The Systematic Breaking-Down Of The Individual -- Breaking-Down Tony Oloans

 THUMB SCREWS 
 TORTURE DEVICES 
 "ntcc is an abusive and destructive cult that purposely breaks down individuals so they can be controlled by the few nepotistic 'leaders' of the cult."

During my nine year tenure in ntcc I would often witness this tragic sequence of individuality and expression of Love for the Lord being torn down by ntcc megalomaniacs [power hungry control freaks] in order to control folks like mindless string puppets.

Lets give one simple example:  Tony Oloans

During one of the classes taught by mikey kekel, he asked the class "What does God require of You?" (I can still hear the insolent tone in kekel's voice.)

An eager Tony Oloans raised his hand along with other students. kekel called on Tony, who sprang to his feet, happy to answer:

"But to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God."

That was correct:

He hath shewed thee, O man, what is good; and what doth the LORD require of thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God?
Micah 6:8

Upon answering, Tony sat down to resume taking notes.  kekel then proceeded to 'teach', but intentionally laced the material with the same question over and over. Each time kekel purposely called on Tony to stand and give the exact same answer.

It was painful to watch my enthusiastic and excited brother in Christ begin to doubt himself as kekel deliberately humiliated him in this calculated fashion. As the process was repeated Tony's face showed more and more distress, passing from glowing excitement, to a nervous glance -- 'Am I doing something wrong?' -- to embarrassed blush, to open humiliation, to discouragement and doubt and fear and ....
Why?

ntcc is a cult. ntcc is an abusive and destructive cult that purposely breaks down individuals so they can be controlled by the few nepotistic 'leaders' of the cult.

This breaking down process is deliberate and devilish.

If you are contemplating joining or attending ntcc, save yourself and loved ones some major heartache and turn the other way. Go find a good bible-based church where people, especially the leaders, live what they preach.  And steer clear of the cult called New Testament Christian Churches Of America, Inc. where the 'leaders' are hypocrites.

Today's Subject: All are Welcome!

Come Into My Parlor ...
... Said The Spyder To The Fly ...
At ntcc I'm sure you've heard the expression:
"All are welcome"
While this is a catch phrase ntcc uses to allure people out to their cult meetings, it is actually a true statement.  They do welcome all to their cult meetings.  They welcome all so they can blast all.  At ntcc the doors are open to all; but if you don't like the preaching, "Don't let the door hit you where the good Lord split you!" ...

Most of what I've seen in my years of servitude in the servicemen's homes was that many of the pastors would run people off before they ever got a chance to consider being saved.  The ntcc preacher would preach salvation through one side of his mouth, holiness through the other side of his mouth while making it personal by scowling and growling, then using his fingers to point at folks, while glaring with his eyes to make them feel more uncomfortable.  All this on top of the conviction of the Holy Ghost.  It's a wonder any of us ever got saved.

Let's take a closer look at who's welcome and who is not. 

WELCOME:

1.  Saved - definition varies from pastor to pastor.

2.  Tithe payer.

3.  Gives in all offerings.

4.  Men must dress like dorks in wingtips, white shirts, and polyester slacks.

5.  Women must wear dresses, skirts and scarves.

6.  Women are made to wear wigs if their natural hear is too short or sloppy for ntcc standards.

7.   Men and Women must attend all sevices and events.

8.  Men and Women that shout AMEN and PREACH to everything the preacher says are always welcome.

NOT WELCOME:

1.  Unsaved after their 1st service.

2.  Those who don't pay tithe.

3.  Those who don't give in offerings.

4.   Men who wear shorts, jeans, t-shirts, tight clothing, or if they look too cool.

5.   Men who are not clean shaven.

6.   Men with tattoos that show, piercings or long hair.

7.   Women with short hair.

8.   Women wearing pants, shorts and tight clothing.

9.   Women that believe they are to be treated equal to men.

10. Women and men that disagree with anything that comes accross the pulpit.

11. Women that are called to do something other than wash dishes and cook.

12. Women that wear make-up.

13. Men who wear double-breasted suits.

14. Those who have televisions, unless they are used to advertise for church.

15.  No child molesters unless they are a future board member  fondling the founder's daughter, or are on a double date with him doing the same, or if it is the founder himself fondling a young girl, or if he runs the print shop, or works in the office for rodger w. davis.

