For quite some time now the greatest Church of God prophet and leader in the history of humanity has had. a deep crush on Karl-Theodor zu Guttenberg from Germany. That alone should tell you all you need to know when a COG prophet utters the word Germany you immediately see visions of concentration camps and jack-booted armies destroying the United States, Canada, and England. It is the ultimate wet dream of the degenerate COG false prophets. Nothing gets these little fools off more than sadistic violence and torture that they need to see happen to all who refuse to heed their idiotic utterances.
The three biggest loudmouths in the Church of God movements that hyperventilate over Germany are Gerald Weston of the Living Church of God, Gerald Flurry of the Philadelphia Church of God, and our highly favored but itty-bitty prophet the Great Bwana to Africa, and 100 Caucasians Bob Thiel of the improperly named "continuing" Church of God.
When God was creating the prophet that would arise to warn the world when the end was nigh, he inculcated in its mind the name Karl-Theodor zu Guttenberg. Once this greatest prophet in the history of Christianity arrived on the scene, Karl-Theodor zu Guttenberg began to occupy his mind in fantastical dreams and hallucinations.
The Great Bwana envisions Guttenberg rising up in power as the soon-coming Beast of Revelation and leading an army that will besiege Jerusalem and hop over the ocean to slaughter Americans and but the rest in concentration camps.
The itty-bitty Great Bwana read an article about Guttenberg where he said that he had no desire to continue on politics. The Great BWaan was highly disturbed by his comments:
Karl-Theodor zu Guttenberg: I have made peace with my failure at the time
The new Guttenberg writes openly about his weaknesses and insecurities, yes you have admitted: “I am no stranger to depression either.” And you admit: “I was mercilessly overestimated.”
Guttenberg: Everything is correct. The following applies to my texts and statements: I try to reveal weaknesses authentically and without coquetry. This consequently includes fears and aspects of my mental life. …
You also seem to have treated yourself to some extent with self-irony.
Guttenberg (laughs): Oh yes! What could be better than laughing at yourself! That just makes life more fun. And there really are plenty of reasons to make fun of yourself. A few days ago I was at a panel discussion where a professor said she wrote her doctoral thesis about failure. In a rare moment of repartee, I replied: “And I failed my doctoral thesis.” We all had a hearty laugh. …
Does the intensive contact with the left Gysi make you move politically to the left?
Guttenberg: I am difficult to place politically. I’m not a classic conservative. I feel at home in the political center. Sometimes I identify with more left-wing and sometimes with conservative attitudes. I will no longer allow myself to be forced into a camp. …
At 51, you seem at peace with yourself after a long up and a crashing down. Have you become a completely relaxed person or is there also a show involved?
Guttenberg: I have arrived at my place. My well-being no longer depends on the applause or goodwill of others. But one thing challenges my composure: I’m worried about the tone, also the unforgiveness in our society, this absolute will to immediately deliver the next verbal, devastating blow. …
What Bwana Bob Conveniently leaves out is the rest of the comment
Some of your readers on LinkedIn want nothing more than for Karl-Theodor zu Guttenberg politics returns to the circus of
Guttenberg: Why should I? My time is over.
Then at the end of the article, there is this:
The Irish poet Samuel Beckett wrote: “Try again. Fail again. Fail better.” Is “Fail better” the life motto of Karl-Theodor zu Guttenberg?
Guttenberg: In the end, this insight from Beckett is a cipher for the art of leading a better life. Such a life can only be achieved if you make peace with yourself and your surroundings and become a forgiving person. I can gain a lot from Beckett’s insight. Many people used to see me as something I wasn’t. They projected something into me that didn’t exist in me.
People believed that as a dashing, young nobleman they could save Germany, and they were even believed to be able to, Angela Merkel to be replaced as Chancellor. There was a lot of hype about you.
Guttenberg: It was sometimes bizarre what people projected into me.
Of course, the Great Bwana KNOWS otherwise, but to make sure he covers his ass, he makes this statement:
Maybe he is out, maybe he is not.
Why are COG prophets such wish-washy bumbling idiots? Can they ever take a stand on anything?
While he has been officially out of politics for some time, he has stayed connected to it.
