Did Satan shut down Bob's site to stealthy add more heresy or is The Great Bwana's site at overcapacity from the utter nonsense that he posts that is useless to one's Christian walk?
Exposing the underbelly of Armstrongism in all of its wacky glory! Nothing you read here is made up. What you read here is the up to date face of Herbert W Armstrong's legacy. It's the gritty and dirty behind the scenes look at Armstrongism as you have never seen it before! With all the new crazy self-appointed Chief Overseers, Apostles, Prophets, Pharisees, legalists, and outright liars leading various Churches of God today, it is important to hold these agents of deception accountable.

RCG Stepford Moonies Now Celebrating New Moons Because Dave Said To Even Though There Is Nothing Holy About It
New Moon Smiler
The Restored Church of God continues to decay, abandoning “the restored truths” it was once established to uphold. Pastor General David C. Pack leads the charge of 1,300 wide-eyed lemmings racing full-steam ahead with tongues dangling from their mouths. What they are heading for is not the Kingdom of God but a religious mirage hiding a cliff.
As of “The Greatest Untold Story! (Part 479)” on November 11, 2023, The Restored Church of God observes New Moonsas “a given.” Despite David C. Pack's assurances that he would finish "the rest of the story" the following Tuesday, he failed to manifest before the brethren to bless them with his presence.
Instead, they were left to watch Edward L. Winkfield III sweat and smile through “a wonderful” 55 minutes of waffling presumptions. I easily imagined Ed pushing aside other men during his frantic rush to volunteer to be the guy their human idol would choose to be his vapid mouthpiece.
On Tuesday, November 14, 2023, Edward L. Winkfield delivered "Understanding New Moons," revealing they do not really understand New Moons. The message was a supposition exposition sown together with vaguery and assumptions. You could wonder if Ed was trying to convince his audience or himself that New Moons are relevant to the New Testament Church.
It has been a while since I focused on one of Headquarters’ lesser lackeys. Enabler Ed was ordained Stepford Prime last year and is doing all he can to uphold his namesake. From what I hear from departing members, there is no cheerleader in RCG like Edward L. Winkfield. Brethren are well aware of what they are in for when they see his face.
Listening to "Understanding New Moons" was a personal challenge for me. His voice grates on me like nails on a chalkboard, and I have to pitch his audio up like a chipmunk just to stomach him. But it was not always this way.
Ed and I got along very well during my time at Headquarters. I looked up to the guy, and we had some very deep, enriching conversations. Then, he became my manager, and all of that evaporated. Other men who left RCG warned me that Ed was not the sharpest tool in the shed, but I was open to seeing what he could bring to our department. I spent two weeks teaching him how to do my job so he could run Media Production Services into the ground with the assistance of Know-Nothing Ryan Denee and Zero-Useful Ken Orel.
I watched Edward L. Winkfield drive the MPS ship into the rocks, and years of refinement crashed into rubble. Check out their Facebook and YouTube channels to see the type of content they occasionally churn out. Nice job, Ed.
He was also the straw that broke the camel's back for me in March 2021. His sermon, "Stay Immune to Heresy," was the jolt I needed to send in my resignation. He has only gotten worse since.
When I wonder what happened to Edward L. Winkfield III and how he turned into the empty husk of a human being he is today, I think of the 1985 movie “Lifeforce.” This is the way I would like to believe the man I once respected became what he is:
David C. Pack invited Ed up to the Third Floor Executive Imaginarium. While alone, Dave hopped up on the table, grabbed Ed's head, and sucked out all the life force through his mouth and nose. Due to the process of removing Ed’s wisdom, discernment, critical thinking, and biblical honesty, his head was left hollow and ready to be stuffed with rainbow-colored Dave Accolades.
The oddest part is that nobody noticed this transformation. The scariest part is that Ed volunteered and did it willingly.
Ed is but a shadow of his former self. A mindless drone espousing veiled manipulation and blind allegiance to a false prophet. If he walks around with his chest puffed up these days, it is because he always has his Go-Dave Pom-Poms stuffed inside his suit. He is ever-ready with vain praise and foolish enthusiasm.
It makes perfect sense he would give this first New Moon message.
Ed will repeat that God revealed the truth of New Moons. Wade Cox and the members of Christian Churches of God totally agree. If that is the case, God told CCG thirty years ago. Why did it take so long for Only-True-Church-Dave to get the memo?
Ed is too blind to see that when he talks about people getting “very buggy” with the calendar, he perfectly describes his human idol, David C. Pack.
Enjoy this sneak peek. During “The Greatest Unending Story! (Part 480)," David C. Pack changed how he calculates his birthday, which is now based on the Hebrew calendar.