16.  Children that "hinder the work of Gawd".

Do you get the picture here?  Now I'm not saying that ntcc preachers always blast people on these points from behind the pulpit; but these are some of the do's and dont's that will eventually get you an invitation to leave the org. if they are not adhered to.  While you might not be blasted on all of these items from behind the pulpit you will be made to feel unwelcome.  ntcc knows that if they can make people feel unwelcome those folks  won't come back.

The emphasis in ntcc is placed more on the standards than it is on the Love of Christ.  

There is however one subject that will always without fail get you blasted from behind the pulpit and that is not paying tithe or giving in offerings.  If ntcc pastors were to spend their time behind the pulpit preaching the love of God and lifting up Christ rather than coming across like a snake oil salesmen after your money, they would get more people to stay and give willingly; and their churches would prosper. 

I remember there was this older guy that used to come out to the servicemen's home in Ft. Bragg and give large amounts of money in the offerings; and he would bring hundreds of one dollar bills and give them out to the brethren.  He was allowed to hang around inspite of the fact that he didn't conform to any of the ntcc standards other than the money flow standards.  He hung around through 3 pastor's and even showed up at a conference at Holly Hills and was praised by rwd from behind the pulpit.  It turned out that this man was a homosexual that was attracted to the young men at the servicemen's home and was finally run off after it was reported that he physically tried to get into the pants of one of the servicemen; but this advance was refused; and the man was outed by the shocked soldier.

As for # 15 on the list of dont's I would like to leave the following disclaimer.  While I believe it happened and that the eye wittness accounts are reliable, I havn't seen irrefutable evidence that proves it actually happened.  I will say this however.  At ntcc we are expected to "abstain from the very appearence of evil".  We are also taught and preached to about how important our testimony is.  We do not go into bars because we don't want to damage our testimony.  What is the ntcc leadership thinking?  In most states this is called statutory rape and is punishable by a prison sentence.  This just shows the arrogance and the double standard that the leadership of ntcc lives by.  Did kekel and teenya have to go sit on the wall after asking permission to speak from rwd?  No?  Surely they were not allowed to be alone where they would be tempted to feel each other up?  But that is what happened.  Hmmn.   I'm sure, being the examples of beleiver's that they claim to be, that they would not do anything to bring shame on the work of God...  Would they?  But they did bring shame and refused to repent.  They probably did worse than all their peers who allegedly made the rules.  I'm sure they have always felt the rules do not apply to them.

Wow, I wonder what would happen if Christians were trusted to make their own decisions regarding dating and relationships.  What would happen if Christians were trusted to guard their own testimonies or to "work out your own salvation"?  I wonder if there would be more joy in the ntcc Christians' lives and if they would be more productive.

I've often heard preachers at ntcc say," I've never seen a Charismatic get saved.  I've never seen a person from a certain ethnic group get saved.  I've never seen a homosexual get saved."  I believe this may be true; they have never seen it; because they don't believe it will happen.  I believe that none of these have a chance in the ntcc; because they are so quickly run off.  How can they get saved if they are hated and run out of the church?  Is the blood of Christ not powerful enough to save a homosexual or a Charismatic or a Puerto Rican or any other group that's "hard to save"?  Maybe it's because ntcc has passed all of these groups off as reprobates; or maybe it's because they are not good tithers.  How can they repent if they are not brought to the foot of the Cross?

Next time you see an ntcc church flyer or T.V. ad, or hear an ntcc soul winner or pastor say that all are welcome, believe them.  They will shake your hand before and after church service.  They will not refuse your money.  But if you are looking for a church that will allow God to move in your life, you would be better served by going to an online e-church service where at least you don't have to worry about getting germs from a phony hand-shake.

