Herbert Armstrong's Tangled Web of Corrupt Leaders

Dave Pack: "These are things I've been wrestling and wrestling with for years now - consoling myself when I'm frustrated, and I'm up at night.


Eating More Words

David C. Pack of The Restored Church of God must be a secret fan of the exrcg.org website. “The Greatest Unending Story! (Part 493)” on February 17, 2024, was further validation of the reporting here.

The self-assigned apostle has a proven track record of being consistently inconsistent. The occasional Elijah is predictably unreliable as he re-re-re-invented the prophetic wheel after taking another two-week break from accosting the brethren’s Sabbath.

The end of the sermon serves as a proper introduction.

Part 493 – February 17, 2024
@ 2:05:46 We got 51 days. I won't speak every week, but I will next week, and we'll see what God wants for the time that remains. Enjoy your dinner.

Brethren, Pastor General David C. Pack is unavailable to dine with you because he just spent 125 minutes eating his own words.

The Kingdom of God framework is now 4 Years, 100 Years, and 1,000 Years.
Jesus Christ IS the Messenger of the Covenant. Not David C. Pack.

It was no surprise that Dave reset the prophetic table after the standard introduction while tucking a bib under his chin.

@ 00:19 We all know that we can’t have too much longer to go.

@ 00:37 This will be an astounding sermon. Even though we’ll cover just two things that no one ever saw. No one (even through this long Series) ever dreamed that we could come this far …but you really don’t expect either of the two things that I’m gonna tell you now.

The “two things” of Part 493 were that the First Kingdom is now four years instead of one. The Second Kingdom is now one hundred years instead of seven.

The contradiction potluck dining table was piled high with words for Dave to feast upon.


 


@ 24:40 We could wonder, Would God tell us how many years there are in the First Kingdom? And it’s gonna you’re gonna be just stunned at what what those abundant days called “the last days” and “the last years” how long that is. Would He tell us that?

If God were legitimately involved, the human conduit would only need to ask and answer the question once. That faithful servant is not David C. Pack.

@ 25:10 First, I’m gonna show you how long the First Kingdom of God is. It is not seven years. In fact, it’s over seventy.

@ 25:46 So, any idea that there’s a Seven-Year Kingdom from the Day of the Lord is utterly destroyedbecause we’ve got punishment on Tyre for ten times that long.

@ 29:01 So, the idea that there is a Seven-Year Kingdom is as dead'n gone as yesterday. I mean, that’s gone with the wind.

@ 33:24 So, this Kingdom is one hundred years long. If it’s longer, well, then it is, I guess.

So much for proving certainty from the pages of your Bible. The one-hundred-year waffling already comes with its own padding upon installation. That must fill the brethren with bold assurance.

The Seven-Year Kingdom is now "destroyed" and "dead," according to David C. Pack. The man who invented them. He also authored the One-Year Kingdom idea, which does not survive Part 493.

@ 31:03 …in the First Kingdom, which we now know is not one year. It’s not one year. I’m gonna tell ya exactly how long it is. And you’re gonna be shocked. You’re gonna you’re gonna be in awe of what it means to go first. And many, many, many questions you have are gonna just die. They’re gonna go away. They’ll be gone with the wind when we understand these things.

Dave really knows how to run out the clock. Brevity and conciseness are not his strengths. Neither are integrity, trustworthiness, credibility, and legitimacy.

@ 1:11:59 Wow, the saints have to wait four years? Okay. Well, let’s pause. Let’s put that in context. How long have we been waiting? We’ve waited over twice over two times four years through this Series. And there a lot of brethren who said, “I won’t wait.” And so, they kill themselves. So to speak. We’ve had to wait a long time. I’m just talking about the Series.

David C. Pack often repeats that suicidal brethren leave The Restored Church of God because we all grew tired of waiting. We left because David C. Pack is a hypocritical, blaspheming liar and false prophet teaching antichrist theology. Toe-may-toe, toe-mah-toe.

@ 1:57:02 It’s simple. 4-100-1000. Not 1-7-1000. 4-100-1000. Maybe it’s a thousand every time after that. Simple. No Elijahn period other than a man who would be here explaining all of this. There is simplicity in Christ. The picture is easy. It wudden’t easy getting here. It took patience, and we're the people that kept God's patience. But this was always in the Bible.

He suggested Part 493 was part of an Elijahn period after recently denying he was Elijah yet. See. Even David C. Pack does not believe his own words or remember what he just said.

@ 1:58:05 …but we made it even simpler. Wouldn’t be hard to change our literature if we had to go on, which we won’t.

The literature is wrong, but he will not fix it. Edward L. Winkfield III just breathed a big sigh of relief.



 


Let us not miss this precious gem of reverse blasphemy in 3…2…1…

@ 1:45:00 Yes, Christ is the Messenger of the Covenant. Not any man. I now understand that, in a way, I never did. I apologize for that. Trying to be faithful to what it said.

It was an honest mistake, folks. Dave was trying to be faithful to what he believed in the moment because of reasons. As if that makes it all okay.

What an excellent excuse to store in your lunchbox for each time you accidentally commandeer a title belonging to the Son of God. I suppose all is forgiven on this, and we can just move along. 

 




After I resigned from The Restored Church of God in March 2021, I did not listen to a single message until the spring of 2022, so my records are spotty around then. The plan of God alphabet soup changed so many times it is hard to find where it all began.

Spotting through the archives, I found glassware and labels on the Tammuz Cooking Table for a 3.5-11-2,580 Kingdom plan during Part 376 on June 13, 2022. The debut of 1-1-7 appeared on April 10, 2023, during Part 434, even though the Seven-Year Kingdom was established long before that.

Flashback Part 373 – June 7, 2022
@ 1:27:03 Because I know when it starts. And I know it ends at the end of the month, or you don't have two evenly-halved parts of a big kingdom, Seven-Year Kingdom. It's perfect. Can't be argued with.

These are merely an appetizer of the words David C. Pack ate during Part 493.

Flashback Part 432 – April 1, 2023
@ 19:53 Could the plan of God be so simple that there’s seven days before seven years?

Why does an unordained non-prophet/non-psychic care more about the “immovable” words of the Pastor General of The Restored Church of God than the people still paying tithes to that spiritually corrupt organization?

To be fair to Dave, most of these words were already partially eaten. But now that the "firmly established and utterly proven beyond all doubt" One-Year Kingdom and Seven-Year Kingdom have been replaced with a Four-Year Kingdom followed by a One Hundred-Year Kingdom, they are more ripe for consumption.

Eat up, Dave.

Flashback Part 434 – April 10, 2023
@ 00:02 Well, much (maybe most) of everything we’ve learned and heard has been correct. But, it was lacking a year in front of it.

Flashback Part 443 – May 18, 2023
@ 1:51:55 …’cause you cannot change 1-1-7 and 1000. You can’t do it.

Flashback Part 444 – May 20, 2023
@ 04:32 But, lemme just tell you, just for the record, you know, 1-1-7 and 1 iddn’t gonna change. It can’t change. We should be settled on that.

@ 29:41 I knew I had the month right. I knew I had 1-1-7 and 1000 right.

Flashback Part 447 – June 6, 2023
@ 1:56:16 10-1-7-1000 is immutable. I will die on that hill. That’s the hill I die on.

Flashback Part 448, Part 1 – June 11, 2023
@ 58:07 1-1-7-1000. You can book it. Don’t ever never be challenged again.

