Dave Pack's Greasy, Slimy Math


 


Greasy, Slimy Math

 

The lie about Stephen's death in Acts 7, told during "The Greatest Unending Story! (Part 407)," was the straw that broke the camel’s back. We need to call a spade a spade.

 

You can watch that moment here.




Pastor General David C. Pack of The Restored Church of God tells lies. He has been for a long time, but it changes your viewpoint when you finally accept something for what it is.

 

The “Tevet 1 on Christmas 2022” 76-year math lie was first mentioned in Part 406, and then, a summary lie was repeated during Part 407.

 

Part 406 – November 26, 2022

@ 02:00 But, an interesting fact about that time 30 years ago was that the last time Christmas came on Tevet 1 was 1992. Thirty years ago. You already know the next time it occurs is in 2068. 46 years from now. That means that once in 76 years, Tevet 1 is again Christmas. And it so happens it's this year. So, it occurs once in a period of a little over three-quarters of a century. Now, we can suppose that's a coincidence, but I don't think most of us would do that.

 

Part 407 – November 30, 2022

@ 00:27 First, remember that Christmas [on Tevet 1] occurs once in 76 years…One time in 76 years between 1992 and 2068.

 

Are those statements examples of idiocy or a calculated manipulation? Is David C. Pack a mathematical nincompoop, or was it a verbal magic trick? Is he an imbecile, or is he lying?

 

The answers are: a calculated manipulation, a verbal magic trick, and David C. Pack was lying. He knew what he was doing because he was desperate to have another “proof” for his Christmas 2022 theory.

 

The David C. Pack way of thinking is: The more you talk, the more right you are. The louder you talk, the more right you are. The longer your list, the more right you are.

 

He has presented pages, front and back, of lists that "prove" his theory that he later abandons. I have watched in person over the years the value of his "proof list" drop to nil overnight. Having 50 or 70 or 120 proofs is a selling point one day and thrown into the shredder the next.

 

The fact of 76 years is irrelevant. It could have been 100 years or 10,000 years, and it would not make him any more correct about his impending failure. God is not behind David C. Pack. God is not behind "The Greatest Unending Story!" Series. God did not reveal to RCG that Jesus Christ is coming on Christmas Eve, but Elijah will be raised 15 days before that.

 

 

For many years while attending RCG, I did not look into what Dave presented beyond what the Bible and Strong’s Exhaustive Concordance said. People sitting in the Main Hall or at Services cannot research at the moment when something sounds "off." You are hit with such a deluge of information it is hard to write things in your notes even when you are TRYING to follow his thought process.

 

In later years, I discovered there was much insight gained when fact-checking Dave afterward. Especially in these latter years of the Series when Dave has become more careless as he deteriorates.

 

Recall his Fake World News statements about the artificial sun China launched into the atmosphere in October. That is pure comedy now. But not for the folks inside RCG at the time.

 

I credit Dennis Diehl for bringing this to my attention because I did not absorb what Dave was saying about the 76-year business in Part 406. It sounded like more Dave Pack White Noise to me. He opens his mouth, and I hear Pod People hissing.

 

After listening carefully, the blatant error was easy to spot. Calling it a mistake is naïve. Dave knew what he was doing. He was manipulating the numbers to support his cause. They have done it before.

 

Now we can examine the greasy, slimy math lie.

 

 

Dave gives special significance to Christmas occurring on Tevet 1 this year by saying it happens “once in 76 years.” If you take 2068 and subtract 1992, you get 76 years. So, the Coffee Kid’s calculator does work.

 

Here is the problem:

 

Tevet 1 on Christmas does not happen once between 1992 and 2068. It happens three times. Dave knows this. He misleadingly presented the math, so 2022 could seem significant.

 

Follow my antichrist serpent brain and count three times.

 

1992 – First Tevet 1 Christmas

2022 – Second Tevet 1 Christmas

2068 – Third Tevet 1 Christmas

 

Either David C. Pack is a moron, or he intentionally lied to the members of The Restored Church of God so he could get 30 seconds more credibility.

 

Leaving aside the expanse of time between points, if you follow his logic, between 2021 and 2023, your birthday occurs once.

 

But you had a birthday in 2021. You have a birthday in 2022. You will have a birthday in 2023. That would be three times if my high school education was worth anything.

 

For the math nerds, Dave is measuring the diameter but calling it the radius.

 

Is willful deception one of the fruits of the spirit at Headquarters these days?

 

This is a prime example of Dave adopting Bradford G. Schleifer’s greasy, slimy math that was covered in July. Two clear instances of “ministers of Jesus Christ” manipulating numbers to make their point that is proven to be fraudulent upon careful examination.

