Dave Pack: Double Minded (Part 1)

 



Double Minded (Part 1)

 

David C. Pack keeps the brethren of The Restored Church of God on an unhealthy cycle of religious confusion so bizarre that a rational explanation as to why people stay defies logic. A reasonable answer regarding what keeps people attending evades the understanding of the discerning Bible-literate.

 

David C. Pack is a documented false prophet, false apostle, and blaspheming hypocritical liar. The happenings behind the security gates of the Headquarters Campus are a case study of self-delusion.

 

The Pastor General is self-deluded that God is using him to teach anything during “The Greatest Untold Story!” Series. The hirelings at Headquarters are self-deluded that their blind allegiance to a corrupted, broken-headed man somehow helps protect the flock. The members of The Restored Church of God are self-deluded that if they just hang on a little bit longer, David C. Pack will finally be proven correct, and the Kingdom of God will arrive just as they have been taught.

 

I would be self-deluded if I believed I could bring down that vile organization. God willing, when The Restored Church of God implodes, it shall be due to the efforts of David C. Pack. Not me. He is his own worst enemy. He is his own worst critic. Only a “hate website” would dare document what he said and remind everyone later when those words prove to be terribly inconvenient.

 

 

James 1:8

A double minded man is unstable in all his ways.

 

No one in the Church of God landscape is more unstable in all his ways than Pastor General David C. Pack of The Restored Church of God. Wade Cox might feel pretty good about himself reading that, but the border of Kookyville extends far beyond the bounds of Wadsworth. It reaches all the way to Australia.

 

Despite the constant stream of toxic malarkey spilling from the sewers of the Headquarters Campus onto the streets of Wadsworth, my brief personal hiatus from writing articles has revealed a beneficial result. Much like during the RCG Ministerial Conference, letting Dave blather uninterrupted for a few messages reveals patterns you might otherwise not see.

 

David C. Pack has an embarrassing habit of validating exrcg.org. Quippy observations, such as, "Dave spends half the Series revising the other half," prove an on-the-nose reality. The past few weeks solidified that.

 

Part 480, on November 18, “proved” that the Kingdom of God would begin on Abib 1 (April 8, 2024) and “proved” that the First Kingdom to Israel is one year long before the other three Kingdoms. The Kingdom structure returned to four instead of three.

 

Part 481, on November 21, “proved” Nebuchadnezzar was the Sixth, Seventh, and Eighth Kings of Revelation 17. An Elijahn Period was “proven” to be before the Kingdom of God. The Kingdom of God structure was “proven” to be 1-1-7-1000 instead of the previous 1-7-1000.

 

But…

 

Part 482, on November 30, "disproved" the First Kingdom to Israel lasts one year. The Four-Kingdom structure was “disproven” and returned to three. Even the new First One-Year Kingdom of God was “disproven” and is now less than one full year. The Elijahn Period before the Kingdom of God was “disproven.” The Kingdom of God arriving on Abib 1 was “disproven” and then “proven” to be on Tevet 10 (December 21), which happens to be the Winter Solstice.

 

Part 483, on December 2, "disproved" Nebuchadnezzar was the Sixth King of Revelation 17 and “assumed it had to be” Russian President Vladimir Putin. Again. Cheshvan 1 was “proven” to be a biblical mimic of Tevet 10 that God used to hide His true intent. A year was "proven" to be calculated by measuring the earth's rotation around the sun instead of the lunar cycles.

 

Parts 482 and 483 dismantled Parts 480 and 481. This necessary exercise must be more drills by Dave's god to ensure his gullible blind worshippers are adequately prepared for more electrifying nothing to happen on December 21, 2023. This is an upgrade from the further-out stunning nothing previously scheduled for April 8, 2024.

 

The Kingdom of God Arrives*

Tevet 10 – December 21, 2023

At 11:35 PM ET

 

*Subject to frequent change.

 

While examining the content for Parts 480–483, going back another week exposes more uncomfortable David C. Pack moments.

 

Part 479 – November 11, 2023 

@ 11:21 So, it's worth considering how much restoration has occurred. Certainly, there's been no Kingdom. We know there aren't four kingdoms.

