RCG/Dave Pack Newsflash: The Kingdom Comes on March 18, 2026! Oops. Let's Change That to February 2. Uh Oh. I Really Meant February 1.

 

RCG/Dave Pack Newsflash:

The Kingdom Comes on March 18, 2026!

Oops. Let's Change That to February 2.

Uh Oh. I Really Meant February 1.

David C. Pack of The Restored Church of God enjoys the thrill of finding the day that cannot tarry after ten long years of toil and disappointment. Ever-rushing to call out recycled malarkey, the Pastor General is mentally and physically exhausted as he continues to hunt his religious white whale across the stormy seas of Bible prophecy.

Dave knows that unless he can deliver the goods by nailing down the date for the arrival of ANYTHING biblical, he is just another wacky former Ambassador College graduate with a non-credentialed degree in outdated theological tomfoolery.

Just like his doppelgänger, Gerald Flurry, unless he accurately discovers the real start of the Kingdom to Israel, or the Kingdom of God, the return of Jesus Christ, the beginning of the 1335, or actual worldwide calamity, he will need to face the reality that he is not a prophet, not an apostle, and God had nothing to do with the decades of his blowhard meanderings.

With each prophetic failure, the picture must shift to continue the illusion of legitimacy. Keeping brethren perpetually on the hook, he and his enablers sell the concept that their journey's end is just over the horizon. They just need to hang on and endure one more shift in understanding.

The Kingdom Will Come on March 18, 2026!

Dave was all piss and vinegar, stewing in his spirit-inspired certainty during “The Greatest Untold Story! (Part 615)” on January 3, 2026, when he landed back on Abib 1 for the fourth year in a row. 

Part 615 – January 3, 2026
@ 00:42 Only when all competing dates passed before the last possible date can you have full confidence a date cannot tarry.

@ 07:58 But I do know absolutely and completely when the this Kingdom [7-year] comes, and we're gonna go home knowing that much today. Absolutely. I waited, I was suspicious, I've been suspicious. And I'm gonna show you we finally are gonna reach the date where it's impossible that it's wrong, and you'll know that.

It must give the brethren the warm fuzzies when Dave gets all absolute about his current belief. Here are words Dave likes to say that never age well:

@ 13:17 But I I will I will stake everything on what I'm gonna tell you…

@ 13:40 How about it's about time to say the 7-Year Kingdom begins when all the others did on Abib 1. So if you want to write it down, put down March 18th.

He went on and on and on about how March 18 was the day they had been waiting for. Abib 1 is “the day that cannot tarry,” because this one is as hard as diamond, and the brethren will be “absolutely unable to doubt March 18.”

The brethren were unable to doubt it longer than Dave was because he shifted his tune the following week during “The Greatest Untold Story! (Part 616)” on January 10.

The Kingdom Will Come on February 2, 2026!

Dave started off with manipulative word games to lull his worshipers into a false sense of security.

Part 616 – January 10, 2026
@ 01:06 We are seven years for a kingdom right here [7 glass on table]. In that regard, March 18th is locked with 1335 days thought to be within it. Abib 1 is a hard date. But it's the fifth day of a week. Aren't we to look for a third day?

David C. Pack is the master of mixed messages, blending reassurance with the introduction of doubts to lead his audience into seeing things his way. He chips away at his own teaching from the previous week and takes 37 more minutes to get to the punchline.

@ 38:24 There wouldn't have been a 1335 in their mind because we're learning that's fiction. We have it wrong. We're not waiting for March 18th. We're waiting for 45 days before that.

Dave returns to a three-kingdom structure, convolutes the 1335, 1290, and 7-Year Kingdom, then invents a "clever" nickname for the 45 days before March 18, “the Sour Grapes Kingdom.”

David C. Pack has no qualms about taking the Lord's name in vain each time he puffs his chest, claiming God's authority.

@ 51:53 The 1335, on God's authority, I'm telling you, is not in the in the seven years. If it is, we could never know it. It would be utterly contrary to all the things I've told you.

He serves up humble pie to smash in the members' faces.

@ 1:09:11 I don't take any credit. I couldn't possibly figure any of this out without the help of God.

