me and did not make proper use of MM publications.
One piece of their wood depicts their one item they are concerned with. What they have is limited. Cutting the wood at an oblique angle symbolises their slanted approach. SDAs are prejudiced, and they look at everything, and respond to everything according to their own slant. They do not accept anything that does not fit their preconceptions.
N.B. Much more from God about SDAs is provided in Revelations From God For Seventh Day Adventists (£1).
Our Isolated Ministry
3) In my small camper van.
I was all alone in my small camper van [I don’t personally own one – it is symbolic] somewhere by the sea. No one else was around. There wasn’t a person in sight!
Meaning: Symbolises how isolated our ministry is. (Elijah felt this way – see 1 Kings 19:10).
Returning To Complete Two Tasks
19th June 2006. M. Going back to finish the 2 jobs.
In this dream, I suddenly had a thought about two building jobs I had previously been working on, and wondered whether I had finished them. I couldn’t remember, but I had the feeling that they weren’t completed and so I wrote to the clients to find out. I remembered that in one of the jobs there were many blocks of wood, all laid out in a row on the ground, ready to be installed in the building.
Meaning: God is going to take us back to those who formerly rejected us, and they will have a chance to install what we provided that they rejected, and to finish the task.
The job where many blocks were laid out in a row is most probably the (people of the) WCG, which had more input from us than any other group. [This is now beginning in 2013.]
Cutting The WCG Tree Down
10th August 2006. M.
7) Someone else cuts the tree down.
This revelation featured some land outside a house that was ours. I was in the house, upstairs, which had a sloping floor (it must have been old; some old houses have sloping floors on old oak beams). We had neighbours next door, who also had some land but there was no division between our land and theirs.
I looked out of the window and saw a man cutting down the dead tree which was on our land. I had been intending to cut the tree down, as was my right, and use the tree for firewood. At the point where the dream ended, I was about to go out to talk to him about it.
Meaning: The dream may be to do with the WCG, the ‘old dead tree’. (It was a very big tree, not like the one that graces the cover of God Speaks To The WCG.) Now, after having ‘primed’ some WCG ministers, they may be the ones to finally cut the old tree down.
24th October 2006. M. 3) Man cuts a tree down.
A man was climbing a tree to cut it down. (Amazing! You don’t cut a tree down while you are up it! But he did.) As I saw him do this, I was getting excited. It was nearly dead and needed felling. It was next to a building [the house of God in which God is working]. He cut it down, and it was near the end of the day; it was almost dark.
Meaning: The tree is the WCG church organisation which is nearly dead. The late hour of the day depicts where we are in this Age shortly before the Tribulation. The man depicts a person (might be male or female) who has leadership ability and who uses it courageously to bring down the church that needs felling. Hallelujah! He is up the tree, meaning he is within that church organisation.
It can also apply to all other dead church organisations.
The Carnal WCG
18th November 2006. M. WCG not interested.
I was waiting to talk to a man whom I once knew in the WCG. I didn’t want to be rude and interrupt what he was doing, so I waited near him while he looked at his papers. But instead of looking up and paying some attention to me, he just ignored me and carried on.
I wanted to urge him to read either God Speaks To The WCG or God’s Church – Whose Authority? As I awaited my opportunity, in continual hope, two young women came in and got his immediate attention. But he didn’t spare a moment for me in the same way.
So I departed into the wide area beyond him. There was no one there except one person, a large fat young man [this depicts an arrogant and self-centred church leader]. He had a big library book with him to read. He wasn’t interested in learning from MM lit. But he was lonely and sought some company, and so I offered him my company if he wanted it. I told him that I would be over by the patio doors soon, if he waited a short while. But he seemed disinclined to move there.
Meaning: The WCG is not interested in moving on with truth. The dream depicts their approach towards us (nil!).
The fat young man represents self-centred people who ‘befriend’ us for selfish reasons.
The patio doors represent the area where full light can penetrate.
Overall, the dream allegorises how people are mostly engrossed in what they want to do, and how the revelations from God in MM literature have no appeal to them.
Will You Pay The High Price?
9th April 2007. M. Can’t afford the price.