 

@ 11:48 We're waiting for a year. We're gonna have to look at that for a final time and see if we can eliminate all doubt. And I mean, once and for all. And I'm gonna make a prediction. I'm gonna predict if I could. There will not be a single one of you in this room today or ever after. Not one of you. Not one of you. And I mean, we will have even a half a doubt about exactly when the First Kingdom of God arrives. It will be impossible for you to doubt it. I'm gonna destroy every single point of resistance in your mind…

 

@ 59:45 What I could do without giving you a lot more material, I could just say, “Let’s have dinner right now.” There is no way in this life the Kingdom is gonna come before April 8th. There’s no Fourth Kingdom…we’re not waiting for the Kingdom until April 8th…But, I wanna remove all doubt.

 

@ 1:24:29 And, obviously, God allowed me to go down that road or we’da been looking for the wrong year or the year (we could say), the right year at the very very wrong time.

 

 

Empty Promises of Bigger, Better, and More Accurate

 

Part 480 – November 18, 2023

@ 02:32 I wanna take you on a journey today. I’ve mentioned to some people this might be the most interesting of the Series. I’ve said that. I don’t know if I’ve said it quite that way, but it’ll certainly be (arguably) the most important and I guess (arguably) the most interesting. We’ll see.

 

@ 03:53 Because those who have waited a long time and good things come to those who wait, get to hear those kinds of things…and what we're going to hear tonight. Not for me. Not I'm bringing you wonderful things. I'm a vessel. That's all. And I truly do mean that.

 

David C. Pack is a vessel. Just not for the spirit he assumes.

 

Part 481 – November 21, 2023

@ 28:56 …because the Mystery of God has been ending. And, so let’s continue to end it.

 

Part 482 – November 30, 2023

@ 00:03 Well, wonders never cease (in a way) in this Series. We’ve seen big things happen.

 

Pause.

 

RCG has seen nothing happen. Zero. Zilch. That is the problem. There has been unceasing talk with no actions behind it. Not a single manifested moment since 2013 suggests God is backing David C. Pack or his hireling enablers in The Restored Church of God.

 

Continue.

 

@ 00:10 And we suddenly discover in the Scriptures didn’t didn’t know them. Today will be no exception. In fact, you’ll hear a couple today.

 

@ 00:43 We're gonna learn much more, including more simplicity. I wanna say that word slowly. Simplicity. And simplicity came to turn on one enormous transcendent discovery that almost clears up everything in one stroke.

 

Sounds like the Swiss Army Knife of discoveries. It is hard to know if he meant dissolving the Four-Kingdom structure, switching from Abib 1 to Tevet 10, or the One-Year Kingdom is not a year.

 

@ 01:09 After eight years, there it was. The problem becomes when the final correct picture emerges. As it will largely today. There'll be some follow-up Sabbath. The whole Bible lines up around it [chuckles]. And what verses and clarifications to bring out is a real challenge because everything lines up and lined up suddenly in a way I never expected.

 

The words "final" and "correct" need to be permanently removed from the RCG nomenclature.

 

Part 483 – December 2, 2023

@ 00:39 We’re gonna essentially undo one more thing today. Or maybe that’s a wrong term. Clear up a very powerful point on everybody’s mind. I wanna show you what I discovered about the only day that the Kingdom to Israel or Kingdom of God can begin...I wanna show you there’s only one possible day this can happen. I would say I’m quite certain it will happen on this day. I believe that the Bible always said if the Goodman of the House knew what day it was, he would tell the church. I believe I now know, and I'm gonna tell you.

 

@ 01:32 This will be this I hope you will find this beyond riveting. The Bible is a complex book. I’ve learned that with prophecy, you almost cannot be careful enough. No matter how hard you try.

 

@ 02:42 So, let’s now be more careful with perhaps the most central topic on every mind in the room. Slow and easy does it.

 

@ 07:12 But, if God wanted us to know He would have to put it in His word and then He would have to lead me to find it. I believe I have completely broken the code to knowing when and how long is the Acceptable Year and, therefore, the length of the First Kingdom.

