- Does the NTCC purchase vehicles for Board Members?
- If not, where did the money come from?
- If so, then what happens when the vehicle is replaced?
- Who gets the cash when these vehicles are later sold?
- What is the purpose of this excessive expenditure?

If NTCC buys the Cadilllacs for Davis, who gets the money when Davis sells that Cadillac so the NTCC can buy him another new one?
Remember, Davis boasts that he buys a new Cadillac each year or when the odometer reaches 50,000 miles, whichever comes first! He's been doing so, he said, since he returned his Cadillac to the dealer; because he was not making the payments on it. Let's assume that happened when he started NTCG in 1969. This is 2012. That's at least 43 Cadillacs (1 per year) or more (if he drove more than 50k mi; which he probably often did (as much as he travelled). So, being conservative, we estimate 50 Cadillacs to support Pimp-Davis' Cadillac Habit. WOW!!!!

And then, if he turned around and sold each of those to somebody, he's turning a profit if he keeps that cash for himself.
Hmm. What do the records show? We don't know, do we?
BECAUSE NTCC HAS ZERO FINANCIAL TRANSPARENCY!
WHAT ARE THEY HIDING?????

They don't drive Cadillacs anymore in Graham but BMW's. Also, Davis doesn't like to drive cross country anymore because of his night blindness and how physically exhausted he gets from the road trip. He would rather have a church pay for his first class airfare and to put him up in a hotel for the time that he is at their church and within the area. Many times he'll have the pastor of the local church drive him and his wife around or to the other churches. So take into account how much more a BMW is and how he also likes to drive in a Suburban. Then also take into account the $200000+ RVs that he and others have and you can see that money is spent frivously on these luxury and gas guzzling vehicles.

That's the point. All the while the average family and minister in the ntcc live below the poverty level. The man works day and night, his family sacrifices wearing second hand clothes and shopping at the 'scratch and dent' canned goods grocery store. While davis, kekel and their ilk flaunt unbelievable wealth all acquired while running a so-called non-profit. It stinks of corruption and not Christianity!
Reading over some comments on old threads on Chief's blog, I stumbled upon this comment by Gregory, a former NTCC Regional Overseer, that answers some questions about distribution of wealth in the NTCC:
DS or GS said...
MDR said..."overseers make $650 per week"
Granting this, they also get the offering (cash) at every church they visit (up to $500/week), free food and free lodging (to them) once they get to most churches, and other offerings (perks) in the form of suits, gasoline, etc.
According to the most recent available bylaws they also get a gas card, vehicle (if they want it, and if approved), and 30 days of paid vacation per year. The bylaws additionally state “At the expiration of his term of office, he shall accept the title of the car along with all financial obligations.”
When they are on the road, they still have to pay rent/mortgage (maybe), but the utilities will be minimal, out of pocket food expense will be minimal, no internet, cable bill, etc.
If no federal taxes are being paid on their income, you have to add about 30% to its real value.
Addition math problem:
$2600 per month overseer salary.
$1000 (or more) per month offerings from churches they visit.
$1080 per month savings on taxes.
$500 per month savings on utilities, food, internet, cable.
Added together this yields a ‘real’ value of $5180. Not too shabby.
But, one also may want to consider the financial benefit of not having to regularly quit jobs, pay to get to bi-annual conferences, and move every couple of years.
Plus, this doesn’t factor in any ‘cut’ they may get from conferences, the church in Graham, special ‘bonuses’ from HQ, private offerings from the church members of churches they visit (you know, slip the man of God an envelope with money in it), etc.
So we may be talking upwards of $6,000 per month tax free.
Did I miss anything?

We think that just about covers it all!
"30 days of paid vacation per year"!?!
They get 30 days paid vacation per year from what?!! From their vacationing by driving around the country in a paid for recreational vehicle, using a church issued gas card and making stops to take the cash offerings of up to $500 smackeroos per stop from the local churches!?!
YOU GOTTA BE KIDDING ME!
“At the expiration of his term of office, he shall accept the title of the car ..."
Wow! Wish someone would walk up to me and give me a brand new car!
"When they are on the road, they still have to pay rent/mortgage (maybe)"
I'd say it's the other way around. Many of the Board Members own houses on the campus = compound [and/or in St. Louis and/or in Arizona etc.] that they rent out (cash only, no food stamps or checks) to bible college students and staff members or ministers while they vacation in the NTCC purchased recreational vehicles, with nobody knowing where they or where all that cash goes!
**Poof! Presto Magico, You Can't Follow The Cash Flow**
For all you know, they could be making trips to Vegas, Baby!
They could be touring the Grand Canyon on your dime, literally "cashing in" on that 30 days paid vacation!
HOLY MACARONI, folks, is that really what your Missions' Pledges' Money has been paying for????
UNBELIEVABLE!
No wonder they drive around saying,
"What a blessing!" *gush*gush*
Sure. Who wouldn't want an all-expense paid vacation across America in a Recreational Vehicle while the cash flows in with no paper trail to convict you!?! [Ahem]
I just can't believe how utterly gullible we were to fund these selfish lifestyles for the Board Members while that sister in the Philippines was going without food!!!! And missionaries in Puerto Rico struggled without food for their families. And the Mackerts in the Philippines had to live in a 9' x14' room with a hole in the floor for a toilet (which was an upgrade from their last residence where they had to share the facilities with other residents).
People, God did not intend your sacrifice to fund the lifestyles of the rich and selfish Board Members!
Be responsible stewards and demand to know where those dollars go and who is really benefiting. From all accounts none of the money donated to NTCC Missions Pledges has gone to alleviate the suffering of the indigenous populace, as you were led to believe it would. And none of the money goes to financially support the missionaries themselves, as they were led to believe. That means those monies were collected illegally under false pretenses. The NTCC should have to pay back those misappropriated funds to the donors or the intended recipients!