As far as him making peace with his plagiarism scandal, Herr Guttenberg later went to another university and got another doctorate. From a political perspective that at least shows he has the intellect to attain a doctorate.
Dr. Guttenberg is currently somewhat of a political commentator, which means that he still has involvement and that he reaches people on a regular basis with his political views.
Now, the Bible tells about a leader who was once disgraced that prophesied to rise up:
21 And there shall stand up in his place one despised, and the kingly honour shall not be given him: and he shall come privately, and shall obtain the kingdom by fraud. (Daniel 11:21, Douay-Rheims)
21 “‘His place will be taken by a reject, a man spurned and passed over for advancement. He’ll surprise everyone, seemingly coming out of nowhere, and will seize the kingdom. (Daniel 11:21 from THE MESSAGE: The Bible in Contemporary Language © 2002 by Eugene H. Peterson. All rights reserved.)
21 And in his place shall stand up a contemptible person, to whom they had not given the honor of the kingdom: but he shall come in time of security, and shall obtain the kingdom by flatteries. (Daniel 11:21, ASV)
So, someone who is disgraced is prophesied to rise up and be the final King of the North of Bible prophecy.
Should we count Herr Guttenberg out because of his comments in the interview?
Well, I am hesitant to do so as politicians have long been known to change their minds when crises or opportunities arise.
He rose quickly once and may very well do so again.
And I just read on Drudge that Germany will now be deploying troops since WW2. This has to put Bob into orgasmic euphoria.
ReplyDeleteI had almost forgotten about Franz Joseph Strauss.
ReplyDeleteOh he was the BIG ONE in wwcogs heyday. Stories abounded about him and his future.
I remember when he died……..oh we were wrong………..and life carried on.
And HWA was to lead us to Petra.
And he died……..and life carried on.
I have more confidence in the weather forecast than in the Armstrong movements proclamations, especially about a fairly unknown politician, and an almost totally unknown one, outside of Germany.
Me thinks the USA and company have a completely different future than the one envisioned by Armstrongism, which is still obsessed with BI folly.
Bob naturally respects a leader who recovered from a plagiarism scandal.
ReplyDelete"And I just read on Drudge that Germany will now be deploying troops since WW2. This has to put Bob into orgasmic euphoria."
ReplyDeleteBob's gonna need smelling salts to get him out of this orgasmic euphoria!
1) Franz Josef Strauss is STILL ALIVE and living in Argentina, secreted away by a German submarine, in 1988, with his death being faked. He is doing well at age 108, and will emerge soon with a fake resurrection by the Pope, to dominate Europe.
ReplyDelete2) Thiel can think whatever he likes about GUTTENBERG , but Im glad Gutenberg gave us the printed Bible.
Tonto
ReplyDeleteHow ridiculous.
I saw Herr Strauss working at a McDonald’s last week.
And he wasn’t in Argentina at all. He told me it was just a part time endeavour to raise a few dollars to buy a Xmas ham.
Do you know how damn expensive these hams are today?
He particularly likes pork ends or ‘Hamas’ as some may call it.
Pun intended.
And NO he hasn’t heard of Bob Thiel.
But he is looking good for his age.
Yeah. I seen him with Elvis up in Vegas over the weekend.
ReplyDeleteAlways crying wolf, wolf. What do these people expect?
ReplyDeleteA great deal of what people say HWA said is stuff that he never actually said. With the aid of their "memories" they put a lot of words in his mouth.
ReplyDeleteWell, he was enough of an asshole that even if the memories were wrong a couple times, there is still an abundance of material with which to cancel him.
DeleteActually most of it is documented! You can read all his co worker letters, early PT’s and other stuff, it’s all online
DeleteHa! I was reading this and thinking back to the ridiculousness of Herbert Armstrong when he felt Franz Joseph Strauss would be the Beast or associated with the Beast.
ReplyDeleteI still associate with the COGs on occasion but it gets harder and harder to maintain friendships as questioning any of the many ridiculous COG teachings drives a wedge in the friendship. Of course they can express any of the crazy Armstrongist teachings and all is well, but to even question or soften the position results in the instant fiat of 5 tons of pachyderm in the room.
The prediction that Strauss would return is no more silly than the prediction Jesus would return. How has that panned out?
