In Church of Godland there is no person more ridiculed than our Great Bwana to Africa and the occasional 100 Caucasians, except maybe for Dave Pack. All of this happens despite the fact God dreamed up the Great Bwana as the foundations of the world were being whirled into being so that he could come in the perilous end times to give a warning to the world and save Africa from the tribulation. Sadly, the Great Bwana is only picking up the pieces left over after Wade Cox converted half of the continent including thousands of Muslims to his church. The Great Bwana is always the bridesmaid and never the bride.
Anyway, he is back lecturing us on how he forgives those he perceives as his enemies. For some reason, he thinks we are his enemies, but actually, we are just offering constructive criticism on how to be a better preacher, but for some reason, he fails to listen. Much like he did with Rod Meredith which resulted in him getting kicked out of the Living Church of God for his rebellion.
Mercy: Loving your enemies
On the ‘Sermon on the Mount,’ Jesus taught His followers to love their enemies. Can you do that? Why should you? How can you do that? Should you pray for your enemies and do good to them? Can you forgive someone who is not sorry? How can you show mercy to those who hate you? Is God really fair? Why did God allow Adolf Hitler? Will all reap what we sow according to the Apostle Paul? Can your physical and spiritual health be affected by the root of bitterness? Can a little leaven of bitterness hurt you a lot? Are Christians really supposed to control their thoughts? What are some health problems associated with being unwilling to forgive others? Could any of your enemies actually be above you in the Kingdom of God? Could your enemies actually be blinded by Satan and his demons? Did God call you because you were better than others? Have we all be enemies to God? Did Herbert W. Armstrong teach it was difficult to forgive those who intentionally want to cause us harm? What are some passages in the Bible about love, mercy, judgment, faith, and forgiveness? Are Christians actually supposed to strive to be perfect? Could your enemies, after the age to come, actually help make your eternity better? Dr. Thiel addresses those matters and more in this sermon.
Wow, he didnt even cut out the beginning where he sat down in the chair.
ReplyDeleteThe Great Bwana is certainly not committed to quality.
And at the end he got out of the chair and the empty chair swiveled before the cut. Is an empty swiveling chair........oh never mind.
ReplyDeleteDon't count on Bob to be really 'loving' or 'forgiving' towards you. That is only the public face he tries to portray. He will work overtime behind your back trying to smear you the rest of the time. Just look at what he did with Sasha.
ReplyDelete''Did Herbert W. Armstrong teach it was difficult to forgive those who intentionally want to cause us harm?'' >>>>>> good luck with that one even if he finds a sentence somewhere it means nothing as we know his mode of conduct
ReplyDeleteConstructive criticism? Yeah right.
ReplyDelete"The Great Bwana is certainly not committed to quality."
ReplyDeleteThen there's the crazy unlocalized stereo audio track- a sewer pipe sound effect would have sounded better.
Sometimes I think Bob does this stuff just to jerk our chains...
Heh, I didnt get far enough into it to hear any audio.
DeleteI think Bob should be "patient" with us, as some of us are RILED UP angry for now 🔥 at the sick jokers shown on CourtTV. They are on trial for killing parents, offspring, estranged mates, etc.
ReplyDeleteBob, we KNOW we will forgive those detestable murderers SOMEDAY but for now it hurts when goons MURDER the innocent. We're not even in a "forgiving" frame of mind just yet, for LCG's TERRY RATZMAN. or for UCG's Steven Allwine.
Give us A BREAK for awhile, Bob, we'll get to this forgiving stuff eventually but those goons got us A LITTLE TICKED OFF right now, man.
Bit of a stretch of any truth stating Bob Thiel is the most ridiculed. Vast majority in COG barely know who he is.
ReplyDeleteHe is cannon fodder for the mixed group that are involved in this blog. But no matter the topic of a post the commentators always desire to bring the commentary on to UCG. Strange that.
what if UCG (corporate) brings it onto themself
ReplyDeleteWeak excuse. Why UCG eccentric? I notice mixed group is not denied.
DeleteBecause UCG tried to expand our imagination toward giving Steven Allwine "the benefit of the doubt".
DeleteI fellowshipped with some of them after svcs. & had to endure them still pushing Allwine's "potential innocence" & them strongarming me toward the daft proposal that he may have been "framed". The UCG corporate treated the matter as if it was best to just "move on" & proceed with "next case, please".
Bit obsessed? Fake gaslighting. Disrespectful to friends and family of the murdered victim.
DeleteHer killer/husb. is the one who was disrespectful to her friends & family. But it is not disrespectful to continue posting disgust at what he did, in an effort to make SURE no one FORGETS how vile a man can be under the guise of "church elder".
ReplyDeleteNever forget the holocaust. Never forget how vicious Mr. Allwine was. Or how stupid his church is for still offering him vague avenues of support, or hope, or benefit of doubt, what have you.
Friends & family of the victim will see in the news of similar domestic violence daily. It should all be regularly spoken out against, & made public so that the offenders are removed from sauntering around us freely after their deeds. Or hopefully before the deeds, when they show signs of contacting hitmen like Stevie did.
Steven's guilt was clear during the 911 call, when he chuckled responding "I don't know" to his son when asked if he'd remarry again. The chuckled response was evidence that no elaborate A.I. scheme was used to "frame him".
It all could happen again, but must not, anywhere.
