Mind The Gap
David C. Pack of The Restored Church of God was experiencing the cold sweats of withdrawals from not speaking. I have been monitoring him closely since Part 353 in March of 2022. The longest he has gone without the soothing limelight bathing him in rapturous glory has been thirteen days.
Flashback Part 418 – February 9, 2023
@ 01:48 But, I love words. They are (I guess) my heroin.
Boy. He was not kidding. He was more correct than he knew.
In the past seventeen months, David C. Pack has not gone longer than thirteen days without speaking.
I thought he was going to break his record this month, but alas, it was not meant to be. His itching teeth were too much to bear because “The Greatest Unending Story! (Part 463)” was given on August 19, 2023. The Gap Clock was reset. The ringing in his ears was abated.
The gap in speaking creates a ripple effect of gaps in reporting. The Opening Night of the Feast of Tabernacles on September 29 at sunset is still when Jesus Christ will return. Subject to change, and change will be the subject soon.*
Since it has come up in private messages and in the comments section, the reason there have been no new articles is two-fold. After almost two weeks of blissful silence, Part 463 was plain boring. Dave repackaged some old material he had forgotten and stamped it with an "I wish I knew that sooner" label. Nothing was pressing to report.
The other side is that I have been busy. I let the comfortable silence marinade.
Dennis Diehl gave me some sage advice early on, "Don't write unless you have something to say." The website is an information hub with timely, relevant news reporting. It is not entertainment. Since there is no internal pressure to produce content to gain followers or generate income, when Dave is silent, I can follow suit.
There are over 200 other articles on exrcg.org for people to catch up with if they discover the website. The Feast countdown clock keeps ticking on the landing page. And Former Sixth King Mister Vladimir Putin still needs someone else to start his car in the morning.
When significant changes are announced, you will read it here.
Within the first sixty seconds of Part 463, it was clear Dave planned to perform a stealth rebranding of The Kingdom to Israel.
Part 463 – August 19, 2023
@ 00:37 So, we’re gonna ask this question: When is the Initial Kingdom of God? When is the Initial Kingdom of God? And maybe even what is it? What is (when is) what is the Initial Kingdom of God? The Bible talks about three measures.
@ 01:33 But we’ve gotta look at how the Scriptures say the Initial Kingdom of God looks.
Dave plays a shell game with words. He preps the church for a new timeline but does not reveal it in Part 463. By introducing the new phrase "Initial Kingdom of God," he can save face by manipulating language for when he later shifts the First Kingdom timeline or adds back in a fourth iteration. Flip a coin to figure out which.
@ 25:16 I never did the exercise we’re about to culminate with. Never did it. I wish I had. It would have made things a lot simpler.
Drum roll. This must be something nobody has ever heard before.
@ 26:34 “…to preach the acceptable year of the Lord.” Wow. So, every time Christ came back in the other Gospels and, He's preaching the Kingdom of God. Luke is telling us He’s preaching the first year? Wow. The first year IS the Kingdom of God. Not in power in the same way, but it’s immensely powerful.
Some may think when I write about Dave suffering from the early onset of dementia or Alzheimer's, those are somehow stabs at dark humor. No. He must be losing his mind if he believes this is new material because he is presenting like this is a mind-blowing revelation of essential knowledge.
@ 28:02 So, we’re gonna look for the rest of the sermon at what it means to have this year that is the Kingdom of God.
@ 28:30 So, when is the Initial Kingdom of God? It is the year. Now, here’s what was so difficult. Can this also be restoring the kingdom to Israel? Oh, that’s been a bugaboo. You've heard me say, "You cannot have the Kingdom of God, and it's the Kingdom to Israel."
As it turns out, the Kingdom to Israel IS the Kingdom of God. Though, he never said that. Instead, he spent 25 minutes retreading verses to make a point that never culminates.
If this idea is so new, how come I already knew it?
Dave was the one who separated the Kingdom to Israel of Acts 1:6 from the Kingdom of God in the first place. Not the Bible. That concept was entirely his brain-baby, but he forgot he sired it.
This does not feel like Part 463 but rather Part 263. Nobody at Headquarters tapped Dave on the shoulder to replay all the sermons where he had already covered this type of content. It is not new material, folks. It is a remix of side points he swept into one bin to toss on the brethren as if it were game-changing confetti. David C. Pack is the Rip Taylor of bible prophecy.
@ 58:25 We're gonna come back soon. We’ve gotta consider exactly what is the Feast of Ingathering at the end of the year. Has the church fully understood this? Or might we find we’ve got it in the wrong place? And maybe our wait is not quite as long as we think it is. We’ll soon cover other very important things. Good night.”
By the end of the uninspired message, it was obvious Dave had not spent thirteen days studying the content for Part 463. This was a filler message to prepare the brethren for more changes to come.
Early reports on Part 464* last night confirm my hunches. Expect more Dave updates more frequently on the horizon. It appears the gap has been filled.

Gaps are good where Dave Pack is concerned. It's also not a bad place to buy your Levis and Wranglers. Does Dave allow his members to wear blue jeans?
"The website is an information hub with timely, relevant news reporting. It is not entertainment."
Not entertainment? That depends on who you ask- it's all in the eye of the beholder.
The feast of ingathering is at the end of the year - Ex 23:16. Literally? As in the creation week of Gen 1 being Tishri 16-22? To my knowledge WCG never taught this; probably two objections: the year has to start at the beginning of a month (why?), and, Nisan is the beginning of the "sacred" year. But Ex 12:2 in the Hebrew can mean Nisan/Abib is the chiefest of months, the most important month, but not necessarily the first month in the astronomical year although Israel appears to have counted months beginning with Nisan.
If creation week is 16-22 the first year began the 4th day, Tishri 19. The next year began Tishri 19. I'll guesstimate, not predict, not foretell, but guesstimate however that Jesus will not come Sept 29, 2023.
DCP has updated the anticipated arrival of the Kingdom of God and as of last night (Part 464) and it is NOT on September 29. I just finished listening to it and there is content for a few articles. It is the opposite of coma-inducing Part 463. Laughter abounds.
Dave was absolutely stalling with Part 463 because he needed to speak but was not ready to present what he did a week later. In true drawing-it-out-beyond-a-reasonable-amount fashion, he does not tell the full story and everyone has to wait for Part 465 next week to get the real REAL date when things begin.
He did make a huge point about "the Feast of Ingathering" NOT being the Feast of Tabernacles, but is actually the Feast of Trumpets. HWA and WCG were such ignorant nincompoops. Articles forthcoming. Cheers.
"Articles forthcoming. Cheers."
Looking forward to updates that will leave us gyrating in our seats!
The gab, uh gap, was too long and Dave (not DavID since he lost his ID years ago when be began calling himself.......) just had to begin ranting about another date.
Some of the many problems with klepto-Dave Pack-of-lies:
1. Delusions of grandeur
2. Prediction addiction
3. Kleptomania
4. Dung for brains
5. Diarrhea of the mouth