Flashback Part 458 – July 8, 2023
@ 1:27:52 I just wanna say to the church, if this is wrong, I’m not there, no way that's wrong. You've got Bibles. 1-7-1000's not wrong.

Flashback Part 468 – September 9, 2023
@ 1:26:01 The problem is it's full, complete, and right. But, I'm just saying, if you had another year, you'd sit and think, “What did we get wrong?” That’s awfully simple. 1-7-1000.

Flashback Part 470 – September 23, 2023
@ 23:58 I want to just absolutely destroy all idea that this year does not sit exactly from one Feast of Tabernacles…to the start of the next Feast of Tabernacles. As surely as 1-2-3 Kingdoms or 1-7-1000…

Flashback Part 487 – December 23, 2023
@ 1:13:19 I’m just gonna tell you absolutely on God’s authority (I’ll tell ya this much), and I’ll tell you abso–I mean, just I I I will stand on this on this date: The Kingdom of God comes Abib 1.

The Whoopsie Daisy with Part 487 is that when Dave believed the First Kingdom was one year long, he was referring to Abib 1 on March 30, 2025. Gobble gobble.

Flashback Part 489 – January 6, 2024
@ 35:48 But, we do know, and this is impossible to argue. This is impossible to argue because it's literally going forward. It's the the we know that the next one thousand and seven years all begin with a season. The seven years and a thousand absolutely, immutably impossible to argue those begin on the first night of Passover.

The Passover was previously de-clarified, but the Seven-Year Kingdom has been expanded into one hundred.

Flashback Part 490 – January 13, 2024
@ 30:14 These are things I've been wrestling and wrestling and wrestling and wrestling with for years now. And, you know, consoling myself when I'm frustrated, and I'm up at night. Often, Sabbaths for me end around two to three in the morning because I’m thinking about all the things that I covered and other things. 

Dave thought he reached the end of the tunnel of his self-consoling. Being up late at night in January proved to be just as pointless as the sleep-deprived nights of today. The prophetic picture in The Restored Church of God will never settle because David C. Pack will never be right.

His own words tell that endless story.

@ 1:43:33 …and watch everything get cleared up. So, that’s pretty obvious that we’re right on track…

Part 493 proved that to be completely false. Nom. Nom. Nom. Down the gullet, Dave.

Flashback Part 491 – January 20, 2024
@ 1:45:40 But, this is vastly more than anybody else has ever understood. I’m honored to just be able to finally see things coming together.

A fraudulent honor bestowed upon a fraudulent man.

The “things” that finally came together were changed entirely. Even Dave's declarations during Part 492 now ring hollow and foolhardy. More futile time is spent dreaming up ideas that he later denies.

Flashback Part 492 – February 3, 2024
@ 56:22 So, I want you to be clear on [chuckles]. I mean, I’ve spent hundreds of hours trying to figure this out.

Hundreds and thousands of wasted hours. And yet, David C. Pack persists because the alternative is too horrifying to consider. He cannot rest in place because the passage of time proves him false every time.

And still, the cowardly hireling enablers at Headquarters are too weak to do anything about it. Yeah, Brad, I'm looking right at you. You know what Dave is, and you choose to do nothing about it, even though I know you could.

In some ways, even Ryan Denee is better than you. At least, Ryan is naturally spineless, lacking the mental capacity to man up and take a stand for what he knows should be done. His excuse of being a slouching pushover is far more understandable.

 


David C. Pack is a builder and a destroyer of his own theories.

He defecates perverted words upon the brethren and laps them up later before an adoring audience. It is a vile, disgusting cycle that will never be voluntarily broken.

Part 493 – February 17, 2024
@ 1:24:51 So, all of this makes sense. Nobody's ever understood it. Nobody's ever understood it.

Stuffing his face without shame, the man demonstrates his insatiable appetite. He gorges on entire Parts in a single sitting without stopping to use the restroom. In easy. Out easy. Eat, eat, eat.

When there are no consequences and no accountability, that type of theological binging and purging becomes normalized and accepted. The brethren of The Restored Church of God are witnessing a religious eating disorder run amok and enable it by choosing to dine beside him.

Even a wolf can burst if it overeats. How much more can David C. Pack eat?

CGI Medina Didn’t Like the Jesus Super Bowl Ad Either


 

Surprise, Surprise, CGI Medina Didn’t Like the Jesus Super Bowl Ad Either!

Lonnie Hendrix

The February 24 Sabbath service in Medina, Ohio echoed the disgust of their Canadian brethren with the “He Gets Us” Super Bowl Ad which featured antagonists washing each other’s feet. Medina member Jeff Flanick delivered the broadside against the commercial. Predictably, he insisted that the ad was not Bible-based, and that it presented a “nicey, nicey” Jesus. Flanick said that the ad doesn’t get folks interested in the “right” Jesus, and it looks at Christ through a “progressive/social justice” lens – portraying a Jesus that is too inclusive!

Indeed, as I listened to the ad, I began to understand the fierce reaction of these men to this sixty second Super Bowl commercial. In short, they perceive the ad as the embodiment of “false” Christianity – that it represents all of the things that they find so objectionable about traditional Christianity. Mr. Flanick didn’t like the non-denominational bent of the advertisement. He even quoted the Armstrong standard proof-text of John 6:44 to demonstrate that “God is NOT trying to save the world now.” Flanick went on to insist that Matthew 15:22 dealt a “fatal blow” to passive inclusivity. In other words, for these CGI members, the commercial is an assault on their view of themselves as God’s chosen people – the only “true” Christians. For them, those other folks are presenting a “false” Jesus and are NOT “real” Christians.

They ignore, of course, that favorite passage of more traditional Christians: “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him.” (John 3:16-17, ESV) For Jeff and his associates, traditional Christians have interpreted this statement by Jesus too literally. From their perspective, truly believing in Jesus is a much more labor intensive exercise than simply accepting the fact that Jesus was the Messiah/Savior promised in the Old Testament. They ignore that Jesus pointed to himself as “the way, and the truth, and the life.” (John 14:6, ESV) For them, their little unique package of doctrines is “the truth.”

For Mr. Flanick, the “He Gets Us” ad presented things like abortion, illegal immigration, homosexuality, and transgenderism in a positive light. For him, the ad portrayed righteous folks bowing down to sinners and washing them (their feet) while they are still in a fallen state. Once again, Mr. Flanick rejects the traditional understanding that Jesus kept company with sinners, and that he came here to minister to those who were in the grips of sin. According to him, most Christians do NOT understand passages like Matthew 9:10-13. That Jesus was only around those folks to insist that they repent and start keeping the Law. Of course, to arrive at this conclusion, he has to ignore Paul’s words to the believers at Rome: “For while we were still weak, at the right time Christ died for the ungodly. For one will scarcely die for a righteous person—though perhaps for a good person one would dare even to die— but God shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.” (Romans 5:6-8, ESV) They simply do not get that God’s love intervenes where we are – immersed in sin!

