Bible News Prophecy with Dr Bob Thiel
Bible News Prophecy with Dr Bob Thiel Scoffers, Sorrows, and the Weather Warnings of Prophecy Continuing Church of God 52 Earthquakes, Troubles, and the Beginning of Sorrows In this episode of the Bible News Prophecy Program, hosts Steve Dupuie and Dr. Bob Thiel discuss whether people mock the things Jesus prophesied, especially warnings about earthquakes, famines, pestilences, and troubles. Dr. Thiel begins with Matthew 24 and Mark 13, saying Jesus described these events as the “beginning of sorrows.” He then points to recent earthquake reports involving Venezuela, Japan, and Northern California, presenting them as examples of the kinds of troubles he believes align with biblical prophecy. Mockery, Anti-Christian Criticism, and Prophetic Response Steve asks how tragic earthquakes relate to people mocking Christians, and Dr. Thiel explains that after he wrote about the Venezuela earthquakes and said those affected were in his prayers, an anti-Christian or apostate website criticized him and mocked his use of Mark 13:8. Dr. Thiel says the site dismissed the prophetic meaning of earthquakes by appealing to seismometer counts and normal fluctuation. He argues that increased seismometers do not explain the devastation of major quakes, and he connects the mockery itself to biblical warnings about deception and scoffers in the last days. Peter’s Warning About Scoffers in the Last Days Dr. Thiel then turns to 2 Peter 3, reading and discussing the passage that warns scoffers will come in the last days, walking according to their own desires and saying that all things continue as they always have. He applies that passage to people who dismiss prophecy and treat modern troubles as ordinary events without spiritual meaning. He emphasizes Peter’s teaching that God’s timing is not human timing, that the Lord is longsuffering, and that the day of the Lord will come unexpectedly. For Dr. Thiel, these verses show that mockery of prophecy is itself part of the prophetic pattern. Heat Waves, Europe, and Weather as a Warning The conversation shifts from earthquakes to weather. Dr. Thiel refers to his earlier book 2012 and the Rise of the Secret Sect, where he wrote about odd weather patterns, natural disasters, and the beginning of sorrows. He cites reports about record-breaking European heat, including extreme temperatures in France and heat-related deaths in Spain, and frames these events as additional warning signs. He argues that the repeated breaking of heat records should not simply be dismissed as normal, but should be considered in light of biblical prophecy and calls to repentance. Amos, Calamity, and Weather-Related Blessings or Curses Steve asks what scriptures skeptics should consider, and Dr. Thiel answers by turning to passages from Amos. He quotes Amos 3 to argue that God is involved in calamity and reveals His purposes through His servants, the prophets. He then discusses Amos 4, where God withholds rain, sends rain on one city and not another, and uses agricultural troubles such as blight, mildew, and locusts as warnings to people who still do not return to Him. Dr. Thiel uses these passages to argue that weather is not as random as many believe, but can function as a divine warning. A Call to Pay Attention and Repent In his closing comments, Dr. Thiel says scoffers ignore what God has prophesied about weather and refuse to repent. He warns listeners not to adopt the same disregard for Jesus’ words or biblical prophecy. While he acknowledges that many people will continue to see unusual weather as ordinary natural variation, he argues that severe, weird, and odd weather patterns are part of God’s warning message. Steve closes by thanking Dr. Thiel and directing listeners to BibleNewsProphecy.net for more interviews, articles, audio content, and Continuing Church of God resources.
