How Reading "Mere Christianity" Led A Person To Join Bob Thiel's Improperly Named "continuing" Church Of God.


C S Lewis would be appalled to know that his book, Mere Christianity, led a person to consider the cult of Bob Thiel a legitimate Christian belief system. Mere Christianity's focus is upon Jesus, not on the mindless rants of Bob Thiel who is embarrassed by Jesus. It is shocking to see how easily this person threw any belief in Jesus out the door in order to believe the rants of Theil, the Great Savior of Africa, and now 304 Caucasians.

Thiel's attempts to claim Christian legitimacy by tossing in Lewis to bolster up his miserable belief system is pathetic.

You do not know me or my family but way back when we were called I began a search for truth. 
 
This lead me to reading Mere Christianity then on to understanding the ten commandments and finding a “church” that still followed those commandments which led me to a cross road of Ellen White or HWA. 
 
Before we were baptized by Mr. Way and Mr. Milliach of KC LCG in 2008 you played a pivotal role in my path to finding the Truth of Gods word and HWA. 
 
I bought your book way back when, thought so much of your inspired works. For many of years I had not followed your work as LCG was adamantly opposed to your work to eventually me seeing for myself that I could no longer subject my family to LCG and since having left we have been  without sound teachings UNTIL your sermons lately where I found you teaching relevant truths in bwhich we find ourselves today while ALL are obsessed and purposefully ignorant of many things but you have boldly proclaimed truth.

A little later he starts ragging on the Living Church of God again for refusing to join up with him. The Great Bwana still does not realize that 99% of LCG members know him to be a liar and false teacher. Given that, why would they join up with Bob?

If those once part of my prior group were aware of the truth, more would be with CCOG (note: I do not believe that the current top leader in LCG actually knows the truth about this, so it is little wonder that almost no minister, etc. with them do as well). 
 
Also, earlier this month someone from Arizona also emailed and said he was now going to support CCOG. Furthermore, a couple in the Netherlands who expressed interest earlier, emailed and said they were now convinced to be part of CCOG and asked to be considered as part of us. 
 
We are reaching people, and having people respond around the world.

5 new potential members and Thiel is bragging about how awesome his "work" is growing. So pathetic.

    Gathering followers is not evidence of truth nor credibility.

  2. Whoopie Doo! 5 New potential converts! Like all ACOGs, very low wattage works. Nothing compares to HWA and the WCG in its glory years for reach.

    My question is how many converts have been called as a result of the Cartoon Bob animations? I thought Cartoon Bob once heralded animation as this huge open door which God opened for the grossly mis-named Continuing Church of God. I don't see much on Bob's cartoons. Did he create his own cartoon network and I missed it? Or, did Cartoon Bob lack the FAITH to walk through God's open door?

    When it comes to double minded almost arrested for Sabbath keeping Cartoon Dr. Bobby Thiel, there are many questions, few (if any) answers.

  4. 5 new potential members

    Gone are the days when Bob claimed the CCOG was the "fastest growing non-GTA COG in the 21st century".

    Occasionally I ponder what "calls" someone to a particular church. Apart from my COG experiences, I've never heard "searching for Truth" given as a reason for joining a particular church. I know with my mother the main criterion off-street parking.

  5. Of course all God's children matter, 1:58, My point was, how is making a lateral move from one pos false church to another pos false church of any significance at all??? It most certainly does not make whatever point Bob Theil is guiding us towards.

    I am not at all heartIess. I wish with all my being that all of these people still ensnared by these Armstrongite splinters could escape to freedom, not just switch to slightly different brands of the same toxic product.

  7. All of the Armstrong groups make it difficult to join. Even on Facebook the unofficial Church of God, A Worldwide Association group is controlled by a guy named Mark and he makes it almost impossible to join tat group.

  8. I should not send anything to this blog, or have anything to do with this blog, even I do out of the goodness of my heart. Because this blog is fighting against God, have become God's enemies, are trying to "stop" God's work from being done on earth, of preaching/ proclaiming to the world Christ's gospel. And making friends with/ choosing, God's enemies as your friends also, those who once were members of God's Church but have departed from the faith, departed from God and God's right way of life, and have gone after Satan's wrong way. You cannot be the friend of God, and also the friend of Satan God's enemy at the same time. You have to choose either one or the other.

  9. About RCG, you should feel lucky to have a church with law and order.

  10. Christ is building the kingdom of God through the true church the church of God.

  11. 4:28 said "Christ is building the kingdom of God through the true church the church of God."

    God help us all if we are to look to todays COG groups as a foretaste of the Kingdom of God. We are screwed if they are. Never has the church been in such a mess as it is today. With deluded church leaders, lying prophets, rapists, pedophiles, greedy money hungry men, and so many self-appointed leaders that there is no longer any hope left in the COG movement.

  12. Then stick with your vomit, TC. All you do by showing up here is remind people of how bad life was during the years that we were deceived by HWA, or his lackey-boys.

  13. Anon 4:44 PM the truth that HWA taught does not deceive it only will and has set you free from the lies of the world and the catholic church.

  14. Any outsiders reading this can clearly see True Chtistian is a fake blog devised.

  15. TC, you are a prime example of someone being deceived. You think kissing Dace Pack’s ass sets you free. Dave yelling, spiting, rambling on and on is truth. Predicting Christ will return this Friday, next Friday, next new moon, next holy day, next whatever is truth. I am glad you post your nonsense. Makes me glad I walked away 25 years ago. I understand, you need someone to tell you what to do. Dave probably tells you how to tie yours shoes. Sad.