 

I am not sure which came first: the chicken or the lie. Did Dave teach Brad, or did Brad teach Dave?

 

In both cases, the mathematical ruse only works if you do not slow down to think about it.

 

 

When you further fact-check David C. Pack, more relevant points become clear.

 

Something else he knew and withheld from RCG is that a Tevet 1 Christmas also happened in 1984. It is not as “rare” within our lifetime as he wanted you to believe because he conveniently left that out.

 

While researching Tevet 1 on Christmas occurrences between 1900 to 2200, Dave actually made a “stronger case” for Jesus Christ to return in the year 2068. Well, if you buy into his logic.

 

Tevet 1 Christmas

1908

1927 (19-year gap)

1984 (57-year gap)

1992 (8-year gap)

2022 (30-year gap)

2068 (46-year gap)

2136 (68-year gap)

2174 (38-year gap)

 

No 76-year spaces are to be found. Brad should sit Dave down to explain the difference between a radius and a diameter. I would also be willing to help in that arena. My rate is $60 per hour, and Dr. Ranney has my number.

 

The only real significant gap is found between Dave’s ears.

 

 

Part 407 – November 30, 2022

@ 00:27 First, remember that Christmas [on Tevet 1] occurs once in 76 years…One time in 76 years between 1992 and 2068.

 

Is that statement an error or a lie? Is he stupid, or is he a deceiver?

 

Dave’s “metric” dissolves rather quickly once you shine a light on the big picture of what he presents. No biblical pattern. No cosmic alignment. No revelatory significance. Numbers and dates are explained deceptively to temporarily imply validity.

 

That is the kind of mentality the folks inside RCG are dealing with. Take the same twisted logic that the RCG ministry uses to distort numbers and apply it to the Bible. That is an illustration of what is going on over there.

 

An unsound mind with unsound thinking presents unsound teachings.

 

You cannot trust what The Restored Church of God ministry tells you.

 

You cannot trust what David C. Pack tells you.

 

That is not an opinion. That is just math.

Dave Pack Lies

 



David C. Pack Lies

 

That may be a redundant title for those following along because the evidence is pretty obvious by now. But, to come out and write it flatly is another level, especially when your name is attached to it.

 

By their fruits, you shall know them. Even a child is known for his doings. Out of the abundance of the heart, the mouth speaks. No lie is of the truth.

 

I do not address this lightly. I consider standing before the Judgment Seat of Christ to account for my actions and words. I ask myself if I am a liar or a hypocrite or a thief, or a blasphemer. It is quite sobering to ponder such matters.

 

For some, this is when I finally “crossed the line.” The question I ask when reporting on anything is, “Is it true?” To the best of my knowledge and understanding, what I write about David C. Pack is true.

 

While the hirelings at Headquarters have to stare at their shoes when they answer questions about “The Greatest Unending Story!” teachings, I can look anyone in the eyes and state, “David C. Pack lies.”

 

Want some proof?

 

Part 403 – November 5, 2022

@ 01:51 Now, more than ever, I can tell you this: Salvation will come in November 2022. See if you doubt that when we’re done.

 

Remember this?

 

Part 402 – October 25, 2022

@ 1:27:01 God’s will has been done. You made it to the 1335. The pledge is made on the dare, I say? The correct 1335.

 

These briefest of examples establish plainly that the Pastor General of The Restored Church of God has a documented pattern of speaking lies. Calling them falsehoods and error and biblical fraud has been a cautious way to pull the punches of reality.

 

However, playtime is over, and the velvet gloves are coming off.

 

“The Greatest Unending Story! (Part 407)” was given by David C. Pack on November 30, 2022. He continues pushing the Christmas-Christ Coming pretty hard and will continue it this Saturday when he force-feeds Part 408 to the brethren.

 

The proven-by-history prophetic lies in RCG have been going on for over ten years. The “I am an apostle” lie has been going on since 2005, proving that the more often a lie is repeated, the more “real” it feels.

 

But a lie is still a lie no matter how long you tell it.

 

 

@ 00:03 We all know the date that is a few days ahead. So, we’re nearing a final, complete picture of all that happens.

 

December 9 at sunset Jerusalem time next Friday is the beginning of Kislev 16 when the First Kingdom arrives to give Elijah some juice to take open his big mouth to the world.

 

The picture is far from complete, and nothing is final with him.

 

Dave then repeats a “proof” about the rarity of Christmas occurring on Tevet 1, which I breezed past during Part 406 last time.

 

@ 00:27 First, remember that Christmas [on Tevet 1] occurs once in 76 years…One time in 76 years between 1992 and 2068.

 

This lie will be addressed in another article.

