This Church Made Me Want To KILL MYSELF! ~ Suicide and the NTCC

We started working on this post on Memorial Day.  It's a sad but common theme that we often hear from folks who contact us to tell us about their NTCC eXperience.  So this article has been percolating for a long time; and we want you to know some things:

YOU'RE NOT ALONE!  We can't tell you the number of people who have contacted us and confessed this very same thing!  NTCC has that effect on people!  They really want to kill themselves.  Some have died.  Others have taken their families with them.  Still others have 'tried' suicide and been spared to tell their tale.

IT'S NOT YOUR FAULT!  NTCC has been raping souls for 43+ years.  Their 'leaders' have established a system of abuse that includes the preconditioning or thought training to get you to blame yourself for their sinful acts against you.  Don't fall for that garbage.  They are guilty, not you.

THEY PLANNED IT!  They saw your love for God or your human need for love and knew they could exploit that.  They used what was good and innocent in you as a weapon against you, not caring what effect that would have in your life.

THEY COVERED THEIR SIN!  They already had a system of loyal followers who would lie for them and cover their sin for them.  When you tried to report the abuse taking place, these sycophantic suck-ups were all primed and ready to feed you the company li(n)e:  You need to find another church.  I can't receive that.  File a signed report in triplicate.  Did anyone else see that?  [Good we will run them off too...]

THEY BLAMED YOU FOR THEIR SIN!
They seduced you. They touched you inappropriately. They twisted scripture to justify their sin, saying,  Unto the pure all things [are] pure: ... [Titus 1:15 (p)]

But it was THEIR lust that drove them to sin.

But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed.
James 1:14

And when they were done, they did not care that death would follow.

Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death.
James 1:15

NTCC A DESTRUCTIVE CULT!

Even if they didn't physically abuse you, they are still set up to tear you down and make you completely dependent on their system.  When you can no longer stand their legalism and leave, they have you trained to think everything was your fault.

BUT IT'S NOT YOUR FAULT!

God never intended us to live under the law!  That's why Jesus came.  To usher in THE NEW TESTAMENT.  A testament of GRACE AND MERCY.  You don't have to keep the man-made rules of the cult leaders.  They are adding to the Word of God; which is forbidden by God.  Don't worry about what the NTCC 'leaders' think!  They are hypocrites who say one thing, but do another:

  • Davis preaches adultery is sin; but Davis is an adulterer.
  • Kekel used to preach wearing shorts was a sin; but Kekel encouraged his son Grant to wear shorts to play Football and Basketball in his private school.
  • Olson says lying is a sin; but Olson lied to the foreign governments where NTCC ministers are missionaries, sending out "Letters of Support" but never supporting the missionaries.
  • Phil Kinson preaches against fornication; but Feel-Good-Phil hooked up with a hooker in Okinawa.

YOU DON'T HAVE TO ANSWER TO THESE HYPOCRITES FOR ANYTHING!

Just know this:

 ... He hath made us
 accepted in the beloved
 Ephesians 1:6 (p) 
GOD LOVES YOU!

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
John 3:16

For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.
John 3:17

GOD PAID THE FULL PRICE!

He shall see of the travail of his soul, [and] shall be satisfied: by his knowledge shall my righteous servant justify many; for he shall bear their iniquities.
Isaiah 53:11

FOR EVERY SIN YOU EVER DID!

For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;
Romans 3:23

PAST, PRESENT, FUTURE
GOD CAN KEEP YOU
YOU MATTER TO HIM!!!

For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed.
Romans 10:11

DON'T WORRY.  GOD'S GOT YOU COVERED!
 Rejoice in the Lord alway:
  [and] again I say, Rejoice.
 Philippians 4:4

If you're thinking of suicide, Don't do it. We love you. Get help. There are suicide hotlines and professional counselors who really care about you. Or just tell somebody. If they don't listen, care or help, tell somebody else.

DON'T tell a ntcc pastor! kekel told one man to "go ahead" and kill himself! mike kekel is a sicko! Don't waste your time with them.

But really, there are plenty of people who WILL listen and help.

God created you for a special purpose. He can help you through this. He may use that one person you talk to and at the same time do something great in their life. Don't hurt yourself. Don't try to face it alone. God loves you.

Good Post!!!!!!! Mark

Thanks Mark. We wish we didn't need to do this post. One would think that of all the places in the world a person could find help in a Christian church. Unfortunately people are hurt by ntcc, not helped.

God is love. But the ntcc 'leaders' do not demonstrate the love of God.

