The Day After

 


Can UCG Ever Restore Trust And Accountablity With Its Leaders?

Humble, servant leadership in the Church of God? 
What a novel concept!



When United Church of God split off from the Worldwide Church of God, they had a chance to boldly step out and reform the way the church operated and how it treated its members. Unfortunately, this never happened because the top men who gathered for a year before UCG's formation, planning their exit, were men already corrupted and tainted by the power structure and poor operational principles practiced by the church. Many in Pasadena watched these men and knew how they operated, but they wanted no part of UCG's formation. These men were not servant leaders but men who coveted their positions of power as a minister or as a department head.

Sadly, they took the same operational patterns over to UCG, where servant leadership never came to fruition. Their long-held belief was that members were there to serve them. There was and still is a total lack of transparency in how they operate. WCG ingrained this in them all too well. UCG ministers today feel they are no more accountable to the members than they were while in WCG.

Nathan Albright had this up on his blog around the time UCG was stabbing their former president in the back and seeking to elect a new leader who conformed to their desires instead of the members.

The recent decision not to confirm our widely respected president for another term, conducted behind closed doors and seemingly at odds with the will of many elders and members, has understandably created confusion and distress. When decisions that affect the entire body are made without transparent processes or clear explanations, trust inevitably suffers. Combined with concerns about financial stewardship, media strategy, and potential conflicts of interest, we find ourselves at a crossroads that demands thoughtful consideration of how we might better align our governance practices with our shared values and mission.

The Current Crisis of Confidence

Understanding the Root Issues

Before prescribing solutions, we must candidly assess the nature of our current difficulties. The non-confirmation of our president despite his popularity points to a disconnect between formal governance structures and the wider community’s perspectives. This disconnect becomes particularly troubling when:

    1. Decision-making processes lack transparency
    2. Resource allocation appears inconsistent with results (expensive rebranding versus cost-effective video production)
    3. Technical expertise gaps exist in critical ministry areas
    4. Informal power centers seem to exert undue influence over formal governance structures
    5. Potential conflicts of interest threaten to compromise objective decision-making

These challenges are not unique to our church. Throughout church history, religious communities have struggled with the tension between institutional authority and communal discernment, between tradition and adaptation, between leadership continuity and renewal. The task before us is to address these tensions in ways that strengthen rather than weaken our community.

The Cost of Inaction

If we fail to address these governance challenges, the consequences could be severe:

    • Erosion of trust between leadership and members
    • Declining engagement and participation
    • Reduced financial support
    • Difficulty attracting and retaining talented leaders
    • Impaired mission effectiveness
    • Potential factional division within the church

Biblical Principles for Church Governance

Transparency and Accountability

Scripture offers clear guidance regarding leadership accountability. The apostle Paul’s instructions to Timothy emphasize that church leaders must be “above reproach” (1 Timothy 3:2), implying that their conduct should withstand scrutiny. Jesus himself taught that “everyone who does evil hates the light, and will not come into the light for fear that their deeds will be exposed” (John 3:20). These passages suggest that while privacy has its place, secrecy in governance often works against the church’s spiritual health.

The Church of God has never practiced transparency. They got by with it all through the decades until people started having access to email and the internet. At that point, they could no longer hide things. Sure, they would lash out and disfellowship members who dared to question them and would publicly tell members not to read dissident literature or read stuff on the internet, but people ignored them, and they have never been able to stop the flow of information that surrounds the church to this day. They still try and hide stuff from members, but it gets out eventually and when it does the shit hits the fan. Literally! 

Servant Leadership

Jesus established the paradigm for Christian leadership when he washed his disciples’ feet and taught that “whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant” (Mark 10:43). This model stands in stark contrast to worldly power dynamics where authority flows downward through command and control. In Christ’s kingdom, authority flows upward through service and sacrifice.

Servant leadership in Armstrongism is a joke. They love to talk about it all the time, but the broad majority never practice it. I remember to this day three of UCG's top men who, while in Pasadena before the implosion, would hand-pick the men who would wash their feet at Passover. We had to have warm water for them and large fluffy towels ready to dry their immaculate feet. These guys treated members with contempt at times. One who worked in the Church Offices would stand in the hallway after counseling sessions with members and laugh and joke with other ministers about the person they had just met with. Granted, there were a few men who did practice servant leadership, and members respect them to this day, whether in or out of the church. These men tended to be treated like dirt and sent off to the neither lands to run small churches.