 

The biblical math will tweak your brain because it is either idiotic or lunatic. Dennis Diehl and I have discussed this in two separate phone calls already. The deception is so vile it requires careful focus.

 

It is added here for documentation purposes.

 

 

@ 00:42 What if Christmas arriving on Tevet 1 at “the midst of the years” Christmas was the only thing you had? You had no other metrics of any kind. Nothing. No Mystery of God ending. No death of the Queen. Or all kinds of other things. But, if you knew absolutely that Tevet 1 has to come on a Christmas, that’s all you’d need to know.

 

And there you have it. David C. Pack is finally correct because of Tevet 1 Christmas. The members of The Restored Church of God are awaiting their Christmas Miracle. Since NORAD tracks the progression of Santa each year, perhaps RCG can sell off their winter clothes to help fund piggybacking the tracking of the return of Jesus Christ starting in Jerusalem.

 

He will bring gifts to all the good little boys and girls in RCG across the globe as he makes His way west to the Wadsworth Campus.

 

Forevermore, a season to be jolly. Fa-la-la-la-la la-la la la.

 

@ 01:11 I’m gonna go over a few quick things just to remind you how hard is next Friday.

 

This is a family venue, so the obvious lines that write themselves will be excluded.

 

I will again officially state as an unordained non-prophet/non-psychic that Friday, December 9, will pass without incident. The members of RCG will be left to ponder having to deal with more Dave as they put on their ties and pantyhose before going to Services after practicing their plastic smiles in the mirror. 

 

Even more lights will fade from their eyes as they blankly drive to Services holding the potatoes au gratin as it goes cold amid the dead silence.

 

Who will be thrown at the lectern in the Main Hall that Sabbath to lie (reassure) the brethren that "all is well" and “we are right on track” so “do not be discouraged” because “Mr. Pack discovered some incredible new things” that “all the ministers agree” with. What’s worse is that they know it is coming.

 

@ 03:15 Got some really, really interesting things to look at today. Some puzzles and stay engaged. This is gonna be fun. Fascinating. All kinds of little things. Eye-opening things that you wouldn't believe could still be left after seven years of study. Oh, yes, there are.

 

Seven years of study will be proven to be worthless as of next Saturday, December 10. An abundance of worthless. An accumulation of worthless. A big pile of worthless.

 

@ 06:11 This proof, if you think about it, should be electrifying to you. You should just say, “There’s no way outta that.” There’s no way out of it.

 

As Ian Malcolm would say, “Life finds a way.” Dave will find a way to weasel out of this failure as it approaches. The shimmering mirage in the distance is far more tangible than the fading one up close.

 

There is no prophetic oasis for RCG on the horizon. Just a lot of hot air leading nowhere and manifesting nothing.

 

 

Dave read from the Encyclopedia Britannica explaining the popular understanding of why Jesus Christ is part of the world’s Christmas season and then added commentary.

 


@ 08:00 Christ will return to earth on December 25th. Now, as wrong as their theology is and as wrong as they are about worshipping another Jesus anyway by many other names, it’s not a bad thing that billions and billions of Christians for the last two thousand years have believed that the Kingdom of God would arrive Christmas.

 

A generous 5% of Herbert W. Armstrong just turned over in his grave.

 

Page 21 of the RCG booklet, “The True Origin of Christmas,” states:

 

Many speak of “putting Christ back into Christmas.” This is heard every year from thousands of pulpits and elsewhere. But the true Christ was never there! Just as a person cannot go back into a room that he had never entered, Jesus Christ cannot be “put back” into an event that He has never been in, and that He in fact hates! (Again, see Mark 7:7.) The Jesus that these preachers and religionists have in mind is another Christ, one with another gospel, another spirit—the Christmas spirit!—bringing totally different doctrines and teachings.


A good refresher for those interested in what RCG publicly teaches about Christmas can watch the World to Come program, “Christmas Unveiled—What God Says!”


There is an interesting quote beginning at 18:11 that cannot be embedded. Here is the YouTube link.

 

After Christmas comes and goes this year, there will not be a need to update the RCG literature or videos because Dave will step away from the Christmas fascination and focus back on Janus.

 

 

According to Dave, angels blowing trumpets on Christmas iconography now supports the Tevet 1 of 2022 scenario.

 

@ 09:10 But that’s absolutely part of Catholic and Protestant theology. It’s an astonishing thing. And, it becomes in a way, if not a proof, an indicator that a loving God who wants billions and billions of people to have salvation would send Christ to build His Kingdom on Christmas.

 

So, God has adopted the same mindset the Roman pagans had when they rolled Saturnalia into Christianity. Change the date a tad and call it "Christ Mas” to make the official Roman religion more appealing to both pagans AND Christians.

