Dennis Asks: "Why Is Dave Pack Scared of Me?"

Debate Me Mr. Pack

A Proposal Part II

Since the Restored Church of God has the real truth I merely have the present truth, it should be no problem for us to debate these things like adults who share the same WCG/Minister experience.  The only difference between us is that you have gone on to reinvent WCG after the passing of HWA and all that followed, and I have not.  We share the same education and I totally understand why you teach as you do.  I know how you think about the Bible and where you go to prove it. 

So, how about a debate?  Call it a discussion or a chat if you wish.  I have nothing to prove except that there is much much more accurate information beyond the boundries of the Restored Church of God and most Churches of God actually.  I also enjoy showing the rancor between those who "all spoke the same thing," was quite remarkable as well as the disharmony of the Gospels.  We both sat through that Harmony of the Gospels of the Class with RCM so this can be a lot of fun.  Perhaps we could invite him to moderate since we both were "his students" and he often seems puzzled as to why we would have strayed from his clear teachings .

So,  and I have to head out the door as I have a couple clients,  how about that debate?

I'll give you a heads up on topics if you like.

Is Genesis 1-11 Literally True

Sabbath Origins

Who really wrote the Books of Moses

Is Daniel Prophecy or History Backwards

What's With Revelation?

How Soon is "Soon"

The Harmony of the Gospels

Who Was Paul

Just What do You Mean Midrash

Did Jesus mean to start a church

Can humans all speak the same thing

Is it OK to disagree with the Church/Minister

Was Paul a False Prophet About Jesus Coming

Failed OT Prophecies

Failed NT Prophecies

Evolution or Creation

Six Thousand Years or 13.77 Million

Were Adam and Eve Real People

The Purpose of Genesis 1-3

Who is Elohim anyway

The Ten Commandments

What Were the Two Trees Really

and so on....

You are more than welcome to come up with your own list of things you'd enjoy discussing.  I'm pretty easy going about this and we can chat about anything you like as long as we stick to the Bible and the real truth.

Warm regards

Flurry Cult Now A World Leader On How To Shoot Women's Hoops

God's greatest living impersonator of Herbert Armstrong is now letting the world know the godly way for women to play basketball.  In the shadows of the looming house of idolatry, PCG girls learn the truth about how the TRUE women of God play basketball and shoot hoops. 

This has to be one of the most pathetic scenes I have ever seen COG youth exploited and humiliated in. 

False Prophet Thiel Bloviates On Petra and That He Will Be One of the Witnesses In The End-times

If you have an hour and twenty minutes to waste you can listen to the non-ordained self appointed false prophet Thiel bloviate on the church fleeing to Petra.  In conjunction with his boring video he also posted about Petra on his blog.

Today’s suggested sermon by the Continuing Church of God today is at the ContinuingCOG YouTube channel and is titled Might Petra be the Place of Safety?
It covers information such as:

The Bible teaches that a portion of the Christians will be protected in a wilderness area during the Great Tribulation.  Might this place be Petra in Jordan?  Which places do the show can and cannot be the place of safety?  Is the idea of Christians fleeing to an area with caves during the reign of the Beast and Antichrist an old one or a modern invention?  Which Christians get this protection and which do not?  Will those who do not go be subject to persecution?  Do Catholic prophecies warn against this place of protection?

If you are not close to Petra when bad things start to happen, you should not flee to an island!!! False prophet Thiel's god is going to make them all sink

Since the Bible seem to forecast near total destruction to the islands of the world (Revelation 6:12-14; 16:17-21), no island seems to be a likely place (more information can be found in the article Islands and Bible Prophecy).

The non-ordained self appointed prophet writes:

It is also of interest to note that those that escape will be assembled–they are not lone independents–this is also consistent with Zephaniah 2:1-3

All of you foolish people in the hundreds of independent COG's are in for a great shock when you arrive at Petra and find you were not part of a great assembly of TRUE Christians that can only be found in the Continuing Church of God.  Oh wait!  You will not even be there.  Only those assembled with the Continuing Church of God will make it!

Gather yourselves together, yes gather together, O undesirable nation, Before the decree is issued, Or the day passes like chaff, Before the day of the LORD’s fierce anger comes upon you, Before the day of the LORD’s anger comes upon you! Seek the LORD, all you meek of the earth, who have upheld His justice. Seek righteousness, seek humility. It may be that you will be hidden in the day of the LORD’s anger.

The Hebrew words translated as Zephaniah means “Yahweh Hides” or “Yahweh Has Hidden” (Holy Bible: Vine’s Expository Reference Edition, p. 826). Notice that a decree is issued, apparently by a church leader–and I believe that the leader will be part of the Continuing Church of God. This would seem to happen after the gospel has been preached enough to the world as a witness (Matthew 24:14), Jewish sacrifices are stopped, and the abomination is set up (Daniel 9:27; 11:31) per Jesus’ statements in Matthew 24:15-16.

So now we have the non-ordained self appointed prophet setting himself up as one of the two witnesses to the world.  Are their any more titles he wants to take on?  Is there anything left?

Apparently the self appointed prophet has spend several thousand dollars worth of tithe money into redecorating his video set.  Gone is the crooked book case with its tattered books laying on end. Now the super duper set includes a minuscule decorated copy of the commandments that looks like it is ready to jab him in the head.  More flaying hands, elevated bibles, rustling of notes, momentary lapses of mental facilities and more. High standards do not seem to be a hallmark of the Continuing Church of God.

How many more decades to COG members need to sit there and hear the exact same sermons over and over? It's the same proof-texting, the same catch phrases, the same scenarios, the discussions of Petra, the church eras, the tribulation, etc.  Nothing about living a life like Jesus who ate with whores and outcasts.  Nothing about doing good for their neighbors.  The Hebrew scriptures reign supreme and Jesus is an inconvenient truth.