David C. Pack figured nothing out. When he soon abandons the 45-day First Kingdom before it gets close, he will refuse to consider how many times he spoke in God’s name while teaching it and gave God the credit for putting it in his head. He can never face the implications of doing this for ten years running.

After fear-mongering about Venezuela, Cuba, and Colombia with a ridiculous "society is collapsing" proclamation, Dave tied the timing of world events to the proximity of the Kingdom's arrival.

@ 1:32:27 It can't go on. We're looking for a year where 45 days before an Abib it's a Tuesday. Or, if you will, a Monday night or if you will, a Monday morning here when it's Monday night, sundown in Jerusalem. Remember, you touch 1335. But just touch it. That'd be a Monday morning. February 2nd.

You know the drill by now. Dave will get suspicious, feel uncomfortable, make a startling discovery that changes everything, and set a new date that is certain to fail.

For those keeping score, February 2 and March 18 in chronological order will be David C. Pack's failures 139 and 140. The countdown timer is running on exrcg.org.

 

 

The Kingdom Will Come on February 1, 2026!

Update: During “The Greatest Untold Story! (Part 617)” on January 17, 2026, David C. Pack changed his story again and moved the date for the start of the Kingdom to February 1.

Part 617 – January 17, 2026
@ 01:23 It's critical we stay with proof of mid-Shevat. …you're gonna learn that February 1st replaces February 2nd. So, we're not waiting for Monday morning, February 2. We're waiting for Sunday morning, February 1. There's huge, massive proof of that. For now, until I can get to it, for now, just rejoice we’re a day closer.

The members of The Restored Church of God are no closer to David C. Pack being right than they were one week ago or ten years ago. He is a blaspheming, hypocritical liar, a false teacher, a false apostle, and a false prophet. With the abundant documentation of his deceit and failures, it is foolish to believe anything the Pastor General says.

Gerald Weston on Herbert Armstrong

Forty years ago on January 16, 1986, Herbert Armstrong died. Various COG groups have amped up their idolization of the guy a lot in the last few days. Here are some words of wisdom from Gerald Weston about Herbert Armstrong. 

HWA brought prophecy to worldly ministers throughout their lifetime. Many never thought about it till Herb mentioned it. Forget decades of false prophecies. To the broader Christian world (and even his own church's eventual leadership), his message contained significant theological errors, unfulfilled prophecies, and departures from historic Christianity.

Several specific prophecies failed to materialize (e.g., predictions tied to 1972–1975 events, a coming "United States of Europe" under a beast power by certain dates).  It only takes ONE failed prophecy, and God says they are liars and not to be followed. Just ask Bob Thiel about that one.

An Emissary of Truth
The impact Mr. Armstrong had on religion during his lifetime was immense. You might say that he put Bible prophecy “on the map,” so to speak. It is difficult to know how many professing Christian ministers read his works and listened to his radio programs, but the number must be sizeable. In the 1960s, you could not drive anywhere in North America at night and not hear his voice, or that of his son, over the radio—usually more than once. 

 

Today, we take for granted many doctrines that God revealed through Mr. Armstrong. One is the meaning of life—that we can be born into the Family of God. This is so obvious from the Scriptures that one must wonder why it is not generally understood by all. But the answer is found in another doctrine God revealed through him. It was while Carol and I were at Ambassador College that God began to open Mr. Armstrong’s mind to a “new” doctrine. He knew that the Bible does not teach that man has an immortal soul, but he also realized that man has a capacity for intelligence shared by no other physical creature. It took him several years to come to understand the truth of the spirit in man—but today, as we read 1 Corinthians 2:11 and other passages on the subject, that truth jumps off the page.

Bob Thiel's African Debacle: Gold, Political Intrigue, Adultery, Bribes, Witchdoctors, Losing Members To Wade Cox

 

Sadly the CCOG owns nothing in Africa. 

A prime example is Evan Ocheings 2 story Church building he has in his backyard. The Feast complex buildings and auditorium,  Evans has on his Property. Evans owns it all. 