More particularly, Jeff didn’t like some of the images portrayed in the advertisement. He didn’t like the woman getting her feet washed in front of a Planned Parenthood Clinic. He also didn’t like the woman in a hijab having her feet washed. Likewise, he didn’t like the “amorphous” gay/transgender person having his/her feet washed. Mr. Flanick would have preferred seeing those people portrayed as repenting of their sins. He wants to see folks conforming to Christ. He doesn’t like seeing Christians serve and accept sinners where they are – none of that reaching out to those fallen folks! Indeed, when he dealt with the story of the woman taken in adultery about to be stoned (see John 8:1-11), Jeff focused on Christ’s instructions to her to “go, and from now on sin no more.” Predictably, he barely mentioned that her accusers had been forced to drop their stones, and that Christ had told her “Neither do I condemn you.”

Of course, this is all consistent with the Armstrong Church of God view that Christians are obligated to observe/keep some of the precepts in Torah/Law of Moses. In support of that view, he quoted the traditional Armstrongism proof-texts about Jesus not coming to destroy the Law or the Prophets, but to fulfill them (Matthew 5:19-18). For Jeff, there is no “New” Testament or Covenant. In his view, Christ simply “repaired” or “renewed” the covenant which was already in existence. Moreover, because of their rejection of the Trinity, Jeff insisted that Jesus was the source of Torah/Law, NOT God the Father. In effect, Christ is implementing his own will, not the will of his Father. Once again, there is no recognition of Christ’s summary and condensation of the Law into two Great commandments for his followers (Matthew 22:34-40). There is no recognition of Paul’s insistence that love fulfills the requirements of the Law (Romans 13:8-14).

Jeff then returned to one of CGI’s favorite themes – bashing gay people. To demonstrate his point about sinners, he recalled how his former church (United Church of Christ) had ordained a gay person in clear violation of God’s standards. Unfortunately, CGI itself seems to ignore Paul’s instruction to Timothy that Church leaders must be the husband of ONE wife and manage his own household well (see I Timothy 3:2-5). No awareness or recognition of removing the beam from your own eye before trying to remove the speck from your brother’s eye (Matthew 7:3-5). Without compunction, however, Mr. Flanick went on to quote some of the “clobber” passages which have been used to condemn homosexuals.

Interestingly, Mr. Flanick did reference (in passing) two of the passages which challenge Armstrongism’s theology about a Christian’s obligation to observe Torah. For example, he mentioned James 2:10, but I prefer to quote the entire passage: “If you really fulfill the royal law according to the Scripture, ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself,’ you are doing well. But if you show partiality, you are committing sin and are convicted by the law as transgressors. For whoever keeps the whole law but fails in one point has become guilty of all of it. For he who said, ‘Do not commit adultery,’ also said, ‘Do not murder.’ If you do not commit adultery but do murder, you have become a transgressor of the law. So speak and so act as those who are to be judged under the law of liberty. For judgment is without mercy to one who has shown no mercy. Mercy triumphs over judgment.” (James 2:8-13, ESV) Likewise, he referenced Romans 3:23. Once again, however, I prefer to quote the entire passage: “But now the righteousness of God has been manifested apart from the law, although the Law and the Prophets bear witness to it— the righteousness of God through faith in Jesus Christ for all who believe. For there is no distinction: for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and are justified by his grace as a gift, through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus, whom God put forward as a propitiation by his blood, to be received by faith. This was to show God's righteousness, because in his divine forbearance he had passed over former sins. It was to show his righteousness at the present time, so that he might be just and the justifier of the one who has faith in Jesus.” (Romans 3:21-26, ESV)

Mr. Flanick sees no irony or hypocrisy inherent in referencing these passages to prove his point. There is no awareness or recognition of the fact that the Armstrong Churches of God have ignored or modified numerous commandments of Torah. For him, grace is a thing that covers past sins. In speaking of believers, John said: “If we say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. If we say we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.” (I John 1:8-10, ESV) Sorry, Jeff. I still like the ad and its message: Jesus does get us, and that’s important. Because he gets us, he was able to offer himself as a sacrifice for our sins and help us when we are tempted to sin (Hebrews 2:14-18). All we have to do is ask!

Satan Continues His Attack On The Greatest COG In Human History!

 

 This intense persecution is ramping up by Satan 
on God's most highly favored COG leader 
to ever walk this earth.

No one has ever been persecuted as much as the Great Bwana Bob Mzungu Thiel.

Satan's Wrath Was Stirred Up In Petra September 2022 Causing Him To Soon Prohibit Loyal COG Members From Using Internet

 


Little did we know how significant it was in September of 2022 when Samuel Kitchen told Worldwide Church of God members to gather in Jerusalem for the Feast of Tabernacles. Upon arrival in September, they found out that they had been scammed and the money they had dished out for the accommodations would not be returned, they had no accommodations waiting for them to use. Then, fearing for their safety they headed down to Petra, the Place of Safety, where all good Church of God members know to go to.

SEPTEMBER 21, 2022 I declared in Jerusalem THE WORLDWIDE CHURCH OF GOD EXISTS and was keeping the Feasts of the Lord in Jerusalem. Instead, God brought us to PETRA and placed His name there because it was TOO DANGEROUS in Jerusalem.
The Standard was published and declared.
It was a call for the membership of the Worldwide Church of God to ASSEMBLE in Jerusalem.

While things were certainly a little better there, it did not go well and relationships and family were broken. The return home was disheartening. 

Having had many months now to reflect upon this traumatic defeat, this is what he now says. Of course, in typical COG fashion, it is the fault of all COG members in the various splinter groups that refuse to heed this call.

THIS WARNING MESSAGE IS PRIOR TO THE GREAT TRIBULATION! The response from these C.O.G groups, is WHY WOULD GOD DO THESE THINGS UNTO US?
Because you have FORSAKE GOD and served strange gods in your land, and SO SHALL YOU SERVE STRANGERS in a land that is NOT yours.
That is future tense! So the warning message is warning of a future DOOM soon to be on these C.O.G groups.
A WAR waged by the Lion which is SATAN THE DEVIL! (Rev. 12:17)
Jeremiah 5:20
"Declare this in the house of Jacob, and publish it in Judah, saying,"
The house of Jacob is AMERICA AND BRITAIN! It was published by me in Judah, in Jerusalem, September 21, 2022! How God is sending destruction.

All of the Middle East events, attacks, October 7, and troubles between Russia/Ukraine and the rest of the world are now a result of the not heeding this call to gather.

God says those this message was sent to, DO NOT FEAR HIM!
Jeremiah 5:22
"Fear ye not me? saith the Lord: will ye not tremble at my presence, which have placed the sand for the bound of the sea by a perpetual decree, that it cannot pass it: and though the waves thereof toss themselves, yet can they not prevail; though they roar, yet can they not pass over it?"
This exposes those who are NOT of the Philadelphia era, and who WILL NOT RECEIVE protection promised by Christ to the Worldwide Church of God!

Just like the Great Bwana Bob Thiel, those who don't heed the call and join the one true faith, are doomed to suffer mightly for that misdeed. 

Samuel continues:

The Worldwide Church of God came to Jerusalem, as an ENSIGN.
Was that in 2022? Because when it was too dangerous in Jerusalem, we then was forced to go to Petra, and keep the Feasts of the Lord THERE, so it was obvious that God placed His name in Petra!
Jeremiah 6:1 is what we read when we arrived in Petra.
"O ye children of Benjamin, gather yourselves to flee out of the midst of Jerusalem, and blow the trumpet in Tekoa, and set up a sign of fire in Bethhaccerem: for evil appeareth out of the north, and great destruction."
Jeremiah 6:2
"I have likened the daughter of Zion to a comely and delicate woman."
The Worldwide Church of God.
As a result of God's people assembling in Jerusalem, and the setting up of the Two Witnesses, Armies will surround Jerusalem. That's what all thee scriptures say.
As a result, the Church flees to the place of safety.
But the center of being there in Jerusalem, is to ESTABLISH THE TWO WITNESSES! Those who respond to the WARNING MESSAGE today, will be there.