 

The god David C. Pack preaches thinks as the Romans did. How is that not frightening? Maybe god would also move the day of worship to Sunday so those same people would have an easier time swallowing the Sabbath. I wonder if Dave has already spit-balled that one.

 

How the mighty have fallen. The David C. Pack of today is far removed from the man he was ten years ago. If we played a clip of what he says now to Dave 2012, he would think it was a demon mimicking his voice. Nobody on the planet could convince him he would say that kind of thing just a decade into the future.

 

@ 09:31 The counterfeit is that just as Christmas is arriving, the Man of Sin, who's claiming he's God with all power, signs, and lying wonders, is ready to take his place on Christmas. And at the split-second of Christmas, he is struck dead in the power of God, and the True God arrives with the True Jesus Christ in glory on that day.

 

 

Dave then makes completely unfounded false statements about the death of Stephen in the Book of Acts. He strains at every opportunity to turn the Bible into a Christmas-laden book which only exposes his pathetic desperation to sell an abomination to members of RCG.

 

David C. Pack lies.

 

@ 19:36 This got Stephen killed when he cited the star on the top of the Christmas tree. They murdered him on the spot. Go back and read Acts 7. When he spoke about God raising Elijah. One, That Prophet who would come and straighten things out, and they murdered him for saying because he dared saying anything about their gods.

 

David C. Pack lies.

 

Stephen was stoned for explaining that Jesus Christ was That Prophet and the Jews murdered an innocent man. The Jews did not care about "other gods," and they certainly did not care about the Christmas tree.

 

This is the verse which Dave is trying to build his house of sand upon.

 

Acts 7:43

Yeah, ye took up the tabernacle of Moloch, and the star of your god Remphan, figures which ye made to worship them: and I will carry you away beyond Babylon.

 

There was a star in the sky called Remphan. Some sources state it was “a star called Jupiter.” It was not a symbol placed upon a tree but a star depicted in ancient iconography. It was an idolatrous practice, for sure. But it had nothing to do with Christmas or the Christmas tree. Tying those together is a complete fabrication of Dave’s twisted imagination.

 

Stephen referred to ancient Israel before they were carried off into captivity in Babylon. He reminded the Jewish authorities of his day of the errors of their mutual ancestors.

 

The star at the top of the Christmas tree is the Star of Bethlehem, which came much later than Remphan.

 

David C. Pack lies.

 

Dave is making it all up and forcing a Christmas angle into Acts 7 because he needs it to, not because anything he said is real. The Bible says what he needs it to when he needs it. That is the RCG Way.

 

Stephen’s words from the Book of Acts make this clear.

 

Acts 7:37

This is that Moses, which said unto the children of Israel, A prophet shall the Lord your God raise up unto you of your brethren, like unto me; him shall ye hear.

 

Jesus Christ was a Jew in Israel. The Jews of His day did not hear him. Jesus Christ was like Moses.

 

Act 7:52-54

Which of the prophets have not your fathers persecuted? And they have slain them which shewed before of the coming of the Just One; of whom ye have been now the betrayers and murderers: Who have received the law by disposition of angels, and have not kept. When they heard these things, they were cut to the heart, and they gnashed on him with their teeth.

 

Stephen went on to see Jesus Christ standing on the right hand of God. And they stoned him.

 

Stephen was not killed because he denounced Christmas. Or other gods. Jesus Christ was That Prophet who the Jews rejected and had the Romans kill. That was Stephen’s point. Jesus was a Prophet persecuted by them. They betrayed and murdered the Just One.

 

The Jews of that time were not Moloch or Remphan worshippers. Nor were they Christmas tree decorators. That teaching is shallow and foolish at best.

 

Nothing in Acts 7 has anything to do with Christmas. But for now, that is the official RCG teaching “ministers” are forced to perpetuate. Well, at least for the next twenty-five days until it is walked back.

 

 

Jumping ahead to more lies, the word of God continues to be used deceitfully. Dave walks through passages in the New Testament as more proofs for Christmas, including Luke 21:34 and 1 Thessalonians 5:6-7.

 

The problem is they are recycled passages for when he warned about New Year’s Eve a while back. Each holiday is “The holiday God hates most.” Drunkenness and surfeiting verses are easily interchangeable to fit any occasion he needs them to.

 

Those verses could be used to denounce Christmas, New Year's, Thanksgiving, Valentine's Day, Saint Patrick's Day, or even birthdays. I am still waiting for him to tie it into May the 4th Be With You. The peace and safety angle works there, too.

 

David C. Pack lies.

 

David C. Pack is not a man of his word.