Part 480 – November 18, 2023
@ 04:13 I should just tell you, my birthday ended about fifty minutes ago. You know, you learn about Abib 1 and how God sees years, and I was born on Kislev 5. So I'm 75 today. I thought I could get all the way to December 7th before I was 75. But, you know, if God were counting it, those are those are the the those would be my years.
David C. Pack considers Kislev 5 his birthday, not December 7. Hey, Ed. Is that not getting very buggy with the calendar?
If any of the brethren in RCG tried to pull that move three months ago, their field hireling would have counseled with Headquarters, and that member would have been flagged for going off into “goofy ideas.”
Understanding New Moons – November 14, 2023
@ 02:59 It’s sort of like sacred names. You know, people see the calendar and the understanding of it as special knowledge. You know, I have this special knowledge that other people don’t quite understand…
The mind of Edward L. Winkfield is on autopilot, and even the autopilot is busy with Sudoku. He just described The Restored Church of God. The special church with special understanding given by a special god to a special man so he can give special knowledge to a special people who pay him special money to not-really do special work until a special event occurs on a special day that only the special guy can figure out.
Note Ed’s mention of sacred names. As an unofficially unordained non-prophet/non-psychic, utilizing all that non-real authority that non-title grants me, I believe this is coming:
Sacred Names Will Come to The Restored Church of God.
It almost has to at this point.
@ 03:33 But, God opening our understanding that He expects us to keep New Moons made me realize, “You know what? Wait a minute. There is absolutely nothing wrong with God’s sacred calendar. The calendar is fine.”
@ 04:22 And this blessing (and I call it that specifically), this blessing of being able to observe New Moons really gives us a chance to better understand and appreciate God’s calendar. It gives us a better understanding of what He’s doing.
Wade Cox went out and bought a new pair of tap dancing shoes to celebrate with interpretive movement the joy The Restored Church of God is bestowing upon him.
Ed warns the brethren that New Moon observance comes with carefulness.
@ 06:07 There is a trap to focusing more on New Moons. People can find it easier to be in awe of the things that God created instead of the God who created them.
That is not the trap RCG has fallen into. They are inventing a new observance based on predictive assumptions. They are guessing how it should be done and will feel their way through the dark until whatever seems best is agreed upon.
Wade just stopped tapping.
@ 08:27 Brethren, we should use New Moons and observing New Moons as an additional way to get to know God. It should become an additional way for us to know our Creator.
Surely, how that is done helps that process. Oh, wait. No?
@ 19:59 If there’s any doubt, any concern, any anxiety, any (running out of adjectives) [chuckles] about how God wants us to recognize the day, we should that should no longer be the case, particularly after the last message.
Come on, Ed. Those are nouns. He is doing to words what he did to video.
This was Ed addressing people who were uncertain about how to keep New Moons properly. That is a reasonable issue since there is no instruction in the Bible. It is not even commanded, but that will not stop them.
The last two quotes create a paradox. They admit they do not know how to observe New Moons, "But hey, don't even worry about it." And yet, observing them helps brethren get closer to God. If you cannot observe correctly with any certainty, how does that bring you closer to God?
RCG has become Catholic, where a ritual they create connects them to God regardless of what He commands. As long as they just believe in their hearts, that is probably enough for Him.
@ 20:54 God expects our minds, our focus to be on New Moons. What a wonderful, wonderful thing that God once again has our focus on New Moons as He intended. God clearly wants us to observe New Moons.
Really? Clearly would involve instructions and commands. Neither are found in the Bible for New Moons.
Ed gushes about how wonderful all of this is without proving it. He is adopting the David C. Pack way of doctrine: Just keep talking until something becomes true. That feels familiar.
“If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it,
people will eventually come to believe it.”
– Joseph Goebbels
@ 21:14 Now, many of you are naturally thinking, “How do we observe them?” [laughs] Of course, it’s a great question. Do we observe New Moons on the sunset of the going of the day going into a new moon? Are we or do we do it like today where, at some point during the 24-hour period, that we have a study and have a meal? …Is it different than a Sabbath? Brethren, those are all great questions. All natural questions that you would expect the people of God, people close to God to have.
Like they already do at CCG. I’m sure Wade Cox would be happy to sit Ed down to explain how things should be done correctly so he can pass that invaluable knowledge along to the brethren of The Restored Church of God.
@ 22:02 The answers are coming. [laughs] The answers are coming. The wonderful thing about this is, you know, once God opened Mr. Pack’s mind to it and he explained it to the brethren, it was a few days away. What do we do? Do we not keep it and just wait another month and try to get everything all figured out?