Today's Subject: Get out while you can!!

NTCCer's,

As the NTCC machine gets older the parts are getting less oil and compromise is causing serious cogs in the working parts we would like to share the following warning:  "Get off this plane before it crashes"!!!  I love all of you NTCCers to death but can you slow down enough to see whats happening?  When is the last time you enjoyed your salvation?  Be honest about this.  Take a close look at what you are accomplishing when you dedicate every minute of your life to the so called "program of God".  How many souls do you win?  How many really stick around?  When you finally get someone saved, filled with the Holy Ghost and send them to NTCC bible school, what happens to them?  They are expected to live by bible school rules which don't have anything to do with the Bible.  If they are lucky they will be matched up for the rest of their lives with somebody that they have to ask permission to talk to.  If they are unlucky they will not be matched up but expected to live in celibacy.  If this isn't enough to make your oatmeal hit the wall, wait till they see the double standard that exists for the kekel kid and the rest of ntcc.  Here you have the NTCC ceo and his family driving around in their beemers, living in their mansion, sending young Grant to secular school, then expecting your new convert to eat ramen noodles for 3 years, while they are required to dress like a dork and adhere to rules like no fellowshipping with certain people without permission.  Is that of God?  Next time you are walking around in your wing tips and white shirts inviting people out to church, ask yourself the question, "Am I really doing a favour for this lost soul by inviting them to church"?  That poor lost soul might be best served by giving them a new testament and pointing them to the nearest chapel.  Do you NTCCer's know how many ex-ntcc pastors, missionaries and workers who have given decades of their lives to NTCC, sacrificed everything they ever had, lived in squalor and poverty without the ability to provide food, shelter and clothing for their own families were discarded and shunned from the ministry for daring to ask for help from the NTCC leadership?  They end up on the streets with nothing to show for decades of faithful service and the best years of their life gone forever.  Are you really winning souls to Christ?

Today's Topic: LOVE?

Of all the attributes of God there are none that surpass love. Love is an emotion that I have been experiencing in large quantities lately most of which I would classify as Agape love which is the love of God. The love that my new wife and I share was placed in our hearts by God; and although the NTCC likes to teach that love between man and wife is mostly carnal, I disagree. When we were separated by NTCC I felt great loss; and my walk with God suffered. When God brought us back together, I realized that God's Love was greater than all commandments. God's love trumps all of the do's and don'ts that the NTCC preaches but doesn't always practice. Does God still have requirements? Yes.

When Jesus walked the earth the focus wasn't on the do's and the don'ts but on Glorifying His Father in heaven, by helping the afflicted. The majority of His wrath was directed against the religious leaders of the time who went around preaching the do's and the don'ts. The rest of what Jesus did was surrounded by Love and were works of faith like healing the sick, raising the dead and feeding the multitudes, etc...

Jesus said, "If I be lifted up, I will draw all men to me". He didn't say if we invite 1000 people out to church every week, or wear white shirts and wing tips all the time, or pay our tithe and give in offerings, or live a holiness lifestyle, or rest on Sunday, or any other works doctrine that you preach. While there is a place for these things, they are not supposed to be the focus of the church.

NTCC has their priorities mixed up. There are so many true stories of missionaries and pastors of the NTCC that have struggled and suffered and done without and sacrificed to the point of not eating right and not being able to provide basic food, shelter and clothing for their families while the fat cats in Washington are living large and have every comfort and amenity imaginable. Is this love?

ntcc founder r w davis and 2nd wife verna

I talked to others from NTCC on the phone and through e-mail correspondence. Many say that speaking out against the NTCC is nonproductive and while they are willing to speak against the NTCC over the phone or in private, they seem very hesitant about getting involved with reading this blog or others like it. My stand is a whole lot different. NTCC is a Cult. They strain at a gnat and swallow a camel. They require way more out of their members then they themselves are willing to give. Hypocrisy does not get any more hypocritical than this.