Wisdom in Decision-Making

The Book of Proverbs repeatedly emphasizes the value of seeking counsel: “Plans fail for lack of counsel, but with many advisers they succeed” (Proverbs 15:22). The Jerusalem Council described in Acts 15 demonstrates a collaborative decision-making process that involved testimony, scriptural reflection, and consensus-building. These examples suggest that important decisions benefit from diverse perspectives and open deliberation.

Wise decision-making from church leaders and councils? What an oxymoron! 

Unity and Consensus

Paul’s letters frequently emphasize the importance of unity in the church. To the Philippians, he writes, “make my joy complete by being like-minded, having the same love, being one in spirit and of one mind” (Philippians 2:2). While unanimity on every decision is unrealistic, governance processes that seek consensus rather than mere majority rule better reflect this biblical value.

Albright ends his article with this vision he sees that the church can actually do. History proves it will not and is incapable of doing, but it's a good dream.

Conclusion: A Call to Faithful Governance

The governance challenges our church faces are significant but not insurmountable. With wisdom, courage, and commitment to biblical principles, we can transform this moment of crisis into an opportunity for renewed faithfulness and effectiveness.

The path forward requires contributions from everyone in our community:

    • From current leadership: Humility to acknowledge legitimate concerns, courage to implement meaningful reforms, and wisdom to balance tradition with needed change.
    • From elders and ministers: Constructive engagement with the reform process, patience during implementation, and commitment to unity amid disagreement on specifics.
    • From members: Grace toward leaders navigating complex challenges, active participation in new feedback channels, and continued financial and volunteer support during the transition.
    • From all: Prayer for divine wisdom, discernment of God’s leading, and recommitment to our shared mission and values.

The ultimate measure of successful governance reform will not be structural changes or process improvements, though these are important. Success will be measured by renewed trust, increased engagement, improved stewardship, and most importantly, enhanced effectiveness in advancing the gospel and making disciples.

Our church stands at a crossroads. One path leads to continued frustration, declining trust, and diminished impact. The other—the path outlined in this essay—leads to renewed vigor, restored confidence, and revitalized ministry. The choice before us is clear, though the journey will require sacrifice and commitment from all.

May we choose wisely, act faithfully, and move forward together in the confidence that God remains at work in and through our community, even amid institutional challenges. The future of our church depends not primarily on governance structures or leadership personalities, but on our collective willingness to pursue faithfulness in all aspects of our common life—including the critical dimension of church governance.

In the spirit of the apostle Paul’s exhortation, let us “make every effort to keep the unity of the Spirit through the bond of peace” (Ephesians 4:3) as we navigate these waters together. And may our governance reforms, like all our endeavors, ultimately serve to bring glory to God and advance the kingdom of Christ in our world.

Was The Mantle of True Church Government Passed On To Samuel Kitchen?


 

Now we know why Samuel is so adamant about restoring the Worldwide Church of God. After the implosion with the Great Apostasy, true church government was preserved in his own family, with his father as the supreme head. At his father's death, that mantle was passed on to Samuel, and it is now his responsibility to restore the one true Worldwide Church of God as Herbert Armstrong envisioned it by permission from Jesus Christ.


The separation between church and organization. 
 
The WCG INC, along with Ambassador College, the ACIF, etc are corporate entities that were UNDER the Worldwide Church of God a/k/a unincorporated spiritual organism. 
 
This was recognized and declared by the chief officer of those corporations, Mr Herbert W Armstrong! 
 
Now why do so many want to disregard that separation? 
 
Mr Armstrong has the authority of Jesus Christ, as an apostle and minister of Jesus Christ! 
 
He created an Advisory Council of Elders to surround him and serve him within the Church! 
 
If he was to die, he delegated to them the power and authority to take full charge of the work and church and all assets! 
 