 

@ 1:03:36 If I’ve got this right, there’s not a chance in the world Christmas will ever be kept again.

 

Using his god’s authority and the perfection of which his uttered statements become facts of history, you can guarantee we will all experience the December 25, 2023, Christmas holiday in full, peaceful glory thanks to David C. Pack never being able to get anything right.

 

 

Happy Birfday, Dave

 

For a church that shuns the observance of birthdays as being non-biblical and dabbling with demons, David C. Pack seems to find a way to mention it each year.

 

Part 480 – November 18, 2023

@ 04:13 I should just tell you my birthday ended about 50 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 would be my years.

 

It was poor timing that smiley Stepford Prime Edward L. Winkfield made a critical comment about how unstable people in the church can see the Hebrew calendar.

 

Understanding New Moons – November 14, 2023

@ 02:34 In many ways, before God revealed the truth of New Moons, how many of us probably approached the calendar. God’s sacred calendar. I’ve seen people personally I’ve seen people get very buggy when it comes to the calendars.

 

Brad might have whispered this into Dave’s ear because Dave did a complete reversal on his birthday point a few days later when he realized a year is not measured by the moon but by the sun.

 

Part 483 – December 2, 2023

@ 12:58 I’ll go back to my birthday for a moment. Was my birthday Kislev 5 a couple weeks ago? Or is it this Thursday on December 7th?

 

If brethren brought up their birthdays as much as Dave does, the local hireling would have to have a sidebar with that person and tell them RCG does not celebrate birthdays, and focusing on it too much shows signs of a wrong spiritual condition.

 

@ 13:07 I’m now, I mean, it’s a funny question. I’m either 75 or not as I’m sitting here. If I went by lunar years (and nobody does), I’m a 75-year-old man. But, if you go by solar years (and everybody does), I’ve got five days to go before I’m 75.

 

@ 13:38 So, I could not technically go out there and honestly tell people I’m 75.

 

David C. Pack is incapable of being honest even when he tries to. Ed, please test my theory.

 

James 1:8

A double minded man is unstable in all his ways.

 

 

The Three-Four Kingdom Shuffle

 

The state of RCG theology is visually displayed on the Tammuz Cooking Table.





If Dave wanted to be technically honest with the Part 482 table, “1” should not be in front of the First Kingdom glass because it is not an entire year.

 

This issue of whether there are three measures of the Kingdom of God or four has been a tug of war for a long time. Just to add a little more context regarding this elusive Kingdom to Israel:

 

Part 437 – 10 days

Part 438 – 4 months

Part 440 – You cannot know

Part 441 – 6 months

Part 442 – 10 days

Part 443 – 29 ½ days (3.5-2-14-6.5-3.5)

Part 445 – 1 month (18-2-6.5-3.5)

Part 446 – Does not exist

Part 447 – 10 days

Part 448 – 1 month (18-2-6.5-3.5)

Part 451 Part 1 – 3 months

Part 452 – Does not exist. There is a Sixth Head “breakout” period instead.

Part 463 – IS the Kingdom of God now called “the Initial Kingdom.”

Part 464 – There is an unnamed First Fourth Kingdom.

Part 465 – There is no First Fourth Kingdom.

Part 479 – There is no Fourth Kingdom.

Part 480 – The Kingdom to Israel is the First Fourth Kingdom.

Part 482 – There is no First Fourth Kingdom.

 

This is how David C. Pack wants everyone to believe the True Living God operates and that He is behind the babblings of “The Greatest Unending Story!”

 

Part 480 – November 18, 2023

@ 47:41 It’s just this no longer can be the First Kingdom. There has to be one in front of it. And you’ve seen me go for years trying to figure that out. Because the Bible is written in a curious way. It’s just in a curious way. In a book where SOME PEOPLE can think THEY see one Kingdom, my struggle was always, Are there three of four? Three or four? Three of four? Four-three-three-four and back and forth. I never could figure out where's the gold standard. I need a smoking gun, not a smoking cigarette butt. I need something that's really strong that says the Kingdom of God starts the year. Christ seemed to say it. And that’s one of the things that just would never stop haunting me.