Bob has spent upwards of $500,000 or more on these projects, not to mention all other church buildings and properties in Africa.

Bob financed Evans' son Bradox Ouma Ocheings Political involvement in 2017, and in 2022, via Papa Evans. Bradox boy is now running for a 3rd run in 2027 in that same election where Bob says someone put his name on the ballot.

Also, Evans has a Gold mining operation-Bob's excuse is that it's only a small gold mining operation! What's a COG Evangelist in Africa doing owning a gold mining business????

Bob put out his yarn about how much he helps these poor people. The truth is, most of that money is spent on Evans and Radsons' adulterous escapades, bribing people and local Chiefs and villagers to pose and take pictures to manipulate Pastor Bobby in believing he has all these thousands when he has nothing really to show for except providing Money to the witchdoctors and local prostitutes. 

Bob's own words in previous articles tell the tale of when Church income drops it is because of sins. It sounds like CCOG is getting the curses, according to Bob. 

Bob has nothing in Malawi. 3 or 4 thousand disappeared. Sosten caught Church hopping with Wade Cox. The Continuing Church of God, the incredibly fastest shrinking X-WCG church of God by far. Women, Witchdoctors, Woopie, oh my!!!!

The Truth About The Truth?

 

God Does Play a Role in Your Understanding!

Herbert Armstrong taught that God had revealed a number of biblical "truths" to him that had been lost down through the ages since Christ and his apostles walked the earth. He also taught that God wasn't "calling" everyone now, and that only those few whom God had "called" would be able to understand and accept the "truths" that had been revealed to him. Unfortunately, as with many of the other things that Herbert taught, these notions about understanding biblical truth were a perversion of what Scripture actually has to say on the subject.

First, Scripture clearly states that God loves the people of this world and gave his beloved Son so that they could be saved from sin and death. (John 3:16-17) Scripture also reveals that Jesus Christ is the way to God the Father, and that he came to this earth to reveal the Father to us. (Matthew 11:27, Luke 10:22, John 10:25-38 and 14:6-11) Moreover, Scripture reveals that God has spoken to all of us through his Son, and that he has provided the clearest and most perfect revelation of the Father that has ever been shared with humankind. (Hebrews 1:1-3) Now, this is the context for the passage which Armstrong employed to teach that only the few folks whom God had "called" would be able to understand Herbie's "rediscovered truths."

In the sixth chapter of the Gospel of John, we read: "For no man can come to me unless the Father who sent me draws them to me, and at the last day I will raise them up." (John 6:44, NLT) Without the aforementioned context, Herbert claimed that this passage demonstrated that only the folks whom God had specifically called to Christ would understand his little package of "truth." However, even without that wider scriptural context, the very context of this particular passage refutes its usefulness as a prooftext for Herbert's understanding!

Christ had just told his disciples that he was the true "bread of life" - the real manna which came down from heaven. (John 6:22-42) Now, this was NOT well received by many of the folks who heard it, and they did NOT understand how Christ could insist that folks would have to consume him to be saved. Then we read: "But Jesus replied, 'Stop complaining about what I said. For no one can come to me unless the Father who sent me draws them to me, and at the last day I will raise them up. As it is written in the Scriptures, ‘They will all be taught by God.’ Everyone who listens to the Father and learns from him comes to me. (Not that anyone has ever seen the Father; only I, who was sent from God, have seen him.) I tell you the truth, anyone who believes has eternal life. Yes, I am the bread of life! Your ancestors ate manna in the wilderness, but they all died. Anyone who eats the bread from heaven, however, will never die. I am the living bread that came down from heaven. Anyone who eats this bread will live forever; and this bread, which I will offer so the world may live, is my flesh.' Then the people began arguing with each other about what he meant. 'How can this man give us his flesh to eat?' they asked. So Jesus said again, 'I tell you the truth, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you cannot have eternal life within you. But anyone who eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise that person at the last day. For my flesh is true food, and my blood is true drink. Anyone who eats my flesh and drinks my blood remains in me, and I in him. I live because of the living Father who sent me; in the same way, anyone who feeds on me will live because of me. I am the true bread that came down from heaven. Anyone who eats this bread will not die as your ancestors did (even though they ate the manna) but will live forever." (John 6:43-58, NLT)

Clearly, God wants EVERYONE to be saved, and he has "called" or invited EVERYONE to come to Christ in order to have access to him! Indeed, most Christians understand that Jesus was explaining to his followers that salvation is found through his broken body and spilled blood, and that he was speaking about the Eucharist which his followers would be required to participate in for the rest of their physical lifetime on this planet. In reality, NOTHING in this passage suggests or supports a claim of exclusivity of understanding!

