Dave Pack: Going Green

 

RCG is Going Green

 

On this glorious day of Elul 24 in the year 2022, WE commemorate the failure of David C. Pack to correctly teach the correct timing of the correct version of Jesus Christ returning to earth on Elul 24 in the year 2013.

 

History repeats itself for those who do not learn from it. Or something like that.

 

Part 392 – September 10, 2022

@ 00:34 Lemme say again, last week [Part 391] cannot be argued or altered. Everything is solid as a rock….Seven years. And a thousand years following Trumpets. And then 10 days of Tribulation before it are irrefutable.

 

The fall Holy Day Offerings "season" is upon us, and brethren inside The Restored Church of God should carefully consider the amount of offerings to give beginning on the Feast of Trumpets this coming Monday.

 

Then give again on Atonement ten days later.

 

Then give again on the first day of the Feast of Tabernacles five days later.

 

Then give one more time on the Last Great Day seven days after that.

 

That is a lot of generosity to spread around, but the helpful folks at Headquarters have given you four FREE green envelopes to stuff with all sorts of goodies for Pastor General David C. Pack to spend as he sees fit.

Giving offerings is a prayerful process. You measure it with the blessings God has given, which is a very personal act of faith.

 

RCG teaches that brethren should not fill out the amount on their checks until after the Offertory message is given. However, since everyone has a finite bank account, there is only so much you can split four ways to give inside the next month.

 

I ask the members of The Restored Church of God to consider two things:

 

1) Who are you giving your money to?

2) What do you expect that money to be used for?

 

 

In all my years in The United Church of God and then in The Restored Church of God, I gave my tithes, offerings, and Common to God. That is why I am not bitter about having no retirement account. I fully expected Jesus Christ to return while working in the Media Production Services department at Headquarters, or I would die working for “The Work of God.”

 

Life did not turn out as I expected.

 

If you give your money to God and do not care how it will be used, then your reward is in heaven, and this article is not for you. (But you may want to keep reading…)

 

If you are giving your money to The Restored Church of God or David C. Pack and want it to “do the work,” then consider the following:

 

David C. Pack is a false apostle and a false prophet. That is not an opinion but a sad fact of history.

 

In 2022 alone, he has declared himself Elijah, then not Elijah, then “has already been” Elijah, then not Elijah “the prophet,” and then “Elijah is a title.” Remember when he admitted that he has no dunamis? Yes, you do.

 

If the man is so uncertain about who and what he is, should that not concern you?

 

Jesus Christ was supposed to return on Av 1, Av 2, Av 3, Av 4, Av 5, Av 7, Av 10, Av 15, Av 20, Av 30, Elul 1, Elul 15, Elul 20, Elul 21, Elul 22, Elul 23, and Elul 24 (which is today). This list does not even go back into Tammuz or before. Remember when it was Passover? Yes, you do.

 

Do you actually believe that the Day of the Lord will begin next Monday? According to Mr. Pack, since it is blue skies today in Wadsworth on Elul 24, you will be waiting at least another year. Guess in your mind how long you think Mr. Pack will be silent on this matter. Do you think he will commit to a one-year wait?

 

Since I am just an antichrist serpent more wicked “almost” than the devil, I think Mr. Pack will make more announcements before Trumpets and will hijack Services on Monday so he can “rush to call out more clarity that is stronger than before.” That is a non-prophet/non-psychic guess based on his pattern.

 

You have given offerings this year. You have given Common this year.

 

Part 378 – June 15, 2022

@ 32:10 And God’s people around the world, I’m telling you, if you’re sitting on funds, don’t! You’re gonna lose it soon after, anyway. So, why not gain eternal life with it?

 

Part 382 – July 17, 2022

@ 09:38 …and I’m gonna tell you why I still believe that Jesus Christ may just be, in essence, hours away…brethren, you cannot change July 28^th…

 

You gave faithfully, but Mr. Pack did not put those funds into actively and effectively preaching the gospel. Instead, he bought a property long-coveted after because he hated looking at the uneven grass inside the Campus. That is not a joke.

If you are learning about the purchase of the one-half million dollar Campus property from me and not from the RCG leadership, ask yourself why.

I offer this handful of Memberberries.

Remember when the Campus was first developed in 2013, and Church Administration would announce when a new property was acquired? Or from the lectern by Mr. Pack? They were proud in those days to share with the brethren the growth of the Campus and what God was doing in Wadsworth.

Then, the announcements stopped. I noticed it while I was at Headquarters. I would only learn about a new acquisition by accident during fellowship with one of the landscaping guys. I would ask how his week went, and I would get an answer, "We're clearing out the XYZ house." "Oh, we bought another house?"

Even the staff were not kept up-to-speed as in years past. You would just “find out” about another house being bought as renovations began.

