I had the privilege of sitting under Col. Thieme's ministry for the 1st 10 years of my Christian life. We gathered Monday through Friday and twice on Sunday to soak in the Word of God. It was a blessing to receive a firm foundation through his teaching.
Col Theime was a great man, a great scholar, a great Bible teacher, a great patriot and a great soldier. God used his ministry to change far more lives than any detractors/critics.
I have been raised 🆙 listening to Mr Thieme.My father had study with him for years. I believe alot of Christians are a bit scared of this man's teaching. Because he is so in debt in his teachings. Sure miss both my father and Mr Thieme. But his tapes and books are still around. Thank you mighty God for both. Amen
This man was and still is a gift from God to myself and untold others. What a blessing to America and mankind overall. Though I never had the opportunity to meet him on earth, I look forward to joining him in eternity.
Was my Pastor from 1972 to 2002, now his son Bobby is my pastor. I would not have the Love and Knowledge for the Lord today if it wasn't for the Colonel and his son. I truly believed the Lord led me to him and his teachings, for before the Colonel I was empty and searching, But I found no truth in other churches, so I gave up. Then not long after, the Lord Presented me with listening to one of his reel to reel tapes. 1/2 hour later into the tape, I KNEW I was home. I miss him! Thanks Col..
I listened to Col. Thiemes introductory tapes and many more while serving in the Marine Corps on the USS Midway. Over about a two year period, my friend and I would study, talk, smoke, argue, laugh and share our fears and hopes. I gained true respect for Bible Doctrine and disciplined study. Although I turned away from it and later had many reservations about much of what I had learned, I am bound to say that it helped me and I always felt deep respect for the Colonel. God bless him.
wow, I did a random search for col. bob thieme (couldn't even remember how his surname was written) just now. What a pleasant surprise to find these recordings. I listened to him back in the early 80's on cassette and was thoroughly entranced by his inimitable style. I had strayed away from my faith and praise to God that I have found it again. Well now for a good dose of doctrine...
I carry around that pamphlet "The Isolation Of Sin" with me all the time. The message is timeless, and the depth and insight this man had in the Word of God never ceases to amaze me. This was an eye opener for me. So grateful for wisdom, knowledge, understanding, and the Holy Spirit leading us to His truth when we need it!
His teachings changed my life. Teaching the bible from the Original Languages, line upon line, pre-cept upon pre-cept, Exegesis, Isogogics. What a revelation to learn the Word of God "Precisely" how it was given at the time of it's writings. I never knew I would ever be this close, or know the Lord as well as I do if it wasn't for the Colonel. I never met him, but I had and have the Greatest of respect and love for him. He worked his butt off for his congregation and the Lord. Genius!
I had a sister who introduced me to this pastor. I was not saved but did not know it. I found God through this godly man. I strayed from God but when I came back years later it is astonishing how much of Gods word I remembered because of his way of expressing the Word. Those who disagree with his teachings cannot have spent much time with him. They are hypocrites without grace. The main problem is spiritual death. Jesus said it is finished before he died physically. How many ways can a man die? If he died for our sins, and He did, it was not physical. What is left unless you make him a liar.
My Dad, Pastored a non- denominational church in CA. He ordered Colonel Thieme's tapes and used them to teach doctrinal truths to our congregation. I found several of Thieme's tapes after my Dad passed away in 2016. I wish I had a tape player that would play reel to reel tapes. My favorite lesson was about right lobe thinking & the greek words to understand that we metabolize doctrine from our left lobe filtering through our soul to our right lobe this was an absolute truth that stayed with me as a Christian.
Thank you for this posting… I accepted the Lord under Col Thieme’s ministry back in Nov 1984, listening to a tape flying back to Los Angeles. His devotion to teaching and love the Word of God was his love for his congregation. This short video has strengthen me in the trials that I’m going through right now. And I see clearly that it is nothing but a bump in the road. In comparison to the Colonels, near death experience and how he handled, it was such grace and calmness, for he knew that his life was completely in the hands of the Lord.
Nowhere and from no one has the greatest of all questions ever been approached more effectively than from Pastor Thiemes desk . . .”After salvation what?” The great power experiment of the hypo static union has never been put forth to this day, and needs to be . . . desperately! To know this great man for all of eternity and to perhaps ask the Lord upon our encounter one of my most pressing question after our chat would be . . . “where is pastor Thieme, we have a few things to go over . . .”
wow, are you guys all from Barachah Church? Your so blessed. I grew up listenting to this pastor from half way around the world and hes fantastic ! we all all blessed to have heard him.
just because your "camp" either anti-doctrine, atheistic, or the proposition of agnosticism doesn't make him wrong. I thoroughly enjoyed his teachings during my time in the USAF and beyond. from a Christians perspective is it not true that at the JSC the Bible clearly expresses blessing in a resurrection body? just because the Col. expresses it in a dogmatic manner doesn't mean it's not true. I lay odds that the same people who find it necessary to denigrate this man also hate Trump! lol. Bob theime laid an excellent scholarly foundation, which certainly has helped me in my life.
I listened to HOURS & HOURS of his lessons back in the early '70s. I've been to 2 of his seminars. I've attended a Theime satellite church. I will say that many of his followers are cold, proud, and even legalistic. However, Theime's teaching was for the most part VERY accurate, teaching the GREEK & HEBREW. He taught me that agape was not a feeling, but a loyal commitment. He loved in truth. What a contrast to the apostates today like Rick Warren, who deceive with smooth lips.
"no talking, no unnecessary movement. respect the word of God." and when you see him exposing the WORD using the original text on the pulpit--well discipline--like the FANTASTIC FOUR of Cory Aquino--behind him the giant projector where he write his exegesis, draw the illustrations--wow!
I am from Davao, and i had already red some of the books of Rb theime, i am also looking for some believers.. to have some bible conversation thru internet.
I studied and took notes on nearly 2,000 tapes, including the 1969 Basics, Protocol Plan of God, Faith Rest, and the first several hundred Spiritual Dynamics. I read RBT's books on Christian Integrity, Revelations, etc. In those years, I anticipated that his inevitable death would be as painful as the death of a family member. I walked away in 2004 when I finally accepted how elitist, self-absorbed, and deeply arrogant Thieme himself behaved. In 2009, I read Joe Wall's dissertation and...[cont.]
Linda, I'm a taper in Las Vegas, I barely started not even 2 years ago to study +BD, please tell me how the ministry is under Bobby? I wish some day i can come to Barachah church. You have no idea how much I'm looking forward to meet the Coronel.
Do you still live in Las Vegas? There's an excellent sound doctrinal teacher there!!! Pastor Olsen was ordained by the Colonel. www.uplandbiblechurch.org
dropping behind the pulpit, he went out with a whimper instead of a bang, ravaged by Alzheimer's. He took all the ignorance, logical fallacies, and nonsensical supernatural appeals of orthodox christianity, crafted a unique vocabulary, and sold his braying dogmatism as the voice of god while playing a deft verbal game of "it's not me, it's God the Holy Spirit". He portrayed himself as a suffering servant of a god who, let's be honest, is worthy neither of love nor respect. If Bob Thieme...[cont]
C.G. Hunt's thorough repudiation of Thieme's personal history. Since then, I have become an atheist. Bob Thieme's strong leadership talents and courage were wasted on christianity.