If you research the men in the ACE, you find they individually signed away their council powers to Tkach Sr, in 1991, and then individually left and attempted to gain full control by a new organization! 
 
The only man not to do this was Aaron Dean, who was on the council when Mr Armstrong died and had delegated authority and powers. 
 
He did not attempt to take full control! Everyone else was busy doing that. 
 
All the vultures were taking pieces of the body, swallowing as much as they could. Dividing it amongst themselves. 
 
One group offered Mr Dean a job, and it allowed Mr Dean to be like Daniel in captivity. 
 
He was unable to do his work as an Advisory Council Member. But he could deal with people one on one. 
 
I was born in 1991. 
 
1991 was the start of another 19 year time cycle. 
 
19 yearsrs later in 2010 Aaron Dean was hired by the United Church of God. 
 
In 2010 my family began warning brethren online of departures from the truth! 
 
We began stirring up the scattered membership of the Worldwide Church of God! 
 
Our work was organized through my father. 
 
It was the God ordained government in the family that ruled! 
 
In 2021 my father died leaving me in charge. 
 
So I’ve been warning brethren online ever since, and have been raising awareness of the existence of the Worldwide Church of God! 
 
And now I’m raising awareness of Mr Aaron Dean’s role and function in the Worldwide Church of God! 
 
And by my family, Christ has brought forth crowns to place on his head(Zech. 6:10,14), which simply represents authority and power in the Temple of God! 
 
How can the Worldwide Church of God be dead? When members are standing by, ready to support the ministry when they are restored. When there is a man who has delegated and appointed power, from the apostle, to take FULL CONTROL of the Work and Church! 
 
That means there must be a church! There must be a work! 
 
So that preparation has been done! It is being done.

Will Aaron Dean Assume His Primacy On September 23, 2025?


More on Aaron Dean's prophetic role still yet to be played...
 

...authority within the Church of God is appointed. And Aaron Dean is the last one with appointed authority INSIDE THE WORLDWIDE CHURCH OF GOD! He has delegated council powers from the apostle.
He has the authority to TAKE FULL CHARGE OF THE WORK, the Church and all assets! But the UCG is not this Church! Its work is not the work of the Worldwide Church of God!
A step of faith needs to happen.
So pray for Mr Dean. Let the ground shake brethren with our prayers!!!!
Im going to Jerusalem this year, for Trumpets, Day of Atonement and the Feast of Tabernacles. Some brethren are coming with me.
In Ezra and Nehemiah, we see the people gathering together in Jerusalem.
Now on “..the four and twentieth day of the sixth month…”(Haggai 1:15) Joshua comes to Zerubbabel to do preparations for the construction of the Temple in Jerusalem. Zerubbabel is mentioned first, in primacy.
This year, that date falls on September 17th.
September 23, is Trumpets.
According to Ezra 3:1, Joshua stands up at Trumpets and is mentioned first in PRIMACY.
This is obviously after Zechariah 3.
He could not act in accordance to His Temple duties without being cleaned up and restored to his office!
Interesting information: Aaron Dean was born on the Feast of Trumpets.
I’m overlaying the dates mentioned in God’s Word as if they are falling on this year, to give us some perspective.
September 17, 2025 the preparation for construction of the Temple begins.
The man with the Zerubbabel office has Primacy.(Haggai 1)
By September 23,2025 which is the Feast of Trumpets, the man with the Joshua office has Primacy.(Ezra 3)
They keep the Feast of Tabernacles together.(Ezra 3)
So I’m going to be in Jerusalem, with members of the Worldwide Church of God. And I’m going to raise awareness towards God and Mr Aaron Dean! Some brethren are coming with me in support. I hope to see more people.
Because the Church is God’s. And it’s important to me. It’s important to those inside the Body of Christ! And like an automobile, every one needs to be in their proper appointed place!
So Mr.Aaron Dean, I invite you to Jerusalem. Your room and board is all paid for. I’ve already spent a month this year in Jerusalem in preparation and I am confident Christ is with us.
The Bible says what needs to be done! We ought to move heaven and earth to obey and believe God!
You are not only part of the Worldwide Church of God Mr Dean, you have authority within it! If you want to talk to me about it, call me or text me (928) 358-7___.
But you are invited to Jerusalem Mr Dean! We would love to see you there.
In Christian service,
Samuel W Kitchen

Dave Pack: I am NOT a prophet! But, I am dispised in my own country, with my kin, and in my own house


 



During "The Greatest Untold Story! (Part 579)" Given On June 7, 2025, 
David C. Pack of The Restored Church of God states he has never claimed to be a prophet. 
We all know by now that David C. Pack is a liar. 
He has been claiming to be a prophet for a decade. 
I have put together some clips from the last year or two of him claiming to be a prophet. 