Jerusalem is going to be a busy place for COG witless witnesses. Ron Weinland and his dingy wife Laura will be there as the two witless witnesses. Dave Pack is assured to be there along with some other dude. Herald Flurry and Alton Billingsley think they will be there. Bob Thiel believes the two witless ones will emerge out of his group. Herbert Armstrong and Garner Ted were supposed to be resurrected to perform miracles. This doesn't even include the witless witnesses that various Christian and Jewish groups imagine will also be there. What a shitstorm it will be!

On top of that, Kitchen says that ALL Church of God splinter groups. are HARLOTS and WILL be destroyed!

The Worldwide Church of God is EXITING this BABYLON, and withdrawing from those who are playing the harlot, by creating a "daughter of Babylon" THESE C.O.G groups. They will be destroyed by Babylon in Satan's wrath. A MARTYRDOM.
Those who repent and come out of her, will be spared for they fear God!
But in Jerusalem you will hear "The voice of them that flee and escape out of the land of Babylon, to declare in Zion the vengeance of the Lord our God, the vengeance of his temple."
People mock and laugh me to scorn, but this is SURE TO HAPPEN.

Sounds like Bwana Bob Thiel is rubbing off on Samuel. 

Church of God grups are now encouraged to rapidly repent and jointhe one true CHurch of God, the Wordlwide CHurch of God - a spiritual organism. Heed the call to assemble in Jeersualm thi year becasue the United States of Europe is risingup and will soon be invading the Armstrongite Bristiash Israelite countries totake citizens captive, slaughter others and set up concentrain camps. 

October 2022 set all of this in motion and world events are swirling around us in frightening scenarios.

Brethren, what was declared and published in Jerusalem, in Judah September 2022?
A call for the Worldwide Church of God to assemble.
The standard has been set towards Zion! Now in September 2022, we didn't stay there in Jerusalem.
"retire, stay not" God said! God was stirring up Europe towards Jerusalem.
Now what is next? "The lion is come up from his thicket, and the destroyer of the Gentiles is on his way; he is gone forth from his place to make thy land desolate; and thy cities shall be laid waste, without an inhabitant."
This is THE BEAST POWER.
When the United States of Europe rises up, this BEAST will go to America and British Commonwealth nations, to wage war.

This rising Beast will directly hone in on Samuel Kitchen, his websites, and the few who gather with him as the restored Worldwide CHurch of God. 

You need to heed the call right now so you cango to Petra and be traiend by Ron Weinland and Bob Thiel. Can you imagine?

First, this beast power will stop THIS WORK(Worldwide Church of God under Herbert W. Armstrong). That means shutting down THE WARNING MESSAGE.
After leaving Jerusalem, in 2022, World Events KICKED UP A NOTCH.
War broke out in the middle east, and God says the responsible party, this "evil", comes from north of Jerusalem, from Europe.
Now in Petra, Satan was doing his very best to destroy me.
But God through many miracles delivered me out of them, and those of us who gathered, returned to our homelands.
There are sword rattling from Russia and China now.
But God says Europe is uniting, and going to go to America, and the British Commonwealth nations(modern Jacob), to destroy our lands.
Why? Because we announced in Jerusalem, but returned home!
We wasn't in the middle east any longer!
So what does a PREDATOR do? He tracks his prey and readies himself to DESTROY HIS PREY!

Satanis ANGRY, and I mean ANGRY!!!!!!  Satan is royally pissed, along with Samuel that there are various COG-related internet sites that preserve Herbert Armstrong's works. His bitterness at those sites has consumed him.

What has been happening since 2022? the restoration of the Worldwide Church of God, and warning people of departing from God. People are fighting me left and right, all upset because they want to OWN what they have taken from the Worldwide Church of God.
Every demon, and his house, is raging and foaming, saying "It's mine! It's mine!"
No, It's God's.
So when the work of God is shut down, they will shut down the internet, or at least STOP the true people of God from using the internet.
Those who are outside of the Worldwide Church of God, are going to find themselves in great trouble. They want to play both sides. They can't be a harlot and the fiance bride of Christ at the same time.
God says their lovers will destroy them.
The next step after our work is shut down, is the Great Tribulation, and Europe INVADING these lands via the United States of Europe.
Once that happens, go to Jerusalem.

Former WCG Member Becomes First Black Woman Appointed As A Cantor

 

Jenni Asher expects to graduate from the
Academy for Jewish Religion California next spring. (Photo/Arjun Ramesh)



"As a student at London’s Royal Academy of Music in the late 2000s, Jenni Asher lived across the street from the city’s Central Synagogue. She was not Jewish at the time, but she was feeling angst over the direction that her spiritual home, the Worldwide Church of God, was headed. So after church services, which were held on Saturdays, she sat in on Shabbat services at the grand Orthodox shul.

“It was really quite the introduction to Judaism, looking back at it,” she told J. in an interview this month. “I started learning Hebrew there.” 
 
Today, the accomplished violinist is a cantorial soloist and a student at the non-denominational Academy for Jewish Religion California (AJRCA) in Los Angeles. When she graduates next year, she will become the first Black American woman ordained as a cantor — and one of only two Black cantors in the country, according to the other one, Cantor David Fair."


"Asher grew up in Pasadena in a religiously devout and music-loving family. Her mother took her to the symphony at age 4 and asked her which instrument she wanted to play. She chose the violin. Her father, a singer, played all kinds of music in their home. 
 
“My dad instilled a love of jazz in me and exposed me to a whole bunch of music I wouldn’t have otherwise heard,” she said."


"As members of the Worldwide Church of God, which was later renamed Grace Communion International, Asher and her family observed the Sabbath on Saturday, avoided pork and shellfish and celebrated versions of Jewish holidays. 
 
“I was brought up to think that I understood the Torah,” she said. “We appreciated the Jews because they could speak Hebrew and read the Bible in the original language.” 
 
She eventually came to realize how much she didn’t know and decided to convert through American Jewish University. She converted again in the Sephardic Orthodox tradition in order to be able to fully participate at the synagogues favored by her husband, who has Egyptian Jewish and Mexican heritage."

Crackpot Prophet Says: "All Churches of God's are NOT alike or close enough to for a Philadelphian Christian to be a supporter of" But, mine is...ROTFLMAO!!!!!!!


 

The sun is shining gloriously in California right now after many days of storms, tornadoes, and blizzard conditions. Yet, in the Five Cities area of California, someone is NOT happy and is continuing to be his little bitchy self.

The Great Bwana to Africa and the occasional 100 Caucasians sent out his weekly letter to his faithful in Africa expounding upon how incredibly superfantabulous his little group is. It really frosts his delicate homeopathic butt that all the Church of God groups REFUSE to follow him and/or give him money. 

Even though God himself dreamed him up as the foundations of the world were being swirled into being during the Big Bang, the Great Bwana Bob Mzungu Thiel has been widely cast aside as irrelevant and silly by those in the COG and the world around him.