is a general in god's army, then christendom should lay down its arms and surrender immediately. I respect his WW2 service and nothing else. I hope his son Bobby finds the wisdom to escape the mind-forged manacle. After hearing one of Bobby's sermon tapes, I doubt that will ever happen. If you were a "taper" prior to Thieme's death and you feel (or THINK THINK THINK as "the Colonel" put it) that I have been unfair or unjust in my remarks, post a reply and we can discuss over e-mail.
@ChristKeep Ah, Rebound. First gate of the Protocol Plan of God, 7 to go. Not getting very far, are you? Yes, I John 1:9 instructs you to silently chant "Heavenly Father, I did X" when you've done a sinful deed or entertained a sinful thought. In any other context, such constantly negative self-talk makes you neurotic. But, it's all good because God the Holy Spirit created a human spirit at the point of salvation and writes true doctrine to the right lobe or "kardia" (in the Greek) of the soul.
This person is so correct! This man's teaching is a lie from the evil one himself! Do you think Jesus would have EVER spoken to His disciples this way?! Where is grace? Where is gentleness, as Paul exhorted Timothy to ALWAYS demonstrate to those to whom he would teach the Word of Truth? Please...please...find a true church! A true body of Christ! My prayers are all over you who are still involved.
Bob Thieme made a living teaching lies to gullible parents and their children. He used in-group/out-group language such as "Berachah Battalion" and "right pastor" to make damn clear that if you disagreed with him, then you were probably wrong. Occasionally, he'd cover ass with false humility such as "You like the old tapes because I was stupid! [And racist. And elitist.]" Thieme was a superb example of christianity carried to its extremes. And now, as a corpse, he's never been a better teacher.
I have been raised 🆙 listening to Mr Thieme.My father had study with him for years. I believe alot of Christians are a bit scared of this man's teaching. Because he is so in debt in his teachings.

I was blessed to be a student of Col Theime.. Col Theime had a great love for the Lord and is now face to face with Him.

I grew up with the Col. his biblical lessons walk with me everyday of my life.
Best Bible teacher I ever heard
Sure could use a face to face teaching with him right now. He spoke of these times we are facing.

This Man's Teaching Changed My Life.
R.I.P. Colonel! May your Ministry and our brothers and sisters in Christ continue to grow in Grace.
my dad loved him, we listened by tape for years, miss him and dad who passed one year after the col.
my dad would listen to this every morning during my childhood, about 1995ish

Wonderful servant of the only true "Celebrity of the Universe" Jesus Christ.
Greatest ever Pastor
Nice tribute...hey my favorite book.."Faith Rest"
A great teacher....
Daniel 1 of the most amazing Men in Biblical History
few are the once finding it...
faith + no works = Salvation
I am from Davao, and i had already red some of the books of Rb theime, i am also looking for some believers.. to have some bible conversation thru internet.
Nice remembering
Those who out of ignorance willfully call this Pastor-Teacher all sorts of names just to gain undue relevance, need to re-examine their theology
