Notability not asserted, and article treats three separate organizations, as well as commenting on doctrines they may or may not share. SarekOfVulcan (talk) 13:48, 21 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I am aware that it was founded by Garner Ted Armstrong, Herbert W. Armstrong's son, as was pointed out in the previous AfD, but that's not actually an assertion of notability. --SarekOfVulcan (talk) 13:54, 21 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Strong Keep. Religious denominations/organizations are entirely encyclopedia worthy. In addition, scholarly and even media interest in this and similar groups is quite strong. Tchicken7 (talk) 03:45, 22 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Keep This church was famous before the dawn of the internet age. Nominator has not stated a reason for deletion. There is plenty of material available on the internet now for the nominator to improve the article, including a quote that this is one of two "notable" spin-offs from the WCG. The church also is a publisher, of a news magazine, and on radio and TV. I agree with Tchicken7. Unscintillating (talk) 10:15, 22 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