Moreover, I believe that part of Herbert's blind spot where this teaching is concerned can be attributed to his rejection of the Christian doctrine of the Trinity. "Why do you say that?" Because Scripture reveals that Father, Son, and Holy Spirit ALL have important roles to play in our ability to understand God and his plans for us! We've already seen the role of the Father and the Son. Next, we will look at the role assigned to the Holy Spirit.

Again, in the Gospel of John, we are informed that Judas asked Christ about how he would reveal himself to them, and not to the world as a whole. Christ replied: "All who love me will do what I say. My Father will love them, and we will come and make our home with each of them. Anyone who doesn’t love me will not obey me. And remember, my words are not my own. What I am telling you is from the Father who sent me. I am telling you these things now while I am still with you. But when the Father sends the Advocate as my representative—that is, the Holy Spirit—he will teach you everything and will remind you of everything I have told you." (John 14:23-26, NLT) A little later, in the same account, Jesus went on to say: "But I will send you the Advocate—the Spirit of truth. He will come to you from the Father and will testify all about me. And you must also testify about me because you have been with me from the beginning of my ministry." (John 15:26-27, NLT)

Paul wrote to the saints at Corinth that ordinary humans do not understand what God has in store for them. He continued: "But it was to us that God revealed these things by his Spirit. For his Spirit searches out everything and shows us God’s deep secrets. No one can know a person’s thoughts except that person’s own spirit, and no one can know God’s thoughts except God’s own Spirit. And we have received God’s Spirit (not the world’s spirit), so we can know the wonderful things God has freely given us." (I Corinthians 2:10-12, NLT) Thus, according to Scripture, we can see that Father, Son, and Holy Spirit ALL THREE have significant roles to play in the revelation of God's will and plans to our minds!

Moreover, the passages which we have explored together make plain that the goal of the Godhead is spiritual understanding for ALL. However, even for Christians, this is NOT a "one and done" kind of phenomenon! It is NOT accomplished over the course of a few months in a public library or by reading a series of booklets. The PLAIN TRUTH is that even Christians are expected to grow in grace and knowledge. (Ephesians 4:11-13 and II Peter 3:18) Currently, we (Christians) see through a glass darkly. (I Corinthians 13:9-12) In short, we must NOT forget that the earth being filled with the knowledge of the Lord is a PROPHECY about the future (Habakkuk 2:14), it is NOT the present reality for ANYONE (including Christians). THIS is the truth about "the truth."

Crackpot Prophet Blows His Cork Over Being Called A False Prophet

 

Oh wow, it took barely any time at all for God's Greatest Gift to the Universe to pop his precious self-righteous cork today. All because of a post calling out all of the lying COG false prophets. Shocking, I know.

Being the ultra-fragile man-child he is (seriously, not even his stint in the military could sand down those razor-sharp edges), he absolutely lost it over a single Grok-generated photo. 

The horror. 

The audacity. 

Someone fetch the fainting couch and a participation trophy—he's clearly been mortally wounded.

It just twists the sacred, silk-lined depths of his prophetic Fruit of the Looms—that the second someone shines even a tiny flashlight on the Armstrongism false-prophet clown car, his fragile house of cards starts trembling.

This self-anointed Oracle of All That Is True is absolutely convinced (with the unshakable certainty usually reserved for flat-earthers and people who still think pineapple belongs on pizza) that HE is the sole surviving vessel of genuine prophecy on planet Earth. Everyone else? Deceived dupes. Satanic plants. Discount-bin Elijah-wannabes selling expired rapture coupons. Meanwhile, the scoreboard of spectacularly failed prophecies looks like a CVS receipt after Black Friday.