YES. You wait another month, Ed. Jumping the gun on doctrine without doing the proper research while implementing new rituals and ceremonies around it seems the opposite of wise. Dave wants to do what seems right in his own eyes, and you are all too happy to stand at the front of the crowd shouting, "Great is Diana of the Ephesians," even though you do not know why you are cheering.
@ 22:21 No. That’s not what God did. That’s not what God did. It was a few days out, and we did what? We do the best that we can to be able to observe it the way that God would want us to do.
Ed must have suffered some type of head injury rotting away where the critical thinking portion of his mind once lived. Maybe he was having so much fun swimming at the Feast that he forgot he needed to come up for air once in a while. Pursuing his ignorant exuberance, he unintentionally deprived his brain of the vital oxygen needed to keep those cells alive.
Thus, we have the non-critical thinking Edward L. Winkfield III we have today. They admit they do not know what they are doing but are committed to doing it anyhow.
This is their logic: God wants His people to observe New Moons for the first time in centuries but then does not give them ample time to study the matter to do it properly. Instead, Dave’s god blurted it under his breath as he walked out the door, leaving the hirelings at Headquarters no choice but to scramble and do something, whether or not it was correct.
@ 22:33 Obviously, God would appreciate our zealousness. You know, obeying Him and doing the things that He would have us to do.
Spoken like a well-meaning orthodox Jew. Or a devout Catholic. Muslims are known the world over for their “zealousness” too. Yikes. RCG has made a name for itself, poo-pooing "worldly religions" for being zealous about the wrong ideas. The circle is now complete.
@ 22:42 But, again, more information will come. Don’t worry. Don’t worry about it.
The brethren only need to worry about the push to make this an offering day where the ephah will be heavy, but the pocketbook will be light. Wait for that one to come down the pike.
@ 22:46 We serve a God that does things decently and in order.
But just not the first time.
@ 22:50 So, we have absolutely nothing to worry about.
The members of The Restored Church of God have plenty to worry about. David C. Pack assumes titles belonging to Jesus Christ. He has been setting failed dates for the Kingdom of God since 2013. The White Horse of Revelation 6 is no longer a false christ, but the real one. Now, RCG is observing New Moons. There is absolutely plenty to worry about.
@ 24:37 I don't know about you. I am ecstatic that I get to be a part of this. I happen to be sitting up here. But I'm ecstatic at the opportunity to be able to serve God properly. To serve God in a greater in a fuller way.
Ed’s really fuller something, all right. Properly…until things change next time because they will have more time to study and research before pulling the trigger.
@ 48:39 Observing New Moons is a blessing. I don’t have to convince you of that. I’m sure you all know that. But observing New Moons is a blessing. We now have eleven additional times (You know, Trumpets is already a new moon), we have eleven additional times to come together and to think about the things of God to have Bible studies, to fellowship. To come together now on a day where God is beginning a new month and we can better appreciate whatever significance that month may play.
How does a person appreciate “whatever?” Is it possible to appreciate what you do not understand?
Eleven more times to come together is a blessing because the folks in RCG do not have enough opportunities already. Hey Ed. Why not just have all the RCG brethren quit their jobs and move onto the Campus, live in the cabins beside Mirror Lake, and live in tents? Then, everyone can have opportunities 365.25 days a year for fellowship.
@ 50:52 Will it be more of a challenge to incorporate this understanding into our routines? Will it be more of a challenge to do that? Maybe. Maybe.
David C. Pack has taught him well. Even Edward L. Winkfield III knows how to lie. He lied to the entire church right in the face. Maybe Ed? You know the answer is not maybe. It WILL be more of a challenge.
In The Restored Church of God, brethren will be expected to take the day off work to come to Services for a Bible study and a meal. Who is going to prepare and pay for those additional meals? The brethren. That sounds like more of a challenge, not a maybe.
Wade Cox and crew already did the heavy lifting to figure out when this happens. Click here to get more than what you bargained for.
Next Twelve New Moons Per CCG

Thursday, January 11, 2024
Saturday, February 10
Sunday, March 10
Tuesday, April 9
Wednesday, May 8
Thursday, June 6
Saturday, July 6
Sunday, August 4
Tuesday, September 3 - Trumpets
Thursday, October 3
Friday, November 1
Note the seven weekdays RCG members will have to go hat-in-hand to their employers and beg for new days off while still needing the spring and fall days off, too. Imagine the uncomfortable conversations that will take place worldwide about how this lunar observance came about.
“Is it commanded by God?” “No.”
“Does God provide instructions on what to do?” “No.”
“Is it holy time?” “No.”
“Is it a Sabbath?” “No.”
“Is it a Holy Day?” “No.”
“Then, why are you doing it?" "Because Mr. Pack said so."
New Moons will not be a challenge for Headquarters hirelings like Eager Ed because he does not have to worry about taking the day off work, unlike all the non-employee brethren of The Restored Church of God. The fun will really begin when parents are instructed to take their children out of school.
