Dave Pack…If, I have a heart attack

 

David C. Pack of The Restored Church of God was preaching that biblical world conditions have been met to signal the time of the end. Oh, noes. 

During "The Greatest Unending Story! (Part 427)" on March 7, 2023, he inserted the idea of his own death via heart attack while telling the brethren the Day of Christ was close. 

Two recent articles covered his morbid preoccupation. One about his self-cursing. The other is about his death wish. 

In Part 427, he moves the goalpost from Purim to Friday, March 10 at sunset for Jesus Christ to come and establish the Kingdom to Israel. 

An article is forthcoming.

Dave Pack's Death Wish

 

Death Wish

 

David C. Pack of The Restored Church of God is preoccupied with death. Whether it is about who he knows the Three Shepherds of Zechariah 11 to be or the Lake of Fire being “put to good use” to punish his perceived enemies. More ominously, he has been mentioning his own.

 

By his desperate attempts to convince himself and the membership how on track he is, he shows no fear of God, mingling the correctness of his new teachings with his own death.

 

He would be better off saying, “I swear to God this is true.” Instead, he cursed himself twice. He is absolutely unaware that by invoking God’s authority to give a sermon, anything he says from the lectern is "under oath," so to speak.

 

During “The Greatest Untold Story! (Part 421)” on February 18, he taught the Kingdom to Israel would be exactly one month long. That “one month” had fluctuated from shorter to longer and back. But, during Part 421, it was precisely 30 days. That would never be changed.

 

Part 421 – February 18, 2023

@ 59:41 But it cannot change the duration of the month. I will die before I believe otherwise.

 

Days later, he extended one month to mean at least 33 ½ days with more to be added. It turns out he could change the duration of the month and believed otherwise.

 

This was the first self-curse.

 

One week later, Part 423 solidified the Day of the Lord would begin on April 21 at sunset, which begins the Hebrew month of Iyar. The previous Day of the Lord teaching was that it would start on Abib.

 

David C. Pack needed to counter the doubts of his audience after weeks of teaching the wrong month, so he felt compelled to utter a second, “I swear to God this is true.”

 

Part 423 – February 25, 2023

@ 29:41 So, I wanna state one last time, unequivocally, and I’ll just absolutely die on this ground. This is the hill I die on. It is impossible that Abib does not close with the Day of the Lord. Impossible. It’s unbiblical.

 

The last moment of Abib is on April 21 at 8:12 PM ET. This was the second self-curse.

 

There should have been little surprise when he did this a third time during Part 426.

 

Part 426 – March 4, 2023

@ 42:23 I know that the way has been prepared, and we all understand, and if we had to wait ten years, or until I died, no one will ever tell me we don’t have this exactly right.

 

The day and the hour for the return of Jesus Christ were no longer unknown. During the period known as Purim or Esther's Fast, Jesus Christ would return the Kingdom to Israel and go back into heaven, leaving an invisible Elijah the Prophet in charge of announcing the revised gospel to the world.

 

For it to be “exactly right,” the Kingdom to Israel should have begun Monday morning at 10:40 AM ET. He gave himself two more days of pad by mentioning he was unsure because it could be Tuesday or Wednesday. This was the loophole for “no man knows the day and hour” because he installed a range of three potential days with likely hours.

 

Physical reality rejected David C. Pack’s teaching. And so has he. He did not "have this exactly right," and he already knew by sunset Monday.

 

 

An email announcing Part 427 was sent to the members yesterday.

 

But, before you read it:

 

Part 425 – March 4, 2023

@ 54:35 This is clearly the end of the line. Nobody could possibly believe just this far in that there’s any more time for messages. That’s not remotely possible.

 

Part 426 – March 4, 2023

@ 30:39 …there’s no chance I’m gonna speak again.

 

***************

March 6, 2023

 

Dear brethren, 

 

Please note that Mr. Pack plans to give a live Bible Study tomorrow, Tuesday, March 7. 

 

For planning purposes, the live stream in Member Services will be opened a few minutes before the message starts at 5:00 PM (Eastern Time.)

 

The last two sentences of Mr. Pack’s latest message became the reason for a final brief message tomorrow. One crucial matter redefined our short wait.

 

For those unable to join live, the message will be available to watch afterward.

 

Warm regards, 

 

Church Administration

 

***************

 

For context, this is how Part 426 ended.

 

Part 426 – March 4, 2023

@ 43:16 Look, I’m gonna wait’ll next Sabbath, which is the last moad. However this plays out in case this is some kind of guideline. But, I cannot get around “kay-yom” [Hebrew variant?] “this day, today.” It has to be the 13^thor the 14^th. Godspeed, whichever day it is. Good night.

 

Today is Adar 14. Tomorrow is Adar 15. Whatever "crucial matter" redefines our short wait, be sure it just got a bit longer.

 

I wonder if the Packian Triad of Fraud discovered Google Calendar and that Shushan Purim is observed in Jerusalem tomorrow, March 8.

No matter what new twist the Third Floor Executive Imaginarium produces, it will lead to the same place: nowhere.

 

 

David C. Pack’s death-focused statements create a new perspective for other comments tinting his words with a sense of foreboding.