 

David C. Pack has the most astonishing

piss-poor reading comprehension skills

of anyone I have ever heard.

 

But, after seven years, he finally has it all figured out. Go Christmas 2022!

 

 

@ 1:23:35 So, as far as the length of the First Kingdom, I wanted to close with a few quick verses that are just real simple. Easy to remember that help you to understand it’s 15 days. We’re right on track. Not a word, not a syllable, not a vowel or consonant I uttered last week would I change.

 

Give it time. The countdown on the website reflects the beginning of everything at the start of Kislev 16. That is calculated using Jerusalem sunset time on Friday, December 9. This will be Dave's subsequent big failure.

 

History shows that before next Friday morning, Dave will have “new clarity” walking away from this 15-day Kingdom. And when that falls apart, so does his case for Christmas 2022.

 

He will play the biblical accordion again and compress the First Kingdom to less than 15 days, then may switch back to the events being concurrent rather than consecutive. That would buy him an additional 15 days when Santa fails to eat your cookies and milk on the night of December 24.

 

Wait for it. It shall surely come. Though it hesitates. Dave's waffling. Dave's squirming. Dave's wiggling. Dave's clarifying. He will not hold fast to next Friday morning until next Friday morning. Remember, he is a caver who likes to be right about being wrong, so he can turn and point out his own "we" errors.

 

David C. Pack lies.

 

More will be covered tomorrow.

The Most Perfect and Prophetically Accurate COG Prophet Ever To Exist Says That Dave Pack Is A False Prophet

 


It is a chilly night on the central coast as the area prepares for winter rain to hit later this week. That chilliness extends deep within the Five Cities area and into the heart of the world's foremost theologian and the greatest Church of God leader to ever exist in human history. The Great Beto Bob has been really perturbed by Dave Pack's latest prophetic vomit, so much so that he has two significant pieces on Dave's latest utterances.

In the eyes of Beto, there is a zero percent chance of any other man leading a COG of ever being a real prophet of God. The god of the Churches of God can ONLY work through one human being and no one else. No one has been foreordained before the foundations of the world were even dreamed up as being the ONE sent at the end times to witness to the church and the world than our very own Beto Bob, the Great Bwana of Africa and 150 Caucasians. The world's foremost prophet is the only TRUE COG prophet to ever be quoted on MSNBC, in the Washington Post, and on numerous right-wing conspiracy sites. Aren't you impressed!!!!!!!!!!!

So, it is really irksome that Dave Pack gets more press time than he does by making so many prophetic utterances.

The Great Beto believes that no one on earth has been more vocal than he has been in denouncing Dave and that he has NEVER been wrong!

Furthermore, David Pack did not make his statements on God’s authority–God cannot be wrong, but David Pack will again be. 
 
So, no, RCG followers will not look like Christ on December 9th, 2022. 
 
And no, the Day of the Lord will not begin on December 24th, 2022. 
 
For over a decade, I have denounced false predictions of David Pack–I have never been wrong in my denouncements, and he was never right when I posted he would be wrong.

It doesn't take a rocket scientist or the mind of a high schooler to know that all COG prophets have been professional liars. Not one single thing any of them have ever predicted has EVER come to pass and NEVER will! That includes Herbert Armstrong and all of his apostate progeny down through the decades.

The Great Beto goes on to say how Pack is misleading people. Notice that the Great Beto cannot do such a thing. In fact, the Great Beto has written a "book" on the subject that makes all references points point to himself as the only true prophet of the church, which we all know to be a blatant lie.

David Pack has made many wrong prophetic announcements, misunderstands prophecy, and has been misleading people prophetically. 
 
To learn more about the role and requirements to be a prophet please check out the article How To Determine If Someone is a True Prophet of God

Beto's very own book damns him as a liar. 

After much chest thumping and stroking, the Great Beto has this to say about Dave:

David Pack is NOT leading God’s work.

Of course, the Great Beto launches right into declaring himself as the ONE TRUE prophet sent to the church.

And that is why we in the Continuing Church of God believe we are leading what I have termed the final phase of the work. We successfully reached millions on very little income, because we have not “despised the day of small things” and we know God will be faithful. 
 
It will be through God’s Spirit, not a bunch of money or buildings intended to impress those outside of RCG to join with RCG as David Pack has long hoped. Sadly, many are still listening to him and his covetous pleas for money. 
 
Of course, I have long warned against RCG, never believed that David Pack was an apostle, and doubt he is actually a converted Christian. People can do what they want with their assets, but I, of course, will not be one to send RCG any.

Beto ends with this:

I believe that David Pack is false, is covetous, is a bully, causes the way of truth to be blasphemed, is lustful for money, and speaks great swelling words of emptiness because of his own corrupted ego. 
 
