David C. Pack: Inept Magician
January 13, 2024 | by Marc Cebrian
David C. Pack is an inept magician whose bumbling talents turn gold into lead. The Pastor General of The Restored Church of God is a failed prophetic alchemist desperately mutating the language of the Bible into the shape of his own corrupt likeness.
David C. Pack is a sorcerer and false teacher about whom the Bible warns. Powered by the Spirit of Error, he plucks all manner of filthiness from the darkness of his mind and presents it as revealed knowledge to the brethren. He sits on the stage at Headquarters performing cheap tricks for his spiritually drained and mentally exhausted audience, who are too weary to bother to prove anything.
He is such an incompetent novice of his craft that anyone paying attention and reading slowly can see the smoke, mirrors, strings, and holes in his tedious act. He declares how dazzled his audience should be when they should flee to the doors to escape his evil stench.
David C. Pack is a blaspheming liar with a long history of conjuring unbiblical illusions devoid of truth:
• The Second Passover is on Iyar 15.
• The Feast of Ingathering is Trumpets, not the Feast of Tabernacles.
• The Last Great Day belongs in the spring instead of the fall.
• New Testament Christians observe new moons.
• Wearing a star is idolatry.
• He is the Branch, not Jesus Christ.
• Jesus Christ will take the Passover symbols on Abib 15 after He returns.
These are all just magic tricks, folks. They are easy to spot when you know how the gag is rigged.
One example of passive magic appeared during “The Greatest Untold Story! (Part 488)” on December 30, 2023. Dave dramatically stood up, and instead of staring at his crotch, the camera was forced to show the wide shot of the Main Hall.
Wow. Compared to Part 476 on October 21, that room looks very full now.
Those two shots give the impression that Headquarters experienced substantial growth in the past two months. But it is just a lousy gimmick.
No matter how convincing the surface presentation may appear, always remember the substance is a mirage. Here is how Headquarters fabricated the impression of more people:
Part 476 had five rows of five chairs in the front of the Main Hall. Part 488 had four rows of five. The chair count dropped from 50 to 40. Headquarters is not growing even when it appears to be on camera. In typical RCG fashion, a lie is presented as truth. Do not be fooled.
During “The Greatest Untold Story! (Part 489)” on January 6, 2024, David C. Pack shamelessly pulled more skunks out of his hat.
The worst part is that the hirelings at Headquarters, including Bradford Schleifer, Ryan Denee, and Jaco Viljoen all know their boss is making it up. Edward Winkfield has too many moons and stars in his eyes to admit the reality that even the field mollusks understand.
The introduction to Part 489 was a premature self-congratulation.
Part 489 – January 6, 2024
@ 00:01 It’s interesting. Mr. Jezhi, in his prayer, asked that I speak with clarity and power. I think every single message I’ve ever delivered in this Series (at least, the last hundreds), I’ve asked for those exact two things. And I wanna be clear and, where necessary, bring the power that God believes the subject matter demands.
“Clear” and “powerful” are two words David C. Pack thrives on. During my years in the Main Hall after Services, I witnessed the enablers gathered in a semi-circle group-stroking Dave’s inflated ego until he grimaced and his eyes rolled back.
I can still see the faces and hear the voices of some of those men I call friends today, all safely repeating those two rapturous words over and over when Dave sought praise. “Very clear, Mr. Pack. Very powerful.” It was the safest response they could ever offer when put on the spot.
The vipers at Headquarters still provide this verbal fellating in abundance unto this day.
The real truth is David C. Pack has devolved into a feckless, incoherent stutterer constantly interrupting himself with nonsensical parenthetical remarks, which is the audible expression of the chaos churning inside his mind. He is a deranged, confused man spouting deranged, confused ideas.
@ 00:27 So, we've got a series of things to cover, and I told ya there was one more message, and it's tonight…because we are not going beyond tonight. This is it. And we’ll be on the clock (if you will) when I end.
You heard it. The Series is over. Mark your calendar.
One deceitful trick David C. Pack cannot avoid is adding more layers to lie that Jesus Christ will take the Passover Symbols on Abib 15 when He returns. Because the Bible never says this, Dave provides false ancillary ideas.
@ 35:25 Have years always been from Abib 15? Have they always been from Abib 15?
@ 35:48 But, we do know (and this is impossible to argue). This is impossible to argue because it’s literally going forward it’s the the we know that the next one thousand and seven years all begin with a season. The seven years and a thousand absolutely, immutably impossible to argue those begin on the first night of Passover.
The first night of Passover is Abib 14. But Dave is referring to Abib 15, The Night To Be Much Observed, which God calls the beginning of the Days of Unleavened Bread. Separate days in the Bible are blended together for the sole purpose of indulging Dave’s prophetic fetish.
@ 37:28 So, I made an astonishing discovery…this is gonna be a partial clue to understanding how long this first period is that involves three months and a year.