It will always blow my mind when people claim to not have done or said something 
when there is proof of it AND they know it.

Philadelphia Church of God Members To Soon Sit On Throne Of David Next To Christ



Ever since Gerald Flurry traipsed through the woods in Oregon trying to find HWA's prayer rock, he has been on a wild, fantastical journey of absurd speculations. The search for this rock plays into the blind worship of all things Herbert Armstrong. When Flurry supposedly found the very rock Herbert knelt at. Flurry also had to kneel in reverence to the holy rock before him.



Flurry then dug up his new relic and shipped it back to Edmond, Oklahoma, where it was placed in an outside garden to be stared at in awe and to sit and contemplate over. 




It wasn't long till it was noticed that most were not paying holy homage to the rock as Flurry thought his people should. So it was brought inside to be enclosed in a case while it rested on royal purple velvet.


Then,  not long after, Flurry's resident demon told him that this rock was going to be the very rock Jesus was coming back to be crowned upon as King of Kings. The holiness of the rock increased 100 fold.


It was also revealed to Flurry around this time that the dance that David did while naked was actually Irish Dance. Soon, hundred's of thousands of dollars were to be spent on dance studios, staging, music composing, etc, to showcase David's dance, though fully clothed. Flurry and his crew came up with a new idea to showcase Herb's stone in a throne chair and have church youth dance around it in a pagan/fertility dance.





Flurry's next step was to claim Jesus was returning to Edmond to sit upon this very stone when he returns, next week, according to Dave Pack. This, however, would present a logistical nightmare since Armstrongism always said Jesus was returning to sit upon the coronation chair in Westminster Abbey that held the Stone of Scone. England pulled a double whammy when they gave the stone back to them; it was proof that a new stone was to be used, and who on the entire earth possessed such a thing? Bob Thiel? Nope, he is always a dollar short and a day late to everything. Gerald Flurry claimed that Herbert's stone was the new coronation stone Jesus was returning to. Flurry then bought new property in Jerusalem in order to have a European home in case they need to move Herb's stone closer to England and the Lia Fáil phallus in Ireland, where Abraham supposedly buried the ark that PCG wants to dig up. In an interesting side note, not only has Flurry caressed the Lia Fáil stone and preached before it, but the Great Bwana Bob Thiel also stroked it when he too preached a sermon from there. It is interesting how the aberrant splinter cults of Armstrongism want to return to their pagan roots.

PCG members are regularly hit with articles about being royalty in God's sight. Now, they too can sit on the very throne Jesus is returning to. Since they will be equal gods to Jesus, reigning next to him, it is only right that they too will be crowned upon Herb's stone, thus allowing them to be seated next to JC himself, equal gods ruling the universe.

PCG's Brad McDonald wrote this today, June 10, 2025

A humble, teachable, contrite spirit is the first, most important attitude we must build! All other righteous character traits spring from it: godly fear, spiritual understanding, repentance, faith. Happiness requires humility, as do healthy relationships with others, and happy, righteous marriages. Humble children are happy children. 
 
“This rare character trait would solve all world problems and revolutionize every human life,” Mr. Flurry wrote in 2019. Humility will solve your problems too. It is at least part of the solution to every trial, problem and struggle you face. It is the key that unlocks the door to a vibrant, joyous relationship with God. 
 
“David asked, Who am I to even be able to give to God? (1 Chronicles 29:14),” Mr. Flurry writes. “This is the attitude God wants from us. He wants us to thank Him for the understanding and the opportunity to be a part of His Work. He wants us to thank Him that we can be His sons and daughters and He can be our Father. We in the firstfruits calling have the opportunity to sit on the throne of David at headquarters forever! What a reward! Who are we to be given such an honor and such blessings?”