Hopefully, people in RCG will wake up. 
 
Will those of you associated with RCG anoint your eyes? 
 
David Pack is false and is not faithful. 
 
While David Pack can say what he wants, I consider many of his statements to be false and irresponsible. Sadly, I also believe his position will reflect poorly on the COGs. 
 
And as far as predictions go, over time, David Pack was repeatedly proven himself to be false and unreliable. People in RCG should “anoint their eyes” and admit and act on that truth.

Sadly in COGland, there is NO ONE and I repeat NO ONE who is a prophet of God. Never have we had one and there will never be one. There is no need for one, particularly after the scores of professional liars the church has already been subjected to. 

Beto Bob is a self-righteous, vain, covetous bully he seeks to intimidate people into following his improperly named "continuing" Church of "god". 

The people of God should anoint their eyes and admit the church has no prophets in its midst and actually does not need one, particularly if they really followed the ONE they claim they are following.


Dave Pack: "On God’s authority at 9:35 AM on Friday, December 9th, Jerusalem time, which is sundown at 4:35 PM. That's when you will look like Christ. Period."

 


The Biblical Accordion

 

The accordion is a musical instrument that sucks in air and blows out air. It expands and contracts. You play the keyboard with one hand and press buttons with the other. “Weird Al” Yankovic made a world-famous career playing it, and now David C. Pack of The Restored Church of God is following suit.

 

"Weird Al" rose to the top creating parodies of popular songs. David C. Pack sinks to the bottom creating parodies of prophetic understanding.

 

No one else in the history of the Church of God is more "it is," "it is not," "it is," "it is not," and “beginning of the month," "middle of the month," "beginning of the month," "middle of the month," than David C. Pack. We are privileged to witness in our lifetime the biblical accordion played by a human-sized buffoon wearing a tie that we must call “Mister.”

 

The impossible-to-fathom-it-really-happened “The Greatest Unending Story! (Part 406)” was given to an unimpressed audience on the Sabbath of November 26, 2022. Some RCG brethren are choosing to opt-out of watching it. The Member Services tracking numbers will prove that. Dave is not the ratings superstar he once was.

 

Following the established church tradition of "it is the end," "it is not the end," "it is the end," and "it is not the end," this quick reminder is from ten days prior.

 

Part 405 – November 16, 2022

@ 00:52 The Series will be over. So, because of timing, I think we all know that this could readily be called “Final Part Number 405.”

 

The hireling enablers on the third floor at the Hall of Administration had to roll up the Series Checkered Flag and return it to the storage closet. But they are used to that by now.

 

Since the Grand Poobah Thanksgiving Failure of 2022 occurred on Kislev 1 this past Thursday, Da
ve has moved to the middle of the month to keep his fantasy construct together, just placing it on a different square of the game board. He laid the groundwork for a new date with a series of Prophecy Updates.

 

If you reread the latest update, the new 57 minutes of clarity erases what that announcement erased.

 

Prophecy Update – Thursday, November 24, 2022

This puts our watch day-to-day, which always leaves us more comfortable. We know this much, it can't go past the halfway mark in Kislev.

 

The watch is no longer day-to-day, meaning they are less comfortable again. The halfway mark IS the new big deal, not just up to it. Maybe Dave’s head cleared up once he digested the turkey, gravy, and beer from the ungrateful, commandment-breaking Thanksgiving supper.

 

 

Skipping ahead to what everyone wants to know: Did Dave set a new date, and was he clear about it? Was there waffling or wishy-washy language?

 

You tell me. You can watch it or read it.




Part 406 – November 26, 2022

@ 42:33 And on God’s authority, I’m gonna tell you what [Luke12:39] means. And this is critical.

 

@ 43:50 We’re in the right month. So, if he [Dave, the good man of the house] had known the exact time the way God has revealed it, he would tell the church, and I’m doing that now. It’s about twelve days and some additional hours at 9:35 AM on Friday, December 9th, Jerusalem time, which is sundown at 4:35 PM. That's when you will look like Christ. Period. Or the Bible means something different. God has countermanded His word…

 

@ 51:22 You’re blessed [salvation] exactly fifteen days before billions walk in white and the rest of the 144,000 are settled.

 

@ 53:50 Just like Zechariah 14:7 and other places, when God arrives in Jerusalem on the Day of the Lord at exactly sunset on December 24th with all saints who receive eternal life then. Call it Christmas Eve. On December 9th at the exact same moment, 9:35 AM our time, fifteen days earlier, the moment of sunset in Jerusalem that begins Kislev 16 and the exact mid-point of the month, certain others will receive salvation either first or second.

