I Am The First Legitimate True Prophet In Centuries!




For several years now this web site and others have mocked and ridiculed the self-appointed prophet Bob Thiel.  Even Rod Meredith and the Living Church of God have taken called him out on his silliness.  In spite of this Theil still incessantly struggles on to try and impress people about his prophethood status. Thiel's huge issues is than 99.999999999999999% of the Caucasian race ignores his drivel.  The only people that are halfway interested in him are some minuscule groups in Africa.  Even many of those are groups of people looking for American churches for an easy handout.

Stinging for constantly being ignored when his message is supposed to be so vitally important in this end times Thiel is having to "prove" once again why he is a true prophet of his god.  In order to do this he has so denounce many other people claiming to be prophets.  Thiel also seems to be believe that he is the only one in the COG who is able to discern who is a prophet and who is not.  Three guess as to who is....

For quite a few years, I have denounced a variety of false and self-appointed prophets at the www.cogwriter.com website and have long had an article titled Why Be Concerned About False and Heretical Leaders? From time to time, I also get emails from people who believe that they are some type of prophet or one of the two witnesses or have some special prophetic message. Sadly, because of many false self-appointed prophets, many in the Church of God have dismissed that God actually could have someone in the office of prophet at this time.
In Thiel's latest blog post where he seeks to legitimize himself, he quotes from Herbert Armstrong and Leroy Neff as reliable sources in discerning prophets.  Leroy Neff???????  HWA??????  Neither of these men had any qualifications to do such a thing, but then Theil is also incapable of discernment.

Thiel writes trying to prove since he is a little insignificant man who has no theological training,  is NOT a great speaker and does not have a large church that these are signs he is one.  God chose him.
A true prophet would not need to be from a major theological institution, have the most magnanimous personality, be a great speaker, or have a large or impressive Church, but would be the type willing to meet in members’ homes. He also does not have to have had a ministerial background. God chooses who His prophets are. Notice something from the Old Testament:
14 Then Amos answered, and said to Amaziah: “I was no prophet, Nor was I a son of a prophet, But I was a sheepbreeder And a tender of sycamore fruit. 15 Then the Lord took me as I followed the flock, And the Lord said to me, ‘Go, prophesy to My people Israel.’ (Amos 7:14-15)
Then to give himself an easy out, he compares himself to Paul who had failed then prophecies:

It also should be noted that while the Apostle Paul considered himself to be a prophet, not all of his speculative predictions were accurate. He once claimed:
10 I perceive that this voyage will end with disaster and much loss, not only of the cargo and ship, but also our lives (Acts 27:10).

The only problem in quoting this is that Paul was just making a comment, as anyone else does when face with a large issues ahead.  A prophecy by definition involves direct revelation from a "divine" source." 

Such messages typically involve divine inspiration, interpretation, or revelation of conditioned events to come (cf. divine knowledge). 

Causal off-the-cuff comments are not prophecy.  Can Thiel truly be this naive?  Oh wait, he has no theological education, what more should I have expected?

Then taking the wounded martyr status he admits no one listens to him or ever will.

Truly, most people will not listen to a true prophet of God in this age. And, even when God grants power to His two witnesses, most in the world will not only not listen to them, they will be deceived enough to support an army that will fight against the returning Jesus Christ (Revelation 16:13-14; 19:11-19)!

Then to further legitimate himself, Thiel trots out Gaylyn Bonjour once again.

A true prophet is under God’s authority. A true New Testament prophet has had hands laid upon him/her and/or received special anointing. You can not anoint yourself or come up with doctrine that contradicts the Bible (cf. Revelation 22:18-19) like at least three self-declared supposed COG “prophets” (Gerald Flurry, William Dankenbring, and Ronald Weinland) and false predictors (like Harold Camping and David Pack) have falsely done)–”Scripture cannot be broken” (John 10:35).

Thus far, none who have ever contacted me and claimed to have been a prophet of some type have had hands laid upon them to give them the type of anointing that a true prophet of God would likely have had in this church age if God was selecting them. Hence, if the anointing from a true minister has not happened to you, understand that I do not now accept that you are a prophet or one of the two witnesses. Laying hands upon yourself is not enough.
 Then Thiel makes another mind numbing silly comment.  According to Thiel his receiving of the status of prophet was so unique that it probably had not occurred for precious mutiple centuries!


In my case, in November/December 2011, I prayed that if I truly had a prophetic role from God that He would have something happen during a planned mid-December 2011 trip to Charlotte, North Carolina to confirm it or deny it if that were His will. As it turned out, on 12/15/2011 hands were laid upon me in Charlotte by ordained minister Gaylyn Bonjour. He prayed that I would be granted a “double-portion” of God’s Holy Spirit. He told me that he had not ever done this before but he felt that it was reminiscent of the time that the prophetic and ecclesiastical leadership mantle passed from the Prophet Elijah to Elisha (2 Kings 2:9-13). This minister had been unaware that I had prayed that God would have me anointed or somehow identified for a prophetic role on that mid-December 2011 trip if that were His plan for me and I had never discussed my possible prophetic role with him prior to this anointing. This 12/15/11 anointing appears to be the first biblically-appropriate prophetic anointing in the Church of God in many decades, if not many multiple centuries. And the legitimacy of this anointing has been proven by subsequent events–though many do not seem to understand how God works at times. And yes, I will add that I believe that I do have the appropriate prophetic fruits that Jesus discussed (Matthew 7:15-20) and that those truly interested in the truth can see this if they truly wish to prayfully look into this.
For centuries no prophet has emerged like Bob Thiel. He's one of a kind!  He is so incredibly special that the the angels in heaven rejoiced at his raising up as prophet! Even God and Jesus Christ shouted glad hosannas!  The earth will be saved at the hands of Bob.

