Dave Pack Lies

 



David C. Pack Lies

 

That may be a redundant title for those following along because the evidence is pretty obvious by now. But, to come out and write it flatly is another level, especially when your name is attached to it.

 

By their fruits, you shall know them. Even a child is known for his doings. Out of the abundance of the heart, the mouth speaks. No lie is of the truth.

 

I do not address this lightly. I consider standing before the Judgment Seat of Christ to account for my actions and words. I ask myself if I am a liar or a hypocrite or a thief, or a blasphemer. It is quite sobering to ponder such matters.

 

For some, this is when I finally “crossed the line.” The question I ask when reporting on anything is, “Is it true?” To the best of my knowledge and understanding, what I write about David C. Pack is true.

 

While the hirelings at Headquarters have to stare at their shoes when they answer questions about “The Greatest Unending Story!” teachings, I can look anyone in the eyes and state, “David C. Pack lies.”

 

Want some proof?

 

Part 403 – November 5, 2022

@ 01:51 Now, more than ever, I can tell you this: Salvation will come in November 2022. See if you doubt that when we’re done.

 

Remember this?

 

Part 402 – October 25, 2022

@ 1:27:01 God’s will has been done. You made it to the 1335. The pledge is made on the dare, I say? The correct 1335.

 

These briefest of examples establish plainly that the Pastor General of The Restored Church of God has a documented pattern of speaking lies. Calling them falsehoods and error and biblical fraud has been a cautious way to pull the punches of reality.

 

However, playtime is over, and the velvet gloves are coming off.

 

“The Greatest Unending Story! (Part 407)” was given by David C. Pack on November 30, 2022. He continues pushing the Christmas-Christ Coming pretty hard and will continue it this Saturday when he force-feeds Part 408 to the brethren.

 

The proven-by-history prophetic lies in RCG have been going on for over ten years. The “I am an apostle” lie has been going on since 2005, proving that the more often a lie is repeated, the more “real” it feels.

 

But a lie is still a lie no matter how long you tell it.

 

 

@ 00:03 We all know the date that is a few days ahead. So, we’re nearing a final, complete picture of all that happens.

 

December 9 at sunset Jerusalem time next Friday is the beginning of Kislev 16 when the First Kingdom arrives to give Elijah some juice to take open his big mouth to the world.

 

The picture is far from complete, and nothing is final with him.

 

Dave then repeats a “proof” about the rarity of Christmas occurring on Tevet 1, which I breezed past during Part 406 last time.

 

@ 00:27 First, remember that Christmas [on Tevet 1] occurs once in 76 years…One time in 76 years between 1992 and 2068.

 

This lie will be addressed in another article.

 

The biblical math will tweak your brain because it is either idiotic or lunatic. Dennis Diehl and I have discussed this in two separate phone calls already. The deception is so vile it requires careful focus.

 

It is added here for documentation purposes.

 

 

@ 00:42 What if Christmas arriving on Tevet 1 at “the midst of the years” Christmas was the only thing you had? You had no other metrics of any kind. Nothing. No Mystery of God ending. No death of the Queen. Or all kinds of other things. But, if you knew absolutely that Tevet 1 has to come on a Christmas, that’s all you’d need to know.

 

And there you have it. David C. Pack is finally correct because of Tevet 1 Christmas. The members of The Restored Church of God are awaiting their Christmas Miracle. Since NORAD tracks the progression of Santa each year, perhaps RCG can sell off their winter clothes to help fund piggybacking the tracking of the return of Jesus Christ starting in Jerusalem.

 

He will bring gifts to all the good little boys and girls in RCG across the globe as he makes His way west to the Wadsworth Campus.

 

Forevermore, a season to be jolly. Fa-la-la-la-la la-la la la.

 

@ 01:11 I’m gonna go over a few quick things just to remind you how hard is next Friday.

 

This is a family venue, so the obvious lines that write themselves will be excluded.

 

I will again officially state as an unordained non-prophet/non-psychic that Friday, December 9, will pass without incident. The members of RCG will be left to ponder having to deal with more Dave as they put on their ties and pantyhose before going to Services after practicing their plastic smiles in the mirror. 

 

Even more lights will fade from their eyes as they blankly drive to Services holding the potatoes au gratin as it goes cold amid the dead silence.

 

Who will be thrown at the lectern in the Main Hall that Sabbath to lie (reassure) the brethren that "all is well" and “we are right on track” so “do not be discouraged” because “Mr. Pack discovered some incredible new things” that “all the ministers agree” with. What’s worse is that they know it is coming.

 

@ 03:15 Got some really, really interesting things to look at today. Some puzzles and stay engaged. This is gonna be fun. Fascinating. All kinds of little things. Eye-opening things that you wouldn't believe could still be left after seven years of study. Oh, yes, there are.