That is why, dear members of The Restored Church of God around the world, you would not know that RCG paid $500,000+ for a fixer-upper if you had not read it on “one of those hate websites.”

Shame on you for wanting to stay informed. This is a timeline that presents facts, not rumors.

·      On May 28, during Part 371, Mr. Pack pushed Common with Pentecost approaching so that he could pump up that Holy Day offering.

·      On June 15, during Part 378, he pushed Common again while telling the brethren that Jesus Christ was returning soon and their salvation depended upon them taking action. The same day the Akron Road house listed for sale at $600,000.

·      On July 17, he told the church that the Day of the Lord was July 28^th and Jesus Christ was only "hours away."

·      On July 20 (three days later), RCG submitted a $500,000 offer on the 786 Akron Road property.

·      On August 4, RCG put the house at 799 Hartman Road for sale at $269,900.

·      On August 31, RCG mowed the lawn at the 786 Akron Road property after taking possession.

·      On September 9, the 799 Hartman Road sale was completed for $280,000.

 

Because of your willingness to sacrifice, Mr. Pack does not have to. Due to your fundraising efforts and cheerful giving, he can now enjoy his evening walks on the Campus and not have to be offended by the eyesore that plagued him for years. Uncut grass.

The “ministers” at Headquarters would like this to be kept a secret. It must irk Mr. Pack to no end that this “mystery” has been revealed to the outside world.

Mr. Pack, that which you do in the dark will be brought into the light of day.

Headquarters will not announce this to the membership unless they have to.

 

Ask your local minister or write to Headquarters to investigate if this is true.

 

Also, consider the vague comments about “church growth” or “we’re booming.” No hard numbers are given to back that up. Are there more people and more new faces at the Feast this year? If you are single, are there more dating opportunities this year than in the past?

Consider how Mr. Pack described the RCG UnOpen House. Did he say “100” members of the Wadsworth Chamber of Commerce and vendors attended?

Part 392 – September 10, 2022

@ 01:30 Well-attended. Probably a good hundred people came.

Out of 1,200+ that were invited, do you consider “a good hundred” as “well-attended?”

Did Mr. Schleifer present the ministry's growth in his Bible study on June 24 with the correct premise that you measure those numbers against three years and not just one? No. You can read the article about that here.

The point is: When you cannot trust the words from the mouths of your ministers, who can you trust? You already know that Mr. Pack is not a man of his word. As much as you want to believe him, he keeps giving you reasons not to. Listen to what he says and remember that.

Please consider all this when you wake up tomorrow morning, and Jesus Christ is still not here. Consider this when you are about to stuff your green envelope on Monday. If you are in Services on the Feast of Trumpets, then David C. Pack was wrong again.

Who are you giving your money to, and how will it be used? Just consider…

Did Bob Thiel Just Step In A PIle Of Red Heifer Droppings?

 

From a reader:

Gentlemen —

Over at COGWriter, we are told:

Let’s look at some additional prophecies related to the throne of David:

⁴⁵ …King Solomon shall be blessed, and the throne of David shall be established before the Lord forever. (1 Kings 2:45) 

² …Hear the word of the Lord, O king of Judah, you who sit on the throne of David, you and your servants and your people who enter these gates! (Jeremiah 22:2) 

¹⁷ “For thus says the Lord: ‘David shall never lack a man to sit on the throne of the house of Israel; ¹⁸ nor shall the priests, the Levites, lack a man to offer burnt offerings before Me, to kindle grain offerings, and to sacrifice continually.'” (Jeremiah 33:17-18) 

The above passages make clear that the throne of David was to last. Since scripture cannot be broken (John 10:35), then someone has to be on that throne now. Let me also state that there have been Levites ever since Jeremiah 33:17-18–the fact that they do not do their original biblical role for offerings does NOT change the fact that they still exist, which is all that scripture requires for them. 

I think Bob just stepped in a pile of Red Heifer Droppings.

His point about the Levites is sensible: the fact that they do not do “their original biblical role for offerings does NOT change the fact that they still exist, which is all that scripture requires for them.”

So surely that same logic enables us to say with complete confidence that there doesn’t need to be a man (or woman) currently sitting "on the throne of the house of Israel”— there just needs to be someone somewhere who COULD be sitting on that throne — not doing their original biblical role for throne-sitting does not change the fact that he(or she) still exists, which is all that scripture requires for them.

So even if the the English-speaking Nations are Israelish (which I’m not necessarily saying) nothing requires a continuity of kings (or queens) to have been sitting on David’s Throne all these many centuries, just that somewhere there is a descendant of David who COULD be sitting on that Throne.  That person does not even need to know that he (or she) is that person.

Bob just threw the Throne out the window.