God's Greatest COG Prophet EVER Is Incensed Obama Did Not Say Thanks To God And Is "Disturbing" Because He Is Watching Football Today



What would the Church of God be without all of its stark raving mad false prophets?  The last 70 some years of Armstrongism would have been boring as hell if it had not been for these mentally deranged lunatics!

Today, God's most highly favored prophet in this dispensation is back online incensed that Americans are enjoying football on Thanksgiving Day.  Not only is the false prophet bitter about football but he has to find anything negative about the day - which is typical of Amstrongism in its ability to duck any enjoyment in life out of EVERYTHING!

Today is national holiday in the USA called Thanksgiving. And despite certain claims, its specific origins are not pagan. But, of course, no Christian needs to celebrate national holidays like it.  And the Bible does condemn gluttony."

"One thing that I have noticed on the day called Thanksgiving by those in the USA, is when I have been at many places than the home I lived in, American football has been playing on television.
For many, other than food and family, football is a major focus of the Thanksgiving holiday."
He then has to smack down President Obama for not saying thank-you to God today and for watching football.  Regardless of ones opinion about Obama, Thiel's silliness reaches a new depth of depravity:

Notice the following:
Nov 22, 2012
For the fourth straight year, the Thanksgiving resolution from President Barack Obama fails to actually thank God — which is the fundamental reason why Thanksgiving is observed…
But, to President Obama, Thanksgiving is about food and football, according to his official remarks as distributed by the White House.
“For us, like so many of you, this is a day full of family and friends; food and football. It’s a day to fight the overwhelming urge to take a nap – at least until after dinner,” Obama said. http://www.lifenews.com/2012/11/22/4th-straight-year-obama-thanksgiving-resolution-doesnt-thank-god/
Whether or not the US president will publicly and officially thank God later today remains an open question. But the fact that Barack Obama did not do that in many past thanksgiving addresses, but instead advocates football is disturbing. Now the fact is that I have never considered that Barack Obama was a real Christian, but what about real Christians today?
Then he gets into his usual tripe that Paul and John the Baptist would not like football:

While I have even heard some people thank God for football, it is not a sport that I believe that the God of love would condone.

The person that Jesus stated was greater than all others born of women (Matthew 11:11), John the Baptist taught:
14 Do violence to no man (Luke 3:14, KJV)
The Apostle Paul taught:
Love does no harm to a neighbor (Romans 13:9).
What do sports like American football and boxing do? Even if played according to all of its rules, American tackle football is evil because it actually physically harms many its participants

Is it any wonder Armstrongism is rapidly disintegrating when these asshats run off at the mouth?  All I can say is THANK-YOU!! T/e more dumb things you say the weirder Armstrongism looks to  he world.

COG Prophet Saves Thanksgiving From Islamic Turkeys





We can all now enjoy Thanksgiving once again.  Between James Malm snarling that it is a pagan holiday and other COG members snipping that Butterball turkeys have been prayed over by Muslims, whats a poor Armstrongite to do??????  Thanksgiving is the ONLY holiday in which COG members feel "normal" in the eyes of the world.  Take that away and there's nothing left to enjoy.

Prophet/Chief Overseer and future end-time witless witness Bob Thiel has now come out saying that it's OK to eat a turkey prayed over by a Muslim imam as long as it doesn't offend you or your hypercritical fellow church members.

A while back, a reader sent me a link to the following item from 2011 that was somewhat true then:
America’s favorite meal may be secretly dedicated to Allah
Customer service representatives from Butterball, one of America’s most popular Turkey brands, confirmed to WND that the company’s whole turkeys are – without being labeled as such – slaughtered according to Islamic “halal” standards…Multiple phone representatives at Butterball confirmed the turkeys are slaughtered according to halal standards, and one named Tracy (she declined to give her last name) further confirmed the words of Islamic dedication are spoken over the birds. Has your Thanksgiving turkey been sacrificed to idols? 
But then there was a change in 2012:
Butterball’s Thanksgiving turkeys won’t be served with a side dish of Islamic dogma this year.
The company has announced that its turkeys are not slaughtered according to Islam’s halal dietary principles, which say that animals should be killed while conscious and amid the sound of Islamic prayers.
The theological turkey turnabout came after an online protest on the topic last year threatened to sour the public’s taste for Butterball-branded products. Butterball Disavows Islamic Turkeys
Perhaps I should add that the first article also states that Butterball was not the only company that has allowed Islamic prayers over turkeys (there also may be Islamic prayers over other slaughtered animals as well). It should be understood that Jewish rabbis also provide their approval/blessing on various ‘kosher’ foods and ‘halal’ is somewhat of an equivalent in the Islamic world.
The reason I said basically, as can be seen, is that if this somewhat would offend an acquaintance, then perhaps one should not eat such meat in a manner that would make him/her stumble. Otherwise, eating meat that in other ways is proper to eat is fine.

Worrying about whether an imam has prayed over your turkey is about as silly as worrying that a rabbi prayed over your turkey making it Kosher.  Neither of these have absolutely any relevance to anyone that is not Jewish or a Muslim. Followers of Armstrongism focus upon some of the silliest things and make them into major issues.  What these whinny people shoudl do, and this includes Thiel and Malm, is get off their over-indulged asses and feed the homeless and poor this Thanksgiving.  Perhaps being a "christian" this one day might soften their hardened bitter hearts.