This dream used the high price of houses in Britain, to draw attention to the fact that no one wants to buy our house [an allegory of the truths which MM promotes]. But the dream also showed that, equally, our former home was also unoccupied [symbolising the demise of the WCG].
Comment: There is a high personal price required of you to accept all God’s truth!
WCG Ministers Still Immature
25th April 2007. M. Wanting to erect a covering.
There were some children’s desks out in the open. They could get wet in the rain, so I wanted to erect a roof over them. A couple of sheets of perspex would do fine.
Meaning: Yesterday I got two videos to send to two WCG ministers. The videos contained prophetic messages that they needed to hear, because they are asleep and do not recognise us as prophets. (I didn’t know what the dream meant at first. Then Helena pointed out that it depicted me sending those videos, which could help those ministers.)
The children’s desks portray how they are still in an immature spiritual state, like children at school.
Worn Out!
1st June 2007. M. Tired.
In this dream I was wielding a sledge hammer to smash two grey concrete idols. They were side by side, and I was smashing their heads. But I had very little strength and it took everything out of me to do this. I was worn out and only just managed to smash their heads in. I wanted to do so much more, to smash the whole images, but I hardly had the energy to lift the sledge hammer.
Meaning: Concrete is a man-made substance; hard and impenetrable. Grey can connote a mixture of good (white) and evil (black). The two images can represent church traditions that we are smashing through MM publications:
1) Church hierarchy, which is smashed by God’s Church – Whose Authority? And 2) Syncretism, which is smashed by Sunday Versus Sabbath: The Final World Crisis.
The enormity of the task is portrayed by my ability only to smash the heads and not the whole images.
Having barely the strength to lift the sledge hammer is a depiction of Jesus’ words to Philadelphia:
...you have a little strength, have kept My word, and have not denied My name (Rev 3:8).
God is the One who enables, gives spiritual strength and ability to do the task which He has assigned. When He portrayed me flying like superman in a dream in early 1998, it was at the time He enabled me to write a series of 50 articles to smash the idolatry and hubris of the WCG. But now I am worn out, perhaps symbolising that this work is shortly going to come to an end. I have nearly finished my task, and can move on.
Human Solutions Are No Good
9th June 2007. M. Two men try to organise things.
In this dream two men in dark suits came to our place. They wanted me to build an above ground pond with brick retaining wall. The design was rectangular with predictable features as are man-made structures.
I didn’t agree to their proposal, but carried on with what I was doing. When they visited again, I was digging the ground (where they had proposed the pond or lake) with a fork, breaking up the hard clods of earth. There was a large cardboard box (packaging) that I was bashing to break up and bury at the same time. [Burying the ‘packaging’ of old church teachings.]
There was more to the dream, but that was not given me to recall. At the end of it all, the two men realised that there was no need for any brick wall [because it’s man-made].
Meaning: On 4th June I had written to two WCG ministers, castigating them for their slowness to respond to God’s call. The dream predicts their response. They will try to do something, which will be humanly contrived.
Men – in this case church leaders – try to contain the Spirit and Truth which flows from God. But this amounts to human control. Whatever man builds is ugly and far from ideal.
In the dream I had no intention of complying with their desires. I didn’t want to get involved in building a pond or lake, and certainly not one that is lifted up, elevated. God doesn’t give what He gives for men to make an edifice out of it.
My job is to break up the hard ground so that people can assimilate God’s Word and benefit from the truths of God.
Colin Urquhart And The WCG
15th June 2007. M.
b) In another scene, I was on my bike, passing a house on my right. On the other side of the road, on the left, a white van was parked. Sign-writing on the rear doors and on the side (but only near the back – three quarters of the side was just blank) said “Faith...” something. It was something like Faith Builders. It was “Faith...” with another word, but not “builders”. It was something I knew in the Spirit, but when I awoke it made no sense in the physical.
As I rode past this house on my bike, I thought to myself, “Oh, Colin Urquhart is at work in that place.”
