What is up with these names? 'British-Israel Church of God', 'Revelation's "Little Book"', 'Where are we now in Prophecy?' Wow. Where's the focus? Certainly one can tell from the name it's Jesus' redemptive work.
Then this little gem, 'Church of God - Internationally Affiliated Associates'. What a mouthful. Sounds like a wayward offspring of GTA's creating. First there was 'Church of God International'. That went south after certain indiscretions. Then there was 'Intercontinental Church of God', which may have sold naming rights so the WWF. I picture cage matches in place of Bible studies and ministers named "Onward Ultimate Warrior" and "Papashango 3:16". Now this. It looks ilke an expression of excess more than faith. I can see some very creative acronyms in that name.
In case anybody is wondering, Papa Shango appears to be a WWF wrestler, a rock band with a page on MySpace, a voodoo witch doctor in the Godfather film, at least 21 people on Facebook with that alias, and possibly a character from Haitian mythology. Take your pick!
Although I'm not sure if xHWA was being serious about the 3:16 part...
