“There are people leaving this message by droves. Say, well, that won't ever happen to me. You better make sure that the Holy Ghost is in your life or it will happen to you.”

— John Thornton, "Armed And Dangerous" — The Tabernacle of the Lord, May 12, 2024 [59:51] [Source]

Context

A sitting Message pastor acknowledging a mass exodus, framing it as a spiritual battle rather than engaging with why people are leaving.

“That spirit that said this didn't happen, that didn't happen, this won't happen, that's wrong, this is wrong. That spirit is deceiving people coming and going. People that I never thought would turn away from the message... have completely turned their back on it.”

Context

Thornton names the specific criticisms — "this didn't happen, that didn't happen" — while attributing them to a "deceiving spirit." He inadvertently confirms that the factual criticisms (failed prophecies, historical errors) are what is causing people to leave.
