Yes He lead a pseudo-christian cult for many years. He had a nephew Garner T. Armstrong who did the same. After Herbert W. died several years ago his cult began to re-examine his teachings and they have repented and are now considered a sect of Christianity. They have actually turned around. Never before in history has that ever happened.

My parents used to listen to Garner Ted Armstrong when I was very young. He had a radio program where he cited bible passages proving the world was going to end in the very near future. (no more than 20 years)
That was about fifty years ago. I'm still waiting.

Wow, that's a blast from the past! I remember watching it when I attended the Worldwide Church of God. He died years ago and his son took over...dunno who runs the church now. They have a website that I've been to a couple times just to see what they're up to lately. They seem to have abandoned keeping the Jewish holy days. Too bad, the Feast of Tabernacles was fun!
