Dream Diary relating to the WCG (Part 8)
< Part 7 | Part 9 >
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.
WCG Intransigence
13th November 2009. M. My letter from 18 years ago.
I had sent a letter 18 years ago. This dream portrayed its journey by personifying it. It was as if everything that happened to it, happened to a person. It was awful!
The person was ignored, reviled, squashed, crushed, frozen out, treated malevolently, falsely accused, bunched in with others, not sorted properly so it was not sent where it was supposed to go, etc. It was not processed fittingly. Finally, after all this abuse, it came back after 18 years!
Comment: 18 years ago – autumn 1991 – was when I started writing meaningful Christian literature. God was opening my mind to what was wrong in the Church. First was the issue of church governance – authority in the Church. Out of what He showed me, the publication God’s Church – Whose Authority? grew. But the first article to be published was on humility: The Missing Dimension In Christian Living. Then came others such as Apostasy In God’s Church!, The Controversy Concerning Law and Grace, and The Mystery of The Invisible.
These publications straightened out falsity in Church teachings and began to lay a proper foundation for doctrine so that God’s people could get sorted spiritually.
We sent these publications to members of the WCG whose leaders had thrown us out and vilified our character. But the information was not processed properly. They treated it, and me, the way the dream showed. For 18 years, they have done nothing with it as they should. Instead of humbly heeding and learning from what we sent them all at our sacrificial expense, they vilified us and abused us dreadfully. People returned the envelopes with epithets and abusive comments scrawled on them, like “SPIRITUAL PORNOGRAPHY!”, or simply with the brainwashed riposte “Unsolicited: Return To Sender.” The mindlessness of it all was brain-numbing! They were all under the psychological control of their church mentors – blind leaders, who led blind followers – as Jesus prophesied – into the ditch!
Here we are 18 years later, and what we wrote and sent to them for their benefit is here, if they will now listen.
They were told lies about us. They were told we were spiritual viruses (in a ‘sermon’ by Stuart Powell). They were told we were spiritual vermin. They were told that our literature was “hate-filled, revenge-filled”, etc (by Andrew Silcox). They were told we were enemies of truth. They were told to return all that we sent, or ditch it! Their minds were polarised against us by their leaders. Very subtle mind control was the WCG leaders’ modus operandi. They were artisans at manipulation.
After each mail shot, to try and alert WCG members to their mental subjugation, we got intimidating phone calls, sometimes anonymous, sometimes abusive and hostile from unidentified vile mouths, often at unearthly hours. Their threats and intimidation intensified – all unknown to the church members, who were kept in ignorance of this battle being waged for their minds. But it was the ‘ministers’ of this cult that used such underhand tactics, while they posed and pontificated at pulpits as if they were men of God!
All that was 18 years ago. The letter in the dream symbolises what I wrote to them and sent at our expense. I wrote and sent what I did in love. God’s love moved me. But those evil men misinterpreted my actions and writings – which God has since confirmed through what He said to others, were GOOD. They classified them as evil. Just like the Pharisees classified Jesus’ confrontations as evil when they were good, so did WCG ministers who lacked spiritual discernment and right judgement.
If MM’s work and writings had not been of God, this work would have fizzled out long ago! They said it was not of God! But time has proved them wrong. They now have 18 years of testimony staring them in the face – publications written single-handedly with the inspiration and guidance of the Holy Spirit. If I was not moved by God, I could not have achieved what has been achieved.
God spoke to Isaya Owak in Kenya in about 1999 and said to him, “Tell Malcolm that the publications he is writing are not his, they are Mine.” That was for Isaya’s benefit as much as for anyone else’s. I knew I couldn’t write such stuff on my own. I’m just an average person, of average intellect, and of average writing ability. God supplied the inspiration!
Another was told by God: This is the man I have chosen to restore all things to the Church. (Other revelations which God has given to various people formerly in touch with us are included in 1. What God Said About MM and, 2. Revelations From God About MM, and 3. More Than A Prophet.)
Luke 13 relates about a woman who was bent double for 18 years because of demonic oppression. When Jesus offered deliverance, she accepted it. She was healed! The WCG has been bent double by demonic teachings, resisting deliverance all this time. Will they accept deliverance after these 18 years? I always hoped that they would. But the choice is theirs.
Stay Humble; Heed Correction
13th January 2010. M. Listening to correction.
A WCG man came to me and told me that I wasn’t humble. I didn’t answer back. I just listened to what he said and heeded it. I was really concerned if I was NOT humble!