 

@ 53:28 So, no. There would not be sacrifices in a Kingdom before that. And I didn’t really think that through.

 

The entire Series could be framed by Dave not really thinking that through.

 

@ 1:10:46 Maybe there'll be some still dumb enough to quit because we go back to Four Kingdoms.

 

It would have been dumb to leave RCG over Four Kingdoms because that only lasted twelve days. Would those people beg to return after Dave proved them right?

 

A few moments gave the impression that David C. Pack was capable of mild self-awareness.

 

Part 482 – November 30, 2023

@ 01:47 There are two mistakes I really wish I could undo. I’ll come to those. They’ll become clear. But, it will take several messages to clear everything up to this place of absolute simplicity.

 

The place of absolute simplicity for The Restored Church of God is that David C. Pack has no idea what he is doing and is not being led by God. He is a blaspheming liar and hypocrite teaching antichrist theology. He is a false apostle, false prophet, and false teacher. He is an angel of light so terribly bad at his fundamental purpose that his incompetence is more transparent than the glass on the table.

 

@ 09:27 But, let’s just at least acknowledge. So, the First Kingdom is not a year. Or they [disciples] wouldn’t have thought it wasn’t.

 

@ 20:53 So, we’ve destroyed two things in one. We’ve destroyed two things in one. The idea that there is a full year before another year is destroyed. They’re all here together. The second thing that’s destroyed is this [Second 1-Year Kingdom] iddn’t a year. It can’t be because we’re not allowed to know how long it is. Or at least they weren’t. Maybe we are. Maybe we aren’t. But, there’s no possible way you raise all Israel and have two kingdoms before the Day of the Lord. That’s ludicrous. Nobody could think that.

 

Except for David C. Pack while teaching Part 481 three days earlier. Since all the hirelings and members of The Restored Church of God walk in perfect unity, they were also dupable idiots for thinking that on November 30. Well, unless they secretly disagreed with that heresy and faked agreement with their fellow brethren, choosing to keep their mouths shut and just go along with it until Dave changed his mind again.

 

@ 21:49 We outta go back to the old glass because it’s not a year either. This year’s gone [First Kingdom to Israel]. And this [First Kingdom of God] year is less. And I barely nudged into the edge of the proof I’m gonna give you.

 

All of Dave's lists and proofs and metrics and stone-cold math amount to nothing because he proves them to all be worthless when he changes his mind. This is the pattern of “The Greatest Unending Story!” Series. Dave will spend hours and hours proving nonsense. Then, spend hours and hours disproving his own hours and hours of nonsense. This is all done with the approval of the cowards at Headquarters.

 

Confusion and uncertainty are the hallmarks of The Restored Church of God. David C. Pack is the chief buffoon misleading a den of willful buffoons as they roll toward the cliff of disaster. There is nothing too bizarre to teach, and no doctrine is too outlandish to adopt with feigned wide-eyed enthusiasm.

 

James 1:8

A double minded man is unstable in all his ways.

 

It appears that David C. Pack is in the Bible, after all.

Garner Ted Armstrong: Babies are born "criminal"


Is it any wonder why the Church of God is such a messed up pile of rotting garbage in 2023? Today's Church of God ministry is the product of this kind of thinking in the church. Since they were treated as wanton sinful "criminals" as children they lash out today as adults to demean their followers by attempting to lower them as chattel beneath them while warning members to keep their emotions stifled and thus compliant to proper church government. 

For years, I have insisted HUMAN NATURE IS CRIMINAL. Sometimes, people are shocked to hear me say a baby is BORN "criminal." Sweet, precious, lovely though he may be to his parents — a tiny, struggling, helpless little life. He is nevertheless capable of huge passions — and unacceptable behavior. 
 
Every baby must be TAUGHT self-control. He is not born with any instincts of kindness, patience, goodness, love, understanding, emotional control, honesty, integrity, faithfulness. 
 
He is born, rather, with a pull in his nature toward SELF. His first instincts are totally SELFISH — directed inwardly.

Each individual child, black or white, must be TAUGHT everything from control of his bodily processes to control of his emotions. (quote from here)
