Two COG Blowhards Battling For The Soul Of Africa

 

We have all been witnessing the hilarious antics of the Great Bwana to Africa, Bob Mzungu Thiel over the last few years as he tries to encourage various church-hopping Sabbatarian groups to join his one true church. He has been "translating" certain of his books into as many languages as possible in what he claims is reaching the entire world so that's can usher in the end times.

His numbers are shrinking after continuing controversy in Africa involving adultery, witchcraft, money laundering, and other misdeeds.

On Monday, we received another 29 translations of our English language booklet The Gospel of the Kingdom of God – the number of languages we have our Gospel booklet in continues to grow as we take steps aligning with prophecies such as shown in Matthew 24:14 and Revelation 7:9.

While here, we received another 27 translations of our English booklet, The Gospel of the Kingdom of God,  as we continue to work towards Matthew 24:14.

This week we received twenty-seven more translations of our English language booklet The Gospel of the Kingdom of God. We have received over 700 translations and the number continues to rise almost every week. Let us all rejoice (cf. Romans 15:10) in that and not be “weary in well doing” (2 Thessalonians 3:13) as we  continue to take steps to prepare for the short work (Romans 9:28; see Preparing for the ‘Short Work’ and The Famine of the Word) as well as to assist with the fulfillment of various prophecies such as are shown in Matthew 24:14 and Revelation 7:9. Throughout the entire church age (which began at Pentecost in Acts 2 and which ends after Jesus returns with the seventh and last trumpet), no Church of God group has ever translated information on the good news of the Kingdom of God in anything close to the number of languages and dialects that we in the Continuing Church of God have had done.

As for Bwana Bob's actual church membership numbers in Africa, he has never been straightforward about it. 

Contrast that with another Church of God blowhard named Wade Cox. This buffoon claimed a few years ago that half the entire continent of Africa were now members of his cult. His words are about as credible as Great Bwana Bob Mzungu Thiel's words. It is a sad state of affairs that you cannot even trust COG leaders anymore, to tell the truth. Men, at least those who claim to be men, that should be setting the example of virtue and righteousness. Sadly these two qualities have been missing in the Church of God for decades.

Wade writes about his greatness:

Hi we have received another request for a consortium of 64 churches to join us this week as well as many smaller groups.

This was my general letter to the coords involved.
Dear Kandongo Joseph Ezekiel,
We are very pleased to hear from you and your request for induction to CCG.
Please have everyone study A1 and A2.
I have cced this to all national coordinators in the area. Joash Okiny Hamisi is TZ coordinator and he will arrange for your induction there. Jack Owuor will assist him as is necessary for your induction. We will locate you with local churches there and in other nations. Bizimana Bosco our East and Central African project officer in Uganda will contact you and arrange for inductions also. Habimana Pascal is coordinator for Burundi, Jean Ramazani in Rwanda and Mudimba Muhindo Lene is in the Congo with Jean Paul Nyonzima. George Onyango is Coordinator for Kenya and we are in the process of inducting another large church group in these countries that joined us last month and others.
It seems that we will have well over 40 churches in western TZ and Joash will talk with you about organising the west.
I would like reports from all Coordinators on the churches in their national areas and to arrange for their induction. Send Joseph your contact details also.
Warren and Sosten please arrange for the Zambia inductions with the others and advise me. (Warren is Coordinator for South Africa and Sosten is Coordinator for Malawi. Shungu is Coordinator for Zimbabwe).
Just for information this makes over 110 churches in two months before Passover of the Sabbath Year. Perhaps we have over 10,000 added to us in two months. How many baptisms and ordinations before Passover is anyone’s guess.
Wade

Church of God groups, like Christian missionaries, have for decades sought to bring the white man's version of God to people they consider savages or at least uneducated. They saw fertile ground to impose Western values upon these converts, or in the Church of God's case, impose innumerable COG versions of what each one deemed as true. 

These two Church of God groups are currently the biggest deceivers of the brethren in Africa right now. Neither one should be trusted as neither one actually follows the Jesus they both claim to follow.

David C. Pack Compilation of Failed Prophecies

 

Former Restored Church of God member, Frank Kelley, continues to churn out effective videos perfectly illustrating the madness of David C. Pack and his cowardly enabling hirelings at Headquarters.

The latest compilation is undeniable proof David C. Pack is a false apostle and false prophet. This series of clips spanning from June 2022 to January 2023 should shame and embarrass any ordained man in The Restored Church of God. It stands as a clear warning for those who have not yet joined RCG that they should stay far away. This is not the work of God. Biblical fraud is not the path that leads to truth.

We Would Rather Be Offended By A Picture of Jesus Than Ever Actually Following Him

This was on a Sabbatarian Facebook group the other day. Armstrongism has had a long record of mocking Christians and others who figuratively portray Jesus in art.

The following person took all the junk we were ever spoon-fed and wrapped it all up into one statement:

Never ceases to amaze me when I tell and (show Proof), that the depictions (Images) people see on the internet, art, photos, in church buildings, synagogues, temples, etc., drawings, etc. of a Jesus Christ looking like a hippy, wearing a dress, drunkard, a dope-head, uncouth, unshaven, feminine looking, looking like a drag queen (without the makeup), a transgender, etc., people seem to get somewhat hostile, arrogant, judgmental(condemning), They don't seem to realize such images of Christ originates (starting about 300 years), "after" the apostles and started in Rome, and Jesus Christ looked nothing like those images that have depicted Him as what I have listed herein. But people have been sooo ingrained with those images for "soooo long", that to the general public violating the second Commandment means nothing and is a normal way of seeing Christ......They don't care that it is blasphemoussooooo sad.....I tell those who get angry to read Romans chapter 1 and then 1 Corinthains chapter 1:14. I tell them God The Father taught Jesus Christ and Jesus Christ taught the Apostles....They in turn taught the brethren.....But like sooo many before them, they "Tune" all of it "Out"....

He even produced a video (sound only) of him speaking on the subject. If you thought Bouncing Bob Thiel was a poor speaker, wait till you hear this good old boy. 

If these Armstrognites took the amount of energy they expended on getting all pissy over some pictures, imagine what would happen if they rechanneled that energy into actually following that Jesus they ridicule yet know so little about.