Samuel Kitchen Invites Aaron Dean To Step Up And Take On His True Mantle And Restore The Worldwide Church Of God

 



Aaron Dean responds with this:

Aaron K Dean

Yes I am the only surviving member of ACE. Half left the truth and all have died. My assignment may have been a Caleb and not a Joshua as you presume. If indeed God has something for me to do, then He will reveal it and I will do it. Christ,the head of the church decides if, when, how and who. We must all defer to Him. Taking matters into your own hands without God's direction has never worked well. Time will tell.

Aaron Dean

This excited Sameul Kitchen, who asked Aaron Dean if people could start sending their tithes and offering money to him. What???????????????

Aaron K Dean can I list you as the “DULY APPOINTED” on worldwidechurchofgod.org and ask brethren to save aside tithes and offerings, for you? 
 
I am reminded of, Ezra 2:63. 
 
“And the Tirshatha(who was Nehemiah)said unto them, that they should not eat of the most holy things, till there stood up a priest with Urim and with Thummim.” 
 
Now we know our High Priest is Jesus Christ, but we also know there is a human instrument in Christ’s hands. 
 
You, have the delegated authority to handle and receive tithes and offerings from our people! Until you stand up in your position, we should save aside our tithes and offerings, as Malachi 3 commands so that there may be meat in God’s house. 
 
Notice meat, not milk. 
 
I want to help you stand up, so do other brethren. I also don’t want to offend you by inclusion in something you don’t agree with. 
 
Let me know.

I want to strengthen you in the Lord. If that means giving my life, my everything, then so be it. There is nothing more important than God’s Church getting ready! I believe we are entering a time of no more delay.

Recapture Tomorrow

If this were to ever happen, this would deflate Bob Thiel's cult big time. Bob would have no reason to even exist any more. Hilarious times are ahead! 

Armstrongism gets crazier by the day!

Crackpot Know-it-all Prophet Blows A Prophetic Gasket Over Banned! Again!!

 

Visions of Fatima, Mayans, witchdoctors, and absurd bible interpretations. 
The list of blasphemies is endless.

As Los Angeles burns with rioters, God's most highly favored self-appointed prophet to ever exist in the arc of humanity's existence on this earth has blown a major gasket over Banned. For some unimaginable reason, this blog seems to pop his cork a lot! I sit here and ponder daily how is it that we can offend him so easily? I guess that is why he is an avid reader of this blog, multiple times a day.

I can hear the wailing and gnashing of teeth all the way down here in Pasadena. Never has the Church of God had a more delicate and easily offended self-appointed and illegitimately ordained prophet in its midst. That's saying something considering the many self-appointed prophets that preceded him in COGland.

Here is what the little guy started off with:

Well, some of Satan’s allies at Banned by HWA continue to post lies about me and others in the Continuing Church of God (CCOG). 
 
Here is some of what was posted yesterday by Gary Leonard at Banned: 
 
Look at what your rebellion and refusal to submit to church government caused when you apostasized from the Living Church of God. Your traitorous, backstabbing actions and lies were appalling. It is no wonder Rod Meredith kicked you to the curb! Heck, even Gaylyn Bonjour came out and said you were wrong in taking his blessing as justification for starting a new splinter group. 
 
That is a lie, I was never kicked out of LCG, nor did I apostatize. And, I spoke to Gaylyn Bonjour myself many times and that is not what he said to me. 
 
Gary Leonard, webmaster at the Banned site, has been spreading those lies about me for many years.

All of you big, bad meanies here had better stop picking on Bwana Bob! How could you do this when he is God's most highly favored prophet, preordained before the earth was formed, to come in these perilous end times to give a warning to the world, wait...sorry, to print hundreds and hundreds of booklets no one cares to read.

