79.0. "Worldwide Church of God joins Christianity" by PHXS02::HEISER (Maranatha!) Wed May 21 1997 21:07

    Check out this site to see the amazing story of how the Worldwide
    Church of God cult (i.e., Armstrongism) has converted to Christianity
    en masse!  What a testimony to God and His Word!

    More details on the remarkable change.  It appears Hank Hanegraaff, the
    "Bible Answer Man" had quite a role in this.

    works at times.

      I'm just curious...
    
      what are the beliefs this denomination had that caused evangelicalism
      to consider them nonchristian and what new beliefs did they embrace
      that caused evangelicalism to consider them Christian?

    I believe the WWCOG was a works-based religion who discovered the grace
    of God in Christ.
