More Hypocrisy From Restored Church of God



Dave Pack has been very vocal over the years lambasting various COG's for giving money to various Christian charities or for helping people out after natural disasters.  Armstrongism has always held a belief that it was not important to help those suffering because God was either punishing them, or God would eventually take care of them in the world tomorrow.  It was a waste of money that should be used to further the "gospel" instead of helping those in need.

Pack has attacked UCG over Lifenets and other contributions they have made to disaster victims.  He lambasted WCG for helping people after Katrina and other COG's for tsunami relief.  Pack thinks it is wrong to work with pagan Christians in their humanitarian efforts.

Flash forward to his latest back slapping defecting minister and his wife, Vidal Wachuku.  Vidal and his wife have been active participants and fund raisers for Relief Network Ministries.  They have funneled their own money and helped raise money to take care of the less fortunate in Africa.  RNN does a lot of work helping drill wells.

Engr. Metibaiye suggested that we include the idea of Poverty Reduction in our conception of solutions proposed to them for partnership or small grants to RNM, Inc. Our Abuja representative, Mr. Vidal Wachuku, a corporate law attorney, accompanied us. Relief Networks

 Not only did Vidal and his wife give lots of money to relief efforts he also is a member of various community organizations that  worldly. If TRUE Christians are supposed to separate themselves from the world, why is Vidal allowed to be a part of these groups?  Is it for the prestige it will bring to Dave and his small cult?  Or, has Dave put the breaks on the Wachuku's community volunteerism and donations?

Vidal is a card carrying member of Rotary International:

Jul 24, 2006 (Daily Trust/All Africa Global Media via COMTEX) -- Barrister Vidal Wachuku, was installed as the district gove-rnor of district 9130 of the Rotary Club in Abuja at the weakened. The guest speaker at the occasion Enyinnaya Nwauche, said "we should inculcate service to others in our children, because a civil society must be protected and natured, for the society to grow. Our public service in Nigeria is not well natured, because we do not have the personal feel to serve. Our NGOs and civil society are believed not be honest." 


At 8:36AM on 26 December 2007, IPDG District 9130, Prince Vidal N. Wachuku wrote: I was challenged to meet such a determined and focused young adult who dared to thread where Lions dread. I say this in light of the unfortunate negative publicity given Nigeria by the Western Media. I'm sure Brittney would today be one of the greatest ambassadors of Nigeria having come and seen things for herself at such a tender age.She has demonstrated that she has what it takes to succeed in life. I therefore wish her all the best on her way to the top! Brittney, it sure was a pleasure meeting you.

Then all of a sudden, BANG, Vidal eyes are anointed and he sees the light.  Angelic choirs appear when he sees Dave for the first time.  He is so struck by the magnificence of Dave that he is almost knocked backwards.  (If you are a bonifide Armstrongism, you should know what happens when someone is knocked backwards!!!!!) Do the Wachuku's see a money making empire in training RCGers to manage their money, or has Dave seen them as a money making machine for his new corporate monument to himself?  Why is it OK for his new ministers to give money to humanitarian relief when other COG's are condemned?

"Why is it OK for his new ministers to give money to humanitarian relief when other COG's are condemned?"

Because it just IS, that's why. If Dave thinks of it, it is ok or if the rules need to change, it's ok.

Obviously you have never witnessed DCP change the rules of the game when he gets behind or redraws church boundries in a way that increases those that now must come to his church. It's how we grow things!

Trust me. I speak the truth.

When Vidal is quoted from other sources, he sounds like a normal guy. Then he writes on Dave's clap-trap page and he sounds like a zombie. I think this partnership is mutually exclusive for Dave and Vidal. Dave uses Vidal to make the people feel all warm and fuzzy about forking out tons of money to Dave, and the Wachuku's get their cut. I hope these people start waking up and run for their lives.

There is another school of thought, unknown to the ACOGs. Many Christians believe that if they are effective in making disciples around the world, the apocalypse of Revelation will not be necessary. You'll have an entirely different world being presented to Jesus Christ at his return. No need for distruction or the massive human suffering. These Christians are hard at work, systematically preaching the gospel around the world, smuggling Bibles into Communist and totalitarian countries. When they show up with hospital ships, or portable water purification plants, they let disaster victims know that the relief they are providing is courtesy of Jesus and His followers!

I can't think of more horribly, inhumane, debauched values or unChristlike theology than that taught by Herbert W. Armstrong and the ACOGs!
