Dave Pack On Why Christ Delays His Coming




For 80 some years now the Church of God, in its many imaginations, have been declaring that the return of Jesus is imminent.  The world is so corrupt that Jesus was to return in 1975 an dales every year after that. One lying false prophet after another has made that declaration.  From Herbert Armstrong to Rod Meredith, Ron Weinland, to Bob Thiel to James Malm, everyone of them exposed as liars.  But who is really to blame for their "jesus" never showing up on time?  It is YOU!  It is the brethren's fault.  They were not ready.

Dave has another reinterpretation, especially after the last three years of failed prophecy...his "christ" has deliberately scheduled "delays" in his coming.   He is coming on time, but has delayed his coming...which is really on time...but it is not...because he has deliberately delayed it...though it is right on schedule...though it is delayed...but still on time...though it is delayed...

Watch what’s going on, because you’ll also get some comfort in watching the advance of prophecy, because you know days are ticking down. Christ is not going to delay His Coming. He’s going to come right on schedule…which is an interesting discussion we’ve had. He has “scheduled” a delay. So He’s going to delay, but He scheduled it, because the Bible says “the bridegroom tarried.” We just covered that. But it’s a “scheduled” delay. You think about whether or not you think it’s a delay…remembering that it is the evil servant who says “my Lord delays His coming”…That might help you in your contemplations. 



Dave Pack: Grace is like car insurance. Have a wreck and it gets cancelled


Superfantabulous Dave talks about grace.  It is too stupid to even comment on:

At some point, what happens if it is automobile wrecks, you get your insurance cancelled. I’ve used the example that grace is like an insurance policy—call it forgiveness or mercy—we’ll just say grace here—God’s unmerited pardon. It’s like an insurance policy. You can’t just go out and drive willy-nilly—“I don’t care. I’ll just speed on ice…around corners…I have insurance.” Who would do that? Insurance won’t keep you away from telephone poles and oak trees…You see?…or other cars. Just go off a curb, because you were too fast or it was icy. You can have insurance and lose your life.
Oh, and God's mercy is like insurance premiums.  Premiums that rise continually.
You should look at mercy as having insurance and the premiums can rise…Because the Bible says you can grow in grace and favor…and that means you can be one that isn’t, therefore, growing in grace and favor; but the other side is, you may not grow in grace and favor. The longer you drive and have no accidents, the better your rates, and you understand that. Men figured that out. But the more you wreck your car, at some point, you’re uninsurable…and then it’s illegal to drive and you’re off the road. And the analogy for a Christian is—you’re out of here—you’re no longer a Christian…