That bitterness boils over everyone in a while when he says silly stuff like this:

Sadly, we see that the Bible prophesies that most true Christians in the end times will NOT follow proper biblical church governance (Revelation 3:14-19). Because of that, most real end time Christians have major misunderstandings of end time prophecies. Those who will not repent to be Philadelphian Christians are not promised to be protected from the coming “hour of trial” that Jesus promised He would give the Philadelphian Christians protection from (Revelation 3:7-13). 
 
All Churches of God (COGs) are NOT alike or close enough to for a Philadelphian Christian to be a supporter of.

Consider also, that unless they got the restored truth from, or after it was announced by, the Continuing Church of God, the other COGs do not know why God created anything nor what God’s purpose for each individual be in His kingdom. According to Jesus, truth was to be restored before He returned (Matthew 17:11).

Pinocchio himself never told as many lies as the Great Bwana Bob Mzungu Thiel does.

Be On Guard Brethren! Satan Now Impersonating Bob Thiel On Facebook!!! The End Time Persecution Intensifies!


 

I guess we should have seen this coming, especially since God removed his favor from the home office of the improperly named "continuing" Church of God the other day when Satan was allowed to destroy the office roof and cause rain leaks.

Now Satan is impersonating God's greatest gift to the world since Jesus walked this earth. The Great Bwana Bob Mzungu Theil is being impersonated on Facebook. Oh, what shall we do?????

As reported before, I received several messages from contacts on Facebook who suspected that friend requests that they received which supposedly came from me in December 2023.

While I normally receive Facebook friend requests multiple times per week, I have not sent out any Facebook friend requests myself to anyone for over a decade. Generally speaking, I try to avoid Facebook, and only try to be to it the minimum time possible-which I sometimes need to do for some church matters.

Well, now someone is pretending to be me again on Facebook and is associated with an orphanage ministry in Kenya.

When I learned this connection on today, I sent the orphanage ministry the following message on its contact form:

Someone is sending out fake Facebook posts supposedly from me, Bob Thiel, with a link to your ministry. If you are doing this, please cease and desist. If it is not you, but you know of someone doing this, please tell them to stop bearing false witness.

Well, Great Bwana Bob Mzungu...if you piss off the witch doctors, trouble brews...Just say'in. 

Although we in the CCOG do support numerous orphans (consistent with James 1:27), this Facebook push to the one promoted was not from me. Now, one easy way anyone can prove that this is not me is if one clicks on the link in the post, one ends up at the page of that orphanage ministry, which has numerous crosses.

Notice how the Great Bwana says he supports orphans, not orphanages. He supports orphans only IF and ONLY IF they are part of the improperly named "continuing" Church of God. God forbid if he actually supported orphanages in Africa like Bill Goff does.

Then the Great Bwana shows how disgusting and dismissive he really is! Crosses really frost his delicate butt. How appalling that someone used a cross alongside his name.

Since I and those truly in the Churches of God do not use crosses as a religious symbol, that will show anyone with that knowledge that this was not me.

As many of you are aware, we have warned about the emergence of deepfakes for some time now. Back in 2021, the Continuing Church of God (CCOG) even put out a related video on our Bible News Prophecy YouTube channel: Lies and Deepfakes. (hyperlinks deliberately removed)

Last March, I was presented with what I considered to be a “deepfake” computer-conversation related to another CCOG leader (Evans Ochieng) that I was able to determine could not have happened as it was presented to myself and others. Sadly, however, some preferred to believe that lie.

The Bible warns against:

15 … idolaters, and whoever loves and practices a lie. (Revelation 22:15)

Jesus once said to some near Him:

44 You are of your father the devil, and the desires of your father you want to do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks from his own resources, for he is a liar and the father of it.  (John 8:44-45)

Whoever is pretending to be me has the devil as his/her father.

Oh, Great Bwana Bob Mzungu, even Satan doesn't have the time to waste worrying about you. Like the rest of the Churches of God, he has better things to do than worry about you. 

Many use a variety of techniques to try to deceive.

The Apostle Paul warned:

1 But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come: … 13 … evil men and impostors will grow worse and worse, deceiving and being deceived. (2 Timothy 3:1,13)

Yes, the emergence of various fakes is a sign of the last days.

It is sad that some wish to try to deceive others that way and other ways.

The Apostle Paul also warned end-time Christians, “not to be soon shaken in mind or troubled, either by spirit or by word or by letter, as if from us, … Let no one deceive you by any means” (2 Thessalonians 2:2,3).

That includes trying not to be deceived by “deepfakes and phony computer requests.”

Yes brethren, I believe that deepfakes will get worse consistent with the prophecies in 2 Timothy 3:13 and 2 Thessalonians 2.

Be on guard.

One very important lesson we have all learned about the Great Bwana Bob Mzungu. Life is tough being the world's greatest prophet!

Church of God International Canada Despises Super Bowl Jesus Ad




Canadian CGI Ministers Attack the Super Bowl "He Gets Us" Advertisement!


In Episode 71 of Keeping Watch (on the Rumble platform), two ministers and one deacon from the Canadian Church of God International attacked the Jesus Super Bowl ad on their weekly program. Pastors Adrian Davis and Murray Palmatier, accompanied by Deacon Jan Kowalczyk, said that the ad which depicted people washing the feet of sinners was heretical and should be rejected by true Christians. What was wrong with the ad? They didn't like the message: "Jesus didn't teach hate. He washed feet. He gets us. All of Us. Love thy neighbor."

Mr. Palmatier and Mr. Davis said that there were too many doctrinal errors to list in the thirty second ad, and they cautioned CGI members not to get caught up in the "emotionalism" of the ad! "What about us getting him?" Pastor Murray demanded. "How many times did Christ wash feet in the Bible?" he continued. "And whose feet did he wash?" Pastor Davis added. The answers, of course, are: one occasion, and he washed the feet of his disciples. "In every other case, it was his feet being washed by devotees," Pastor Palmatier pointed out. They went on to remind their audience that this ad appeared during the "Taylor Swift Super Bowl." In other words, the audience was huge - men and women watching. "These people hate Christ," Pastor Davis added, and he went on to say that the ad was full of "Marxist" ideas.

For me, the ad reflected the "Love thy neighbor" theme very clearly. When I was watching it, I was reminded of Christ's statement that he came here to serve, NOT to be served (Matthew 20:28 and Mark 10:45). Indeed, Christ's aim was to sacrifice himself so that our sins could be wiped away, and we could be reconciled to Almighty God. I also thought of a passage from the first epistle of John: "Beloved, let us love one another, for love is from God, and whoever loves has been born of God and knows God. Anyone who does not love does not know God, because God is love. In this the love of God was made manifest among us, that God sent his only Son into the world, so that we might live through him. In this is love, not that we have loved God but that he loved us and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins. Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another. No one has ever seen God; if we love one another, God abides in us and his love is perfected in us." (I John 4:7-12, ESV). So, I'm thinking that it's Davis, Palmatier, and Kowalczyk who don't get Jesus and are promulgating heretical notions. The truth is that Armstrongites have always been uncomfortable with the concept of LOVE!

Crackpot Prophet Says Just Because All The Other COG False Prophets Are Wrong Does Not Mean You Can Ignore Me

 

All of the static electricity in the air with the recent thunderstorms and rain we have been having in California seems to have fried the brain of our most illustrious, self-appointed, doubly blessed, world-renowned authority on everything, the Great Bwana to Africa and the occasional 100 Caucasians. He is back today blessing us with his pithy comments.

