Dave Pack And His Kitchen Staff Desperately Crank Up Damage Control On New Years Eve

New Year’s Damage Control

 

The Restored Church of God Headquarters hirelings are counting on the brethren being docile imbeciles. The 2023 budget projections require they remain passive idiots who willingly eat fecal matter spoon-fed by corrupt enablers.

 

Professional Coward and Pastor General David C. Pack dared not show his face during his 36^th failure in six months. Being contrite and embarrassed is beneath his office as a false apostle. Instead, he dangled his willing Meat Puppet, James E. Habboush, to spin a Damage Control song-and-dance on New Year’s Eve.

 

Everyone in RCG should be insulted by the “Brief Comments” posted yesterday. Meat Puppet was stalling as he offered recycled patronizing words while slapping the audience in the face. Some will be awake enough to notice he said nothing inside those four minutes.

 

 

To fully appreciate the comments on December 31, 2022, revisit the past.

 

The Coffee Kid and Pepper Boy have evolved beyond their nervous buffoonery of the Tammuz Cooking Table in June. Developing into certified enablers devoid of integrity and dignity, both men are unashamed to stand before the entire church and offer false encouragement to the members of RCG.

 

Andrew “Meat Shield” Holcombe stammered through an introduction for “The Greatest Unending Story! (Part 393)” on September 17, 2022.

“We've wrestled with many different aspects of prophecy…A lot has been cemented and is and is correct…We're just focused a little bit on timing…And truly, we can appreciate and understand the complexity, the difficulty that these verses have have given us…A lot has been resolved, and there is no reason to believe we're going another year.”

 

 

Just before the Feast of Tabernacles, Meat Shield got up again and told Five Lies to the members of RCG on October 8.

“Brethren, we are truly in an exciting place and time in prophecy…Much has been learned…That letter that Mr. Pack wrote is correct…we’re just right on track…Brethren, we could all just be looking forward to what’s going to happen.”

 

 

On October 29, James “Meat Puppet” Habboush drew the short straw and attempted to pacify the members of RCG. The investment was only worth 45 seconds of his time.

“We shouldn’t be surprised if we’re here next week…We understand the time we’re in. We understand and have confidence in what we’re about to embark on…We’re right on track, brethren. Let’s be confident of what God is about to use us to do.”

 

Everything those men said on three separate occasions proved absolutely false. Make a note of that.

 

These quotes provide a fuller appreciation of what was said yesterday. When you listen back to back, they reveal the desperate weakness oozing from Headquarters, exposing their glaring emptiness.

 

 

“Brief Comments” – James Habboush – December 31, 2022

“I'd like to make a few brief comments regarding our place in prophecy. The time we're in. This very exciting time, very expectant time.”

 

We are in a time of wolves and false teachers. We are in a time of unstable, unsound doctrines.

 

Jim, is this the same “time we’re in” that you just mentioned in October or a different one?

 

“We know we are in the month that we all expect events to unfold. But don't expect anything to happen tonight.”

 

The Headquarters congregation was privy to the removal of the 5 PM salvation arrival, though the rest of the membership was left to wonder.

 

I apologize to everyone because that was partially my fault. If I point out Dave sits a lot, he will choose to stand. If I theorize he will bitch-out and make a pre-deadline proclamation, he will decide not to even though he already had a “new case” for going later into Tevet.

 

The RCG ministry reads this blog and, more importantly, adjusts because of it. Dave and Company are making an effort to do the opposite of what is written or said in interviews. Yes, this website now influences RCG behavior.

 

(Brad, if that is not true, send me an email, and I will retract it.)

 

Moving up in internet search results and the increasing popularity among current RCG members and prospective members are being felt. If they were not fans before, Brian Jackson and Larry Cockshutt are now, just to see if their names are mentioned again. Hello, fellas! ;)

 

“As Mr. Pack likes to say, ‘All is still well. We're right on track.’ I've had opportunity to learn what he has found, what he has discovered, what God has shown him. And I can echo that. All is still well. We're still right on track.”

 

Wait, did Dave discover it, or did God show him? It cannot be both.

 

This paragraph should insult every member of The Restored Church of God. Salvation was not coming to them before the meal, yet all was still well. How is that well? How is that on track? Meat Puppet does not explain, but he can say that because he has insider information that gives him a warm-fuzzy.

 

Dave's god is always a day late and a dollar short when it comes to timing adjustments. The Packian Triad of Fraud (Dave, Jim, and Andy) have been wrong 36 times in six months. But somehow, God designed it that way, and they are right on track.

 

This entire announcement made me angry when I first heard it. Those poor people in RCG. Why do they sit and take it?

 

 

This analogy helped me understand.

 

You have a best friend who is in an abusive relationship. The guy cheats on her, calls her names, roughs her up occasionally, and is a royal jerk. But my friend loves him. I can be there for her to comfort her, and we can talk about the apparent issues, but I cannot press too hard. She considers breaking up with him but holds on to the hope that he will "just change somehow" and that things will get better despite the toxic relationship pattern.

 

When I hear he has hurt her, it makes me angry. I want to do something about it. If I get too aggressive, my friend will be mad at me, and I may push her away. I also recognize I cannot make the decisions for her. I can choose to be a friend and be there when she needs me, but she needs to be the one to find the courage and resolve to make the decision to leave.

 

I warn her that he has the potential to kill her. “Oh, he would never do that.” If he cheats, lies, insults, pushes, and gaslights, then extreme harm is the next natural step.

 

 

A murderous, lying spirit is gestating inside The Restored Church of God. All is not well. The Spirit of Error has taken root and is flourishing at Headquarters. The Pod People are in charge now.

 

Meat Puppet further practices his gaslighting skills.