 

Seven years of study will be proven to be worthless as of next Saturday, December 10. An abundance of worthless. An accumulation of worthless. A big pile of worthless.

 

@ 06:11 This proof, if you think about it, should be electrifying to you. You should just say, “There’s no way outta that.” There’s no way out of it.

 

As Ian Malcolm would say, “Life finds a way.” Dave will find a way to weasel out of this failure as it approaches. The shimmering mirage in the distance is far more tangible than the fading one up close.

 

There is no prophetic oasis for RCG on the horizon. Just a lot of hot air leading nowhere and manifesting nothing.

 

 

Dave read from the Encyclopedia Britannica explaining the popular understanding of why Jesus Christ is part of the world’s Christmas season and then added commentary.

 


@ 08:00 Christ will return to earth on December 25th. Now, as wrong as their theology is and as wrong as they are about worshipping another Jesus anyway by many other names, it’s not a bad thing that billions and billions of Christians for the last two thousand years have believed that the Kingdom of God would arrive Christmas.

 

A generous 5% of Herbert W. Armstrong just turned over in his grave.

 

Page 21 of the RCG booklet, “The True Origin of Christmas,” states:

 

Many speak of “putting Christ back into Christmas.” This is heard every year from thousands of pulpits and elsewhere. But the true Christ was never there! Just as a person cannot go back into a room that he had never entered, Jesus Christ cannot be “put back” into an event that He has never been in, and that He in fact hates! (Again, see Mark 7:7.) The Jesus that these preachers and religionists have in mind is another Christ, one with another gospel, another spirit—the Christmas spirit!—bringing totally different doctrines and teachings.


A good refresher for those interested in what RCG publicly teaches about Christmas can watch the World to Come program, “Christmas Unveiled—What God Says!”


There is an interesting quote beginning at 18:11 that cannot be embedded. Here is the YouTube link.

 

After Christmas comes and goes this year, there will not be a need to update the RCG literature or videos because Dave will step away from the Christmas fascination and focus back on Janus.

 

 

According to Dave, angels blowing trumpets on Christmas iconography now supports the Tevet 1 of 2022 scenario.

 

@ 09:10 But that’s absolutely part of Catholic and Protestant theology. It’s an astonishing thing. And, it becomes in a way, if not a proof, an indicator that a loving God who wants billions and billions of people to have salvation would send Christ to build His Kingdom on Christmas.

 

So, God has adopted the same mindset the Roman pagans had when they rolled Saturnalia into Christianity. Change the date a tad and call it "Christ Mas” to make the official Roman religion more appealing to both pagans AND Christians.

 

The god David C. Pack preaches thinks as the Romans did. How is that not frightening? Maybe god would also move the day of worship to Sunday so those same people would have an easier time swallowing the Sabbath. I wonder if Dave has already spit-balled that one.

 

How the mighty have fallen. The David C. Pack of today is far removed from the man he was ten years ago. If we played a clip of what he says now to Dave 2012, he would think it was a demon mimicking his voice. Nobody on the planet could convince him he would say that kind of thing just a decade into the future.

 

@ 09:31 The counterfeit is that just as Christmas is arriving, the Man of Sin, who's claiming he's God with all power, signs, and lying wonders, is ready to take his place on Christmas. And at the split-second of Christmas, he is struck dead in the power of God, and the True God arrives with the True Jesus Christ in glory on that day.

 

 

Dave then makes completely unfounded false statements about the death of Stephen in the Book of Acts. He strains at every opportunity to turn the Bible into a Christmas-laden book which only exposes his pathetic desperation to sell an abomination to members of RCG.

 

David C. Pack lies.

 

@ 19:36 This got Stephen killed when he cited the star on the top of the Christmas tree. They murdered him on the spot. Go back and read Acts 7. When he spoke about God raising Elijah. One, That Prophet who would come and straighten things out, and they murdered him for saying because he dared saying anything about their gods.

 

David C. Pack lies.

 

Stephen was stoned for explaining that Jesus Christ was That Prophet and the Jews murdered an innocent man. The Jews did not care about "other gods," and they certainly did not care about the Christmas tree.

 

This is the verse which Dave is trying to build his house of sand upon.

 

Acts 7:43

Yeah, ye took up the tabernacle of Moloch, and the star of your god Remphan, figures which ye made to worship them: and I will carry you away beyond Babylon.

 

There was a star in the sky called Remphan. Some sources state it was “a star called Jupiter.” It was not a symbol placed upon a tree but a star depicted in ancient iconography. It was an idolatrous practice, for sure. But it had nothing to do with Christmas or the Christmas tree. Tying those together is a complete fabrication of Dave’s twisted imagination.

