Why is it that the Church of God movement is filled with so many morons who claim to be reincarnated Old Testament prophets? It would be something if these men were actual prophets and said things that made sense and were actually precise prophecies, but since every single one of them self-appointed themselves they all come off looking as complete imbeciles, particularly as men who NO ONE wants to follow.
This brings us today to our most highly favored Great Bwana to Africa and 100 Caucasians. Besides being the Great Bwana and Chief Overseer of the improperly named "continuing Church of "god" the Great Bwana has also taken upon himself the titles of Joshua, Elisha, Elijah, Amos, and other Old Testament prophets. God must have been oblivious to this when he made plans for Bob Thiel's coming in the perilous end times as God's one and only true Church of God leader. For some reason, the plan of salvation had this dude named Jesus in it and not Bwana Bob, but that has never stopped Bwana Bob from imagining himself as part of that plan of salvation.
After his humiliating banishment from the Living Church of God by his mentor Rod Meredith, the soon-to-be great Prophet started having a bunch of nightmares. Believing he was like Joseph Smith in receiving visions from his god, the soon-to-be Great Bwana decided to set up his own church where he did not have to answer to anyone. This soon led the Great Bwana to start imagining himself on par with the Old Testament prophets and sages. The problem here is that Great Bwana could not pick just one to emulate, he has had to compare himself to almost every single one listed in the Old Testament.
This brings us to Amos, the biblical prophet who is everything Bwana Bob is not.
The Great Bwana writes:
The Eastern Orthodox considers today to be a memorial day for the Hebrew Prophet Amos (the Church of Rome uses March 31st).
Here is some information about him from Wikipedia:
Amos, an older contemporary of Hosea and Isaiah,[1] was active c. 750 BC during the reign of Jeroboam II,[1] (786–746 BC) making the Book of Amos the first biblical prophetic book written. Amos lived in the kingdom of Judah but preached in the northern kingdom of Israel. (Book of Amos. viewed 02/22/2014)Before becoming a prophet, Amos was a sheep herder and a sycamore fig farmer. Amos’ prior professions and his claim “I am not a prophet nor a son of a prophet” (7:14) indicate that Amos was not from the school of prophets, which Amos claims makes him a true prophet (7:14). His prophetic career began in 750 BCE out of the town of Tekoa, in Judah, south of Jerusalem. (Amos the Prophet, viewed 02/22/2014)
It is interesting that he had to tell people that one becomes a true prophet in a manner that most did not expect. The Apostle Paul attempted to defend his apostleship in that same manner (2 Corinthians 11:5, 22-29)–and that was to people who were supposedly in the Church of God.
One of the messages that Amos proclaimed is that the time would come when people would not be able to find the words of God:
11 “Behold, the days are coming,” says the Lord God,“That I will send a famine on the land,Not a famine of bread,Nor a thirst for water,But of hearing the words of the Lord.12 They shall wander from sea to sea,And from north to east;They shall run to and fro, seeking the word of the Lord,But shall not find it. (Amos 8:11-12)
The words Amos spoke were fulfilled when judgment was placed upon Israel and they went into captivity, so there is no way that Bwana Bob can even compare to him. Amos' words predict the coming judgment of God against Israel for neglecting the poor among them and extending grace to them. Judgment was pronounced upon them and they went into captivity, as the story says.
Bwana Bob, being the Bob that he is finds something far different in the story. He finds internet censorship in the above words.
I kid you not!
Bwana Bob's lunacy has no end to the extremes his mind can wander.
I believe that the above warning is a reference to a coming internet censorship. And in the Continuing Church of God, we have already experienced some of this.
But the major fulfillment is likely to start just before the start of the time of Jacob’s trouble (Jeremiah 30:7), also called the Great Tribulation (Matthew 24:21).
Perhaps under the guise of “neutrality,” perhaps under the guise of “The Patriot Act,” perhaps under the guise of “public welfare,” perhaps because of alleged “intolerance,” calling parts of the COG message “hate speech” and/or national security threats/issues, something will be done to stop perhaps all of the organized media efforts to proclaim biblical truths. A short work will be done, which will trigger the end (Matthew 24:14), and likely then the famine of the word (Amos 8:11-12).
Then he grasps for more straws to build his fake narrative and says this is a warning to the United States, England, and all the other so-called British Israelite nations.
Amos is giving a warning to those called by Jacob’s name (which was also Israel), whom according to Jacob himself, would seem to be a reference to the descendants of Ephraim and Manasseh (Genesis 48:16). In modern times, this would be the Anglo-Saxon nations such as Canada, the UK, Australia, and New Zealand, and also the United States of America. The reference to trusting Mt. Samaria in Amos 6:1 could be a reference to trusting the USA to defend in the end. That will not end well for the USA or its allies of the Anglo-Saxon nations.
What really frosts Bwana Bob's delicate butt is that NO ONE believes he is Amos and he is NOT happy! Shame on you Laodiceans! Heck, even his African followers do not believe he is Amos!
Of course, few in those nations believe that they will be taken over and have such calamity. But that will come to pass. Most would not listen to Amos then, and most, sadly, will not listen to Amos now.
You can see the visual story of Amos here and the meaning it has for us today. Not the crap that Bwana Bob teaches.