 

“If you've been in the church for seven years, you know it's been a ride. A wonderful ride. A wonderful journey where we've learned new and exciting things.”

 

Seven years of disappointments and failures are not “wonderful” by any stretch. What is exciting about biblical fraud? The “new” things have been abandoned from a week ago. These prophetic teachings have no staying power. The sure words of David C. Pack wither within days.

 

Is another failed date cause for excitement?

 

“But at times, we think we see things, and it turns out that we have a little longer wait.”

 

So, it is not inspired preaching moved by God’s Holy Spirit, after all. The RCG brethren should be prepared to wait for the rest of their lives for David C. Pack to be right about timing. He is not led by God. He is a false prophet, and his two minions are equally guilty of prophetic deception.

 

Oh yes, you will be waiting.

 

 

Meat Puppet explains how difficult prophecy is, comparing it to playing chess.

 

“…and it [chess] required intense mental effort. Just hours upon hours of looking at similar things, not necessarily the same position each time, but similar positions. And it took extraordinary brain power. Well, that brethren in no way matches what this process is like.”

 

As mentally taxing as chess is, prophecy is harder. We get it. Andy said that in September.

 

Nowhere in the Bible does any man of God express how hard it is to get things correct. God puts the words into their mouths, and they come to pass. The Spirit opens their minds to understanding and knowledge. God had to back up Moses when he struck the rock, or it would have been over for him. True prophets can never be wrong. Not even once.

 

God always gives men the tools they need to fulfill the task He desires of them. A minister does not need “intense mental effort” to understand God’s word. Catholics do that. True understanding requires God’s Holy Spirit.

 

The Bible is only a chess game to those moved by the will of men. If God guides you to teach this, then you will be the Bobby Fischer of prophetic understanding.

 

“It's much like a kaleidoscope where you can see a beautiful picture through that lens, but then just the slightest turn creates a whole new picture seemingly just as beautiful.”

 

A kaleidoscope projects magnificent gibberish. A colorful mosaic of ever-changing illusions. The analogy was meant to convey the complex beauty of prophetic understanding but instead exposed the nature of infinite biblical possibilities.

 

That is the fuel "The Greatest Unending Story!" Series runs on.

 

Without God's Spirit, that futile journey begins and ends in darkness. Darkness has enveloped The Restored Church of God.

 

“We're learning the mysteries of the kingdom of God.”

 

How can you say that, Jim? You just announced salvation was no longer arriving at supper time. You clearly did NOT learn a mystery of the kingdom of God, or it would have happened.

 

Have you considered what else your human idol has taught that will also be proven false? Have you considered how many more concepts will later be proven to not be a part of the mystery?

 

Math must be proven to be correct. Facts must be proven to be valid. Until then, it is theoretical.

 

“We see the day approaching as we look outside.”

 

Ouch. But not today. Not at 5 PM. We thought we saw it approaching, but not so much. What an uncomfortable statement to make to that audience at that time.

 

“We're in an incredibly exciting time.”

 

More exciting than salvation coming within two hours? More exciting than when Andy said that in October, just before the Feast of Tabernacles? Were those the exact exciting times or different ones? What is exciting about failure, delay, and disappointment?

 

“And even if God chooses to show us a little bit more as He's want to do, and we have to wait a little bit longer, we, above all people, can be incredibly grateful for what we have access to.”

 

Meat Puppet is not afraid to lay this at God’s feet. If members of RCG need to be upset at anyone, they should be mad at God. Point your frustrated finger at Him, not His loyal servants. And certainly not at No-Show Try-Hard Dave.

 

Members of The Restored Church of God, not only does James “Meat Puppet” Habboush rub feces in your face, he wants you to be incredibly grateful for it.

 

Incredibly grateful for what? For seven years of excuses? For building up hopeful anticipation of eternal salvation only to snatch it away again and again? For vain teachings that change week to week?

 

I cannot fathom what Jim thought RCG members should be incredibly grateful for. Dude, what is wrong with you?

 

“So, having said that, I hope you find it encouraging. We're, again, still right on track.”

 

Are folks to be encouraged by that one last brain-dead insult?

 

There were plenty of shoulder-pats to go around at the back of the hall once he stepped down from the lectern. Mission Damage Control: Complete.

 

 

This boiled-down summary reveals what was really said.

 

Oops. Wrong again.

Prophecy is hard.

God is to blame.

Our Lord delays His coming.

Be warm and be filled.

 

None of these questions were answered.

 

What is all well about this?

How is this on track?

What is God doing?

What is there to be grateful for?

How is this encouraging?

 

This is why Headquarters needs the brethren to be blithering fools. Anyone applying critical thinking can see through this latest ruse by Dave’s god.

 

The continuing resignations from RCG are a growing concern. The entire “Brief Announcement” was Damage Control stalling. Nothing more.

 

The members of The Restored Church of God are not idiots. They are not weak. They are not blind. But, they feel trapped and do not know what to do, while others are simply asleep.

 

If you are still on the fence, re-read “Is ‘That Prophet’ Alive Today?” and re-listen to “90 Reasons to Follow the Truth.” Let David C. Pack explain who and what he has become.

 

You are in a tough jam, folks. The place you proved was God's True Church has been rotting around you, and you can feel it. The spoiled fruit is plentiful. The gospel is no longer actively being preached to the world. The Series is unending. Dates are set, but come and go with more excuses.

 

See these types of Damage Control messages for what they are: Pacifications lacking substance. Do not accept 2023 as you did 2022. You deserve better.

 

If any current members would like assistance with composing their exit letters, please reach out to exrcgwebsite@gmail.com. Also, you can ask me any questions, and I will keep our conversation confidential.

 

Let me know how I can help.
