The Great Self-appointed Bwana and Savior of the Church of God, Bobaniah Thiel has proclaimed for many years that he has thousands of members in Africa. He has claimed he has 3,000+ members there. Bobaniah apparently uses the same counting system that Wade Cox uses when he claims 1/2 of the African continent, including untold numbers of Muslims, are his followers. There is one thing for sure about the COG and that it has always been good at fudging numbers and making them mean something other than what they actually are.
Bobaniah has this up on his blog in a letter to his African faithful. Notice the numbers they are reporting:
India, Ethiopia, South Sudan, Haiti, Tanzania, Uganda, and Zambia
Per my request, various leaders have provided numbers of congregants in various lands.
From our deacon in India:
We have 39 members who have been baptised and another equal number who are co-workers who await baptism.
Our feast participants number nearly 80.
From deacon Koang Deng, here are parts of two emails:
Truly, we do have more number here in Ethiopia than that of South Sudan.
Ethiopia has … Total number 88.
For South Sudan {50}…
He also mentioned also that there are another 52 in Ethiopia that expressed interest, but he is not convinced that they are yet faithful.
In Haiti, we have 20 people.
From evangelist Evans Ochieng:
The church members in Tanzania are 65 they were 67 but two left. One died and another man … left.
While in Uganda we have 8 people.From deacon Radson Mulozowa:
Zambia … Last time they report to have 50 brethren …
The fullness/full number of the Gentiles need to come in (Romans 11:25) and many are coming with the CCOG.
Serbia
We have 6 regular Sabbath and Holy Days attendances in Serbia. Four members are baptized, one person is being prepared for baptism and another is having issues with Sabbaths and Holy Days off, but attends more-less regularly.
Remember though, the fields are white for harvest and Bobaniah will soon be bringing untold numbers of people for the final end times push. How many years have we heard that from Ron Weinland, Dave Pack, Gerald Weston, Gerald Flurry, and other failing COG leaders?