Alleged moron's proclaiming themselves to be reincarnated old testament prophets !!???
What places have you being hanging out NO2HWA????? And with whom ???
The famine of hearing the words of the Lord, which Amos prophesied, is fulfilled in those who listen to Bob's sermons and hear the words of Mayan and Catholic prophecies, and who hear about a false prophet instead of That Prophet, Jesus Christ.
Bob always hedges his bets when he shares his other prophecies. The only prophecy he shares with firm conviction is the prophecy that he, Bob, is a prophet. That alone should be a dire warning. Just like the false Christians he condemns, who he says proclaim a message ABOUT Christ instead of Christ's message, Bobby teaches a message ABOUT Bob, while Bob's actual message is waffly and full of possiblys instead of "Thus saith the Lord".

He has a big imagination to pretend he is one or all of them. He doesn't use his imagination the way God intended. He is too ignorant of the Bible to figure this out on his own.
I thought Gerald Flurry was Amos.
Knock, knock.
>>Who's there?
Bob.

Bobblehead "Amos Bob"
Amos Moses! (Jerry Reed's smash hit from the '70s)
You are laying peacefully in your hospital bed. There is no pain, because the nurse has adjusted your morphine drip. You know you are going to die, it's just a matter of time and inevitability now, so you are pondering the deep philosophical questions you have had for most of your adult life, and anticipating the answers you will soon be receiving as you transition into the next phase of existence. You slip into unconsciousness for the final time.
Suddenly, you awaken to an agrarian, pastoral,scene. Sheep are bleating in the background. There is a clumsy old man standing in front of you, who suddenly says, "Hi! I'm Dr. Robert Thiel. I was a prophet in the previous life and am here to be your guide for the next hundred years! I'm here to teach you about God's government and the law!"
You wring your hands as you think to yourself, "This is all??????????" What a letdown!"
I'm profesighing: Five "perhaps" and a "likely" in one paragraph from the only prophet. Can't be. Many false prophets have gone out into the world.`
You are laying peacefully in your hospital bed. There is no pain, because the nurse has adjusted your morphine drip.... You slip into unconsciousness for the final time. Suddenly, you awaken to an agrarian, pastoral,scene. Sheep are bleating in the background. There is a clumsy old man standing in front of you, who suddenly says, "Hi! I'm Dr. Robert Thiel. I was a prophet in the previous life and am here to be your guide for the next hundred years! I'm here to teach you about God's government and the law!"
...and then you remember, you're on a morphine drip. You must be hallucinating.
I keep sensing a deeper state of paranoia and fear in old Bob's tone of late. He is desperate to be recognized as something legitimate. Too late, fake prophet. You spent your wad long ago when you declared YOURSELF a prophet, NOT God.
I reread the letter Rod Meredith sent him. I was under the impression RCM told him that God might consider him a prophet, but that is NOT what Rod said. He told Bob he NEVER EVER considered him to be a prophet.
Nobody considers you a prophet Bob. You are wasting your time, breath and energy on something utterly illegitimate. Why must you be someone important? Why is being a born again, saved Christian, safe in the certainty of your eternal life not enough? You don't seem to understand that gives you away. No genuine Christian would give a rat's a** if folks thought they were anything other than a brother or sister in Christ. But your insistence on being an OT doppelganger and a prophet are provably false and give the whole game away...But you don't see it. Your ego and pride are too big for your talent and intelligence, not to mention your honesty. Or lack thereof, in your case.
No one believes you because you are unbelievable. No one trusts you because you are not trustworthy. No one is going to follow you because you are a follower, not a leader. Give it a rest Bob, please. Just become a Christian and life will change in ways you have never been able to "make" happen.
Bob has been in a constant state of paranoia for many years now. This blog has made a significant dent in his ability to gain new members. Between Rod Meredith, the entire LCG ministry, and LCG members turning their backs on him, him being exposed here, on the Painful Truth, and the stuff Gavin Rumney wrote, Bob has been able to make inroads in the COG movement. It is all hype and delusional speculation and a deliberate fudging of numbers. No one is impressed.
Why does he focus so much on people seeing him as a prophet? Whether he is or isn't what's the diff? Would folks follow him more if they believed he is a prophet? It wouldn't change their Bible beliefs. Even if he did receive a double portion of the spirit how would that matter? Are others less righteous? What about the daughters of Philip who had the gift of prophecy, were these ladies given a so-called double portion of the spirit? What about Agabbus? It would be nice if the guy who prayed over him from living cog would just speak up and clear it up. Maybe the guy secretly believes Bob but he doesn't want to say it out loud.
It does make a difference if people believe in false prophets. It severely damages their identity, destiny, finances, relationships. Sometimes they commit suicide believing the lies.
