Crackpot Prophet Comes Out!

Our very own self-appointed prophet to the Church of God has finally come out of the closet! Well, not THAT closet, but the Elijah closet.

God's greatest gift to the Church of God and humanity is the Great Beto Bwana to Africa and 199 Caucasians was perturbed yesterday that Gerald Flurry claimed that Herbert Armstrong was the end time Elijah who took the gospel to the world.

This got the self-righteous prophet's homeopathic underwear into a major organic twist! How dare Flurry claim HWA was Elijah when I, Beto Bob am the Elijah foretold to come! How dare he! Seriously, how dare he!!

Beto Bob writes:

Herbert W. Armstrong did restore various doctrinal truths to the COG, but Herbert W. Armstrong did not restore all things–though he did claim to restore at least 18. But, according to the Bible, could Herbert W. Armstrong have been the Elijah to come (Matthew 17)?

Let’s start with Malachi 4:5-6, but as shown in the Jewish Publication Society translation:

Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet

Before the coming Of the great and terrible day of the LORD.

And he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children,

And the heart of the children to their fathers;

Lest I come and smite the land with utter destruction.

Notice that the Elijah is to come just before the great and terrible day of the LORD, and if he did not come, utter destruction would occur.

Herbert W. Armstrong died in January 16, 1986.

I imagine you already see where this is going. HWA is dead and the church is still here and the world is in a horrible mess and needs to be warned by someone. Hum, I wonder who that could be???? 

Did you know that even Herbert Armstrong foretold of a certain Elijah to come:

The “very end” of the Church age was not over 35 years ago! The 6000 years has NOT yet been fulfilled. Since the “very end of the Church age” has not happened, and Herbert W. Armstrong died decades ago, his writings support that there must be another Elijah. And he was referring to an individual in the Mystery of the Ages.

And, to back up that claim Beto Bob trots out less than credible Dibar Apartian as an authority on Elijah's.  Beto even drags Aaron Dean into the mix where he claimed an Elijah was yet to come.

That being said, sometimes Herbert W. Armstrong did think that he may have fulfilled the Elijah role, but he told the late Dibar Apartian (who told me) that he was NOT the Elijah. Dibar Apartian did not believe that Herbert W. Armstrong was the Elijah when we discussed this several times and he agreed with me about this. Furthermore, essentially on his deathbed, Herbert W. Armstrongadmitted to his closest aide, Aaron Dean (who told me this multiple times) that there could be an Elijah to come after he died. 

 

Combining what Herbert W. Armstrong wrote in The Mystery of the Ages and the length of time since his death demonstrates that Herbert W. Armstrong could not have been the final prophesied Elijah.

 Beto continues

Since the Bible does teach that there will be an ‘Elijah’ who is alive right before Jesus returns (Malachi 4:5-6), thus it is not possible that Herbert W. Armstrong was the prophesied final Elijah.
Now, presuming Jesus will return within the next couple of decades, then that ‘Elijah’ would need to be alive now. And he would be part of the church that places the highest priority on the truth.
Yet, most Christians seemingly refuse to accept that.

Since HWA died  36 years ago and the world is still continuing on and the Churches of God are shrinking in size, this obviously means there is still an Elijah to come! Even more obvious to everyone is that Gerald Flurry, Dave Pack, and most certainly Gerald Weston are not fulfilling the Elijah role, this can only leave one person for that and it has to be Ron Weinland Bob Thiel!

No other Church of God in the entire history of Christianity is doing a work as powerful as the improperly named "continuing" Church of "god" is. No one, particularly that pipsqueak Gerald Weston who made fun of Beto.

Beto writes:

We in the Continuing Church of God are regularly restoring more truth about church history, Jesus, the Bible, doctrine, and prophecy. And we have done this more (and in more languages), by far, than any other group in the 21st century (COG or otherwise for that matter). Plus we have restored important truth about why God created anything and His plan for each human.

Beto claims he and his cult were written about in the Bible to rise up in the end times.

Was that supposed to happen? 

 

Yes. 

 

Notice something that Daniel wrote:

4 “But you, Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book until the time of the end; many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall increase.” (Daniel 12:4) 

 

Consider also the admonition of the Apostle Peter:

18 … grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. (2 Peter 3:18)

No other Church of God in this horrific time of the end is growing in grace and knowledge as much as the improperly named "continuing" Church of "god" is. Not even Dave Pack's endless visions by his god can measure up to the dreams and nightmares that come daily to Beto. New knowledge and truths are being revealed constantly to God's most mighty man who is the ONLY real follower of God leading a COG today.