The Great Bwana loves to gaslight Living Church of God leadership, Gaylyn Bonjour, and the rest of the church by claiming that Bonjour double blessed him to start a new lacking in personality cult. Bonjour did no such thing and did not have that in mind when he blessed Bob that he speak clearly to Rod Meredith when he went in for a meeting. Bonjour and NO INTENTION of blessing Bwana Bob or ordaining him to start a new church made in a fit of rebellion. For Bwana Bob to claim otherwise is to blatantly lie, which he does, continually.

God's greatest gift to the church then trots out Jesus to support this intense persecution that the Great Bwana is suffering. If he would stop lying and making outlandish claims, no one would be bothering him, 
alas...


10 Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness’ sake, For theirs is the kingdom of heaven. 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 5:10-12)

Certain ones at Banned and various other places have regularly been fulfilling that prophecy and saying all kinds of things falsely against me, the CCOG, and others in various COGs.

One thing that many people at Banned and the other anti-COG sites cannot stand is the idea that the true ministry is not in it for the money. Many who became bitter against the WCG have asserted that the ministry is only in it for the money. Certain ones have claimed that the COG ministry lives exceedingly well off the backs of the tithe-payers. Yet I do not, as my income does NOT come from the CCOG nor those who donate to it.

I can state, with God as my witness, that Bob Thiel is NOT a true minister of the church. He never has been and never will be unless he repents of his lies and blasphemies. Besides, he is illegitimately ordained and has absolutely ZERO apostolic lineage in his illegitimate ordination, so that simple fact alone invalidates him as a true minister of the church.

The Great Bwana then goes on to compare everyone here to Goebbels from WWII. I haven't stopped laughing for the last 15 minutes at that one! One thing is for sure: Bwana Bob is a real comedian!

He writes the following with the special comment that HE kicked the Living Church of God out instead of them kicking him out.

Satan’s minions have long followed Joseph Goebbels’ playbook on this–and, of course, did so well before Joseph Goebbels was ever born (cf. John 8:43-47). 
 
Sadly, many have accepted lies promoted by people on the anti-COG websites. 
 
While I have not responded to most of the falsehoods and accusations they continue to post about CCOG and me, sometimes I do. 
 
Gary Leonard, the webmaster of the anti-COG Banned by HWA site has a history of libeling me and make false assertions about me. 
 
For example, in June 2020 he posted:

Meredith publicly rebuked Thiel from the pulpit and kicked him out of the church (Leonard G. Why do COG members still feel the need that they still have to go to the ministers for answers? June 19, 2020) 
 
That was about the third time in three weeks in 2020 that he had some version of that lie at his website–and his site has had versions of it since. 
 
Of course, all the top leadership of the Living Church of God know full well I was not kicked out. I left because the leadership had serious integrity problems and refused to keep promises that they repeatedly made to me. 
 
Gary Leonard cannot get over the fact that it was I who “kicked out” LCG on December 28, 2012, not the other way around. If he and others at his libelous site would stop repeating the lie I was kicked out of LCG, I would not feel the desire to sometimes comment about it. 
 
Perhaps it should be mentioned that right after I left, even Jim Meredith (son of Dr. Meredith) emailed me and asked me to reconsider and come back. I declined.

Using a comment from Jim Meredith to support oneself is not a wise decision since Jim is not known as the brightest bulb in LCG pack. 

LCG  leadership has posted over and over on their blogs and in comments to LCG members that Bob was kicked out and that the integrity problem lay clearly at Bwana Bob's feet due to his ingrained narcissism. Rod Meredith about how much Bob disdained instruction:

I have prayed that for your own good and your future reward in God’s Kingdom, you will sincerely ask God at this time to give you an open mind and willing heart to heed Almighty God’s instruction in Proverbs 15:31-33: “The ear that hears the rebukes of life will abide among the wise. He who disdains instruction despises his own soul, but he who heeds rebuke gets understanding. The fear of the Lord is the instruction of wisdom, and before honor is humility.”

And, about his lack of humility: 

Bob, I have personally liked you, wanted to encourage you and have tried to work with you for years. However, I have seen that you have had great difficulty in learning the lessons of deep humility that God wants all of us to learn. With very few exceptions, nearly everyone who knows you has clearly seen that—although you have a quick mind and great energy—you have nearly always thought very highly of yourself and of your own opinions. 