 

Part 426 – March 4, 2023

@ 31:06 God would’ve known that I would last speak, I believe, on the 12^th of Adar.

 

@ 43:07 If I had to wait out my life and some other messenger came along and did this, I feel unbelievably privileged.

 

Part 423 – February 25, 2023

@ 35:30 I mean, every time I think of my last name, I think of the Passover season. But we will not be active. We will not be active…for any of the Days of Unleavened Bread. Your voice and mine, all of our voices will be silenced before that.

 

An eerie feeling sweeps over me when I read these quotes. 

 

Part 8 – December 26, 2015

@ 32:31 “When a prophet speaks in the name the LORD, if the thing follow not, nor come to pass, that is the thing which the LORD has not spoken, but the prophet has spoken it presumptuously: you shall not be afraid of him.” And other places say he dies. That doesn’t seem to make some people afraid. Some people still go out and prophesy. They'll say things that don't come to pass. They're false, and they get the death penalty because any true prophet knows he never speaks on his own.

 

The man has no idea what he is actually saying and who he is referring to.

 

Part 390 – August 27, 2022

@ 53:44 It'll be good to see the Lake of Fire put to good use for people who hate God, and they would ruin the lives of others. They need to die.

 

David C. Pack’s death wish has been going on for a while.

 

Part 197 – August 7, 2019

@ 1:34:10 I didn’t understand the announcement period. I understand all of that now…You couldn’t put a gun to my head and talk me out of it.

 

Part 206 – September 30, 2019

@ 2:08:45 “…It’s a coincidence Mr. Pack is finishing his Series on the Feast of Trumpets.” …we’re done. I will not come back. I had to ‘bout put a gun to my own head to come up here.

 

Part 223 – December 10, 2019

@ 2:09:12 Never gonna set a date again. But you couldn't put a gun to both sides of my head and ever get me to deny all those verses, including this one we didn't know.

 

Part 284 – January 28, 2021

@ 1:06:23 I didn’t contrive this. I didn’t come this far in my life to lie and go into, you know, and go into eternal death. I'm telling you, it just turned out the very last message is on the 15th of Shevat, which is called “the Day of Trees…”

 

Part 389 – August 24, 2022

@ 50:46 The three Kingdom picture anchored around Trumpets is immutable. I would die before I would give up that truth. There is no question the Prophetic Kingdom Solar System that we have built is right.

 

Part 411 – December 24, 2022

@ 04:53 Now, today, people cannot kill me because they don't wanna hear anymore. But they can bail out. And many do.

 

 

The Series will not stop until The Restored Church of God financially collapses or David C. Pack dies. Those are the only two ways this will end.

 

David C. Pack is not preaching the truths of God. He is not ending the Mystery of God. He is not an apostle. He is not a prophet. He is not Elijah. He is not the Seventh Angel. He is not the Goodman of the House. No, he is not a good man.

 

He lies to himself, and he lies to the members of The Restored Church of God.

 

But God is not mocked.

 

Throughout the Series, God allowed things to come from David C. Pack's mouth that he did not understand. The man cannot hear his own words.

 

I fear for him.

 

Out of the abundance of the heart, the mouth speaks. It would be better for him if his self-curse statements came from his own heart. At least in that way, you could understand his chronic insecurity was compounded by a host of mental disorders to create a perfect storm compelling him to swear without swearing.

 

His yes is beyond yes. His no is beyond no. The origin of that beyond is why I fear for the man.

 

It is more frightening to consider if spiritual forces placed those comments in his mouth.

 

David C. Pack has a death wish for himself.

 

My hope is that he repents before it is too late.

LCG Tells Member To Not Be Misled By False Teachers.

 

LCG continues to get subtle digs in against apostate Bob Thiel and his apostasy. LCG has been pretty effective in keeping its members away from Bob, though he did a pretty good job of that before he was kicked out by his spiritual Daddy, Rod Meredith. Bob thought many LCG members would follow him and none of them did. 

Remember boys and girls, as long as you study the approved scriptures and interpretations by LCG leaders then you cannot be led astray.

The problem with the highlighted section below is that they are told to grow in grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, someone who rarely gets discussed until it is close to Passover. Since they refuse to follow the New Covenant and dwell on what was accomplished, they continue to stagnate, much like Bob Thiel and the rest of the COG's. 

LCG's admits its mission is to point people to the millennium. That's why Jesus cannot be the focus, as it should be.

Our Challenge to Grow: We are admonished in the Scriptures to “grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ” (2 Peter 3:18). One reason is so that we will not be misled by false teachers. The Apostle Paul encouraged Timothy to diligently study the Scriptures in order to be able to correctly explain the Truth and become a more effective teacher and minister (2 Timothy 2:15–16; 1 Timothy 4:12–15). We are also told that the “work of the ministry” is to help God’s people grow in “the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God” (Ephesians 4:12–14). The Scriptures reveal that Christians are called to become kings, priests, and teachers who will point all human beings to the Truth in the millennium (Revelation 5:10; Isaiah 30:20–21). With this in mind, let’s take advantage of every opportunity to grow in our knowledge and understanding of the Scriptures—through Bible study, listening to sermons, and meditating on what we learn and hear—so that we can prepare to teach God’s way of life to the world.
Have a profitable Sabbath,