 

Stephen referred to ancient Israel before they were carried off into captivity in Babylon. He reminded the Jewish authorities of his day of the errors of their mutual ancestors.

 

The star at the top of the Christmas tree is the Star of Bethlehem, which came much later than Remphan.

 

David C. Pack lies.

 

Dave is making it all up and forcing a Christmas angle into Acts 7 because he needs it to, not because anything he said is real. The Bible says what he needs it to when he needs it. That is the RCG Way.

 

Stephen’s words from the Book of Acts make this clear.

 

Acts 7:37

This is that Moses, which said unto the children of Israel, A prophet shall the Lord your God raise up unto you of your brethren, like unto me; him shall ye hear.

 

Jesus Christ was a Jew in Israel. The Jews of His day did not hear him. Jesus Christ was like Moses.

 

Act 7:52-54

Which of the prophets have not your fathers persecuted? And they have slain them which shewed before of the coming of the Just One; of whom ye have been now the betrayers and murderers: Who have received the law by disposition of angels, and have not kept. When they heard these things, they were cut to the heart, and they gnashed on him with their teeth.

 

Stephen went on to see Jesus Christ standing on the right hand of God. And they stoned him.

 

Stephen was not killed because he denounced Christmas. Or other gods. Jesus Christ was That Prophet who the Jews rejected and had the Romans kill. That was Stephen’s point. Jesus was a Prophet persecuted by them. They betrayed and murdered the Just One.

 

The Jews of that time were not Moloch or Remphan worshippers. Nor were they Christmas tree decorators. That teaching is shallow and foolish at best.

 

Nothing in Acts 7 has anything to do with Christmas. But for now, that is the official RCG teaching “ministers” are forced to perpetuate. Well, at least for the next twenty-five days until it is walked back.

 

 

Jumping ahead to more lies, the word of God continues to be used deceitfully. Dave walks through passages in the New Testament as more proofs for Christmas, including Luke 21:34 and 1 Thessalonians 5:6-7.

 

The problem is they are recycled passages for when he warned about New Year’s Eve a while back. Each holiday is “The holiday God hates most.” Drunkenness and surfeiting verses are easily interchangeable to fit any occasion he needs them to.

 

Those verses could be used to denounce Christmas, New Year's, Thanksgiving, Valentine's Day, Saint Patrick's Day, or even birthdays. I am still waiting for him to tie it into May the 4th Be With You. The peace and safety angle works there, too.

 

David C. Pack lies.

 

David C. Pack is not a man of his word.

 

David C. Pack has the most astonishing

piss-poor reading comprehension skills

of anyone I have ever heard.

 

But, after seven years, he finally has it all figured out. Go Christmas 2022!

 

 

@ 1:23:35 So, as far as the length of the First Kingdom, I wanted to close with a few quick verses that are just real simple. Easy to remember that help you to understand it’s 15 days. We’re right on track. Not a word, not a syllable, not a vowel or consonant I uttered last week would I change.

 

Give it time. The countdown on the website reflects the beginning of everything at the start of Kislev 16. That is calculated using Jerusalem sunset time on Friday, December 9. This will be Dave's subsequent big failure.

 

History shows that before next Friday morning, Dave will have “new clarity” walking away from this 15-day Kingdom. And when that falls apart, so does his case for Christmas 2022.

 

He will play the biblical accordion again and compress the First Kingdom to less than 15 days, then may switch back to the events being concurrent rather than consecutive. That would buy him an additional 15 days when Santa fails to eat your cookies and milk on the night of December 24.

 

Wait for it. It shall surely come. Though it hesitates. Dave's waffling. Dave's squirming. Dave's wiggling. Dave's clarifying. He will not hold fast to next Friday morning until next Friday morning. Remember, he is a caver who likes to be right about being wrong, so he can turn and point out his own "we" errors.

 

David C. Pack lies.

 

More will be covered tomorrow.

  2. Dave relies on his groupies having grown up with Short Attention Span Theater. The overly long sermons over the years insure it stays in place as the numbness takes over within the first 20 minutes and a coma the next 70 to 90. With Dave's total lack of his own short-term memory, it's a perfect match for the ongoing prophetic shit show.

    I don't believe any real or imagined theologian has ever undertaken such an off repeating cycle of prophetic BS regarding the Second Coming and not come under well-deserved public scorn. With Dave and RCG, he and it is so unknown to the general public, it is up to those who have been personally affected by the lunacy to speak up and share their awakening in the hope others in the RCG Trance can escape and reclaim their actual and real lives. Being a member of RCG is to live in Fantasyland and the fantasy is a malignant growth on the mind.