Wow, Ed. Maybe a challenge? Shame on you, Ed. Shame on you.
By their fruits, you shall know them. The fruit of this teaching has already exposed Edward L. Winkfield III as a liar and gullible frontman for David C. Pack’s latest doctrinal malarkey. Smiling the whole way through.
RCG just invented their own brand of Sabbath by admitting it is not a Sabbath but placing the same weight upon the shoulders of the brethren to bear. Headquarters must be abuzz with what disciplinary action to take against brethren who cannot observe it as they assume they should.
@ 52:58 How will we deal with this opportunity that we’ve been given to keep New Moons? How will we deal with it? Where will our attitudes go? Where will our minds go?
Wade Cox is praying on his knees that this could be the big break he has waited decades for. “Their minds need to go to CCG. They need to go to CCG.”
@ 53:11 God wants to see how we’ll deal with it.
This is another test for the brethren of The Restored Church of God because all they have already faced is just not enough for Dave’s god. The drills are still going on just when they thought they were over.
@ 53:25 But, if you have any concerns, cast them on God. He’ll take care of it.
I laughed out loud. Ed is telling everyone, "If you have any concerns, don’t call me, and don’t write CAD. Just let God handle it.” Letting God take care of it is the ultimate “not my problem” response everyone wants to hear from their hireling. At least Ed wrapped up with empty platitudes to make all of this sound righteous.
@ 54:26 Who knows what God has in mind. Brethren, we are just at the beginning. You’re at the precipice of something that is a wonderful thing for God’s people. Brethren, get excited. Rejoice at what God is doing. Get excited. I know you’re excited. But I’m saying get excited. Recognize what God is doing.
@ 55:23 That is a wonderful thing. God would want His people to be observing New Moons before He returns. God would want that. Obviously. And guess what? We’re doing it. Brethren, God’s church is once again observing New Moons, and that is a wonderful thing. Good afternoon.
What is not to be wonderful about? God did not command them. God did not instruct them. They are mentioned in the Bible, and we will keep them in the Kingdom of God. But The Restored Church of God is keeping them anyway. Edward L. Winkfield III is excited and full of smiles about what he does not understand. So much for proving all things.

UCG: We want to be small remnant that pleases God
Jim Tuck has this to say about Thanksgiving and being the true small remnant. Every single COG out there is a small remnant, in their own eyes, and are so special that God works exclusively through them. Who's right? Can you believe any of them?
President Lincoln did an incredible thing in 1863. On April 30 he proclaimed a national day of fasting and prayer! President Lincoln saw Americans forgetting that God gave us this land and every good national blessing! He declared a warning to America:
"It is the duty of nations, as well as of men, to owe their dependence upon the overruling power of God... and to recognize the sublime truth, announced in the Holy Scriptures and proven by all history, that those nations only are blessed whose God is the Lord.... We have been the recipients of the choicest blessings of heaven. We have been preserved, these many years, in peace and prosperity. We have grown in numbers, wealth and power as no other nation ever has grown; but we have forgotten God! We have forgotten the gracious Hand which preserved us in peace, and multiplied and enriched and strengthened us; and we have vainly imagined, in the deceitfulness of our hearts, that all these blessings were produced by some superior wisdom and virtue of our own."
He called upon all Americans to confess the great sin of ingratitude and selfishness to God, and he implored the nation to repent and turn to God! Undoubtedly, God used Lincoln to save our nation at that time.
We are in much more serious trouble now than they were then! Anciently, God warned Israel in Deuteronomy 28:18-19: “And you shall remember the LORD your God, for it is He who gives you power to get wealth, that He may establish His covenant which He swore to your fathers, as it is this day. Then it shall be, if you by any means forget the LORD your God, and follow other gods, and serve them and worship them, I testify against you this day that you shall surely perish.”
When the ways of our peoples please God, and we sincerely thank Him for His loving care for us, He will bestow great blessings upon the peoples of the nation. This is true for the United States, or any other nation on earth if in our ways and prayers we acknowledge God is the source of all our blessings.
When the ways of God’s people please God, then He will bless us as a church and each of us individually. First John 3:22 says this to the nations and us: “And whatever we ask we receive from Him, because we keep His commandments and do those things that are pleasing in His sight.”
The apostle Paul admonished the Church in 1 Thessalonians 5:18, “In everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.”
We do not want to be counted among those who bring condemnation upon our nation for lacking gratitude, but rather we want to endeavor to be that small remnant who desire to please God. In doing so, we will express our thankfulness to God in our prayers, so we can also reap His rich blessings in our lives. Prophetic Times: Be Thankful Always