Meaning: The building on the right is the old WCG. In 1992 or 1993 we bought 50 copies of three of Colin Urquhart’s books and sent them to all the WCG offices around the world:
- When the Spirit Comes
- In Christ Jesus
- Faith For The Future
- As well as titles by two other authors about the prophetic
It completely undermined their cultic dogma of being the only ones guided by the Spirit (not that they were, but that was what they thought).
A year or two later, the WCG totally about-faced, fully accepting (at least in word, if not in deed) Sunday-keeping Christians, and throwing out the basis for Sabbath-keeping and other teachings that did not square with ‘orthodoxy’.
The problem with what that white van brought however, is that it had much missing. Faith was taught, but not much else. Hence the mostly blank side. And the van was parked on the left side of the road, depicting its liberal position in God’s estimation. But it was static, because faith without works is dead. The WCG was on the right, in legalism and empty ritual. What both needed, was a proper blend of faith and biblical works, for the Spirit to take you right down the middle of the road. Better to be on a bike in the middle of the road to Life, if your means is very limited, than to have a very impressive white van that’s parked up, or a house that’s old and much more incapable of moving on!
WCG Emptiness
28th August 2007. M. At the WCG.
I was shown the emptiness of the WCG in symbolic imagery. I was there at a meeting. Nothing much was happening, but there were quite a number of people there.
After a while a man, whom I guess was a minister, felt that he should do ‘his duty’ and start to preach. So he began to read something to the people present, but after a few words his speech became a stutter [one manifestation of demonic interference]. I felt some compassion for him, but the people moved away and weren’t interested in what he was saying. It had no real worth, and they knew it. They moved away to the opposite side of the room and began to queue as if for the cinema or theatre. [Worldly entertainments.]
Finally, when I left, I felt completely empty, drained, and unfulfilled. It was not a spiritually edifying experience!
What You Owe Me
29th August 2007. M. People who owe me.
Many people were owing me in this dream. I had given them MM literature and they had not responded properly. The situation was likened to that of Lazarus and the rich man in Luke 16. (Lazarus was so poor, and the rich man did not care about him. When Lazarus died, he was comforted in the presence of Abraham in heaven, but the rich man lost everything and his spirit suffered torment.)
Every time someone owed me and didn’t ‘pay’, liquid was poured into a barrel (a 45 gallon drum). At the end of the day [this day of salvation], the barrel was full up. It was full of filthy, dirty, dark grey ‘water’! Yuck!
Meaning: Besides having a literal meaning – many people have taken MM literature and used it selfishly, and have not ‘paid’ us. (The least they owe us is to obey the Truth it contains, and to reimburse us for giving it to them. But instead of doing something positive, they have drained us.) However, the dream also has a symbolic meaning. They owe God.
Jesus bought us by His death. His blood paid for all our sins. Therefore we owe God our lives – everything! So, when people hold back and are not willing to give everything to God (usually, He doesn’t require us to give up everything, but He looks to see our willingness), that withholding is from an evil motive within, which leads to lack of good works, and gives rise to evil works, represented by the horrible foul liquid.
They are treasuring up or storing up for themselves wrath in the day of wrath (Rom 2:5). They are investing in ‘negative equity’.
Comment: There is another important point to consider. A lot of Christians have been duped by the false concept that acceptance of Christ absolves them of the duty of obeying some commands which God gave Moses. For example, they think the Sabbath commandment (Ex 20:8) is superseded by a theoretical ‘rest’ in Christ, according to a misapplication of Hebrews 4. Likewise, the Festivals which God gave His people through Moses (Lev 23).
Yet all these Christians owe God EVERYTHING! They have been bought with Jesus’ blood, and their duty is to avoid EVERY sin, and to obey EVERY command of God (Matt 4:4). But many of them refuse to do so. Their works are also likened to the foul liquid in the barrel.

God speaks to His prophets
today just as He spoke to His prophets of old.
One very expressive avenue of communication
is via dreams and visions (Num 12:6).
The leadership of the Worldwide Church of God is under God's
condemnation for:
1) defying Him in their spiritual promiscuity,
2) maintaining their spiritual control over the minds of their subjects, and
3) repudiating the words of the prophets He sends to correct and redirect them.