  3. A false prophecy is a FALSE statement and therefore he is a lying prophet, just as Pack is liar, so is Flurry and so was HWA, probably the worst of the fraternity.

  7. Dave is definitely a gifted speaker. He reminds me of a former work boss who was also very gifted in another area. But this work boss was vile. Being technically gifted and having character are two very different things. They bring to mind 1Corinthians 13, the lover chapter. Without love, these people are ultimately worthless.
    Btw, I love the politically incorrect line in the 1985 movie Runaway Train where the prison Warden says to the inmates "(you are) human waste. No good to yourselves or anyone else."

  8. Of the many absurd statements by Pack in this article the worst has to be this one, " This got Stephen killed when he cited the star on the top of the Christmas tree." We all know Dave has resorted to pulling things out of his ass, but this proves it! Stephen was NOT stoned because he saw some "star" on a mythical "Christmas tree" that had not even been dreamed into being at that time.

    Note this history of Stephen. He was stoned for the words he spoke, not a star on a tree.:

    The Stoning of Stephen

    Stephen was a deacon and charismatic leader, “working great wonders and signs among the people.” Opponents of the Gospel attempted to debate with him, but “they could not withstand the wisdom and the spirit with which he spoke.” Stephen was bold and brash – He was a fearless proponent of the good news of Jesus’s resurrection.

    Because they couldn’t beat him on the merits of his arguments, Stephen’s adversaries turned to a more barbaric plan. They went to the religious leaders and accused Stephen of publicly blaspheming both God and Moses, a crime punishable by death. They even brought “witnesses” to testify against him. So Stephen was arrested and brought before the Council of the Sanhedrin.

    As was customary, Stephen was given the opportunity to defend himself, and went on to deliver a remarkably courageous speech, where he carefully summarized Israelite history, up to and including the building of the first temple in Jerusalem. He connected the ancient rituals of the Mosaic Law to the new order of things brought by Jesus. In short, Stephen alluded to a new way of worshiping God made possible by Jesus’s death and resurrection. This new way was a direct challenge to the authority of the religious leadership he was testifying to.

    Incredibly, Stephen did not hold back on delivering the unvarnished truth – even though he knew his life was on the line. He was staunchly direct.

    “You stiff-necked people… you are just like your ancestors. Which of the prophets did your ancestors not persecute? They put to death those who foretold the coming of the Righteous One, whose betrayers and murderers you have now become.” (Acts 7:51-52)
    When the members of the Sanhedrin heard this, they were furious and cried out against him. But calmly, Stephen gazed up to heaven…

    “‘Look,’ he said, ‘I see heaven open and the Son of Man standing at the right hand of God.’ At this they covered their ears and, yelling at the top of their voices, they all rushed at him, dragged him out of the city and began to stone him. Meanwhile, the witnesses laid their coats at the feet of a young man named Saul. While they were stoning him, Stephen prayed, ‘Lord Jesus, receive my spirit.’ Then he fell on his knees and cried out, ‘Lord, do not hold this sin against them.’ When he had said this, he fell asleep.” (Acts 7:56-60)

    Stephen was the first person murdered because of his belief in Jesus Christ — what we refer to as a martyr. Being stoned was a slow and cruel death, but Stephen endured it through his bold faith. He even asked God to have mercy on these merciless men, just as Jesus did when dying slowly on the cross.

  9. 2Thess 2:11...... God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:

    Do NOT call yourself an apostle of Jesus Christ.

    ReplyDelete
  10. Brilliant point, NO2HWA. And may I just ask any in this audience who cling to the law (via belief in BI, or for any other reason), if Stephen could face his impending death for this "new way of worship made possible by the death burial and resurrection of Jesus, perhaps that merits more thought. If facing the Jews with that truth of a change in how one accesses and worships God, now that Jesus died for us, does not start to lift the veil of Moses and see that Gospel of our salvation, nothing will.

    As for Dave, he died (spiritually) the minute he spoke his first lie, in God's name. Every false prophet in the Acogs died when they did the same thing...it's just that they don't know it yet. Just like Adam and Eve died (spiritually) the minute they ate that fruit, so too have all these lying, false prophets of Armstrongism. The question is, how many will they take with them, for believing these men?

  11. "Star on the Xmas tree" is apparently a reference to the "Star of Rephan" mentioned in 7 after the "tabernacle of Molech", probably drawing on Amos 5. But we know next to nothing about the worship of Rephan, much less enough to claim that the referenced "star" ended up on any trees. Stars were seen all over the world by all sorts of cultures with varying interpretations and ascribed meanings - to claim that one depiction of a star in one location equals another depiction far over distance and time is pretty silly stuff. But you come to expect that level of silliness from COGlodytes.