Meaning: When you are given correction, heed it! Even if, as in the dream, it is given by someone who himself is not humble. King David was once badmouthed by a lout who disrespected his office. His army commander wanted to take the man’s head off, but David restrained him and said that perhaps God had something to say to him even though such a scoundrel (2 Sam 16:5-13).
In January 1993, a man prophesied to us as a group and said, amongst other things: keep your heart humble... and you shall know that I am He who heals you, and you shall know that I am He that loves you, and you shall know that I am He that saves you...
God saves, heals, delivers, guides and helps those who are humble. God’s face is against the proud. Ironically, in the dream the man who gave me the correction was proud. He loved his position in the WCG. He was proud of it. He was an obsequious bootlicker, and oh so blind to what was wrong with that church and its unspiritual leadership. He would have done well to listen to his own correction.
WCG Mentality Very Cloistered
24th January 2010. M. Ex-WCG man comes.
The symbolism of this dream portrayed me in Market Square, Aylesbury (a public place in our local town). There had been a public proclamation which had caused a man to get in touch with me who was formerly in the WCG. I was talking to him there and answered all his questions. As a result he wanted to come and fellowship with us. Not only that, but I also extended more hospitality to him by offering him to stay overnight.
He had a question which showed his ritualistic bias. He had felt it was wrong to pay money for anything on the Sabbath. But I pointed out that if he used a bus or train on the Sabbath and didn’t pay, he was stealing, which was breaking the seventh commandment. He needed his wrong thinking straightening out a bit.
Meaning: This is a parody of the legacy of WCG teaching which was incomplete and unbalanced. The dream portrays a situation in the near future when, after publicity, we will be able to help WCG folks and others to move ahead spiritually with more understanding which is all provided in MM literature.
Alone In My Task For God
11th October 2010. M. Alone in the loft.
In this dream a woman and her daughter were standing talking to Helena. I was occupied with my work, and my workplace was in the attic of what seemed to be a barn. With the lady looking on, I climbed up the ladder and crawled through the narrow opening into my workspace. It was my domain alone. No one else worked there. If anyone was overweight or big, they would not have been able to get through the opening into my loft. Only a small person could get through it.
Meaning: All the details are meaningful to do with biblical ideals of humility, revelation in the presence of God, the uniqueness of my task, which is the ‘Elijah’ task, etc. The woman would represent the older or more established part of the Church Universal, and her daughter symbolises more recent elements of the Church.
Return To The WCG
16th October 2010. M. Going back to the WCG.
I was going back to the old house where we used to live.
Meaning: This will happen through the upcoming publicity. We will make inroads into ‘our’ former church which rejected us. Hopefully many will finally be receptive to more truth!
Demons From Disobedience
28th October 2010. M. 1) Someone asks about P F.
Someone asked me about X who was with us many years ago. I replied that he has 6 demons and so doesn’t have unity with us. The man was very surprised and wondered why. I said that “X has refused to submit to God and keep the Sabbath holy and because of that he carries demons on board. (Rebellion is as witchcraft. It is just as evil.) X has been in rebellion against obedience to that command for about 18 years.”
Told To Buy A White Suit
2) D S told to buy a white suit.
God told DS (a WCG minister) to go and buy himself a white suit, and also to get suitable clothing for a couple of other people. He went to buy the white suit. It cost him an astronomical sum – £1500. It was very ornate and had decorative ‘frilly’ features.
Meaning: White depicts righteousness. God commands this man to accept teaching that he doesn’t presently have.
Preparing To Finish God’s House
3) The building being completed.
I was tidying up a floor area, picking up some rubbish. A ceiling must have been freshly done with artex because there was a little bit left in a torn bag which had spilled out on the floor. The floor was still rough and needed screeding to finish the job. It seemed I was preparing it for that.
Meaning: An allegory of preparing to finish God’s house – His people – by providing them with teaching.
The WCG Will Covet What We Have
9th November 2010. M. The WCG wants me.
Someone at the WCG wanted to get me in with them. He wanted to use me because he could see value in my writings and the scope of our influence [what is coming in the miracle phase of ‘our’ work]. I remonstrated with him. He was a good friend of the man who threw me out of the WCG 20 years ago on false charges, which he has never retracted or apologised for (he won’t, because he’s a false minister, a tool of Satan). I vehemently objected to the invitation to join them, because it was so ludicrous!
Meaning: As a cult, the WCG takes its lead from the man appointed at the top, just like the Catholic Church. It doesn’t follow the lead of the Spirit. Hence I have nothing in common with them. I take my orders from Above, not from men. They do the converse.
What they do is to be seen of men, like the Pharisees of old. They seek the approbation of men, and popularity and acclaim. When they see the miracles God performs in conjunction with MM’s work, and the public platform it brings, they will want that. Hence their hypocritical overture to me represented in the dream.