These are the ones that Jesus preached against. The damage that they are causing in people's hearts and lives is unbelievable. There are many people in and out of NTCC that feel hopelessly lost and that there is no way out. They have been used, lied to, preached at, emotionally and spiritually abused, separated from loved ones including spouses and children. If a wife disagrees with the NTCC they are scolded publicly and scorned by the so called "man of God" and eventually ran off while the husband is praised for surviving the ordeal. But don't let your guard down because even though you have sacrificed your family, your turn to be kicked to the curb is coming. When you have been totally used up and can't pray or feel God any more and are at your lowest point in life, you will also be discarded. You have outlived your usefulness.

As for me and my house, we will preach love. It's too late for NTCC to tell me that they are the only true church; that they preach the only true Gospel; that any time you say anything against them you are blaspheming God's Church. I got set free after years of condemnation experienced from leaving the cult. God redeemed me and delivered me from all of the things that NTCC used to say you can and cannot do; but what is greater is that God placed his love in my heart; and it is a love that surpasses all understanding and transcends all outward works.

While my words may sound harsh, it is necessary because people are suffering needlessly in the NTCC. We are now in the information age; and even though this is considered the "sinnernet", somebody might see this and wake up. I'm not making fun of anyone; because I was once asleep and oblivious to the deception of NTCC. If you would take a close, close look at what they are doing, you would see something isn't right. I felt it while I was a member but refused to look at it. There IS life after NTCC. God has not forsaken you. Let God's love speak louder than man's preaching.

Doing The Right Thing

 A faithful man shall abound with blessings: 
 but he that maketh haste to be rich 
 shall not be innocent. 
 Prov 28:20 

 White Sand 
 Ocean Blue 
 Keeping True 

Today a woman returned a five dollar bill to us that was handed to her by accident.  She could have kept it and we would not have known.  This simple act of honesty bonded us and blessed all three of us as we thanked her and accepted our returned money.  She made each one of our days sweeter by simply 
Doing The Right Thing!

 There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God [is] faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear [it]. 
 1 Cor 10:13

Judging?

 For if we would judge ourselves, we should not be judged. 
 1 Cor 11:31 
when it comes to sin.....small or great....there's one fellow i can judge.....he lives in a small room with a window in it.....the window looks out above my bathroom sink...

If then ye have judgments of things pertaining to this life, set them to judge who are least esteemed in the church.

My Life And Times With NTCC: by Former U.S. Army Staff Sergeant Don

This is the first installment of Don's Story
Part 1)  Why I Left the ntcc:

The other installments are:
Part 2)   The Celibacy Policy:  What I Lost in the ntcc

Part 3)   Homosexual 'Pastors' in the ntcc: Names Included

Part 4)   Nichelle Tieman's Adultery and Lying: NOT_Overseer Material

Don Back In The Day
I joined the Army when I was 18 years old as an avionics mechanic.  I had my whole life ahead of me with a promising career, many friends, and abundant opportunities for advancement.

Little did I know that somebody was going to invite me out to "church" and ask me the famous question, "Where would your soul go if you were to die today???".

So I went to the New Testament Christian Church Servicemen's Home in Ft. Gordon, GA where I first heard ntcc-style preaching; and I began to conform to ntcc-style "Christianity".

At first, everything seemed really great:  Christianity was new to me; and my main focus in life was to serve the Lord.   But as time passed I realized that serving God the ntcc way was not as simple as the way I read in the Bible:  "That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved." [Rom. 10:9]

1/17th "AIR CAV!"
But as time drew on I found out that "serving God" not only required confession and belief; but it also required a willingness to surrender everything you have -- financially, emotionally, and physically, to the program of a man who often was not right with God himself. 

    Aircrew  Member  Wings    


 Jump Wings:   "Airborne!" 
While I believe there are people in ntcc that are doing what they know and many have good hearts, there are many who are trapped inside ntcc thinking they can't leave and remain saved; and there are many that have left that think they will never be able to get back to God unless they crawl back to ntcc and are accepted back.