After reading the things I posted about Alton Billingsley HERE on this blog, he decided to quote the exact same things I did, then added more comments about other self-appointed false prophets, both in the Church of God and in the pagan, heathen, unconverted, world.

As usual, his main go-to source for information is WorldNetDaily, a favorite of some of the prophecy addicts in the Church of God movement.

The Great Bwana Bob Mzungu writes:

Though World Net Daily often has items of interest, it has a history of promoting false prophets.

WTH???? Seriously dude, take a look at Armstrongism and its hundreds and hundreds of splinter groups and the certified liars that fill its ranks, from now-deceased so-called evangelists, ministers, and other prophecy addicts masquerading as loyal mouthpieces of God to today's raving lunatics! Considering your history of lies it is pretty hypocritical to accuse others outside of Armstrongism or in the church of being false prophets considering your abysmal record! 

Earlier this week, it pushed Jonathan Cahn again. Cahn is a Messianic Jew who has repeatedly been wrong about blood moons, Shemitah years, and other matters (e.g. ‘Warning Signs of America’s Destruction – Jonathan Cahn’).

Now, World Net Daily is calling a Protestant minister, who I have denounced here multiple times, Mark Biltz a biblical expert:

Biblical expert: Solar eclipse to mark ‘beginning of judgment upon America’

April’s total darkness will be ‘a uniquely powerful sign from God,’ says author-pastor

February 19, 2024

ISRAEL – An unusual total solar eclipse that will traverse North America in April has some biblical experts pointing to a deeper significance of the event, especially in light of today’s extremely unsettled times.

With a deep understanding of classical Jewish and Christian sources, Pastor Mark Biltz of El Shaddai Ministries is sharing his insights into the upcoming solar eclipse that will take place on Monday, April 8, 2024. …

“From a biblical point of view, a solar eclipse is meant to be a sign from God,” said Biltz, …

“If you refer to NASA’s data, there’s been a total of 12,000 total solar eclipses all over the world listed over a 5,000-year time period,” said Biltz. …

Pastor Biltz was puzzled by the appearance of four blood moons in 2014-2015. If the celestial events were signs, what did the blood moons signify? In an epiphany, he realized that the celestial signs were part of a much larger cycle based in the Hebrew calendar. The Hebrew year that began on Rosh Hashanah in September 2014 marked the beginning of a seven-year Shemitah (sabbatical) cycle.

“This is not a random seven-year cycle,” Biltz emphasized. “Rosh Hashanah in 2014 marked the beginning of the Hebrew year 5775. The Shemittah years all go back to Creation. If you divide 5775 by 7, it is precisely 825. September 2014, or, more accurately, the first of Tishrei 5775, was the 825th Shemittah cycle since God created the world.”

After connecting the blood moons to the Shemitah cycle, Biltz realized they had prophetic significance: They came as a sign to herald war. …

According to the world's most PERFECT  'christian', Mark Blitz is a Protestant and as everyone in Armstrongism knows about Protestants. he is NOT a real Church of God Christian.

Both Mark Biltz, Jonathan Cahn, and WND’s founder Joseph Farah consider themselves to be ‘Messianic Jews.’ While this means that they will avoid biblically unclean meats, keep the Sabbath, observe the biblical holy days, and hold to parts of a few Church of God doctrines, the Messianics are NOT Church of God Christians. Like the Seventh-day Adventists, they are basically a type of Protestant.

The Great Bwana Mzungu of Africa and the occasional 100 Caucasians then moves on to Alton Billingsley. 

Now, there are also COG-associated leaders who make wrong predictions. Church of God Faithful Flock’s Don Billingsley was promoting nonsense like Hillary Clinton would be president now, that Donald Trump would remain in office, and other such nonsense.

He is also wrong about many other things. Notice something he wrote in a post:

The Ezekiel WATCHMAN
 
“Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful Day of the LORD!” 
 
Malachi 4:5; Matthew 17:10-11
 
Alton B. (Don) Billingsley
 
The Immanency of the Coming of Jesus Christ …:
In view of Prophetic Biblical teachings, connected with major disastrous events, now occurring, and projected to worsen on a national and international scale over the next few years, strongly implies Jesus Christ will be standing on this earth in the year-2029. …
They also make known this nation is in mortal danger of being destroyed, as a nation, along with Britain, and other nations of Israel, in the year 2026 … Prophesied to be destroyed by a super-power far greater than America. 
Though it has not yet appeared, it is prophesied to be fully developed by the year-2024https://www.cog-ff.com/ezekiel.html accessed 02/20/24

No, none of that is right. 2029 is simply too early for Jesus to be able to return by then.

Because there are many false and heretical leaders that lead people astray on prophecy and sometimes they mention the Bible to try to act like God sanctions their nonsense, they should be denounced as false.

Pot calling the kettle black, again! The hypocrisy of the Great Bwana knows no ends. 

While that has been appropriate for those I have denounced, sadly most end time Christians have been self-satisfied and/or relied on the dismissal of others to overlook what God’s word says God would be doing at this time related to prophets.

Oh my! Apparently, all COG members have relied upon the Great Bwana Bob Mzungu to tell them who and who are not real prophets in the church and are now befuddled as to who is right! I guess they have thrown Bob out of the door along with all the other COG lying false prophets. Such a tragedy!

To counter this shocking trend, the Great Bwana Bob Mzungu has to trot of Norm Edwards as some kind of authority on prophets in the Church of God. Seriously dude, Edwards was already being discredited as a whack job BEFORE the Worldwide Church of God ever broke up. Norm is just like you in that you both set yourselves up as authorities on subjects you know very little about.

Norman Edwards, a former employee of the old WCG and later a former board member of the old Global Church of God, wrote the following:

There are over 40 separate passages about prophets and their prophecies in the New Testament—so many that one might easily get tired of reading them! … If we want God to show us what will happen in the future, we need to “desire earnestly to prophesy” (1 Cor 14:39). It is a New Testament teaching we must not ignore! …

Do people today have faith that God is able to prophecy through people …?

1Jo 4:1-2 Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits, whether they are of God; because many false prophets have gone out into the world. By this you know the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is of God,

Note: If there were no true prophets, there would be no need to “test the spirits”—because every prophet would be a “false prophet”. But because there are both true prophets and false prophets, we need to “test the spirits”. (Edwards N. Need Prophets More than Prophecy. Shepherd’s Voice, Fall 2013)

The Great Bwana Bob Mzungu Thiel needs to continually trot out Edwards as PROOF that he and he alone is the one true prophet of the Church of God today.

The Great Bwana Bob Mzungu knows that he has been lumped in alongside all of the other lying Church of God false prophets over the last 8 decades. Church members understand this and even a lot of people in the public understand this.  This is a sore spot that the Great Bwana is unable to shake off. Since 99.99% of the COG has completely ignored him he has to resort to the blame game. Since it is the only REAL one in the church, members need to be supporting him. He then proceeds to call out those who do not support him as LAZY and UNWISE.

The existence of false prophets does NOT excuse not supporting a real one.

Consider that the Book of Proverbs warns:

16 The lazy man is wiser in his own eyes Than seven men who can answer sensibly. (Proverbs 26:16)

Now, most end time Christians do not believe that they are lazy, but wise.

