Herbert Armstrong's Tangled Web of Corrupt Leaders

Do COG Leaders In 2017 Suffer Persecution Like Jesus Did?


For someone who claims to be directly appointed by his god, through dreams, revelations and double blessings by an apostate splinter COG minister, God's most important end time man sure has a delicate sensibility.

The Apostle, second witless witness, martyr and Mayan authority claims he is being persecuted just like Jesus was.  Oh, get down off your cross Bob!  Someone in Africa needs it for firewood!

Apparently, Elisha, Amos Habbakuk, Thiel took exception to comments made by readers here.
Those who post lies at the Banned site need to realize that God will judge. The Banned site should not allow people to post lies, but it does. People lied about Jesus, Paul, and others.
The Bible also teaches:
15... outside are dogs and sorcerers and sexually immoral and murderers and idolaters, and whoever loves and practices a lie. (Revelation 22:15) 
No one truly in the Church of God would spread this pork lie and other lies about me. Hopefully, no one reading this page believes the lies either.
Self-appointed Thiel fails to acknowledge that he is a liar.  That is a fact.   God did not set him up to be a splinter group leader.  He did that himself.  God did not send special double blessings through the hands of Gaylon Bonjour that set Thiel apart as a church leader.  That also is a fact.  God did not inspire Rod Meredith or Richard Ames to declare Thiel to be a prophet.  God had no part in the warped sensibilities of Meredith or Ames when they said (as Thiel declares with no proof) that he could be a prophet.  Armstrongism is full of myriads of men who have set themselves up as false teachers, just as Scripture said they would.  Every one of them has been proven to be liars.

So Bob, who really is the liar?

  1. No way are they persecuted! If they are it is because of the dumb sh*t that they bring upon themselves!

  3. In all the years I was around Bob in LCG I found him to be a condescending prick who thought he was better than everyone else. No one knew more about the Bible than he did. Anyone can see that in his stupid videos. Real Christians would never be part of his self-made empire.

    1. Sounds Exactly Like Every Minister I've Ever Known In The Armstrong COG. A Bunch Of Condescending, Arrogant Pricks.

    2. Relax, Bob! It isn't persecution until they accuse you of incest! Hell, I ate pork with heads of state. (They never suspected I was a racist!)

  4. Gaylon Bonjour himself said that he had ZERO, NONE, NADA, ZIPPO intention of ordaining Bobby, and was only anointing him for his temporal illness. THIEL IS A LIAR!

    BTW- Gaylon Bonjour missed his calling! He has got the greatest name for having a cooking show, or his own brand of gourmet foods!

  5. Where did he post this? I take it he took umbrage with the "I saw Bob Thiel eat pork in LCG" handle someone used?

  6. Only a spoiled ass like Bob would fail to recognize the difference between "feeling butthurt" and "suffering persecution."

  7. If its is God™ then they should be working in a ministry free of charge and "Let God provide".

  9. "Those who post lies at the Banned site need to realize that God will judge. The Banned site should not allow people to post lies, but it does. People lied about Jesus, Paul, and others."

    A) Yeah, and then later other people bound those lies together and they called it the New Testament.

    B) We're not the ones lying here.

    C) We're not quaking in our boots at your "You'll be sorry" theological fearmongering. Especially when you're the doing the lying.

  10. Ooh, "Thiel's spiel"...nice one, Gary!

  11. There are other precedent ministries in COGdom, not unlike that of Bob Thiel. I believe that the late David ben Ariel's office and ministry came from a very similar place. David didn't seem to have as deep a persecution complex, though.

  12. Love it. "It has come to my attention that many in LCG and outside of the Continuing Church of God believe the falsehood that I left LCG because it would not recognize me as a prophet..."

    Bob, one of your stated issues with LCG was that they did not accept "that a prophet is higher in rank than an evangelist"! You said it on your own page!

  13. Personally, I think it's curtains for Bob. Definitely he is being persecuted over his curtains. Maybe not so much persecution as , why can't he see how unprofessional, rambling and completely boring his sermons are?

  14. Bobbies sermons are so boring that a rabid raccoon would drown its self before it had to listen to him.

  15. BB: At least with David Ben Ariel, he had some personality and was actually a nice person once he was not preoccupied wth Armstrongism. Thiel, on the other hand, has a history of narcissism and arrogance, so much so that many refused to be around him.

    1. I did have a conversation with David ben Ariel on an earlier ACOG related forum, and you are correct: he was not arrogant. He had posted there under specific warning from the moderator, and patiently answered some questions posters had for him.

      There are others, however, who constantly prove the fact that it is impossible to have any sort of meaningful conversation with a cult zombie. All you get is an adamant repetition of all of the cult's official positions (and it seems they have one for anything and everything that one might ask). This makes any sort of real relationship impossible, unless you are also a cult zombie and enjoy repeating the internal cliches back and forth.

  16. Yeah sure, God will judge those exposing evil, but not the ones committing the evil.
    Typical minister talk. They assume they can control members minds, and that people won't think for themselves. I experienced this over and over in my encounters with the Gestapo/though-police ministers.

  17. We know Bob had dreams, but recently I had a dream about Bob…

    I usually wake up too early, turn on the radio and fall back to sleep. The other day, I had a dream about sitting in a circle of people, with Bob on my left. Whatever was happening, Bob said something to me like, I wouldn’t answer any questions about Christmas. I replied something like, It depends on what the question is. Then I woke up. The radio was finishing a morning devotional, and the topic was, Balaam the Hireling Prophet.
    That afternoon, I was asked by a high school teacher to do a voiceover for an audio/video presentation. I went to the school and was given a script – the first page had to do with facts about Christmas…
    Before I start imagining that to be a divine call and go picking a name for yet another new COG (YANCOG? Sounds okay) I’d better keep to the tradition – join an existing COG and get disfellowshipped or become bitter and leave and discredit their leadership.