Also consider that any who have already died are not relevant regarding all things to be restored just before the Day of the Lord–only one alive then (who would also be alive now) can possibly fulfill the Elijah role to increase knowledge and restore all things. It is not that others cannot add to knowledge, but what was to be restored in the end has to come from someone who is a real follower of God who is alive at the end. Growth of Christian knowledge did not end by January 16, 1986.

Beto then claims that since he is the only real follower of God left in the Church today that it is only natural that he will be one of the two witless witnesses, Laura Weinland being the second. She is the second witless witness because she can't be the first one as women cannot rule over men.

Consider also that the Bible indicates that it is likely that the ‘Elijah’ will be one of the two witnesses. 

 

Since Herbert Armstrong was not a prophet, Elijah was a prophet (1 Kings 18:36), the Elijah to come is to be a prophet (Malachi 4:5), and the two witnesses will be prophets, Herbert W. Armstrong was not the Elijah to come.

Beto also made a video where he hilariously tried to prove he is Elijah. I won't link to the video here, but he did say this about it, and as usual, it is all about him. No Jesus stuff, but endless Beto stuff.

21st Century Elijah 

Was John the Baptist the prophesied Elijah or at least a type of Elijah? Is there an Elijah to come? Have Sabbatarians been teaching this a long time? What were 18 truths that Herbert W. Armstrong said God had him restore? Was anything to be restored in the last days, consistent with Daniel 12:4 and Matthew 17:11? Was God supposed to restore dreams and prophets in the last days? Did the Worldwide Church of God teach such would happen again? Have we seen signs of Acts 2:17-18 in the Continuing Church of God? Is Bob Thiel the final Elijah or one of the two witnesses? Why or why not? Has there been the restoration of important truths in the CCOG? Is the CCOG at least setting the foundation for the 21st century Elijah? Dr. Thiel gives information relating to all of that in this sermon.

Since 99.99 % of the Church of God ignores Beto, he lashes out and calls everyone Laodiceans because they refuse to acknowledge him as the greatest COG leader ever to exist. As Laodiceans, they are doomed to suffer in the tribulation because they refuse to see how great he is.

Sadly, just as many would not hear Elijah’s nor John the Baptist’s messages, relatively few will pay much attention to the end time Elijah as well. 

 

That is not a surprise as most Christians in the end times were to be Laodicean, and Jesus warned the Laodiceans since they would not ‘get with the program,’ that they would be punished (Revelation 3:14-18). 

 

Of course, if you are willing to believe the truth and do what the Bible teaches, that does not have to include you.

It is appalling that here we are close to 2023 and we are still being subjected to all of these self-appointed liars and false prophets in our midst. Never has the church seen so many liars claiming visions and dreams from their gods as we are now. New revelations flow daily from these narcissistic men and we are expected to believe them. 

I can state as 100% FACT that Bob Thiel is NOT Elijah and will NOT be one of the two witnesses. 

LCG Members Warned Against Expressing Their "Opinions"

 

Here is another doozy of a Friday Night Smackdown for LCG members.

Apparently, there are some rather rebellious LCG members who dared to have opinions about LCG leadership. One guess is that these opinions are NOT highly favorable of the leadership.

How dare members dare to think! How dare members hold the leadership accountable. Those that do are deceitful human beings with carnal minds.

LCG and other COG's can't understand why people are leaving their churches, this is why! God forbid if a church member dared to use their God-given brain to form some logical thoughts through observations and experiences.

But please, have a profitable Sabbath!

Our Opinions or Christ’s Mind: How many times have you heard or made comments like, “Here’s how I see it,” “Here’s what I think,” or “Here’s how it should have been done.” Often these comments are directed at people in leadership positions—even in the Church. Moses was criticized by others (Numbers 16). Peter differed sharply with Jesus (Matthew 16:21–23). In both cases, those expressing critical opinions did not recognize the real source of their negative thoughts and actions. Before we share our “different” opinions, we need to remember God’s warning, “My thoughts are not your thoughts, nor are your ways My ways” (Isaiah 55:8). We also need to remember the scriptural admonitions, “the carnal mind is enmity against God” and His ways—including His government (Romans 8:7) and “the heart is deceitful above all things” (Jeremiah 17:9). Before we begin spreading around our opinions, we need to develop a godly perspective that reflects the mind of Jesus Christ (Philippians 2:5) that we find outlined in Philippians 4:8.
Have a profitable Sabbath, Douglas S. Winnail

