Bawana Bob Thiel, the Almost arrested, but not arrested, doubly blessed and dreamy visionary of the improperly named "continuing" Church of God sent a letter out to all of his followers on April 26th. It included a letter from one of his so-called evangelists in Malawi. This man describes how incredibly poor some of them are with nothing more than a mat to sleep and sit on. Then immediately after this report, Bawana Bob has pictures of the luxury hotels he and his tens of members will be staying at during the Feast of Tabernacles this year. Talk about a slap in the face at his Malawi members!
The letter below also discusses deep issues in Bawana Bob's African members:
"...major issues concerning the work in Continuing Church of God and about the congregational leadership, satanic deception and his ministry, counterfeit Christians..."
Evangelist Evans Ochieng sent the following report from Malawi:
Pastor Dr Bob
Greetings from Malawi.
I arrived Malawi safe and the trip was good. the weather was good.
On Friday I had leaders meeting . The meeting was very good. I met with all leaders from Malawi and Mozambique, I touched major issues concerning the work in Continuing Church of God and about the congregational leadership, satanic deception and his ministry, counterfeit Christians and the shepherding of God’s people.
The brethren were very keen to understand every topic and good notes were taken.
On Sabbath we kept Sabbath in Migowi. I wanted to hear from the leaders what they are teaching so I gave one of them to give sermon late. I want to tell you that the work in Malawi moving on well.
Today I visited 3 congregations in Malawi Namely. Ngunda with 24 members, Funuzi with 95 members and Namangale with 18 members. I want also to inform you that Hosea is back in CCOG. We discussed with him yesterday night for more that 2 hours. He said that nowhere he can get the truth which is in CCOG {Continuing Church of God}
The problem I find here pastor is that, these people are rich in truth but very poor. I visited 3 homes when I was going round. I found no chair, no mattress, and very little food. When we reach in these homes, the chair that they could give me to sit on, is the mat which they sleep on. I will send you the pictures. It was very sad and painful. But I was very happy in one way that they are rich in faith.
I will go to Mozambique tomorrow early in the morning to visit all the congregations there, And I will give you the report when I am back in Malawi. I am here till Wednesday … I want visit every congregation.
There is tremendous poverty in Malawi and it is one of the world’s poorest nations. We sent funds to aid the brethren there twice this month (cf. Galatians 6:10; James 2:15-18).Then he immediately goes into publicizing his improperly named Feast sites:
Feast of Tabernacles Reminder
The Feast of Tabernacles (including the Last Great Day) will be here relatively soon: starting the evening of September 23rd until sunset October 1st in 2018.
As mentioned last week, the USA sites are Alexandria, Virginia and Wichita, Kansas.
We now have signed agreements for both of the two Feast of Tabernacles’ sites in the USA for 2018.
They are the Marriott Courtyard Alexandria Old Town/Southwest, located at 2700 Eisenhower Avenue, Alexandria, VA 22314-4553, (703) 329-2323 and the Wichita Public Library, Evergreen Branch, 2601 N Arkansas, Wichita, Kansas.
Marriott Courtyard Alexandria Old Town/Southwest
Bawana Bob's second U.S. location is a public library since his group is so incredibly small.
Wichita Evergreen Library
Since the USA sites are ‘finalized,’ please email me to tell me which of those sites you plan to attend. Some of you have already done so, but others have not yet.

ReplyDeleteAbsolutely and completely insensitive at the least.
My mouth dropped open that he would do that. But it doesn't surprise me. Insensitivity is a trademark of COG types.
And a PUBLIC LIBRARY? Really?? Has any group past or present ever had a Feast of Tabernacles at a LIBRARY? They'll really have to keep it quiet in there! But there's so few of them, that shouldn't be that hard.
Even more weird - WICHITA? That's like... like.. DAYTON.
If anything, his two "Sites" really tell the story about how small his illegitimate little sect is.
What happened to Bob's "Gilligans Island" FOT Site?
ReplyDeletePUBLIC LIBRARY?
ReplyDeleteUsing the taxpayers to sponsor his fucking little church of horrors?

ReplyDeleteMY COMMENT - Did the clown Thiel provide full disclosure with his USA Feast sites photo'ed - "Our African members need not apply".
By the way, Gary was it a typo when you wrote "tens of members" (plurality) or did you really mean "ten members"? This is an honest and serious question as I didn't think he had more than 10 members in the USA.
Richard
Have the African feast sites been finalized? Or for them is it DIY?
ReplyDeleteLofF:
ReplyDeleteIt was deliberate. Bawana Bob has around 100 people in his personality cult that are not in Africa, at least according to attendance at his improperly named feast sites. !0 people here, 8 there, 9 over there, and so on with more so-called members in Europe. The rest are all in Africa who routinely jump ship from one group to the next as they seek more money and perks from white Americans.
Actually though, how can we really trust Thiel's membership counts? Has there ever been a Church of God leader who has ever told the truth about how many members are actually on their rolls? They will count anything that breathes in order to make themselves look good.
Can Thiel really be this much of a buffoon that he would do this? What an insensitive privileged prick!
