Bitter Bob: Is He Now Pretending to Be Sinless Bob?


Bitter Bob writes today that he has never been "convicted" of sin.  I guess we need to start calling him Sinless Bitter Bob now.

Sinless Bitter Bob preaches no biblical heresies.  He has made and will NEVER make any false prophecies like all the other impotent weaklings in the various COG's do:

The fruits are there.  And those fruits are there WITHOUT THE DOCTRINAL HERESIES AND FALSE PROPHETIC PRONOUNCEMENTS OF OTHER COG GROUPS.

If I had been willing to compromise doctrinally while in LCG, I could have accepted a salary I was offered by Dr. Meredith on at least two occasions (it was not specifically predicated upon me being willing to compromise, it is just that I felt that unacceptable compromise would have been required if I was an employee of LCG).  I did neither.
In terms of character issues, notice something that Jesus taught:
45 But because I tell the truth, you do not believe Me.  46 Which of you convicts Me of sin? And if I tell the truth, why do you not believe Me?  47 He who is of God hears God’s words; therefore you do not hear, because you are not of God.  (John 8:45-47)

Yet again, Sinless Bitter Bob lashes out at Rod Meredith tying to prove he has not sinned any major sin.  Its all Rods fault that Bitter Bob had to start another splinter personality cult.
No one ever “convicted me” of sin in that type of context.  Instead, like David was falsely accused of pride by an envious brother (1 Samuel 17:28), I, too, was on 12/28/14 in a letter from Dr. Meredith, and like David, I denied it (cf. 1 Samuel 17:29; Roderick C. Meredith’s Accusatory Letter to Bob Thiel).  It should be noted that in violation of Matthew 18:15-17, Dr. Meredith made that accusation publicly despite the fact that neither Dr. Meredith nor my local minister had EVER raised that subject with me or made that accusation.  Which of us had the proper fruits?  The one who tried to comply with Matthew 18:15-18 or the one who did not feel he was subject to those scriptures?

    OH! YOU say the proper fruits are there? If YOU say so. I guess THAT makes it all better then. (Which fruits? Where? All I see is a bunch of proper nuts!)

    I take back all those horrible things I've been writing about you for years and years.

  6. Pee uterus! Smell the awful stench of self-righteousness?? Hey Bob, what about Luke 18:11, Numbers 16:1-3, and Deut. 18:22? Any of those ring a bell?

    (And that's without going for some of the Bible's "deep cuts").

  7. Ha, I read the "accusatory letter" link.

    Bob spends so much of his commentary trying to get away from what must be a very common complaint in his life. Geez Bob. All that squirming just makes you sound even more vain. You can cry about how it was delivered to you improperly till the sun no longer sets, but you're still swimming so blatantly in your own ego that you end up sounding like a jilted lover.

  8. And yes, Bob, I came to that conclusion well before you publicized all this, from simply reading bits of your website at times. You are an egomaniac with a serious vanity issue. And a crybaby to boot.
    (And I hate football, so don't try to smear me like you did Jim Meredith)

  9. Folks, right now as we speak, he's probably saying to himself, "Uh, it's been four hours, and I haven't touched it, and I haven't called my doctor! OOOhhhhh, I'm just so righteous!!!"

  10. you end up sounding like a jilted lover.

    Many have noted the Improperly Effeminate countenance of Bitter Bob.

    Many have noted the Improperly Familiar manner with which Bitter Bob presented his relationship to Rod Meredith over the years.

    Characterizing Bitter Bob's upset as like that of a jilted lover may be more spot-on than you realize. Not that it was (necessarily) mutual, but clearly Bitter Bob at the very least had certain Improperly Placed Emotions.

  11. Romans 1:27

    International Standard Version

    In the same way, their males also abandoned their natural sexual function toward females and burned with lust toward one another. Males committed indecent acts with males, and received within themselves the appropriate penalty for their perversion.

