The statement that "A church that is not growing, is dying" is a widely recognized fact, among Christains. Growth in a church is usually seen when new people join, showing that the church is actively reaching out. 'Evangelism' is a key part of this, which means sharing the Christian message to invite new people to join, both locally and abroad. The Bible passage Acts 2:42-47 shows that churches grow when they focus on sharing their faith and teaching others. Simply put, a church's love for God and its community helps it spread the Gospel both at home and around the world. Despite these widely accepted truths, Golden Dawn Tabernacle appears to overlook them, yet still considers itself an evangelistic church. This article will examine how GDT approaches missionary and evangelism work and its influence on the growth of the church.

In this article, we examine the deep-rooted culture of gossip, often referred to as "whisper net", within the Golden Dawn Tabernacle community. While it's not uncommon for any church/ club to have its share of gossip, given society's inherent attraction to drama, it appears that within Golden Dawn Tabernacle, simple gossip quickly escalates to slander. Such exchanges often become more malicious, nasty and deliberate. We'll explore how this culture is nurtured and manipulated by Pastor Isaac Noriega and the ministry, as well as the unfortunate impact it has on the congregation individuals.
In this article, we further delve into instances of misconduct at Golden Dawn Tabernacle, with a specific focus on child discipline. This subject often sparks intense debates due to the vast array of opinions surrounding it. However, there should be unanimous agreement that causing physical harm to children is indefensible, regardless of one's disciplinary beliefs. While some might immediately assert, "Such actions don't occur here, and no one in church leadership is mistreating children," it's concerning to note the environment within GDT that can, at times, indirectly condone such behavior.
In our recent article, we were surprised to see a record-breaking 100+ comments on our site. However, it was disheartening to note that a significant portion of these comments were unrelated to the article's content. As we've mentioned before, the nature of many comments was not only off-topic but also carried tones of disrespect and degradation. We were also deeply disturbed by certain allegations and behaviors exhibited by some commenters. Such hostile remarks and actions have no place on our platform. We kindly ask all commenters to maintain civility and respect, as our aim is to offer a constructive space for current and former GDT members to share their insights.
Over the past several decades, whispers have circulated suggesting Pastor Isaac Noriega might have fathered a child outside of wedlock, with some speculating this took place during his tenure as Tabernaculo Emanuel / Golden Dawn Tabernacle Pastor. It's essential to approach such claims with caution and avoid sharing them without substantial evidence.
