Remember three years ago when Dave Pack started shouting from Wadsworth that certain Church of God leaders were soon to be struck down and all of their members would flood into Dave's cult? Those were fun times. Every one laughed and mocked Dave when it did not happen the first time, then doubled down and mocked even more when it failed the second time. Now that the THIRD time has failed, Dave is hiding out with his high security protocols in his itty-bitty cult compound.
One would have thought that other COG "men" would have seen Pack's appalling mistake and used it as a lesson to NOT say or do the same thing. Did any of them have sense to pay attention? Not with Bob Thiel!!!!!
Today he writes:
Sadly, all the Laodicean groups (ALL COG'S) have compromised doctrinally. And unless they all (including Church of the Eternal God) do not change certain prophetic positions to align with those of the Continuing Church of God, it will eventually be clear to all who survive the start of the Great Tribulation that they should have made the move to "gather together" (Zephaniah 2:1-3; see Zephaniah: ‘Gather together’) with the CCOG before it was too late.
"Sadly, [but of course,] all the Laodicean groups (ALL COG'S) have compromised doctrinally."
ReplyDeleteTranslation:
"So this is where our movement came along and finally got the bible right."
"it will eventually be clear . . ."
ReplyDeleteWhen's that, Bob? If you really follow after Herbert, the answer is, "in just a very few short years from now."
I got time. See ya later (if I have to) -- probably a LOT later.
Generally, when you imitate someone else, it is an admission that they are either smarter or stronger than yourself. That you would do this after everyone has watched the "stronger" or "smarter" person fail three times with the strategy you are copying is beyond absurd.
ReplyDeleteAttention Bob Thiel: Point to your right temple with your right index finger, and repeat the abbreviation for the word "mountain"

Believing you are God's mouthpiece in the "last days" couldn't go wrong, could it?
ReplyDeleteDear Bob Thiel:
ReplyDeleteJust do one documentable miracle or precise irrefutable and undeniable prediction and then MAYBE we might take notice.
In the meantime, quit wasting everyones time and patience.
sadly and of course, Bob is sadly mistaken again.
ReplyDeleteWhat do you mean by "saved"?...question since time immemorial.
ReplyDeleteDang diddely.
ReplyDeleteAnyone smart enough to mention Zephaniah MUST be speaking truth, homeslice! He's my whole wheat bro.
Spread some buttah on my man Thiel!
This has been a ToasterGirl comment.
I'm thinking of a whole new image for Bob Thiel. And, it is totally compatible with what he is already doing. "The Helium Prophet"!
ReplyDeleteBob could keep a helium tank next to the desk in his make-shift youtube set. Just before making each pretentiously profound Armstrongological prophetic point, he could inhale helium, (relabeled under the trade name "Thielium"!) and make his pronouncements in an artificially cartoonish voice! Imagine learning about all of the gruesome details of the tribulation expressed through such a voice: "You Laodiceans who refuse to hear me, refuse to tithe to me, and refuse to attend my services are all going to be hauled off in cattle cars by the Germans in just three to five years! They're to take you away, ha ha! Then you'll know who was the real prophet!"
For the sake of variety, he could use other gases, such as nitrous oxide, or occasionally "poppers".
This would be so unique, that he might finally go viral on the internet, and no longer be ignored! He could even have a dead mentor on the set as does Craig Ferguson, only Thiel's version would speak with a French-Armenian accent!

Old XPCG,
ReplyDelete"Saved" is a typo.
He actually wants you to be "slaved" like most Christian churches do.
All Hail The Mightly Thiel, savior of mankind.
ReplyDeleteOnly believe in our great leader and you will be saved.
Christ is now obsolete and only Bobby Thiel, great savior of all can help you now.
Come, come, come to the church of Thiel and receive ye the kingdom.
Don't you have to prophecy something in order to be a prophet? What in the world did this guy ever prophecy ?
ReplyDeleteThis is beyond wacky
So, Bob Thiel thinks/writes that: "...they should have made the move to "gather together" (Zephaniah 2:1-3; see Zephaniah: ‘Gather together’) with the CCOG before it was too late."
ReplyDeleteBob, every time you write stuff like this you prove you are NO PROPHET! You forever take things out of context.
If you were any sort of a fraction of a true prophet, it would be plain to see that the context of Zeph 2:1-3 does not occur until AFTER SATAN EXITS THE BOTTOMLESS PIT!
Zeph 2:1 Gather yourselves together, yea, gather together, O nation not desired;
2 Before the decree bring forth, before the day pass as the chaff, before the fierce anger of the LORD come upon you, before the day of the LORD’S anger come upon you.
3 Seek ye the LORD, all ye meek of the earth, which have wrought his judgment; seek righteousness, seek meekness: it may be ye shall be hid in the day of the LORD’S anger.
Bob, when you cite scripture, why don't you write out the verses for us to read. If you did do that you might catch yourself and see how ridiculous your comment would actually be and not write it.
If I am to be gathered I prefer it not be unto Continuing "church" group, but in accordance with 2 Thess 2:1-3.
