I don't have any new solid information about Mr. Fritts. There are more questions than answers at this point. But I hsve a few thoughts I will share.
It is apparent that he does not want to raise up a new Church of God fellowship. That actually says something good about his character, that he is humbled by the responsibility of leading a new group and that he does not want to create more division than already exists in the whole Church of God. I can empathize with him on that.
But God has ways of moving us in directions we do not want to go.
When Mr. Fritts separated from Church of God Assembly (regardless of whether he was fired or quit), he may have thought he could join an existing group. He has, after all, a lot to offer in terms of ability and experience.
Yet, his very experience and ability may make other groups hesitant to hire him. There may be a fear he will leave after a while taking brethren with him.
How often do any of us set out to do something, assuming things will be a certain way, and finding they are not, whether or not we know the reason?
And if God is involved, He can easily block Mr. Fritts from being hired by any existing Church of God fellowship, if that is His will. He may want Mr. Fritts to raise up a new group even if that is not Mr. Fritts's first choice.
I am curious about what Mr. Fritts has been doing the last several Sabbaths. Does he attend someplace? Does he tune in to live services someplace on the Internet (there are many available)? Does he preach a sermon to a small group of his family and friends and a few Church of God members he knows, but without broadcasting services on the Internet? Or does he broadcast to a few people but does not otherwise make himself known to everyone at this time?
I cannot imagine him only praying, reading the Bible, and sleeping on the Sabbath.
I would love to hear or read him explain in his own words what he believes the true gospel is. If I am wrong in my views of what the true gospel is, maybe I could learn from him and be corrected.
He probably needs more time for God to work things out for him. But the Feast is approaching, and there may be a lot of members whose plans are up in the air because of this. And Oh, what a wide spectrum of views various ministers and members or former members of Church of God Assembly may have!
Is it safe to say this whole situation can be complicated?
On the world scene, the whole world, allies and enemies alike, is seeing the divisions and the weakness of the United States. They also see our reluctance to be fully committed to defending their interests and their safety. At the same time there are signs of weakness in the leadership of Russia and China. Russia may have a new leader soon, and the same is possible for China.
Everything is in flux. The world is fast-changing. AI is growing.
Europe, especially Germany, feels the need to become stronger militarily, independent of the United States. They are rearming. Things may take time, maybe several years, to work out. But things are definitely moving in the direction that Bible prophecy predicts.