@ 37:49 Now, I ask again, have years always been from Abib 15? We know they will always be going forward. Inarguable.
Inarguable based on only his say-so. Reality is manifested via repetition.
@ 38:00 “What about Exodus 12, Mr. Pack?" and I I’d I’d made some discoveries and I went over and I'll said, “I'll bet if you read,” I learned a a number of things, and I thought, “I gotta go read that again. I'll bet it does not say Abib 1 begins the year. I'll bet it does not.”
David C. Pack seems to come up with his best ideas in the middle of the night.
@ 38:19 I was lying in bed one night, and I've often get up because I gotta make notes and and remember things.
If he is not already up into the wee hours, ideas blast into his sleepy brain, kicking him into action. Dave brute-forces his way through Exodus 12:2 by leaving critical thinking out to freeze on the back porch.
@ 38:35 Now, let's read very carefully. “And the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron in the land of Egypt saying, ‘This month shall be unto you the beginning of months. It shall be the first month of the year to you.’” Now, you can read that once or twenty-one times and see if you can find where it says, "Abib 1. Abib 1 is the start of the year," and you just will not see it.
The absence of words proves his point by utilizing the Power of Presumption. Like when Protestants and Catholics note Saturday is not mentioned alongside the weekly Sabbath verses. Dave uses that same logic.
The problem is that Abib IS the first month, and the first month DOES begin a year. God does not mention the fifteenth of the month. But Dave slithers right around that by inserting his own ideas.
@ 39:12 On the other hand, I'll show you a load of evidence that suggests it's been Abib 15 since the Garden. In fact, I believe I can prove to you that the Garden was literally built in the seven days ("the Creation Week," we call it), seven days. I can prove to you those seven days were the seven Days of Unleavened Bread. "How would you do that, Mr. Pack?" Well, I'll do it quickly but thoroughly.
…but just not correctly. He props up one falsehood by holding up a different future falsehood. The Creation Week lie coming up is another lousy magic trick.
I remember the days in The Restored Church of God when “explaining away the Scriptures” was considered a bad thing that only dishonest Protestant and Catholic ministers would pull. This technique is now the Get’R Done way for establishing heresy as doctrine. How proud of that are you, Brad?
@ 51:46 Exodus 12:2 says now, I just it’s just this is the first month, but it’s the 15th of the month.
David C. Pack cannot prove what he says by quoting the Bible, so he makes the Bible quote him. The man has no fear of God for continuously adding to and taking away from the words of the prophecy of this Book. The words from a man's mouth supersede the words from the mouth of God.
David C. Pack attacks the Jewish people when it suits him but then camps under their huppah when it is most convenient. It is hard to know if he is going to accuse them of being devil-worshipping idolaters or the oracles of God. He keeps both of those options in his back pocket.
@ 53:37 So, the Jews say, “Next year in Jerusalem.” So, they know this. They wanna see Elijah at the Passover table. Well, the Jews know that the year begins the 15th [of Abib]. They’ll say the 1st, but they know that Elijah will be here on the 15th. So, that’s interesting.
That is not interesting. That is a lie. David C. Pack just committed the Jewish people to be participants in his biblical fraud about Abib 15 starting a year. He makes up another “fact” by simply stating it as such.
@ 54:00 So, they know that somehow there’s a year beginning on the 15th, and that's when Elijah will be there just like we can see we're gonna take the symbols with Christ.
Judaism now agrees with Packism? Boy, Dave really, really, really needs the beginning of a year to be Abib 15, not Abib 1. He is out on that flimsy limb all by himself. Nobody will want to catch him when he falls. All the hirelings at Headquarters will take a step back and let God’s will be done in that matter.
When David C. Pack says Passover, he means the Days of Unleavened Bread. He adopted the term “seven days of Passover” from Jewish tradition and has cited Ezekiel 45:21, Mark 14, and John 13 as proofs. This hairy topic invaded RCG on April 9, 2020, during “The Greatest Unending Story! (Part 247)” to prove the church was still “on track” and RCG was “not gonna wait another year.” So, consider the source.
My rule of thumb concerning all things RCG is now: If David C. Pack preaches something, you can rest assured it is wrong. History has not budged from this side of the reality fence.
One of the more significant points in Part 489 that Dave used to cap the Series, proving that years begin on Abib 15, is also one of the easiest to refute using a single verse.
@ 54:51 So, you could ask, Were the seven days of Creation the seven days of Passover? It practically says so in Genesis 1. Wow. Really?
Practically? Really? No. Not at all. His interpretive dance through Genesis 1 is anemic wizardry packaged in presumption marinating in supposition.
@ 55:46 Years are all lunar in the Bible.
@ 56:14 “And let them be for lights in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth. And it was so.” Now, tell me how that was a black moon.
@ 56:38 Now, only very careful reading would cause you to notice that. “And it was so, and God made two great lights. The greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night. And He made stars also.” So, the great light at night (let’s be honest) is the moon on a full moon.
