A while back Dave took a large group of his HQ staff to Petra to scout it out as the "place of final training." At great expense to the tithe paying members of the Restored Church of God it was all expenses paid as Dave wined and dined his fellow travelers.
A problem arose when Dave and crew got there; they were appalled at the number of people that also knew about the place. It was over run by hoards of unclean unconverted people. Hotels outside the entrance, food vendors and restaurants. Hundreds and hundreds of buses and travel vans vomiting out thousands of the unwashed masses.
Those unwashed masses don't even take into count the supposed tens of thousands of COG members from hundreds and hundreds of splinter groups who will also be gathering there. Can't you just see it now - out side the narrow passage way will be Pack, Flurry, Meredith, Franks, et all, fighting over who gets to go in first and who is going to be the grand leader for the next 3 1/2 years. There would be no need to be sent to the lake of fire, this would certainly be 3 1/2 years of pure hell with all of these buffoons there together.
It was sooooooo appallingly disgusting to Dave that he has decided the Petra is no longer the place of safety. He hasn't quit yet figured out where it will be, but you can be assured it will be the most incredible place on the planet. God's most incredible super-duper COG can't be relegated to some over-trod place like Petra anymore, It's faaaaaaaaaaar too common. God's most superfantabulous COG ever, has to have a special place beyond all expectations. Is Wadsworth prepared for Dave's super enormous and spectacularly large group of 1,200 all gathering at RCG's HQ for 3 1/2 years?