LCG has another outstanding week of presentations to the unconverted

 

After last week's disastrous attendance for Living Church of God "gospel" presentations,

These cities provided a potential field ripe for the harvest of 3,433,115 souls with only 68 people showing up. Of that 68 attendees at least 40-50 of them were LCG members padding the audience. One presentation had ZERO guests! More Record Shattering LCG Presentations

LCG presenters stepped up to the plate this week and broke all records for attendance. With two locations holding presentations, with a potential audience of 290,170, they were able to have 15 people attend. Of those 15 at least 1/2 to 3/4 were LCG members padding the meeting locations.

15 people! The work marches forward in POWER!

Things Bob Thiel never thinks about

Hey Mr. Bob, what cha doin'? Have you had any of these sweet dreams lately?

Crackpot COG Prophet Suffers Another Prophetic Setback As CERN Accelerator May Be Shut Down For A While

 

We need another particle accelerator. Don’t let these 5 myths fool you

Our very own Beto Bwana Bob was seen crying at the local Denny's today as news broke that the CERN Accelerator in Switzerland may need to shut down for a while due to the current energy crisis in Europe. Beto's dreams of coming nuclear war have been postponed yet again! 

CERN is considering 'idling' the Large Hadron Collider in response to Europe's energy crisis

Beto Bob has been hyperventilating for several years now that the CERN Accelerator was a sure sign of Armageddon. Beto Bob foresees the CERN Accelerator being used as a tool to design fusion bombs to kill Americans and British Israelite peoples.

Instead of some rogue “mad scientist,” suppose that the European consortium behind CERN will decide that it needs to develop such weapons for defensive and possibly offensive purposes.

Then suppose that they, consistent with various biblical prophecies (cf. Isaiah 10:5-12; Daniel 11:39) decide to use it against the USA and/or its British-descended allies.

Beto Bob went into an orgasmic mind warp when he went to see Dan Brown's movie, Angels and Demons which provided confirmation on the evils of the accelerator, at least in the warped mind of Beto Bob.

In May of 2009, Dan Brown’s movie, Angels & Demons, had antimatter captured from part of CERN ‘s Large Hadron Collider. Now it has happened because of the LHC:

In the movie, which I saw in Arroyo Grande (California), antimatter played an important role. In Angels & Demons. someone stole captured antimatter from CERN’s Large Hadron Collider on the behalf of one trying to be an antipope. Many considered antimatter only existing in science fiction and that the portrayal in the movie was impossible. Yet, the collection of anti-matter can now be considered to be a science fact–and can exist for significant amounts of time (it is my understanding that CERN stopped holding it after 17 minutes, not that 17 minutes is the limit to its existence).

Imagine being such a mind-boggling prophet, which was foreordained by God to rise up in the end times, that you need to get your "visions" from conspiracy-laden Dan Brown novels and a B-rated Hollywood movie.  How truly pathetic! Garbage novels equal garbage theologians.

Being the pathetic D-class prophet of the church it's pretty sad the lengths Beto Bwana Bob sinks to so he can scare his followers and gullible public. Beto Bob never tells anyone about China and Japan building even larger accelerators. It's the European one that concerns him. Since the Swiss speak German and have Germanic blood they will in turn use this accelerator in the end times to obliterate the United States and other British Israelite nations. After all, it's a German thing, remember? Pure unadulterated pig slop.

Being the pathetic swishy-washy non-committal prophet that he is, he weasels his way out with this:

Now if the Large Hadron Collider does have military potential, which I have long indicated that it does, all should understand that it is likely that the Europeans and not the Americans will benefit from it.

Historically, humans have seen that large physics projects tend to produce military weaponry.

The Large Hadron Collider is helping Europe get to the point it will have the technology it will need to temporarily ‘rule’ the world. There have been interesting developments from it so far and more are expected.

Presuming we see certain prophetic events unfold, I expect that the USA will be conquered by the end of 2028. Or sooner.

From intelligence that I have been able to gather from Swiss sources, the CERN people have their sights set on Grover Beach, CA as their first target when they start destroying the United States. They know that God's most superfantastical prophet lives there and must destroy him first before he becomes one of the two witless witnesses walking the streets of Jerusalem (Laura Weinland being the other one).

PS: Beto Bob sees as further proof of the evilness of this accelerator is that it has 3 "6's" in it logo.  666 = Beast Power (the COG bogeyman).