  12. Bob's imploding before our very eyes. All he's doing with this nonsense is hastening his own demise. What a self-important, self-indulgent hack.

  13. heh, I wasnt trying to imply Bob is gay or effeminate, but if others have made similar commentary, maybe Bob needs to quit posturing and seriously consider his behavior. Any adult can tell you theres a difference between how you think you act and how youre perceived, and Bob seems to have real trouble separating the reality from his fervent wishes. - RSK

  14. Bob Thiel, you wrote: "....And those fruits are there WITHOUT THE DOCTRINAL HERESIES AND FALSE PROPHETIC PRONOUNCEMENTS OF OTHER COG GROUPS...No one ever 'convicted me' of sin in that type of context...."

    Bob, have you ever read Romans 7 where, if the apostle Paul were alive today he would say that sin dwells within you. Sin was within him and he knew it! How so?

    "Now then it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me." Romans 7:17

    Notice Bob, that Paul did not accept responsibility for that sin, but he acknowledged that sin dwelled within him all the same! Can you say that is true of you too, or are you above sin...no matter what the context is?

    Did Paul really believe what he wrote in verse 17? Yes, b/c he goes on and says something similar again:

    :20 "Now if I do that I would not, it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me."

    Was Paul a prophet of God? He is telling you, Bob Thiel, if you are one of the sealed Firstfruits, like Paul knew he was, that sin dwells within you!

    How do you get around these verses? Those verses ought to be enough to convict you of sin that dwells within you, but you don't "see" it in you; do you?

    Here, let James explain to you how that sin dwells within you:

    "Do ye think that the scripture saith in vain, The spirit that dwelleth in us lusteth to envy?" James 4:5

    Bob Thiel, was that verse written in vain? James was a sealed Firstfruit too. That same spirit dwells within you too, and we can see it by your fruits!

    Huh?

    Well, aren't you envious of others, especially individuals in the living group you came out of?

    Huh?

    Well, are you, or are you not, lusting for some position of prophet?

    God's Church is composed of sealed Firstfruits that are built upon a solid FOUNDATION COMPOSED OF the PROPHETS, and Apostles, and Jesus Christ being the Chief Cornerstone!

    And you want us to believe you are some prophet...even if only a man-made prophet? Where do you fit within that foundation just mentioned? I'd cite the verse, but you can search it out and you are probably well aware of it.

    You might consider backing off from your desire to be some prophet, b/c like Satan you have "no legs to stand on."

    Satan too thinks he is some great one, and is the father of many "children of disobedience" (Eph 2:2). Of course, his children are not aware of that, but that's okay, but how can you not be "convicted of sin?"

    I suppose we could consider such verses as Gen 6:5, 8:21; Jeremiah 17:9; Romans 8:7 ... talking about the heart of man, but the above verses should be enough. Well, there is one more, and it speaks about you/our "best state" in life:

    Psalm 39:5 "Behold, thou hast made my days as an handbreadth; and mine age is as nothing before thee: verily every man at his best state is altogether vanity. Selah."

    Yes, Bob, in many ways we are all in the same boat with that vanity, and sin dwelling within. We know that only Jesus Christ was the only perfect sheep/lamb that God has so far made.

    So, why that desire to profess to be some prophet of God? God doesn't need you as a prophet. If He wanted a Prophet, He would just make it happen by the power of His Spirit within the individual and he wouldn't have to go around moaning and groaning about this, that and seemingly everything to serve no purpose at all.

    We know scripture tells us about two witnesses to come some day and neither of them will be a wimp, or moan and groan in the fashion you have presented yourself. They will just do their job and God will protect them everyday of their lives until their day of death comes up. God has his timing.

    Why not just quietly go back and do your chiropractic work, which may benefit some people. You won't be so stressed out, but time will tell..........

  15. Is BB the one who has the "love bromance" going on with Baron Karl zu Guttenberg, or was there a breakup?