Genesis 1:14-18 does not state the moon was visible or full. The Bible only records that God created it to rule the night. Even if you give Dave the point that there was a full moon during Creation, and that happens on the fifteenth of each month, it still shatters his purpose for reading this.
Remember, we are “proving” this concept:
@ 54:51 So, you could ask, Were the seven days of Creation the seven days of Passover? It practically says so in Genesis 1.
Dave left the brethren assuming the Creation Week was the Days of Unleavened Bread, but he mysteriously shied away from stating it after reading those verses. Maybe he caught his own Whoopsie Daisy right there at the front of the room and wanted to bolt away from it as quickly as possible.
Dave could have profited from some “careful reading” if he had bothered to, you know, keep reading.
Genesis 1:19
And the evening and the morning were the fourth day.
If “the seven days of Creation” were the seven Days of Unleavened Bread, the moon would have been created on Day 1, not Day 4. Genesis 1:14-19 takes place on Day 4. If a full moon was Abib 15 on Day 4, then Creation started on Abib 11, not Abib 15. Someone please relay, “Dooh!” to Dave for me.
Dave’s Genesis Lesser Magic Fail: The Creation Week was the same seven days as the Days of Unleavened Bread.
Dave’s Genesis Greater Magic Fail: Abib 15 began the Creation Week, proving years started on Abib 15 since the Garden.
David C. Pack’s astonishingly piss-poor reading comprehension skills thwart his ability to read Bible verses with any understanding. Like his inability to grasp basic math, basic English also taunts him.
Some people believe that Dave is intentionally deceptive with the Scriptures. I do not know the man's heart, but I can report on his dishonest words. By his fruits, we know him clearly. And clearly, he is so inept he is not qualified to preach anything to anyone.
The following statement summarizes the entire Unending Story:
@ 1:36:36 I hope I’ve proven that to you with some simple commentary.
Commentary is the entire foundation of David C. Pack’s doctrines.
@ 1:41:32 You can’t know the day or the hour.
@ 1:41:51 So, we’re on the clock. This is the end.
@ 1:42:02 Lacking something akin to an oracle, the Series is officially done. I’ve told you all that I know. Christ said (if I may be so bold as to quote Him), “All that My Father gave me,” He said to the disciples, “I have told you.” All that I’ve been shown, I’ve told you. We all wanna be like God. Well, in that one way, I wanna be faithful and be like God. I don’t have anything else to say. I’ve corrected the things WE got wrong. We're done. We're on the clock, and it literally can be (by any standard that I can see) any time in the next 21 days. Godspeed the earlier dates. Good night.”
The timer on exrcg.org is already counting down to sunset on January 27, 2024. Trust me, none of us will need to wait that long for him to change his tune and move the dates around again. Whether he utters something specific or “hints” at a range, they are all guaranteed to fail because God is not using David C. Pack to teach any of this to anyone.
The Pastor General of The Restored Church of Another god is a hypocritical blaspheming liar, false prophet, false teacher, and advocate of antichrist theology. He is incapable of reading Bible verses with correct understanding and is living in a hell of his own choosing.
I am no magician or oracle of special knowledge but simply an unordained non-prophet/non-psychic. However, I dare to pull a few reasons out of my non-existent, non-magical top hat that will compel David C. Pack to unretire the Series to astound his captured audience with Part 490, 491, 492, 493, 494, 495, 496, 497, 498, 499, and the inevitable Part 500.
Reason #1
Dave's 21-day theory expires on January 27, 2024. The man cannot endure a failed date as being the exclamation point in his never-ending saga. He will return to "clarify" what "WE misunderstood" to make up new stuff to drag things along.Reason #2
He is a narcissistic attention addict. Being away from the focus of church brethren for more than a few days causes him to break out in hives. The spotlight needs to be focused on someone, and since The Restored Church of Another god cannot focus on the true Jesus Christ, they have to focus on their human idol: David Crowl Pack.
Reason #3
This is the best-kept secret at Headquarters because nobody wants to be the one responsible for telling Dave about it. They all know what his reactions will be. There will be a solar eclipse across North America at the cusp of Abib 1 on April 8 at 3:15 PM ET, and Wadsworth will be in the direct path of totality. Is that just a coincidence?
The total eclipse will occur on Adar II 29 here, but it will be Abib 1 in Jerusalem during those four minutes. Once Dave finds this out, all the prophetic timing will shift away from Passover falsely being on Abib 15 and back onto Abib 1. Wait for it. It shall surely come.
No matter what foolish tricks David C. Pack tries to perform, they will all end in failure. His illusions have the tangible substance of cigarette smoke and are wafted away just as easily. None of his doctrines are rooted in truth but are merely distorted reflections bounced off warped mirrors and split through corrupt prisms.
There may come a frightening moment for David C. Pack when he pulls a venomous serpent from his hat that bites him. Only in that horrific moment will he realize what was real and what has been false, inept magic.