False prophets in the Church of God movement? They’re a dime a dozen these days—more like a fire sale on apocalyptic hot air. There have been so many over the decades that even Herbert Armstrong himself must be tossing and turning in his grave, wondering what in the world he unleashed. “Did I really restore all truth… or just open the floodgates for every wannabe Elijah with a typewriter and a self-righteous grudge?”

Poor Herb. He started the fire… and now the whole backyard is ablaze with mini-mes screaming “I’m the real one!” while the rest of us grab popcorn and watch the show.

And what a show it is! 

The world's greatest theologian and Church of God leader to ever walk this earth had this to say about Billingsley, Pack, Flurry, and Weinland:

Now, it is true that Alton Billingsley was wrong about that as well as many other predictions he made. I have long warned against his false predictions...

I have also long denounced false prophets like Ron Weinland, David Pack, and Gerald Flurry...

But when he got to his name being mentioned...Holy Herbal Pills, Batman! Things didn't go so well with the Great Bwana!

That being said, here is what Gary Leonard at Banned put up after quoting Don Billingsley:

In the end, the modern-day Church of God movement has produced an unbroken parade of self-proclaimed prophets whose batting average sits at a pristine .000.

Every. Single. One.

I felt that butt-hurt all the way down here in Pasadena. No amount of butthurt cream will ever restore the Great Bwana to his self-righteous wholeness!

He then goes on to quote two COG men whom many thought were pillars of righteousness and had prophetic insight, when all they were were just news readers that parroted things already well known around the world. No prophecies were involved.

For example, in the old WCG at the Feast of Tabernacles in Tucson, AZ in 1979, I heard the late Dr. Herman Hoeh state that the Eastern Block nations, who were then behind the ‘Iron Curtain’ would end up uniting with Western Europe–that has happened.

In 1971, the late Gene Hogberg wrote that Europe would get its own currency (Hogberg G. EUROPE’S COMMON MARKET RISING WORLD COLOSSUS. Plain Truth, May 1971), and it now does.

He take particular offense at being associated with Flurry, Billingsley, Pack, and Weinland 

Getting back to nonsense from Banned, that site likes to try to connect me to false prophets like David Pack, Gerald Flurry, Don Billingsley, and Ron Weinland. And Gary Leonard referred to me as “that other global heavyweight of almost-truth, Bwana Bob Mzungu Thiel.”

He claims that because I have associated him with the Unholy Tetrad. This besmirches his prophetic status. It is "guilt by association".

Guilt by association has long been a tactic of Satan–he had his minions do that related to Jesus (Matthew 11:19; Mark 2:16; Luke 5:13). Anyway, on September 21, 2025, Gary Leonard posted the following:

No man alive in the Armstrongist churches today has ever authenticated the gospel message through signs, wonders, and miracles. None of them—including Bob Thiel and Ron Weinland— will ever do so in the future. They cannot even get a prophecy right, 

 

Well, that, of course is not true in the case of the (sic) myself in the CCOG.

He continues:

We do have the confirmed miraculous signs of the last days. 

 

Notice something that Herbert Armstrong wrote in 1985:

In these last days, according to biblical prophecy, knowledge, spiritual as well as material, was to be increased. The true Church of God was to be set back on the track, restoring the glorious knowledge of the faith once delivered to the saints in the days of the original apostles. (Armstrong HW. Mystery of the Ages, 1985) 

 

Would not spiritual and prophetic knowledge include making predictions inspired by God and having a better understanding of prophecy than the non-Philadelphian COGs?

If God had actually breathed divine inspiration into those so-called “predictions” and “prophecies,” then sure, we’d all be falling to our knees in reverent awe. But spoiler alert: that is emphatically not the case with Bwana Bob Thiel. God has done precisely zilch of the sort. Not a whisper. Not a nudge. Not even a vague celestial Post-it note. Bwana Bob is a pure, 100% self-manufactured wonder—so far off the prophetic charts that we’re all left breathlessly speculating what fresh, gourmet-grade lunacy he’ll serve up next. Will it be another dream where he’s hand-delivered the keys to the kingdom by an angel wearing a name tag? Or perhaps a brand-new “I told you so” about something everyone else predicted five years earlier? The anticipation is positively thrilling (said no one ever).

