This is a head-scratcher

Postby Pastor Gary » February 23rd, 2012, 12:48 am

Unless I am missing something, it is rare to see those two logos sharing space on the same ad.

Since I don't know who the other is, I can't help you. :D

The other

Dont you see the letters IDP - which I thought meant Iglesia de Dios de la Profecia, or COGOP - but the letters use a TCOG flag?

I would say who ever composed the ad did not notice the difference.

This is a result of allowing the COGOP flag (essentially a logo) to be plagarized (stolen).

My guess is that they are accustomed to using both flags, both symbols, and getting funds from both organizations as I personally saw amongst TGOG "missions" and other TCOG splinter groups "missions".

When you buy groups they generally go to the highest bidder.
You cannot effectively love and minister to others when you are obsessed with protecting
and preserving yourself.

I really do not think that a COGOP mission would intentionally try to identify themself with 2 different organizations in the same advertisement in order to get money from both groups. That would be self-defeating to such a purpose in that neither headquarters would support them.

Gilvanildo Oliviera is the Regional Youth Secretary for the COGOP in Brasil. His name is at the bottom of the ad.http://www.igrejadedeusdaprofecia.com.br/galeriaFotosVer.asp?id=92

I do not think it was intentional but quite possibly a mishap due to using either logo for different purposes.