Painful Past In The WCG
6th December 2010. M. 4) People hurt by the WCG.
Talking to a couple who had a brochure with which they seemed to be evangelising. I looked for a way to introduce the subject of the WCG. I felt that they had been members at one time and that they didn’t want to be reminded of that past. Finally I found a lead-in and used it. Their response showed that they found such memories painful. I explained to them that the WCG was one of the worst ‘churches’ due to its hierarchic domination and evil control, equal to JWs. With what I said, they were helped over their pain.
Thin WCG Woman Returns
22nd June 2011. M. Thin woman.
A young blonde woman was standing before me. It was as if she was my wife. She was thin and undernourished. Although I hadn’t seen her for quite a long while, I knew that she was my wife (not in real life, but in the symbolism). She seemed to be returning to stay.
Meaning: This probably portrays the return of those whom we formerly knew and considered our friends in the WCG, but who cut us off when false ministers took control.
Being Interviewed For TV
1st July 2011. H. 1) Being interviewed.
There was a large field. At one end we had a large table and several of us were being interviewed. At the far end there was a TV crew.
Meaning: Miracles will bring publicity, and spread the message we bring. The field is the world.
Cleaning God’s House
2) Our large cooker. As we were cleaning the house, we found a large cooker, twice as wide as usual.
Meaning: We have to prepare God’s truth in an old-fashioned way, through basic printing and distribution of literature to very many people. Feeding the people is a main purpose of our ministry. This involves a lot of work in food preparation, but it brings spiritual renewal in people’s lives.
Unhelpful WCG
9th Sept 2011. M. Unhelpful man.
I was in a public place which was also a classroom. I had a file or folder with me. It contained my car insurance and other documents. I needed to get some road tax.
In this place I got talking with a young white man who was probably in his thirties. He was talking quite a lot and one of the things he mentioned in passing was that he was married to a 64-year-old black woman, which I found rather surprising.
Later, back home, I tried to call this man on the phone. First I wondered whether he might have called me, so I dialled 1471 to see if he had. Instead of getting the number, I had intercepted a conversation of two people. So I tried again. I think it was on the third attempt that I was able to contact him on the phone.
I couldn’t remember his name – I don’t think I even knew it, to begin with. My memory was so bad that I asked him if he was ‘Malcolm’. Then I realised that I was Malcolm: “I’m sorry, my memory is so bad, I can’t remember your name.” But he didn’t volunteer his name. I said, “It’s ‘Sam’, isn’t it?” He didn’t reply. He just maintained a long silence.
I was wanting to befriend this man, but he was so unhelpful and uncooperative. I had regarded him as my friend when I first talked with him in the classroom. But now he was anything but friendly!
I asked him if he could do me a favour, but I couldn’t remember what it was. He then got shirty and accused me of wanting to GET from him. I said, “No I’m not like that. My commission from Above is to help people get restored and to do them good.” I was wracking my brain to try and recall what it was that I was meant to ask him to do. So I asked if he could look after something for me for an hour one evening? He didn’t like any suggestion of the sort. He didn’t want to help.
I also asked him if he knew where I had left my documents folder, because I needed to get some road tax to keep my car on the road. He was equally unhelpful.
Meaning: It was given to Helena that this portrays the nature of the WCG ministry represented by the young man. The document folder was portrayed in a very early dream, where I had to leave it behind on the railway station as I got on the train in the guard’s van. It contained my unfinished correspondence with the WCG leadership, who ignored all I wrote about reform. It symbolised how God was taking us further on and leaving our contact with them behind. They had rejected Him because they had rejected what He inspired me to write to them about their need of repentance and reform.
Now, however, we are coming to a new stage in our work and they will ‘meet’ us again. But their inner motives of selfish unhelpfulness and unwillingness to cooperate are revealed. They don’t want to help us ‘stay on the road’ of taking the truth to others, symbolised by getting road tax.
Not knowing his name represents how they are an unknown entity. A name symbolises character, but you don’t really know their inner character because they are charlatans. They talk a lot, but it’s empty.
The black woman. Black symbolises evil. 64 = 8 x 8. Eight is the number depicting spiritual things such as faith, love and godly characteristics that bring fulfilment. They masquerade that they are this way, but their character is not that at all! They are evil, and their response betrays their inner motives.
Being forgetful, as I was in the dream, is what happens in old age as the body gets worn out and depleted of nutrients. It symbolises all the effort we have exerted to try and deliver these (mostly hardhearted) folks.

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.