Then—because nothing screams “I’m the One True Prophet™” quite like a victory lap—he proceeds to parade a bunch of his supposed “prophecies” for our viewing pleasure. And what do we find? Every single one is just a news story he scraped off the internet, slapped a “Thus saith Bwana” sticker on, and called it revelation. The “end results”? Things that had already been shouted from every other Armstrongist rooftop, Reddit thread, and late-night YouTube rant for years. Real, original, specific, verifiable predictions?

None.

Zero.

Bupkis.

The Great Bwana then goes on to conclude with this:

Jesus said that fruits were the criteria to determine true vs. false prophets (John 7:15-20). The Continuing Church of God has the true fruits.

The Bible teaches:

16 The lazy man is wiser in his own eyes

Than seven men who can answer sensibly. (Proverbs 26:16) 

 

Do not simply accept nonsense and other anti-CCOG statements posted at places online. 

 

The Apostle Paul wrote:

20 Do not despise prophecies. 21 Test all things; hold fast what is good. (1 Thessalonians 5:20-21) 

 

The webmaster at the Banned by HWA website refuses to do that. 

 

Oh please, let's wrap this glorious trainwreck of a spectacle with the mic-drop it so richly deserves.

You bet I do! Given the horrendous, laughably abysmal track record of lying false prophets in the Churches of God—failed dates, recycled headlines masquerading as revelation, endless “I’m the real Elijah” meltdowns, and enough splinter groups to fill a convention center—there is absolutely no way any sane person who actually follows Jesus Christ would ever hitch their wagon to these self-appointed upstarts.

Thiel with his dream diary turned prophecy factory, Pack with his never-ending “final dates” that somehow never quite happen, Flurry with his royal throne and dirty rock, Weinland with his revolving-door prison prophecies, and now Billingsley joining the chorus of “trust me, bro, I’m the one”—these clowns aren’t successors to anything except the long, proud tradition of biblical warning labels.

They’re not shepherds.

They’re not watchmen.

They’re carnival barkers in ill-fitting apostolic robes, desperately trying to sell expired tickets to an apocalypse that keeps getting rescheduled.

So to every weary soul still caught in the COG hamster wheel:

Step off.

Breathe.

Open a Bible without the commentary track of ego and delusion.

And maybe—just maybe—realize that the true end-time sign isn’t another vague headline or self-proclaimed prophet. It’s the moment you stop listening to men who keep getting it spectacularly wrong… and start listening to the One who never does.

Until then, the popcorn supply is endless, the show is free, and the next episode is always “just around the corner.” Stay sane out there, friends.

The Largest Mass Conversion in the History of the Churches of God

 

Oh, sweet merciful heavens, let us now bow our heads in reverent awe at the epic biblical saga that has unfolded across the blessed continent of Africa.

For countless glorious, pre-Thielian epochs, our prophet Wade Cox—humble servant of the One True Church—has magnanimously informing anyone who would listen (and most who wouldn’t) that hundreds of thousands—no, scratch that—millions upon MILLIONS of precious African souls were somehow, inexplicably, bowing at the altar of his infinitesimally tiny, ultra-exclusive, last-days-only cult. Entire sovereign nations, we were assured, were on their knees night and day, clutching their well-worn King James Bibles, weeping, and chanting in perfect unison: “Wade! Wade! Please let us in! We promise we’ll keep the new moons better than anyone!”

And then… lightning cracks, heavenly choir hits an off-key high note… His Thielness descended upon the African plain like Moses with better internet and a GoPro. Suddenly—hold onto your prayer shawls—tens of thousands (probably more like 47, but who’s counting when you’re rewriting church history?) are flocking to his banner in what is objectively, indisputably, THE single most earth-shattering, demon-slaying, prophecy-fulfilling, greatest-of-all-time Church of God explosion since… well, since last Tuesday when someone else claimed the same thing.

