Dave Pack's Public Relations Nightmare

 


The Dave Pack and the Restored Church of God are currently having a huge public relations nightmare right now as a local TV station has been running programs about his cult after concerned citizens of Wadsworth expressed concerns about the church, beliefs, and its total isolation from the community. 

This public examination is refreshing considering how several years ago the religion editor of the local Wadsworth press failed to heed numerous requests to examine the RCG when they blasted numerous publications about its expansion into Wadsworth and its building programs. She wrote glowing articles about how important Dave and the church were while glossing over deep issues plaguing the church.

Our hats are off to Dawn Blue and How Its Done TV out of Wadsworth for believing Marc Cebrian and others who have come forward to spotlight this deeply concerning cult in their midst.







COG Gaslighting

 


Thursday, May 26, 2022

Repugnant "carrion sniffing jackal" Stephen Flurry and the PCG give their opinions on Uvdale School Massacre.

 

My email box has been bombarded by the repugnant slop from the Philadelphia Church of God regarding the Uvalde, TX school massacre. I kept trying to figure out a way to highlight the repulsive things Gerald and Stephen Flurry have been saying until I saw this letter on ESN. 

The COG has always given lip service when tragedy strikes. When you hear a COG minister or leader (like Bob Thiel) who claims they are praying for these hurting people, there is always lurking in the back of their minds their superiority over these people that are of the unwashed unconverted masses who do not know the truth. Such crap! 

Who needs their hypocritical prayers?

Trumpet Blows Their Own Horn Regarding Current Sorrow of Mass Murders:

May 26, 2022

The carrion sniffing jackal, SF could not restrain himself from asserting his typical pathetic “my father told you so” take on the Uvalde, Texas mass murder before the victims’ bodies went completely cold.

Not much difference between the Trumpet‘s “tomorrow’s news today” and the bloodthirsty mainstream media’s vultures, spiritually.

Where is there any sincere mourning for these new murders in America except for the Trumpet‘s usual dramatized outrage, which only serves to put the fake church on an imaginary “moral high ground” and “spiritual” pedestal? Oh, but all those “carnal” people killed at the Texas school were not getting “God’s education,” so the PC[g]’s ministry can only allow themselves to demonstrate a minimal bit of “natural affection” towards the innocent victims, lest they may possibly be seen participating in the observances of “the world.”

In regards to prayers for the victims’ families, will the PC[g] ministers be quoting one of their favorites this coming weekend, “Therefore pray not thou for this people, neither lift up cry nor prayer for them, neither make intercession to me: for I will not hear thee.” Jeremiah 7:16. Although they may encourage prayer to God for the blessing of their religious infomercials like the Key of David, and the Trumpet Daily, and for more money to mysteriously flow into “HQ.” The greedy guts are rumbling there, as the Trumpet radio so falsely declares, “We said it first!” Meanwhile, they look down upon slaughtered children and teachers.

These kinds of “newscasters” are more despicable than the communist left wing’s political buzzards now pushing for more of their kind of “gun control.” (Meaning: using unlawful guns and overreaching government agency weaponization to control the people, but not allowing the lawful people to control themselves nor the guns they own.)

The very same values that PC[g] ministers believe set them above the rest of humanity, within their own delusional estimation of having the most insightful “biblical” perspective on some of the most horrible news on earth, including school massacres, actually reveals that their self-exalted ministry exists at an even lower level than those “unconverted” or “carnal” people who can only seem to stir up “natural affection” and “maudlin” human emotion towards murder victims.

Strange how the Trumpet‘s “special take” on the news, which news, by the way, comes from other world news sources first, must be regarded as naturally superior to news outlets of “the world.” The Trumpet only blows their own horn, saying, “You’ll hear this nowhere else.” Even though the Trumpet Daily spends most of the hour quoting and reading articles first written by “unconverted” and “worldly educated” authors, and playing clips recorded by real people who arrived at the scene first, while they lounge far away in the clean green acres of OK. Oh, but, “We said it first!” That is the greater issue of the day to be excited over, than any true outrage or agonizing lamentation for murdered children and teachers.

Not much more remorse for the “church’s” own dying members either, but only joy over receiving another “estate” into their coffers. But more “precious” is the death of “saints” to the PC[g] (read the often misrepresented verse, Psalm 116:15), especially more valuable to the PCG[g] than the murder of the precious innocent children of “the world,” whom God so loves, too, more than the PC[g]’s ministry loves dead people’s money.

And God sees straight through to their hearts by their own reactions to the deaths of children and teachers, and the deaths of saints. God sees. And if that shameless cult does not believe God and Jesus see them, then they neither believe in God or Jesus.–Q. W.

To RCG's David C. Pack: What Happened to the Funds for AYC in 2020?


 

To RCG's David C. Pack: What Happened to the Funds for AYC in 2020?


In 2020, the Restored Church of God raised over $100,000 to support Ambassador Youth Camp (AYC). Due to Covid-19, the camp was canceled that year. However, the funds were NOT returned to those who gave it and were NOT used for the purpose in which it was collected.

Not only did adults contribute, but the teens themselves did their own fundraising by mowing lawns, washing cars, and holding bake sales, etc. Children were encouraged to "be creative" with how they could fundraise for AYC. They did just that.

In the following year, fundraising for AYC began again which means the funds collected in 2020 were not applied to the camp in 2021. The obvious question becomes: Where did that money go?

The Restored Church of God is not a financially transparent 501(c)(3) organization. The membership has no idea how their contributions are spent. This is under the direction of Pastor General David C. Pack.

If they were a financially transparent organization, the membership would know:

  • David C. Pack's salary
  • Ministerial salaries
  • How much the church is collecting each year
  • How much the fence along Interstate 76 cost
  • How much the barn and horses cost
  • Who exactly paid for the horses
  • How much the trees cost
  • How much third tithe assistance is collected vs. spent
  • How much "tithe of second tithe" is collected vs. spent
  • How surplus AYC funds are managed
  • What is the housing rental income
  • How much is the mortgage on the campus
  • How much is actually spent on "preaching the gospel"

If you give money to the Restored Church of God, do not expect informed consent. Funds you give to them may NOT be spent for the purpose you designated it for, even if it was "restricted" at the time.

You may toss and turn, losing sleep over how much to give in Common because "Christ is coming so very soon," but rest assured...the ministers sleep like babies.

The primary question remains for David C. Pack: "Where did that money go?"

Gerald Flurry Declares Fast For July 3 To Try And Influence His "god" To Heal Lil'Stevie And Other Sick Members

 


Things are not looking too good on the Philadelphia Church of God cult compound in Edmond Oklahoma. Satan is apparently wreaking havoc with the health of the gods and goddesses who are soon to be ruling neighboring planets. Even the son of King Flurry has major health problems.

Lil'Stevie has major problems with his hip, joints, and leg. We can almost guarantee that he will have surgery for this, even while King Daddy tells regular members to put their entire faith in his god and stay away from Satan's doctors. What's supposedly good for the sheeple is never good for the royalty.

GF has declared a church-wide fast for July 3. He said they “have had some real sickness problems in the church and we need to beseech God for stronger faith and more healing.” He said an x-ray examination in March of his son (Stephen) “revealed severe damage in his right hip, joint, and also a significant degree of degeneration in his leg bone and he needs to be healed.” He also said that “Andrew Locher has type 2 diabetes with nephropathy which affects his feet and hands with numbness.” Then he mentioned a few other members with severe physical problems. Some of the AC students have had health problems also. Exit and Support Network