Yet, they overlook evidence because they are uncomfortable with the idea that there could now be a prophet that they should heed.

It is NOT safer to reject a true prophet because there are many false ones.

The Great Bwana then has to drag in Leroy Neff as proof that he and he alone exhibits all the qualifications to be a prophet:

Back in 1986, then WCG evangelist L. Leroy Neff (now deceased) wrote a lot about how to identify a true prophet as well as what is not required:

How can you tell the impostor from the true servant of God? The answer will probably be quite surprising to many people because they are using an unscriptural basis for evaluation” … 

What are the credentials?

Some people would look to a prophet’s or minister’s credentials. He would be accepted if he were educated at a recognized theological institution. Others would look for a minister’s popularity, his charisma, his personality or his speaking ability.

But the Scriptures show that God’s servants have sometimes not had these qualities or credentials. They were not graduates of the recognized theological institutions of their day. Moses had trouble speaking in public (Exodus 4: 10). Jeremiah was “too young” (Jeremiah 1:6). Paul lacked certain speech abilities (I Corinthians 2: 1, II Corinthians 10:10). Even Jesus Himself had no outstanding personal characteristics that set Him apart from others, as the religious leaders had to pay Judas to point Him (Matthew 26:47-49).

Some would expect to find a true minister or prophet in a large and beautiful church building. Yet, during the history of the early Church, there is no mention of church buildings. Instead we read that the Church was not a building at all, but the people who were called out of this world to become the Church. The people (the Church) met in various buildings, sometimes in Church members’ homes (Romans 16:5, I Corinthians 16:19, Philemon 2). Paul preached for two years while under house arrest in rented facilities. He probably had both living quarters and a meeting hall of some kind (Acts 28:30-31).

Jesus said His followers would not be many in number, but would be comparatively few: “Do not fear, little flock, for it is your Father’s good pleasure to give you the kingdom” (Luke 12:32). (Neff LL. Imposter–or–True Prophet — Which? Good News, December 1986, pp. 10-11)

There is a reason the Great Bwana has to quote Leroy Neff and that is because Neff said that some prophets do not need credentials, such as legitimate theological education or have a lot of followers. Given that Bwana Bob has a "diploma" out of a double-wide trailer in India, supposedly theology, a degree that has been thoroughly discredited by Gavin Rumney and others over the years. 

A true prophet would not need to be from a major theological institution, have the most magnanimous personality, be charismatic, or have a necessarily impressive Church. He also does not have to have had a ministerial background. Nor does the prophet even, like apparently the Apostle Paul per 2 Corinthians 10:10 and 11:6 or Moses per Exodus 4:10 or Jeremiah per Jeremiah 1:6, need to be a great speaker. God chooses who His prophets are.

Yes, we know you have no real theology degree. We do know for a fact your personality is shockingly lacking in charisma, so much so that you come off as a sideshow and as a rather hilarious comedy routine at times.

Yes, God may pick a selection who were prophets, but we all know for a FACT that you are not appointed by God and that he had absolutely NOTHING to do with your self-appointed prophethood status. That is an indisputable fact. Besides, in the New Covenant, there is no need for prophets.

Then, the Great Bwana Bob Mzungu has to drag up his same old schtick about how he dreams dreams, AND that he wears the Philadelphia mantle, which in reality is just more COG crap theology.

The Apostle Peter stated:

17 ‘And it shall come to pass in the last days, says God, That I will pour out of My Spirit on all flesh; Your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, Your young men shall see visions, Your old men shall dream dreams. 18 And on My menservants and on My maidservants I will pour out My Spirit in those days; And they shall prophesy. (Acts 2:17-18)

Are these the last days?

If so, God should be using dreams and prophets.

Do you believe that?

All should REALLY pay attention to the Bible.

The apostles were confirmed by signs that followed them (Mark 16:20) and there have been signs that have confirmed the leadership of the Continuing Church of God. And the old Radio/Worldwide Church of God pointed to a dream that preceded its formation in becoming the group to originally hold the Philadelphia mantle.

He then continues to blackball all Church of God members and all Christians as fake because no one will follow him. Lobbing the Laodicean epitaph at COG members is just another scare tactic of desperate theologically bankrupt COG ministers. And, don't forget boys and girls, since you refuse to follow the Great Bwana Bob Mzungu you will NOT know when it is time to flee to Petra and be taught by him for 3 1/2 years.

Laodiceans are the bulk of end time Christians–not only are they NOT promised protection from what is coming, they are admonished by Jesus to repent. Yet, they feel that they are in need of nothing–which, in the case, includes the need to believe and heed any who claim to be a prophet.

Therefore, and this is the main point of my bringing church eras into this, IT WILL NOT BE CLEAR TO MOST END TIME CHRISTIANS THAT GOD HAS A PROPHET (OR PROPHETS) AND THAT THEY NEED TO HEED HIM WHEN HE GIVES THE MESSAGES THAT GOD WANTS GIVEN.

If so, all would know to flee when it is time and the Bible is clear that not all Christians would flee.

The absurdities by Great Bwana just get worse.  Apparently, he believes the creature he calls 'jesus' is knocking on the hearts of all COG members and ex-members to try and wake everyone up to the fact that the Great Bwana Bob Mzungu is the one true 21st century property!  See, I told you the absurdities were getting worse!

Recall that Jesus says He is knocking, yet the Laodiceans were not listening.

The Bible teaches:

1 Cry aloud, spare not; Lift up your voice like a trumpet; Tell My people their transgression, And the house of Jacob their sins. (Isaiah 58:1)

Isn’t that something a 21st century prophet would be doing?

Consider that multiple thousands of Church of God members, including the ministry, have heard warnings from places such as the COGwriter Church of God News page. Yet, the vast majority have failed to sufficiently respond to Jesus’ words about being Laodicean or what I post on that as well as other theological and prophetic subjects.

Since Jesus pointed to the last church of Revelation 2 & 3 needing to repent, plus only promised the Philadelphian Christians protection from the coming hour of trial, plus we know from what the Apostle Peter said there would be prophets in the last days, and that the last generation Jesus spoke of in Matthew 24 would see the return of Jesus in the 21st century, how would God appoint a 21st century prophet?

The Great Bwana's so-called 'jesus' is so ticked off with everyone ignoring the one true 21st century prophet that he is no longer going to send a sign due to the fact everyone is evil and adulterous. 

Would He do some dramatic miracle to make it clear to all end time Christians?

No.

Jesus also refused to do a dramatic one on more than one ocassion when pressed to prove who He was (Matthew 12:38). He then said:

“An evil and adulterous generation seeks after a sign” (Matthew 12:39)

Constantly being stung by the fact that the entire Church of God movement ignores him and calls him out as a self-appointed false prophet, the Great Bwana Bob Mzungu has to use any means he can to support his self appointment, even if it means dragging out Jesus when he thinks it would sound good to do so.

More crap COG theology:

Interestingly, the old Radio and Worldwide Church of God taught that God used dreams and would in the last days, yet most in the COGs today seem not to accept that.

Jesus said that a true prophet will basically self-declare:

40 “He who receives you receives Me, and he who receives Me receives Him who sent Me. 41 He who receives a prophet in the name of a prophet shall receive a prophet’s reward. (Matthew 10:40-41)

Yes, if you can accept a true prophet who declares he is a prophet, yes, you can get the reward of a prophet.

