The Government of God
Understanding Offices and Duties
By David C. Pack
The Church of God—the biblical Body of Christ—is not divided, and is the only place where the government of God is present, the only organization Christ leads. He has placed offices and assigned special duties within His Church. All of the splinters have rejected God’s government! This has led to mass confusion about these God-ordained offices and duties. What exactly is a deacon?—a local elder?—a preaching elder?—a pastor?—an evangelist?—a prophet?—an apostle? What about “teachers”? Who are the “messengers” to the seven Churches in Revelation 2 and 3? What do they do? Where will the Two Witnesses come from? How does the “watchman” of Ezekiel 33:7 function in this age? How do all these work and serve, and in unity? Who holds authority to ordain today? Are splinter ordinations valid? Which office(s) can “bind and loose”? Can anyone add truth or traditions to the Church? Who is authorized to make Church-wide administrative judgments? Who supervises all congregations? This vital book answers all of these questions—and many more!

The True Church

One Organization, or Many?

By David C. Pack

Jesus Christ built His Church nearly 2,000 years ago—and promised it would never be destroyed (Matt. 16:18)! Is this Church and Christ’s Body still a single unified organization? Or, after the death of Herbert W. Armstrong in 1986, and the prophesied “falling away” (II Thes. 2:3), did it split into multiple organizations, groups and scattered individuals? Christ is not divided, but can circumstances divide His Church and Body? Do—or can—the actions of men make this possible? The Catholics, the Protestants, the WCG apostates, and the splinter leaders all have clear teachings on this subject. What did Mr. Armstrong teach—and does it align with the Bible? This book presents facts, history and the proof of Scripture. It brings plain answers!

Mounting Worldwide Crisis in Agriculture

Dale Schurter

Government leaders worldwide have come face-to-face with a dangerous—yet little understood—crisis in agriculture!

Today’s farmlands are tired, overworked and being depleted. In man’s husbandry of the soil, his impulse is to take the simple, fast, cheap, easy way—either ignoring or not recognizing the real causes of the problem. Too often, agriculturists see only the effects, while the actual causes of the crisis grow worse and more complicated.

If we are to preserve the well-being of the soil for our sake, and for the sake of our children, and children’s children, a major reform in modern agriculture is a must. We must recognize our agricultural problems—their causes—and correct them.

WHY are we in an agricultural crisis? Where is it leading—and what is the solution?

The True Jesus Christ

Unknown to Christianity

By David C. Pack

A single book can change people forever. The True Jesus Christ – Unknown to Christianity does this!

There has never been a book like it!

Bringing God’s perspective, and in plain language, it is based entirely on Scripture, and known facts of history. It examines the life, ministry and teachings of Jesus as never before, and excludes popular tradition, theory and opinion—the usual approach to His life.

Do you understand Jesus’ family life, social environment and the first-century world, as well as how He was both God and Man, what His Coming achieved and the purpose of His triumphant Return? Have you comprehended the long, agonizing hours during which Jesus was illegally arrested, tried, humiliated, tortured and subjected to the worst instrument of execution devised by men? What about His clash with Satan, and how this determined the ultimate destiny of all nations? And what of how that battle is tied to the true gospel, the only message Jesus brought—but so few have heard?

The Bible speaks of “Jesus Christ,” but also warns of “another Jesus.” Almost impossible to believe, nearly all worship the wrong one! How does one know the difference—how do you discern which is which?

In-depth knowledge of the true Jesus Christ is about to enter your view for the first time…

There Came a Falling Away

By David C. Pack

Herbert W. Armstrong led the Worldwide Church of God for 52 years, teaching hundreds of true doctrines. He proved them from the Bible and told us to do the same. His successors changed them all. Do you think some changes were right? Do you realize ALL were wrong? Have you recognized them? Here they are!

The Trinity

Is God Three-In-One?

By David C. Pack

Is God a “trinity”—three persons in one being? Almost all professing Christians answer “yes.” Long the litmus test of traditional Christianity, the triune god is deemed a mystery, unable to be understood. Other questions arise: Does the sacrifice of Christ fit with the “three-in-one” god? How did Jesus—a third of one being—“extricate” Himself from the Father and the Holy Spirit to die as Savior? Millions assume the Bible proves the trinity. But does it? If God is not a trinity, what is He? Have scholars, theologians and Bible students missed anything? Here, made plain, are the facts of history—and what the Bible really teaches about what and whom is its author!