Truly, we are witnessing the pinnacle of divine numerical creativity. Both of these apostolic accountants have spent literal decades mastering the sacred art of “aggressive rounding upward,” “visionary projection,” and the occasional “oops-that-was-actually-three-people-not-three-thousand-but-God-honors-faith-so-it-counts-double” maneuver. All so their handful of remaining devotees can clutch their monthly letter and whisper through tears, “Yes… yes… we really are the most special, most righteous, most numerically impressive remnant that has ever existed. The other 99.999% of Christianity can only dream.”

And then there are the African Sabbatarian saints themselves—true masters of ecclesiastical speed dating. Loyalty? That quaint little concept died somewhere between the third tithe and the fourth “special love offering.” These spiritual nomads treat church affiliation like a seasonal Netflix subscription: 

Month 1–3: “This group has the best sermons AND they’re sending rice!”

Month 4: Funds mysteriously taper → “The Lord is clearly calling us elsewhere.”

Month 5: New group receives 400 “new converts” overnight → 

“HALLELUJAH! God has poured out a fresh latter-day revival… right on schedule with the new fiscal quarter!” 

Cue wire transfers, joyous testimonies, and commemorative group selfies. 

Month 7: Rice runs low → rinse, repeat, new letterhead, same palms.

It’s a beautiful, never-ending carousel of divine coincidence, where every time the money well starts looking a little dry, God—in His infinite wisdom—immediately sends yet another wave of eager, freshly-minted “converts” to the next group with the fattest wallet and the most gullible checkbook.

Truly, it warms the cockles of one’s cynical little heart to behold such pure, unfiltered, orchestrated gospel theater. 

We are not worthy.

Wade Cox had this  up the other day:

Hi we have received another request for a consortium of 64 churches to join us this week as well as many smaller groups.

This was my general letter to the coords involved.

Dear Kandongo Joseph Ezekiel,

We are very pleased to hear from you and your request for induction to CCG.

Please have everyone study A1 and A2.

I have cced this to all national coordinators in the area. Joash Okiny Hamisi is TZ coordinator and he will arrange for your induction there. Jack Owuor will assist him as is necessary for your induction. We will locate you with local churches there and in other nations. Bizimana Bosco our East and Central African project officer in Uganda will contact you and arrange for inductions also. Habimana Pascal is coordinator for Burundi, Jean Ramazani in Rwanda and Mudimba Muhindo Lene is in the Congo with Jean Paul Nyonzima. George Onyango is Coordinator for Kenya and we are in the process of inducting another large church group in these countries that joined us last month and others.

It seems that we will have well over 40 churches in western TZ and Joash will talk with you about organising the west.

I would like reports from all Coordinators on the churches in their national areas and to arrange for their induction. Send Joseph your contact details also.

Warren and Sosten please arrange for the Zambia inductions with the others and advise me. (Warren is Coordinator for South Africa and Sosten is Coordinator for Malawi. Shungu is Coordinator for Zimbabwe).

Just for information this makes over 110 churches in two months before Passover of the Sabbath Year. Perhaps we have over 10,000 added to us in two months. How many baptisms and ordinations before Passover is anyone’s guess.

Alton Billingsley: US and Israelite Nations To Be Destroyed In 2026

 

The Church of God is positively bursting at the seams with so many self-appointed, truth-challenged false prophets these days that keeping score is getting downright exhausting.

We’ve got Dave Pack, whose “Christ” is apparently making a special detour to Wadsworth, Ohio, just to squeeze in a quick shopping trip at the Giant Eagle. Then there’s Gerald Flurry, waiting for his version of Christ to show up in Edmond, Oklahoma, ready to be crowned King of Kings on some ridiculous chair with a grimy rock from Oregon shoved under the seat. And let’s not overlook Ron Weinland, the pioneering Church of God prophet who achieved the rare distinction of becoming a convicted felon. All of them are batting a solid, unwavering .000.

