Now to a more global scale. The 4th Watch is so irresponsible in their quest for money and power, that they put so many persons in danger. This is because their irresponsibility extends to putting the planet in danger as well. Remember, cults ruin the lives of its members, but can affect non-members as well, and in this case, the world. It is one thing to teach immorality and to engage in irresponsible practices, but many persons don't realize just how much damage cults like the 4th Watch can do to those who aren't even members. This is why persons who have no interest in religion need to get involved, to help protect the world form cults like the 4th Watch. Because if we sit back and do nothing, we risk losing everything.
One of the principle philosophies of the 4th Watch cult is that the world is "not important". The church's stance is that since this world is just a temporary place before we all enter Heaven or Hell, it is not worth taking care of. Their view is that if you show love to the world, you are not showing love to the lord your god. If you love the world, you are a lover of the creation and not the creator. They believe that if you begin to love the world, you will begin to worship it and they equate to taking care of your planet as worshipping the planet. Can you imagine teaching this philosophy to its most trusting members? Can you imagine the consequences of this? It is enough to make any decent person in this world's skin crawl. They use the following verse as a basis for this environmental view:

1 John 2:15-17
Do not love the world or anything in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For everything in the world-the cravings of sinful man, the lust of his eyes and the boasting of what he has and does-comes not from the Father but from the world. The world and its desires pass away, but the man who does the will of God lives forever.

The 4th Watch denies global warming. Despite the abundance of scientific evidence that tells us that the Earth is getting warmer and why, which includes being caused by human beings, as explained previously, they are taught to ignore scientific evidence. The cult does not care about the planet, or its members. The cult knows that if they choose to go along with what the science shows, then they would lose control over their members. By having its members worship God, praising their apostle, and focusing all of their love and attention on them, members are kept under control. If members were to start taking care of their planet, then that would take away from the leader and his cult.
Because they do not care about the state of our planet, which they consider to be a short temporary home, the 4th Watch irresponsibly teaches that it is not necessary to be careful with the use of our planet's precious resources. They teach that conserving resources is unnecessary, because God will always provide for them while we live our short lives on this temporary home. They believe that God will provide the world with whatever resources we need.
The danger and irresponsibility of the 4th Watch concerning our environment is undeniable. It is perhaps the most dangerous threat because it affects us all. If everyone felt the way that this cult does, our Earth would be doomed. Even if persons do not believe that the Earth is getting warmer or that it comes from man-made causes, any moral person understands that we need to take care of our planet, because at this time, it is our only home. We cannot put our lives or planet in danger because we believe that there is a god who we believe will make everything okay. And this is one of the biggest reasons why Christian cults like the 4th Watch need to be stopped.
Now we have gotten some emails from 4th Watchers who were angry with what we said regarding the 4th Watch cult's views on the environment. They insisted that this is not what they teach. One 4th Watcher who is obviously ignorant of its own doctrines insisted that whenever they talk about not loving the world, they just mean not to love the immoralities of the world; But this is not true. Pastors have been clear about this subject; that because the Earth is temporary, there is no need to worry about it, because some day we'll have an eternity in Heaven.
We found a video of a sermon given by the head pastor and sub-cult leader Jonathan Ferriol himself, where he confirms much of what we have informed you about in this article. So, you can read his own words and see that what we say is the truth, and that we are not merely making up information to make the cult look bad.
In the video, Jonathon Ferriol was giving a sermon about the end of the world, and that it was going to be happening soon. The subject was about the signs that we are receiving and what they mean to us. He stated what we've been saying all along; that the Earth is temporary, and to not worry about it because we're going to Heaven some day. He repeatedly says how the Earth isn't beautiful, and how it is dying. Now in the sermon he gives, he is not just referring to the Earth alone; He also implies about how our dreams and desires are not important either, but that is only part of the message. A big part is all about our planet. Even if he wasn't even referring to our planet at all, any message about not caring about our dreams and desires has a serious impact on the planet, despite what any 4th Watcher might say. Further more, any message about dreams and desires not being important is a horrible message by itself as well. There is no excuse for these kinds of horrible cultic messages.
Here is part of that sermon, coming straight from Jonathan Ferriol's mouth:

We must understand that this world is decomposing. This planet is decaying. There was a time that the issue of environment is not even an issue in the election, but right now, it's almost impossible to win the presidency or a seat in the congress or a seat in the mayoralty race without having a platform about the environment. There was a time when you could just build anywhere. Right now, you need to pass this stringent environmental codes and laws. The reason is because we are trying to preserve the Earth, because this Earth is being ruined by our flagrant consumption and use.

Now don't believe that he's talking about th 4th Watchers being concerned about the state of the planet. When he says "we are trying to preserve the Earth", he is only referring to how most persons in developed countries are trying to take care of it. They are not implying that the 4th Watch is actually trying to preserve the Earth. Hearing this at first might give you the incorrect impression, but then he goes on to say:

Now, if planet Earth is dying, more so the life in the world. Our morality is going down to the dogs. Our spirituality is becoming more flawed, and in many parts of the world, it is no longer there, it has become already void and absent. This world is dying, morally speaking, as well as physically speaking. That is why we need to understand certain things as we see these hardships. If our world is temporal; if our world is passing and fading away and disappearing, why invest in this world? That's the argument there.
If you see the world dying, why would you invest in a dying investment? Why would you invest your time and energy in a project that is gasping for its last breath? The book of Matthew chapter 6 verse 19; Jesus Christ our savior himself said do not store up for yourselves treasures on Earth, where thieves break in. Do not; Because eventually whatever you attempt to invest, whatever you seek to invest will eventually disappear, because this world and its system is dying. It is futile. It's vain. You cannot bet on the world, because it's a losing card. You're gonna' end up losing more than you can gain. This world is dying, so you should not invest in this world, rather invest in God's kingdom.
Now I have nothing against dreams for decent living. By all means, find a job, and be able to live a decent life; but do not let your earthly ambitions get in the way of your heavenly ambitions; Because in this world, everything will eventually pass away. So even if you lose your house here on earth, if you have a mansion on Heaven; that's good enough.

This is true cultic talking he have going on here. You know that you are dealing with messed up and evil persons when they tell you not to invest in the world, to not let your earthly ambitions get in the way of acheiving something supernatural like Heaven; a place that exists only in the realms of our imaginations. This planet that we are on now is our home. We should be "ambitious" about taking care of it.
But Mr. Cult Face disagrees. He concludes this point in his sermon quite nicely with the following:
|

|
|
|

And so in the book of 1st John chapter 2 verse 15-17, there the apostle John exhorts us not to love the world, or the things of the world, because this world, the Bible says, this world in its present form is passing away. It says there, the world and its desires pass away. To God be the glory. Do not invest. Do not love the world; Because the world is not beautiful, the world is not pretty, the world is not pleasent; it is a corpse. It's already a cadaver. The ideas of the world are dead. There's nothing you can gain from it. There's no use loving what is dead.

You cannot deny that the 4th Watch cares nothing for our planet. The world is dying? Don't love something that's dying? There is NO excuse for this. The PMCC 4th Watch is a dangerous cult, and this message given to us by its head pastor and sub-leader Jonathon Ferriol proves it. This is why it is so important that we are exposing the the teachings of this horrible cult. Please do not ignore this. We need to act. We need to keep our children away from these persons who would actually have the wicked nerve to tell them not to care about our only current home in the universe. Don't listen to them. Every one of us needs to do all that we can to protect the environment and to take care of the Earth. We cannot let superstition ruin our world and our lives; but that is what the 4th Watch church is intent on doing.