Surviving “Perilous Times”

By David C. Pack

Civilization has entered the “last days”—II Timothy 3:1. The context through chapter 4, verse 4, reveals that “perilous times” have come upon both the world and the Church. There are now many kinds of deception and “sleight of men” (Eph. 4:14) being foisted on unsuspecting and gullible brethren. This volume addresses some of the worst of those deceptions, and assists in helping you survive them all!

“Anoint Your Eyes”

Christ’s Warning to His People

By David C. Pack

Christ warns Laodiceans to “anoint your eyes”—WHY? What did He mean? WHO did He mean—and how can you know? This all-important instruction, to all Christians living in the last days, must be understood. This extensive book—the most crucial written to the WCG splinters—thoroughly covers things never before explained, and in extraordinary detail. For those hoping to escape the Great Tribulation, it reveals exactly what Christ meant and how to apply this most critical warning!

The Work of God

Its Final Chapter!

By David C. Pack

Herbert W. Armstrong announced the kingdom of God to the world and proclaimed the special warning to the modern nations of Israel for 52 years! Did he teach that his death would end this commission, believing both duties to be his own “private work”? How did he instruct his successor? Does “the kingdom shall be preached in all the world” (Matt. 24:14) before the “end come” still apply? What of “go…and teach all nations…all things whatsoever I have commanded you” (Matt. 28:19-20)? What about “prophesy again” in Revelation 10:11? What is the gospel? Is Christ part of it? Did Mr. Armstrong teach—or does the Bible—that God’s people should give to relief organizations and disaster victims? What did Jesus say? Also, what about “local” or “personal evangelism”? Why has The Restored Church of God rewritten all the literature of the Worldwide Church of God? What was our strategic plan? What are our two operational plans? What does prophecy say about the final Work of God?

America and Britain in Prophecy

By David C. Pack

All nations are now rushing toward the grand smash events foretold to occur in the “last days.” Humanity plunges ahead—blind, pleasure-crazed and largely detached from important world events occurring daily.

American, British, Canadian and other Western leaders would take action, if they only knew what lies ahead. Great prophetic truths, revealing amazing—indeed astonishing—climactic changes soon to stagger all civilization, go unrecognized.

But Western leaders, with the rest of the world, remain in ignorance—WHY?

Now you can learn what vast millions have not understood!

The Bible’s Difficult Scriptures Explained!

By David C. Pack

Many study the Bible—but stumble over difficult verses, leaving them confused and without proper understanding. They are then led to accept twisted, distorted and outright false explanations of what should be God’s plain meaning from Scripture. But this need not be—you can understand God’s Word! Here are the Bible’s difficult scriptures explained!

I Will Send Elijah to Restore All Things

By David C. Pack

God foretold, “I will send you Elijah…before the…day of the Lord” (Mal. 4:5). Jesus said this man would “restore all things” (Matt. 17:11). What did He mean? Who is this person? Has he already come? Is he yet to appear? Was he Herbert W. Armstrong? Will he be one of the Two Witnesses—or someone else? How is he recognized? Can he be identified? If there is proof, what is it? How significant is this issue? What implications derive from it and is there danger in ignoring or minimizing its proper understanding? It is time to end the confusion and deception clouding this great prophecy. Here is the truth about the end-time Elijah!

Saturday or Sunday

Which Is the Sabbath?

By David C. Pack

Most professing Christians observe Sunday. Yet, the Jewish people (and a few others) keep the seventh-day Sabbath. Was this day only for the Jews, or only for ancient Israel?

Does the New Testament establish Sunday as the Lord’s Day—or is the Sabbath still in effect? Does it make any difference? If so, which day is the Christian Sabbath? Can it be proven?

Should Accusers Be Answered?

By David C. Pack

Christ described our time as the age of hatred, betrayal, offense and lawlessness (Matt. 24:10-12). Many today use and promote innuendo, rumors, outright lies and other forms of deception to confuse and divide God’s people, and defeat their confidence in Christ’s ability to govern His Church. When presented with such information, what do—what will—you do? Christ said, “If they have persecuted Me, they will persecute you!” This means attacks, sometimes vicious, are a fact of life for God’s people. The true Church and especially its leaders stand squarely in Satan’s crosshairs. It will receive the brunt of persecution prior to the Tribulation, when Satan will turn on the “remnant” of Laodicea (Rev. 12:17). Certain questions arise: Should accusers be answered? What spirit motivates them? Did Jesus answer His accusers? Mr. Armstrong was attacked throughout his ministry. Did he answer accusers? Should I? What did Mr. Armstrong teach about this? What does God’s Word say? This book reveals the answers—and is the policy statement of The Restored Church of God about persecution and accusation, and our response to them.