Don’t forget Alton Billingsley’s legendary 2021 prophecy masterpiece—truly groundbreaking material… if you happen to enjoy predictions that come with a complimentary industrial-sized salt shaker. (Every other “prophecy” this man has ever made has crashed and burned so spectacularly that failure might actually be his spiritual gift.) And of course, he remains faithfully devoted to his royal collection of qualifiers: “possiblies,” “maybes,” “could-bes,” and the timeless classic, "God delayed this prophecy because the church was not ready".

Truly the same prophetic bloodline of brilliance shared with that other global heavyweight of almost-truth, Bwana Bob Mzungu Thiel—Africa’s leading authority on things that almost, kinda, sorta, maybe could happen… eventually… probably not.

Possibly close to the Passover, April 4, 2023, will begin the famine to last for three and one-half years that God in heaven above is bringing on His people, the House of Joseph, America and Britain, and other tribes of Israel.

Prophecy also makes known the devil will release Assyria-Germany from the bottom- less pit. Therefore, bringing into existence the Holy Roman Empire sometime during the year, 2024.

Then the severity of the famine, with pestilence, Covid 19 mutating into the black plague, will commence destroying America in particular—then the same to come upon the other Israeli nations in 2026! All this is to be followed by nuclear warfare (Ezekiel 5:12)—with the lone exception of Judah. Her fate will come later.

Before all this, there will be a civil war, 2024-2025 (Jeremiah 51:46 "... Violence in the land ruler against ruler....") Could the civil war begin because of the possible assassination of President Trump? Something momentous will have to happen to trigger it! The civil war will start before the finality takes place. Details will follow in other writings.

This year, 2023, will lead into unparalleled and frightening times! This nation and the world are presently asleep to what will soon befall them, similar to the pre-flood world of Noah, and Sodom and Gomorrah (Luke 17:26-30 "... so will it be in the day when the Son of Man is revealed ...").

May God have mercy. The Ezekial Watchman

The cover letter had this: 

This is a cover letter for the Ezekiel Warning Messages to begin appearing monthly on the Church of God Faithful Flock Website-Warnings from God's use of His promised Elijah of the end-time to a people who have rejected and forgotten their God.

In view of Prophetic Biblical teachings, connected with major disastrous events, now occurring, and projected to worsen on a national and international scale over the next few years, strongly implies Jesus Christ will be standing on this earth in the year-2029. This is eight years from now, 2021. How quickly time flies!

They also make known this nation is in mortal danger of being destroyed, as a nation, along with Britain, and other nations of Israel, in the year 2026-no more than five years from now, 2021. Prophesied to be destroyed by a super-power far greater than America.

Though it has not yet appeared, it is prophesied to be fully developed by the year-2024. This is only three years from now, 2021. 

 

In the end, the modern-day Church of God movement has produced an unbroken parade of self-proclaimed prophets whose batting average sits at a pristine .000.

Every. Single. One.

From the granddaddy Armstrong-era offshoots right down to the current crop of internet-enabled dreamers, the track record is depressingly consistent: bold proclamations, confident timelines, dramatic “Thus saith the Lord” declarations… followed by the sound of crickets, goalpost relocation, spiritualized reinterpretations, and—when all else fails—the classic “it was fulfilled spiritually, you just didn’t have eyes to see it.”

Scripture is brutally clear on the matter: one failed prediction and the claim of divine authority collapses like a house of cards in a windstorm (Deuteronomy 18:22). No appeals to “human frailty.” No partial-credit mulligans. No “close enough for prophetic work.” One swing-and-miss = false prophet. Period.

Yet here we are, decades later, still watching the same tragic comedy repeat itself with new characters and slightly updated websites.

The conclusion is painfully obvious:

It is long past time to stop giving these men platforms.

It is long past time to stop treating their fever dreams as divine revelation.

And above all—it is long past time to stop giving them your money.

Because every dollar sent to a proven false prophet isn’t supporting “the Work.”

It’s subsidizing the next round of embarrassing, date-setting, fear-mongering failure.

The true church of God has never needed a parade of prophetic pretenders to survive.

It certainly doesn’t need them now.

Walk away.

Keep your wallet closed.

And let the modern false-prophet industrial complex finally starve for the attention and cash it no longer deserves.

The scoreboard doesn’t lie.