It was not just the ministry that had to deal with the Great Bwana's narcissism; the members got sick of his games, too:

You have offended or at least “bugged” dozens of Church members with this very self-important, pushy and “know-it-all” attitude and approach. So if I, as a minister of Christ for over 60 years and one old enough to be your father—can help you, I would certainly like to do this. For I love you as a fellow human being and one I have known and shared a number of hours with in talking over matters related to the Bible and our entire purpose here on this earth.

LCG members have been the most vocal about calling Bwana Bob out as a fraud. They saw it when he was in LCG. That is why the church never ordained him. Global Church of God also saw the same toxic characteristics and never ordained him. The Worldwide Church of God also saw his toxic mannerism and refused to ordain him. 

The Great Bwana then drags Gavin Rumney up from his grave to try and discredit him for exposing Bwana Bob's Indian diploma mill. That has been Bwana Bob's sore spot for years now.

He then goes into great detail, giving his tainted version of just how things went down with Gaylyn Bonjour's so-called double blessing and a few more meltdowns over me.

He counts his so-called persecution s a blessing:

So yes, Gary Leonard, Jesus said I am blessed when you post all kinds of insults, evil, and false things about me. Jesus knew His faithful people would be lied about.

The only problem with this is that the so-called "continuing" Church of God is not God's church. Never has been and ever will be as long as it prostitutes itself to the law and the diabolically wicked biblical interpretations that Bwana Bob makes that lead his followers in Africa astray. They certainly may be true seekers of truth but have been swayed by corrupt leaders who have chuch-hopped various Sabbatarian groups for decades, trying to find out who will send the most money.

I can state for a fact that Bwana Bob Thiel is NOT a legitimate minister of God. He is NOT a leader of a so-called "true" church. I can state for a fact that Bwana Bob's so-called church is built upon lies, half-truths, and doctrinal heresy. No real follower of Christ would ever be a member of Bwana Bob's church. That is also a fact. Bob Thiel does NOT come in the name of Jesus Christ.

The Bible makes profound statements about the lying false prophet, Bob Thiel:

2 Peter 2:1 ESV

But false prophets also arose among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you, who will secretly bring in destructive heresies, even denying the Master who bought them, bringing upon themselves swift destruction. 
 
1 John 4:1-6 ESV

Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, for 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 from God, and every spirit that does not confess Jesus is not from God. This is the spirit of the antichrist, which you heard was coming and now is in the world already. Little children, you are from God and have overcome them, for he who is in you is greater than he who is in the world. They are from the world; therefore they speak from the world, and the world listens to them. ... 
 
2 Corinthians 11:13-15 ESV

For such men are false apostles, deceitful workmen, disguising themselves as apostles of Christ. And no wonder, for even Satan disguises himself as an angel of light. So it is no surprise if his servants, also, disguise themselves as servants of righteousness. Their end will correspond to their deeds. 
 
Matthew 24:11 ESV

And many false prophets will arise and lead many astray. 
 
2 Timothy 4:3 ESV 
 
For the time is coming when people will not endure sound teaching, but having itching ears they will accumulate for themselves teachers to suit their own passions,

Bob adds to scripture and the words of God with his own lies, which God condemns. All of his crap about dreams, visions, Fatima, Mayans, double blessings are all fluff meant to lead people astray. His resident witchdoctors in Africa in his congregations have him pegged! They know exactly what he is.

Deuteronomy 18:20-22 ESV 

But the prophet who presumes to speak a word in my name that I have not commanded him to speak, or who speaks in the name of other gods, that same prophet shall die.’ And if you say in your heart, ‘How may we know the word that the Lord has not spoken?’— when a prophet speaks in the name of the Lord, if the word does not come to pass or come true, that is a word that the Lord has not spoken; the prophet has spoken it presumptuously. You need not be afraid of him.

No one in ANY Church of God needs to fear Bob Thiel. 

He is a false prophet. 

He did not receive dreams or visions from God.

He is a false minister. 

He is NOT a true minister of God. 

God did not send him.

God did not command him to speak.

He is NOT leading a true Church of God. 

He is a deceiver of the brethren.

God never sent him to the church.

These are immutable facts.
