Religion and Politics are like a swimming pool.
All the noise is at the shallow end
Like all of the Churches of God HWA, being the True one is a given. Leaders are the true middlemen for the Deity and all the members are the chosen ones as opposed to the vast majority of humanity being the unchosen. At least until they stumble upon Bob Thiel or rather are directed to Bob by God.
Bob Thiel is infected with the "I alone virus as well and like a Dave Pack or Gerald Flurry truly believes that "Over 99%" of humanity base their lives on false beliefs, as opposed to himself of course.
Bob also implies that it is he alone that has studied "early Christianity and the Bible honestly."
This is all classic Little Big Man arrogance and ego-centric tale weaving. Dave Pack and Gerald Flurry also believe the same things about their own versions of their imagined truths. Dave and Gerald lower the NT bar of "he that is greatest among you, let him be your servant" and qualify as abusive Religionists. Dr. Thiel just seems mistaken about his "I only" views and needs to be seen as one who can see ahead prophetically what others can also and merely perceive by reading the news for themselves. Somehow being one with special and otherworldly insights is important to Bob.
That said and evidently, all those outside of the Continuing Church of God are merely, like synthetic vitamins, cheap knock offs and their Christian faith is both fake and of no nutritional value. In fact, they will probably get spiritual cancer from it all unless they switch to his Natural and Continuing Church of God and himself as the only middleman in all of Christianity approved by the Deity.
Fake vitamins, false religion, many swallow both
I Alone, Not You, says....
"Synthetic vitamins are a lot like false religion. False religion DOES NOT BRING salvation, despite what people like Pope Francis have indicated.Because of tradition, family influence, and/or social pressures, most people (over 99%) have a faith (religious, atheistic, or agnostic) that is based upon false belief.Ignoring eastern faiths which do not even claim Jesus, let’s simply state that those who have studied early Christianity and the Bible honestly realize that what is practiced by the Roman Catholics, Protestants, and Eastern Orthodox is in massive contradiction to the “faith once for all delivered to the saints” (Jude 3). The same can also be said of the Jehovah’s Witnesses, Messianic Jews, Seventh-day Adventists, and the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (Mormons).The reality is those in those religions tend to have a false understanding of salvation and do not understand God’s plan. The truth about the early Christian church and what happened to it can be known (see Continuing History of the Church of God). Where the most faithful Christian church is can also be determined (see Where is the True Christian Church Today?).,,,Most WILL NOT WORSHIP GOD IN TRUTH, but instead cling to falsehoods and false traditions. Many use Jesus’ name, but He says He will say to many that He does not know them.Like those who swallow synthetic vitamins, nearly all take false beliefs into their hearts and minds all the time. They hope, despite the truth, that salvation will come from faiths built upon falsehood.Consuming large amounts of synthetic vitamins can increase the risk of cancer and other diseases. Being a consumer of false religion does not lead to salvation in this age."
Some thoughts on the "I alone, not you" thingy:

The Dow Jones industrial average is down over 700 points. That's over
ReplyDelete2%. just at the beginning of the feast of Tabernacles. What a co incidence. Seems like Satan and his demons get emotional on this date and the Passover. Again, what a co incidence?
Last year the DJIA was doing just fine around both time periods. Coincidence?

DeleteThe ship Ever Given blocked the Suez canal around Passover. Today the Dow dropped a thousand points before the Fed plunge protection team pushed it up 400 points shortly before the close. If you back test, there is often a major international event prior to Passovet or Tabernacles. Major moves on the Dow just prior to these days is common. If you are a trader, it's foolish not to keep a close eye on these dates.
It seems like 3,000 Africans swallowed the fake religion of Bob Thiel just as easily as they swallowed the other Sabbatarian churches they were formally with. Imagine what they will think when they find out their church was started by a professional white liar who was kicked out of the church for rebellion.
ReplyDeletePill peddling homeopath, fake minister, fake church leader, fake church = Bob Thiel
ReplyDeleteUCG has lots of political people specifically conservatives.
ReplyDelete1.13 PM
DeleteThe UCG and the other ACOG splinters are morally left wing. On other issues such as abortion and national defence, they are conservative.
Unlike the lording ACOGs, traditional conservatives believe in freedom and limited government.
Agree 5:58. UCG more left than right wing generally. The more natural conservative UCG are now COGWA.
DeleteThe DJIA is irrelevant so no coincidence
ReplyDeleteBob studied the bible but probably didn't study paganism. That would explain why he does not talk about how much of the bible was plagiarized. He has tunnel vision.
ReplyDelete" If you back test, there is often a major international event prior to Passover or Tabernacles. "
ReplyDeleteThat magical god at work again, or is it Satan? No matter what day of the year it is, if a COG prophet wants to dig deep enough, he will find an event that will fit his scenario. In the meantime this is utter foolishness.
Coming from an established church and into the COG was a shocker to me. I never saw or heard so many shallow conversations by COG Members as I did. It was always superficial or in strict accordance with a booklet. It was always more gossip than anything else. No one ever discussed the Bible or core Christian beliefs like grace and justification. Discussing Jesus was NEVER done.
ReplyDelete"Bob studied the bible but probably didn't study paganism. That would explain why he does not talk about how much of the bible was plagiarized. He has tunnel vision."
ReplyDeleteThats because Bob is pagan at there and it would not work for him to examine his own life.
eh, it's based on the idea that God works through only 1 man at a time...but in studying the NT I can't find anything to support that notion.....if anything, God is working through many many men, constantly, and they don't necessarily know what the others are doing.
ReplyDeleteBob is on his way to the spaceship behind the next comet….then comes the purple covers and the horse tranquilizers.
ReplyDeleteThe urine is most certainly more concentrated in the shallow end of the pool.
ReplyDeleteThis brings to mind a great story about the college swimming pool and people urinating in it.
ReplyDeleteThere is a clear solution we added to the pool and when ever someone pee's in it there would be a purple cloud forming around them.
Well, guess who were the biggest offenders for taking a leak in the gym pool…faculty members and ministers! We had to stop adding it to the pool so that we did nto embarass the higher ups.
Rules are for the little guys and not for the elite.
NO2HWA - you don't understand. Purple is for royalty.
ReplyDeleteThey read the scriptures dyslexically, and somehow got "urine" and thummim instead of urim and thummim.