Sex

Its Unknown Dimension

By David C. Pack

The world has been ignorant of the true purposes of sex. The result has been untold pain and suffering for the masses! This misery—now epidemic—is measured in disease, new kinds of perversion, unwanted pregnancies yielding abortions, illegitimate children or unwanted children in marriage, sky-rocketing divorce rates, which in turn produce corresponding numbers of jumbled families, bankruptcies, court battles and even crime.

Sadly, these conditions grow worse and more complicated, with each new generation compounding the problems and evils of the previous one.

Tragedy, unhappiness and confusion about sex and marriage have afflicted every nation of the world for thousands of years, and people have not known where to turn for the answers—the solutions— to so many ill effects, now running rampant.

But there are answers—there are solutions—and you can know them. What has not been known is that there is a vital missing dimension to marriage and sex that was not explained until the twentieth century.

This book reveals it!

Tomorrow’s Wonderful World

An Inside View!

By David C. Pack

Where is the world going? Why is it filled with problems, troubles, evils and ills, causing unhappiness, confusion and misery of every kind? What lies ahead? Is there hope for a different—and truly better—world? Yes! A wonderful world—unlike anything ever seen on Earth—is coming. Its arrival is certain. This book presents an inside view of what it will be like!

Train Your Children God’s Way

By David C. Pack

The family unit is under assault from an ever increasing array of forces, with children enduring the brunt of the attack. Parents are now facing almost impossible odds against successfully rearing their children!

Yet, God commands parents to “Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it” (Prov. 22:6).

But how can parents—one alone or two working together—do this? What chance do they have of rearing balanced, moral children in today’s wild, immoral world? What should children be taught? How should they be instructed? And can you be sure that what you teach your children will stay with them for life?

God’s Word addresses these and many other questions—and the answers are not what you expect!

Dating and Courtship

God’s Way

By David C. Pack

Countless millions of shattered families began with wrong dating habits. These habits made proper courtship impossible. And the results have been tragic. The almost universal effects of modern dating demonstrate widespread ignorance, even on the most basic points of right dating. Almost no one understands the real purpose of dating or of the courtship that can ensue. The next step, achieving a happy marriage, then also becomes impossible. There is a right way to date! What is it? And there are right and wrong people to date. How can you know the difference? It is time to unlearn the wrong principles, acquired from society—and to learn and apply God’s true principles, leading to happy marriages and families! Presenting God’s perspective, this book reveals those principles.

The Ten Commandments

“Nailed to the Cross” or Required for Salvation?

By David C. Pack

For every cause there is an effect. Obeying the Ten Commandments identifies the cause that will produce every good and desirable effect. But the world has been deceived, thinking that this great Law is burdensome and harsh, and lacks love and mercy. Yet, the world ignores the plain Word of God: “For this is the love of God, that we keep His commandments and His commandments are not grievous” (I John 5:3). The Ten Commandments are NOT done away! Now you can learn why YOU should keep this living, active, spiritual Law of God.

Where Is the True Church?

and Its Incredible History!

By David C. Pack

Nearly 2,000 years ago, Jesus Christ built His Church—and promised that it could never be destroyed (Matt. 16:18)!

Although foretold to remain small and persecuted, and to appear in seven phases, this Church—with faithful leaders and members in every age—has endured and continued. And it has been recognizable to those knowing what earmarks and signs to look for.

Where has this Church been for nearly two millennia? Can it be found in history and traced to the present day? How is it identified?

As compelling and gripping as anything you will read, here is the astonishing, inspiring and fascinating true story of the Church of God!

The Awesome Potential of Man

By David C. Pack

Prepare to be staggered—stunned beyond belief! Incredible truth has remained hidden—held back—from all humanity for 2,000 years. A deceived world has been kept from knowing the vital missing dimension to resolving mankind’s problems. Scientists, theologians, educators and philosophers have remained ignorant of the truth of why man exists. And yet, this awesome truth—this incredible knowledge—has always been available. But most have not known where to look. Christ came as a newscaster revealing future events—explaining in advance good news for all mankind. This is the astounding story of the true gospel that He brought—and how it involves you!