Then, the best part of all in his article, he lashes out at Banned, Terry Nelson, and Gavin Rumney for constantly making him look like a fool! Delightful! We wear that badge with honor!

Yet, throughout history, people said bad things about God’s prophets (e.g. Jeremiah 43:1-7).

Jesus said:

11 Blessed are you when they revile and persecute you, and say all kinds of evil against you falsely for My sake. 12 Rejoice and be exceedingly glad, for great is your reward in heaven, for so they persecuted the prophets who were before you. (Matthew 5:11-12)

Many once nominally part of the COG (e.g. see Banned by HWA and Ambassador Watch) as well as many inside still claiming to be have said false and evil things against me (e.g. see Can Christians Actually be Cursed By Witches or Witch Doctors?).

Do not accept false prophets. Do not, however, believe it is safer to not accept God’s criteria for prophets.

If you really were a prophet sent by God, people would know. However, everyone in the. Living Church of God, from its leaders and ministers down to the everyday members knows that you are a fraud and a false prophet. Kudos to them! Everyone in the other COG groups knows that you are a liar and false preheat. That is why the entire Church of God movement has REJECTED YOU! Even when people leave LCG, RCG, PCG, and other groups they still DO NOT join up with you. Everyone knows! Everyone knows!

The Great Bwana Bob Mzungu then proceeds to claim that he now has over 9,000 members, but fails to mention that 8,900 of them live in Africa with little internet access and are led by men who church hop from one Adventist/sabbatarian group to the next looking for whoever gives them the most money. Numbers are important to the Great Bwana Bob Mzungu. Constantly telling other COG people that he has more members than they do makes him feel good and keeps his heart puffed up with vanity. Classic signs of a narcissist.

Even Herbert Armstrong had to be dug up out of his grave to support the Great Bwana Bob Mzungu:

The late Pastor General of the old Worldwide Church of God, Herbert W. Armstrong, taught the following about Romans 11:25:

Now I want you to study carefully one of the most wonderful, important chapters in all the Bible — the 11th of Romans. … Verse 23 says those who abide not still in unbelief shall YET receive salvation. … Now study carefully beginning verse 25: “Blindness in part is happened to Israel [HOW LONG? Forever? No — note it], UNTIL the fulness of the Gentiles be come in” — the end of this age during which God is calling a people from among the gentiles to bear His name (Acts 15:14).  (Armstrong HW. Where Will The MILLENNIUM Be Spent? Tomorrow’s Word magazine, September 1971, p. 5)

Where is this occurring most in the Churches of God?

Well in the CCOG where we have had over 9,000 Gentiles come in (see also What About Romans 11:25 and the Full Number of the Gentiles?). Unlike various other x-WCG groups, the vast bulk with us were NOT once part of the old WCG nor were their parents part of the old WCG.

This is a fruit of a prophetic evangelist.


The Great Bwana Bob Mzungu ends with this:

Please accept the criteria that God, not some organization claiming to best represent Him, has set for determining who is a true prophet of God. Do not add non-biblical criteria, which is what most have done.

Accept God’s form of governance, which means how HE ordains leaders. Accept God’s criteria for a prophet.

We in the Continuing Church of God “have also a more sure word of prophecy; whereunto ye do well that ye take heed, as unto a light that shineth in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the day star arise in your hearts” (2 Peter 1:19, KJV).”

Use God’s criteria, not your emotions or the opinions of others, to persuade you to prove all things related to prophets and God’s use of dreams.

Absolute nothing the Great Bwana wrote above is criteria from God that we should accept him.  The extra-biblical nonsense he has added to enslave his followers is appalling. The morally bankrupt system of "church governance" inherited from the mother church is rotten to the core. No splinter group leader ever respected that-called governance, back then or today.

The improperly named "continuing" Church of "god" no more holds a sure word of prophecy than Dave Pack or Gerald Flurry does.

God's criteria on lying Church of God false prophets is this:

Deuteronomy 18:20

20 But a prophet who presumes to speak in my name anything I have not commanded, or a prophet who speaks in the name of other gods, is to be put to death.”

Ezekiel13:9

My hand will be against the prophets who see false visions and utter lying divinations. They will not belong to the council of my people or be listed in the records of Israel, nor will they enter the land of Israel. Then you will know that I am the Sovereign LORD.

Jeremiah 14:14

Then the LORD said to me, “The prophets are prophesying lies in my name. I have not sent them or appointed them or spoken to them. They are prophesying to you false visions, divinations, idolatries and the delusions of their own minds.

Jeremiah 23:16

This is what the LORD Almighty says: “Do not listen to what the prophets are prophesying to you; they fill you with false hopes. They speak visions from their own minds, not from the mouth of the LORD.

Luke 6:26

Woe to you when everyone speaks well of you, for that is how their ancestors treated the false prophets.

Matthew 24:24

For false messiahs and false prophets will appear and perform great signs and wonders to deceive, if possible, even the elect

Matthew 16:11-12

How is it you don’t understand that I was not talking to you about bread? But be on your guard against the yeast of the Pharisees and Sadducees.”

12 Then they understood that he was not telling them to guard against the yeast used in bread, but against the teaching of the Pharisees and Sadducees.

2 Timothy 4:3-4

For the time will come when people will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear.

4 They will turn their ears away from the truth and turn aside to myths.

Acts 20,:28-30

Keep watch over yourselves and all the flock of which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers. Be shepherds of the church of God, which he bought with his own blood.

29 I know that after I leave, savage wolves will come in among you and will not spare the flock.

30 Even from your own number men will arise and distort the truth in order to draw away disciples after them.

2 Peter 3:14-18

So then, dear friends, since you are looking forward to this, make every effort to be found spotless, blameless and at peace with him.

15 Bear in mind that our Lord’s patience means salvation, just as our dear brother Paul also wrote you with the wisdom that God gave him.

16 He writes the same way in all his letters, speaking in them of these matters. His letters contain some things that are hard to understand, which ignorant and unstable people distort, as they do the other Scriptures, to their own destruction.

17 Therefore, dear friends, since you have been forewarned, be on your guard so that you may not be carried away by the error of the lawless and fall from your secure position.

18 But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and forever! Amen.

1 John 4:1-6

Dear friends, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world.

2 This is how you can recognize the Spirit of God: Every spirit that acknowledges that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is from God,

3 but every spirit that does not acknowledge Jesus is not from God. This is the spirit of the antichrist, which you have heard is coming and even now is already in the world.

Matthew 7:15-20

Watch out for false prophets. They come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ferocious wolves.

16 By their fruit you will recognize them. Do people pick grapes from thornbushes, or figs from thistles?

17 Likewise, every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit.

18 A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, and a bad tree cannot bear good fruit.

19 Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire.

20 Thus, by their fruit you will recognize them.

2 Peter 1:20-21

20 Above all, you must understand that no prophecy of Scripture came about by the prophet’s own interpretation of things.

21 For prophecy never had its origin in the human will, but prophets, though human, spoke from God as they were carried along by the Holy Spirit.

Titus 1:6-16

Therefore rebuke them sharply, so that they will be sound in the faith

14 and will pay no attention to Jewish myths or to the merely human commands of those who reject the truth.

15 To the pure, all things are pure, but to those who are corrupted and do not believe, nothing is pure. In fact, both their minds and consciences are corrupted.

16 They claim to know God, but by their actions they deny him. They are detestable, disobedient and unfit for doing anything good.