 

He is pretty declarative during his 57 minutes. Before you tremble in fear at his awesomeness, remember his terrible habit of being sure about everything that later proves false.

 

Part 403 – November 5, 2022

@ 04:58 And we’re gonna take a look at why I can say November with certainty.

 

Part 405 – November 16, 2022

@ 1:34:37 Now, if it is not this Sabbath, I don’t understand Luke 12, Matthew 24. I don't understand the math. And I don't understand Zechariah or Habakkuk 2. I don't understand how all of those verses point to he's [Elijah] gonna speak on the Sabbath, but it isn't. The Sabbath is never used for any of the Kingdoms.

 

@ 1:38:05 It makes perfect sense. For the first time in my 56 ½ years of studying prophecy, it all makes perfect sense. Simple.

 

Need I go back further?

 

Dave spent thirty minutes proving that when the Bible says someone is “blessed” it means “salvation.” That is the big reveal from Part 406. Shush. Do not tell anyone I told you.

 

Now that the skimmers are satisfied, they can go back to posting pictures of their cats sleeping.

 

 

At the beginning of the message, Dave opened with the obvious despite being wrong for the last 405 Parts of the Series.

 

@ 00:27 We should all know by now that Kislev is the month we’ve been looking for.

 

@ 00:59 We should all know by now this is fulfilled in 2022. You know the many reasons. Both month and year should be absolutely settled in your mind.

 

Maybe not as settled as Tammuz 1 or Cheshvan 1 or Thanksgiving, but settled for sure.

 

 

In an astounding parallel, Dave describes an aspect of the apostasy in The Worldwide Church of God thirty years ago without connecting it to the apostasy today in The Restored Church of God.



There are folks inside RCG right now…I have been talking to them…that experience exactly what Dave describes.

 

@ 01:16 About thirty years ago, I began to be really concerned that I could not remain in The Worldwide Church of God much longer.

 

The number of defections inside RCG is increasing. Concern is a mild way to describe the horrific conditions I hear about. Some details are shocking, even to me. It makes me sad. It makes me angry. Some are taking the steps needed to realize they cannot remain inside RCG because God has not remained inside RCG.

 

There is a spirit of fear and confusion, and distress. The days of shining faces and sparkling eyes are over in RCG. To stay is to continue to endure the anguish of heart and mind.

 

@ 01:38 And I knew that the church was going off a cliff and they were moving toward Christmas.

 

RCG started going off the cliff in a significant way in 2015 when David C. Pack self-elected himself Elijah the Prophet and then, later, That Prophet. Jesus Christ just wasn’t cutting it anymore.

 

It is ironic that Dave is teaching the brethren to anticipate Christmas Eve as the time when God will give them salvation. Wow. Dave was concerned about Christmas thirty years ago, and folks inside RCG are concerned about Christmas today. An apostasy then. And apostasy now.

 

And Dave is blind to it all. What the implications are. What it all really means. Are you RCG zealots looking forward to Christmas this year more than any other? Post it on social media and see how fast your field minister or the lady-minders jump on that.

 

If I were the devil, I would want everyone in God’s way to joyfully anticipate Christmas. I would want people to consider December 24/25 forever the most blessed day of their existence.

 

Santa really is a type of Christ. The pagans and the Catholics were right, after all.

 

@ 01:49 I was extremely careful who I talked to because I knew I could be reported, so I had to move carefully to buy as much time as I could to help as many as I could.

 

RCG is a snitcher colony. The caution the brethren have to exercise is mounting. Who to trust and who to avoid. Say one wrong thing to the wrong person, and you are out. You cannot talk to your minister. You cannot talk to your brethren. Some are even worried about how to approach their spouse. It all has to be done with care. What an awful way to live. It has gotten much worse since I left.

 

The Bible is alive before their face, and they are afraid to talk about it. This is the current environment of RCG.

 

Brethren, you are not alone. There are more like you than the ministry wants you to think.

 

Later in the message, Dave revamped his fear tactics for those considering leaving.

 

@ 52:03 When I watch people just stand up and violently commit suicide and leave and go to the devil's world, I say, "Man, this is hard. What’s wrong with them?” They take hold of death with both hands earnestly, and they're sitting right here ready to go first. So, I mean, you do have to hold on. It's bad out there.

 

It’s worse in there.

 

Leaving RCG is equated to violent suicide. And something is wrong with them.

 

David C. Pack and the enablers at Headquarters, including the Coffee Kid and Pepper Boy, are what is wrong. Prophetic fraud. Doctrinal instability. Blasphemy. Confusion. Lies. Heresy. That is what is wrong with them, Dave. They can no longer stomach witnessing your poison. Their spirit is sore vexed.

