Bob Thiel: His Magical God Causes Heat Wave Over US After DOMA Overturned

Bob Thiel, the non-ordained self-appointed false prophet of the Continuing Ed Church of God is back jumping to conclusions about his magical god today.

Thiel thinks that the heat wave that hit the US this weekend was god being really pissed that DOMA was over turned and gay couples can get married.  I find that laughable for nothing more than that the ,COG's never  valued the sanctity of marriage that much anyway.  The Church, instigated by Rod Meredith, actively broke up thousands of loving couples because of Herb's idiotic remarriage doctrines.  Then we had the ministers and ordained men hopping from bed to bed in their congregations.  We had BOTH of the top church leaders having illicit sex with daughters and coed's.

Thiel writes:

A massive heat wave has hit the USA shortly after the US Supreme Court overturned the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA) to support the homosexual agenda.

30 June 2013

Temperatures in Las Vegas shot up to 115 degrees on Saturday afternoon, just two degrees shy of an all-time record, as the Desert Southwest continued to stagger under a relentless heat wave…

Large swaths of California sweltered under extreme heat warnings, which are expected to last into Tuesday night — and maybe even longer.
In Southern California, Palm Springs peaked at 122 while the mercury in Lancaster set a record at 111, according to the L.A. Times…
Phoenix hit 119 by mid-afternoon, breaking the record for June 29 that was set in 1994.  http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2013/06/29/heat-west-temperature-record-high/2475701/

Could the extreme weather be at all related to the growing legal acceptance of homosexual marriage and other abominations in the USA?

 If you are going to attribute the heat to a magical god then perhaps the blame needs to be directed to towards the false prophets Gerald Flurry and Dave Pack who have lied through their teeth lately and who preach heretical bullshit.  I think God is more pissed at that than the gay couple down the street who have been together for 27 years getting married.

Michael Venish Starts His New Web Site

Michael Vensih, a former Restored Church of God employee and part of the inner circle recently left RCG and stated exposing the lies of Dave Pack

Venish then became interested in Christ's Knock (shut down) led by Lou Maschio (Knockers Church of God as many refer to it as.)  Soon after Venish started collaborating with Maschio, Maschio handed over the Christ Knock's web site and its small group of followers to Venish and walked away.

He has started his own site and is now taking contributions: The Lamp: Revealing the Way for the People of God

Most, if not all of us came out of a church where, a “work” was being proclaimed as God's Work. After God closed down the Worldwide Church of God– because it became the work of men, we now have various groups – Churches of God – led by those who supposedly fled the “apostasy”, to begin their own brand of the truth, which they claim, is associated with the patriarch that died. Among these groups, certain demagogues rose up, the principle ones being, Mr. Gerald Flurry and Mr. David Pack, who are leading a vulnerable people, even further away from what Jesus Christ established as His church, and through His original apostles.

God in His wisdom, calls His people sheep, because sheep flock, they want to belong, to be a part of something, that is why there are clubs, fraternities, societies, associations, organizations and churches. Sheep need leadership. But all too often, they want to crown their leader, place him on a pedestal, give him a title of some sort, or proclaim, “he leads our work!” The desire to belong is not wrong, we are to fellowship where possible, but the thing that is wrong, is not learning from the mistakes of the past, as well as what we can see today, some brethren elevating men to positions God and Jesus Christ never ordained. I know some leaders in some churches, claiming to themselves exalted titles.

I don't want anyone to crown me, nor give me a title. If that is what you want, I'm the wrong person. As a servant of Christ, my responsibility is simple, it is to help God's people– those who are willing– to achieve the joy of their salvation, to make entrance into the Kingdom of God. I do not believe, I am to deliver a “KNOCK”, neither am I “A VOICE”, I have my own voice which emanates from my own throat.

 As I wrote to you in a letter, I was intrigued by what Mr. Maschio was doing, in reaching out to our scattered brethren. I also said, “we have a common goal, which is our important responsibility, to make it as the Bride of Christ, ready for His return”. I offered help in the form of sermons to assist him, in feeding those whom God had called, those people he was taking care of. 

It was not my intention, to be caught up in the circumstances that we find ourselves in today, nor was it my purpose to lead, guide or direct any church or “work”. However, be that as it may, I do not draw back, nor shrink from any challenge to assist and to teach those with the Spirit of God, who want me as their minister.

Flurry Cult Youth Camp: Pray Before You Play Basketball It's A Sport Easy To Get Frustrated In

Summer camp with the Flurry cult in Edmond OK.  

Will the youth be instructed this summer not to fornicate 

so that no babies will be born before they flee to Petra?  

Why are they even doing camp when they should be packing to flee?

In respoinse to a comment that followers the online video, Grant Turgeon sums up all that is wrong with the Philadelphia Church of God:

COGWA's Britten Taylor On Jesus....Oops, Sorry - On The Law

I was checking out the COGWA web site tonight just to see how they talk about Jesus, the god they claim to follow.  As usual there is not a whole to about Jesus, his miracles and healing of unconverted broken people, no mention of Jesus breaking bread with prostitutes and the outcasts of society, nothing about the parables filled with metaphors about being there for the other, nothing about unconditional grace, nothing about rest in Jesus, not much of anything about Jesus.  There was however, LOTS and LOTS of law.  Myriads of lists of things you should not and cannot do.  Rules and regulations abound.  Typical Armstrongite proof-texting abounds, but no Jesus.

Britten writes:

The Ten Commandments are some pretty simple rules of life. In fact, Jesus taught that these are laws of love—loving God with all your heart and loving your neighbor as yourself. They were designed by our Creator to be very basic and easy-to-remember rules that would help us live the right way and enjoy the resulting blessings. But where are we today with regard to the most fundamental of God’s laws?

Here’s a test for you. Can you, right now, list the 10 Commandments? If you can, you’re a rare person!

In a 2007 survey of 1,000 Americans—including churchgoers—80 percent could name “two all-beef patties” as the main ingredients of a Big Mac, but only 60 percent knew “Thou shalt not kill” was one of the 10 Commandments!

Less than half, 45 percent, knew that “honor thy father and mother” was a commandment, but 62 percent knew that a Big Mac has a pickle!

Forty-three percent of those surveyed could recall that Peter and Bobby were characters on the old Brady Bunch TV show, but only 34 percent recalled that “remember the Sabbath” and “do not make false idols” were among the 10 Commandments.

This level of ignorance is amazing and, I must say, immensely disrespectful to God!

Better yet, how about asking a COGWA member to tell you about Jesus, who he was and what he did.  The level of ignorance will be amazing, and I must say, immensely disrespectful to God and Jesus.
