Dave Pack: My HQ Is "The Light On The Hill" That Can Never Be Hid

The mind boggling campus of Super Dave

Millions upon millions of people drive by the Restored Church of God cult compound ever week.  They are in such awe that they just keep on driving on even though Dave's "christ" will soon return to this "high place" and wreck righteous havoc.

Dave is so good at brainwashing his people that his staff unquestionably believe everything he says. They too believe that hundreds of thousands COG members and others will soon be streaming into the campus and church as they are flown in on the wings of the Giant Eagle.

“[You’re] the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hid” (vs. 14). Literally, brethren, the very location of this magnificent—magnificent—World Headquarters that will come to absolute completion—absolute completion…Everything is going to be not “lights out,” but it’s literally going to be “lights on.” A beautiful city with every four days…maybe now, it’s about every three days…seen by a million people who pass by on two highways.

I’m not going to say here all of what I’ve told the staff, but the staff knows what’s coming. All of you here and everybody coming for the Feast, and everybody, who ever comes from anywhere in the world, I’m telling you, if you can get to Headquarters and see this amazing city on the hill as it will exist in just 40 more days, you’ll be glad you could get here. Don’t try to do what you can’t do…I’m speaking literally, but also in a way rhetorically. I know most of God’s people can’t come. That’s why I’m committed, we’re all committed to showing films of the campus from every angle. But everybody who comes always says the films don’t do it justice. Now I shouldn’t say that for all the people who are going to see nothing but film. But we’ll try to do the best we can.

The "city of the hill" wants to make sure 

you do not get too close

Dave Pack: This Work Will Get So Big And Great That Christ Will HAVE To Bring The Kingdom

The official narcissist of the Restored Church of God is making more boastful claims about how superfantabulous his church really is.  It is going to too grow so enormous that the world will not be able to handle its presence. It will get so bad that his creature he calls "christ" will be forced to come to earth.  Dave will literally FORCE his "christ" to return.  Dave certainly is one powerful man!

But the point is, we’re going to get large enough that…It’s almost, we reach a point where…This isn’t why Christ is going to bring the Kingdom, but it’s one reason why Christ, at a point, will have to bring the Kingdom or we’re not going any further…we got too big. We got “outside the box,” so to speak. Now, we’re all over the world, but there’s going to come a point where you individuals around the world are going to have to be able to take the heat. You’re going to be trying to produce your own heat—zealous of good works. That’s what zealous means from zeō—it means heat. But you’ve got to also “take” the heat. You have to, if it’s not something you did. If you’re buffeted for your own fault, you know what Peter says in Chapter 4. But if you do well, you do the right thing and you take it patiently this is thank worthy with God. It counts.

So we are going to get enormously big. Look…unless…if the Kingdom comes very, very soon, then I guess we won’t. I guess we won’t…It would have to be very soon, though. But we’re going on…You can see we’re giving away millions of items every month. I don’t know how long it will be, but I can’t imagine it’s too awfully long before it will be one million a week. We’re over two-thirds of a million items…We’re hovering just under 100,000 items, just coming off of our website every single day. Now that’s a lot of millions of people out there, and at some point, we’re going to get noticed. We’re going to cross a threshold…and it won’t be by people who like us.

And at some point—Christ knows that point—He’s going to have to intervene, because the great marvelous work and wonder after that—which is the first phase of the Kingdom—won’t happen unless He comes and sets up His mustard seed Kingdom and puts a wall around us…but puts a wall around all of you from the moment of the reckoning, on, because nobody can lay a glove on us. And the reason nobody can lay a glove on us is Christ recognized they wanted to, and He had to intervene at the right point and make sure they couldn’t.

Dave Pack On Why Christ Delays His Coming

For 80 some years now the Church of God, in its many imaginations, have been declaring that the return of Jesus is imminent.  The world is so corrupt that Jesus was to return in 1975 an dales every year after that. One lying false prophet after another has made that declaration.  From Herbert Armstrong to Rod Meredith, Ron Weinland, to Bob Thiel to James Malm, everyone of them exposed as liars.  But who is really to blame for their "jesus" never showing up on time?  It is YOU!  It is the brethren's fault.  They were not ready.

Dave has another reinterpretation, especially after the last three years of failed prophecy...his "christ" has deliberately scheduled "delays" in his coming.   He is coming on time, but has delayed his coming...which is really on time...but it is not...because he has deliberately delayed it...though it is right on schedule...though it is delayed...but still on time...though it is delayed...

Watch what’s going on, because you’ll also get some comfort in watching the advance of prophecy, because you know days are ticking down. Christ is not going to delay His Coming. He’s going to come right on schedule…which is an interesting discussion we’ve had. He has “scheduled” a delay. So He’s going to delay, but He scheduled it, because the Bible says “the bridegroom tarried.” We just covered that. But it’s a “scheduled” delay. You think about whether or not you think it’s a delay…remembering that it is the evil servant who says “my Lord delays His coming”…That might help you in your contemplations.