 

God is making the truth so plain it cannot be denied. He is not a part of what RCG is doing. He is not a part of what David C. Pack is teaching. There is a growing spirit of darkness, and it is making people ill.

 

They do not want to leave. But they know they must. Fleeing is the only sane option.

 

 

@ 25:21 And I wish I had seen this. It would’ve been clearer because I’ve resolved everything, brethren. Everything.

 

No matter how resolved everything is, as December 9 approaches, so will the wiggle room.

 

Maybe now would be an uncomfortable time to bring this up.

 

Part 403 – November 6, 2022

@ 03:03 Every last bit of that picture was settled and still is settled. As I said last time, this framework can no longer change. It’s settled. We can trust all the scriptures that hold it in place.

 

The accordion plays a different tune each time Dave speaks. Something is settled. Then unsettled. Something is resolved, then unresolved. Something is simple but requires more clarity.

 

Your eyes and ears do not deceive you, folks. David C. Pack is not a man of his word.

 

 

@ 30:12 We're gonna go read a verse, and we’re gonna understand it correctly for the first time.

 

Dave is talking about the 1335 days of Daniel 12:12. In 2011, the 8-part sermon "The 1335 Days of the Son of Man" sold the idea to RCG members that they understood that correctly for the first time. I challenge current members to check in the Sermon Library of Member Services to see if you still have access to those messages. The answer is NO.

 

The point is: In 2011, Dave thought he had it all figured out. Eleven years later, he is pitching the same story using his biblical accordion to play you a tune you are paying dearly for.

 

But that is okay because salvation comes at sunset to start the 1335.

 

@ 45:35 Don’t go to dawn. It’s at evening. Or the Bible isn’t true.

 

Dave has been playing the Either/Or Game for years. He is correct, or the Bible is wrong. Or God is wrong. It cannot possibly be that he has no idea what he is talking about, God is not guiding him, and he is utterly unqualified to preach to anyone. That never seems to be considered.

 

@ 45:41 Or, you could still say, “Well, Mr. Pack, maybe you’re gonna come back in a few days and tell us that the 1335 is a second group ‘cause we thought maybe there were two Kingdoms in there.” Well, we’re gonna hafta dispel some things.

 

Dave is projecting internal criticisms manifested as external sources. He knows he will change his teaching in a few days or a few weeks because that is his custom. He is aware that the brethren are aware. Awkward…

 

They have good reason to doubt. He just taught that the 1335 did not apply to them after telling them they made it a few weeks earlier. The same accordion is playing the same sour notes.

 

 

@ 54:32 So, brethren, I’m pretty sure you all know how this is gonna end.

 

Ooh. Ooh. Pick me. Pick me. Me Me. Me.

 

Ahem. It is not gonna end well. David C. Pack is gonna fail again. December 9 will come and go with not so much as a sneeze, biblically speaking. There will be an update announcement just before the deadline to wish-away expectations and erase emphatic declarations that will only prove that Dave was right about knowing it was wrong.

 

It is gonna end with more headaches for the RCG ministry and more distress for the RCG brethren. It is gonna end with more exit letters. And more shame for the entire COG community.

 

It is gonna end with God’s name being further blasphemed. Dave better pray that God has more patience than Popeye.

 

Maybe I am just being a Negative Nancy. But Dave has a more optimistic view.

 

@ 54:37 So, relief and peace begins now. But, there’s actually more relief and peace to learn that continues Tuesday with a massive support proof and other fascinating things we will learn. I mean fascinating.

 

There is no relief and peace inside RCG. No relief and peace at Headquarters. No relief and peace inside the Third Floor Executive Imaginarium. No relief and peace for the field ministers. No relief and peace for the brethren.

 

That statement was the source of guffaws and snickers all over the world. The man is so out of touch with reality you could almost feel sorry for him. For me, that time has passed.

 

 

Just before the end, Dave threw a prophetic curveball that caught my ears regarding Part 407.

 

@ 57:01 Now, I’m gonna explain things like I’m rushing right now, but it is not the rushing of Habakkuk 2:2, which I’ve come to understand.

 

He has been droning about that verse for years. I cannot help but wonder if he FINALLY read my article from August covering that. If he teaches my explanation of what it really means, I will cry laughing. Pretty please, Dave. Use my reasoning so I can print it out and send it to my mom.

 

The biblical accordion will continue playing with a promised "avalanche" of "massive proof" that will end the Series on Tuesday. Fat chance. It is. It is not. It is. It is not.

 

Learning from “Weird Al” Yankovic did not go as well as he thought.

 

David C. Pack has become an accordion-playing parody of himself. And that is not funny.
