The Worldwide Church of God was founded by Herbert Armstrong. It is considered a cult for its claims and other doctrinal positions.
After the death of its founder, a huge chunk of the people within the church confessed their errors and joined the Evangelical mainstream.
But a group decided to remain true to the doctrines held by Herbert Armstrong. Believing themself to be the true Israel, they conduct worship service on Sabbath, and put a lot of emphasis on prophecies. It is unfortunate that one of their own turned on them by killing certain members while worshipping inside a building.
When people are unstable and facing pressures, Satan uses them to strike. I guess this is one of those -- I understand the guy was on the verge of losing his job. In times like these, people ask, "where was God, and why didn't He prevent this?"