I was with ntcc as a church member for 13 years and had 14 pastors most of which involved themselves in various forms of corruption that led to many lives being destroyed and people leaving ntcc thinking there was no hope outside of this "organization".  13/14

I was assimilated into the borg collective at a young age; and I was the perfect specimen for what seemed to be spiritual experimentation:  "Let's see how much we can put this guy through before he can't take it any more." 

 We are borg. 
 You will be assimilated. 
 . . . 
 Resistance is futile. 
 Your life as it has been is over. 
 From this time forward, you will service us. 
 . . . 

Borg Assimilation 51 second video link


While there are some that may read this that will say, "You are just bitter or are being used of satan to discredit the only true church in America", I have to say through experience I've seen things take place in ntcc that God had absolutely nothing to do with.   It's like at some point the ntcc leadership got together and said, "Where can we find loyal subjects that will follow orders without asking questions?"  The Armed Forces!

Isolation:
Let's examine how this is done.  First the subject is isolated from "the world" and required to move into the servicemen's home.  Now I know the immediate response to this is going to be, "Nobody is ever told they have to move into the servicemen's home".  In reality, those that move in are highly esteemed and praised for separating themselves from the world, while those who don't have this level of commitment are rebuked and humiliated for "loving the world more than God"; and everybody shouts "Amen!"  While living in the servicemen's home is presented to the soldier of the borg as a "privilege" and "a blessing" there is the matter of this pesky little piece of paper that must be signed.  It's just a little contract.  I think, if I remember correctly, it covers things that "everyone who loves the Lord would do anyway without complaining." 

More Constraints / Total Control of Your Time and Your Money:
Okay, so now that we are isolated from our families and the world, paying tithe and "home offerings", attending every church service, prayer meetings, bible studies, soul winning events and fellowship meetings and picking up people for church, and fellowshipping in addition to our personal prayer and study devotions, and being an example of the believer, Oh, I almost forgot, we are also serving in the Armed Forces and have to honor those commitments.  I remember times when First Sargents and others would scream at me at the top of their lungs and I would just have to chuckle within myself and think, "This guy is nothing compared to an ntcc Pastor".  The army was a cakewalk.  (See Figure One)

Cult Indoctrination / Brainwashing / Mind Control:   Obey "The Man of 'Gawd'!"
The real mind games would take place from behind the pulpit where the preacher would indoctrinate us.  From behind the pulpit we would hear God's word.  And also from behind the pulpit we would hear man's word.  Anything the preacher preached that was not in the bible was *claimed to be the word of God* and was expected to be followed as if it were the word of God just because it came across "the man of God's" pulpit.  So now not only were we giving all of our time and money to the church, we were also expected to follow rules that were not in the bible such as (1) all fellowship is mandatory so you must stay up even though you are exhausted (2) dating rules--not allowed to date unless the pastor approves of both parties in that relationship (3) socializing rules--not allowed to have friends outside of ntcc... (4) discouraged from all activities except church functions (5) encouraged to leave the military to go to bible school (6) encouraged to purposely fail certain military obligations in order to have more time for church... etc., etc., etc...,

*I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel: Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ. [Gal. 1:6-7]*
Systematic Breakdown of the Individual:  You Become Borg Property:
ntcc breaks down the Christian with so many rules that control all your time so that any non-church activity is discouraged including secular education, seeking job promotion, giving to any charities (homeless, Red Cross, other ministries [radio preachers-forbidden to listen to, much less support financially]...)  Everything you had was to go to ntcc:  all your time was to go to ntcc; all your money was to go to ntcc; if you had money for something other than ntcc, ntcc would make a rule to get more money out of you:  For example:  R. W. Davis told the Bible School students he was going to raise the tuition rates because he found [through his spy network] that some women had joined a gym.  How dare those women spend time and money somewhere other than with the ntcc?!?  All your time, money, and loyalty belongs to the ntcc.  In fact, YOU belong to the ntcc as chattel, as property.