I guess I better write it out so that I don't come across as a hypocrite:
2 Thess 2:1 Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto him,
2 That ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand.
3 Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;
Now, that will be some gathering, not unto you/SELF...or some group, but unto Jesus Christ.
But Bob, watch out for that context, b/c that gathering won't happen until 2 things simultaneously occur:
1. there come a falling away first
2. and that man of sin be revealed
You, Bob, have yet to properly identify the true identity of the beast, let along properly identify the true identity of that "man of sin!"
What makes you think anybody would really want to follow you? Who are you? Not a prophet!
Bob, it appears that you are just like so many of us...scattered.
Let us know when you know have identified the "man of sin," and please write out the verses to back up what you conclude.
John
Bottom line is there's nobody out there in a privileged position who have special access to the supernatural information to guide you into the graces of some god. There just isn't. Anybody who tells you he does is conning you. He may be fooling himself too, but he's definitely trying to fool you. There's no prophets, apostles, witnesses, oracles, shaman, witches, soothsayers or mediums. If there ever were, there sure as shit aren't now.
ReplyDeleteYou, Bob, have yet to properly identify the true identity of the beast
ReplyDeleteOh, now John, this question has been settled for awhile now -- we all know it's Karl-Theodor Maria Nikolaus Johann Jacob Philipp Franz Joseph Sylvester Freiherr von und zu Guttenberg, until someone better comes along....
We all know about Bob's "bromance" with Karl-Theodor Maria Nikolaus Johann Jacob Philipp Franz Joseph Sylvester Freiherr von und zu Guttenberg (aka, "The Baron).
ReplyDeleteAlthough TV Guide's description may seem a little long-winded if they include The Baron's entire name, I suggest that ABC produce "The Bachelor- End Times Edition", with The Baron as the bachelor, and Bob Thiel as one of the ladies being courted.
Will it be Armageddon if Bob Thiel gets the final rose?
Will it be Armageddon if Bob Thiel doesn't get the final rose?
Will the ABC producers give Bob 'three to five' years to get properly primped for a future final fantastic episode- if he doesn't get the rose this time?
Will Bob spray a double dose of cologne on himself, causing The Baron to sneeze profusely?
Stay close to TV Guide and ABC for the answers to these and other important questions!
Does Guttenberg, aka "the baron," have 7 heads...with lots of zeal? Even symbolically?
ReplyDeleteThe likes of Bob Thiel, Ron Weinland, Dave Pack, James Malm (BRDJ) all have a heart problem, which is expressed by their tongues.
How so? Lots of self-righteous boasting as they compared themselves with all others. What do their tongues have to say?
James 3:5 Even so the tongue is a little member, and boasteth great things. Behold, how great a matter a little fire kindleth!
:6 And the tongue is a fire, a world of iniquity: so is the tongue among our members, that it defileth the whole body, and setteth on fire the course of nature; and it is set on fire of hell.
:7 For every kind of beasts, and of birds, and of serpents, and of things in the sea, is tamed, and hath been tamed of mankind:
:8 But the tongue can no man tame; it is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison.
:9 Therewith bless we God, even the Father; and therewith curse we men, which are made after the similitude of God.
:10 Out of the same mouth proceedeth blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not so to be.
BRDJ (Bob, Ron, Dave, James) just can't believe that God does not need any of their tongues wagging, that God, in ways unknown to them, will do the following:
Phil 1:6 Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you WILL PERFORM IT until the day of Jesus Christ:
Paul believed God would finish/perform, complete, what He began in a sealed Firstfruit's life. God cannot lie.
And Paul said that about "his long-time friends," while knowing the following was true about himself:
Romans 7:17 Now then it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me.
:20 Now if I do that I would not, it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me.
:21 I find then a law, that, when I would do good, evil is present with me.
And, of course, Paul knew his friends also had sin and evil too...and so do BRDJ! Yes, I include myself too.
Another verse BRDJ can't believe, because it gives all glory, honor, praise to God, and none to SELF, is the following:
"To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them;" 2 Corinthians 5:19
God DOES IT! He does it His way!
Why isn't God going to impute trespasses unto the world? Is it because they followed human beings like BRDJ? Was it because the world learned to have zeal about God's commandments and zealously observing them?
I submit that BRDJ never perfectly observed one Sabbath day in their entire lives perfectly for 24 hours...all 1440 minutes without sinning once!
Why can't they do it? They have a heart problem. They have a tongue problem. They have the following spirit dwelling within:
:5 "Do ye think that the scripture saith in vain, The spirit that dwelleth in us lusteth to envy?" James 4:5
Oh, and there is plenty of zeal with that spirit. It especially likes to blame/judge human beings harshly...sometimes even condemn others to some "Great Tribulation," even the lake of fire.
What kind of a "spirit" would that have to be? Oh, how foolish it is to compare oneSELF with others...
I will conclude with one more verse that would give BRDJ a heart/tongue problem:
"Verily I say unto you, All sins shall be forgiven unto the sons of men, and blasphemies wherewith soever they shall blaspheme:" Mark 3:28
Of course, that verse would not be a problem if they thought something like this: "Jesus Christ said it. I believe Jesus Christ. That's that!"
But none of them can say that today, but they will ... later!
John