Sin In The Holy Place Destroys A Personal Life Of Victory:
As an early Christian in ntcc I experienced some very dark times and witnessed pastors abusing their office and members of the church emotionally, physically, and sexually.  I saw lots of souls destroyed, people leaving the church thinking there was no hope for them outside of the ntcc.  Through all of this God kept me and began to use me to win souls to Christ.

In 1990, while stationed at Ft. Carson I was at the peak of my life for Christ.  I was on fire for God:  preaching, winning souls, praying, and studying God's word.

On numerous occasions a pastor's wife approached me, trying to seduce me and get me to engage in illicit sexual relations.  At first I welcomed the advances; because I had been living a restricted life of celibacy without even being allowed even normal dating relationships or any human contact outside of ntcc.  After being convicted by the Holy Ghost I began to refuse these sexual advances and avoided sexual intercourse with this woman.  I then repented by asking God's forgiveness.  At that point I called ntcc leadership, Pop Gaylord; and R. W. Davis came to investigate the matter.

During this visit the pastor's wife, in what I feel was an attempt to make herself look good and hide her sin, lied to R. W. Davis telling him that a new convert was interested in attending the ntcc Bible School.  I had invited this woman, a co-worker and fellow soldier, to the ntcc church services.  She gave her heart to the Lord; and we developed a close friendship.  If ntcc strict dating rules had not been in place, we would have continued a normal relationship and would have married in the early nineties.  But ntcc separated us saying this woman, Angela, was called to Bible School and could not marry me if I did not attend Bible School.  Though I wanted to go to the school, earlier events had stopped me from attending the Bible School.  It was a hopeless no-win situation.

After R. W. Davis' visit, the pastor and his wife were moved to a civilian work; but the damage to Angela and me had already been done.  We were needlessly and cruelly separated so someone could say, "Look who we sent to Bible School."

After Angela left Colorado Springs I was broken inside.  I still went through the motions performing all my ntcc obligations and Army duties; but I could not understand why God had withheld the desire of my heart.  Eventually my walk with God became drudgery--I was serving Him out of obligation without love; which is common amongst people broken by the ntcc.  In 1996 I left ntcc, God, and the Army all at the same time.  I went AWOL, spent time in jail, and lived a life of sin for 14 painful years.  I became an hundred times worse sinner than before I had been a Christian.

   Don  Alone     

A short time ago I received a letter from Angela.  I contacted her.  Up until this time I had felt it would be impossible for me to be saved outside of ntcc.  And even if I went  back to ntcc, they would not accept me.  Angela told me that if she still loved me after 20 years, how much more would God love me!


She also shared with me many scriptures of God's mercy and I asked myself the question:

"Is there any sin that I have committed that Jesus' blood could not wash away?"

Knowing the answer to that question, I had to pray and ask God to forgive me my sins.

I was afraid to pray.  I didn't know how to pray.  And I didn't even believe that God would answer my prayer.

But I prayed anyway and asked Jesus to forgive me.  God didn't tell me "Yes" or "No" but in my heart God told me to "Repent".  I then asked God to give me the strength to  overcome the many sins in my life and to remove the evil thoughts that were in my heart.  IMMEDIATELY I felt the presence of God in my life once again.  Up until this point I never thought I would ever be forgiven or have any chance of God saving me outside of ntcc.

Not only did God save me; but He answered my prayers and gave me strength to quit smoking, cursing, drinking, lusting, and every other sin I was involved in.
  Contentment!  

The most precious thing that God has done for me is giving me the desire of my heart that was lost 20 years prior.  On the ninth of August, 2010, I married Angela; and we have committed our lives to God.

The purpose of this blog is to help people that are trapped in ntcc to realize that they CAN BE SAVED OUTSIDE OF ntcc and to help those that have left ntcc to realize there are people that are here to help them get back to God.