They have misrepresented Him. That's a very serious fault.

I'm speechless, but you have hit the nail.

I'm not sure if there's more women than men who have had the thought of just not having no desire of living because of what some doctrine have described of what a true successful christian should be.
All this talk about being successful in Christ and making it happen and the positive thinking sometimes doesn't work.
You can talk positive all you want but if you can't jump like michael jordan, you will never be a micheal jordon and that is where we get into trouble, when we want to be like somebody else. How many times we heard it: so and so is makin it happen and so can you!
You keep on measuring up to them and it gets frustrating.
Everybody is made different, there's many parts to a body and each one of those parts has a job to do. We can't be all the head or the brains.

No wonder people have to be on meds, because they are made to believe that they are failures, because they couldn't pastor a church or something like that.
So sad.

Don and Ange said...

Anonymous, You made some excellent points.

You said, "Everybody is made different, there's many parts to a body and each one of those parts has a job to do."

That is exactly correct. davis always taught by word and action that being a pastor was the end-all and be-all "greatest job". Well, what if God hasn't called a person to Pastor? In davis' doctrine that man will always be put down and set down as a failure. But just like the rest of davis' doctrine, that is a BIG LIE.

The bible says,

But now hath God set the members every one of them in the body, as it hath pleased him. 1 Corinthians 12:18

and

That there should be no schism in the body; but [that] the members should have the same care one for another. 1 Corinthians 12:25

But davis and the ntcc 'leaders' cause a schism in the body of Christ over and over again with their false doctrines.

Look at nature. God gave one seed, an acorn, to become an oak tree, another seed, a pine cone, to become a pine tree. Both are trees. Both are useful and beautiful.

But davis is too deceived or deceitful to acknowledge even the most simple lesson from nature.

He is puffed up in pride that says "I AM" the man! WORSHIP ME! Unless you are a pastor, according to my definition, you are nothing! "I AM" Sir Oracle. If you don't like it, there's the door!

davis is a nut. That brings us to another good point you made.

to be continued.

So sad."

What's even more sad, is that after the deceitful devilish davis doctrine discourages these sincere hearted people, davis dumps on them some more. davis says the only reason a person has a mental illness is because of sin. By this davis is implying that the victim has sinned.

We say it is (a) not a sin of the victim. Why should mental illness be any different from physical illness? If davis or kekel is sick, you know they will go to a Doctor or take whatever medicine they need to feel better.

Why should it be any different for someone else?

We say if there is any sin causing mental illness, it is the sin of the devilish davis doctrines that steer people away from God and rob them of the joy of serving God in Spirit and in Truth!

More to come.

Someone said tanya davis kekel was taking antidepressants. They said that was why she put on so much weight; and that mike kekel put on some 'sympathy' pounds too.

I believe that testimony. I saw the picture that someone had taken from a facebook page and circulated around the blogs. It showed tanya with her extra baggage.

I wondered what mike kekel thought then of all the times he stood in the pulpit jeering and mocking other people, proudly proclaiming "No fat chics" for him.

I also wondered how rodger felt about HIS daughter taking anti-depressants after all of his years of teaching the false doctrine that people were in mental hospitals because of sin. So tell us, rodger, what was the sin that cause YOUR daughter to need anti-depressants?

And going back to mike, since he vowed "NO FAT CHICS" for him; did he cheat on tanya to satisfy his lust and keep his skinny vow?

You have to wonder, with all the other sexual improprieties in ntcc, like davis feeling-up young married women whose husbands work for him; and phil kinson going to the brothel in Okinawa.

It really makes me believe that tanya was on anti depressants. And since davis like to teach it was sin that causes mental illness, maybe those were the sins.

Of course, davis always wanted you to blame yourself. This davis doctrine made it a taboo to get any help. How many suffered needlessly on account of davis flapping his gums?

If rodger or verna, tanya or mikey were in pain, they'd be all over that medicine cabinet. But for others, the borg wants them to suffer.

What a bunch of double standard hypocrites.

DnA say, BINGO!

Those expectations that davis and the borg put on people are false doctrine that contradict the Word of God.

And all the 'positive thinking' junk is taught because davis is so far from God, that's all he can teach is man's wisdom.

davis has cast God behind his back. And the org is a reflection of that.

The campground is no longer 'holy ground'; it's a resort with a 'curator'. The Holy Spirit has been replaced by the 'ambiance' and the Fire of God exchanged for a 'fire pit'. Before davis derided sports because "people are dying and going to hell"; but now for campmeeting everyone is encouraged to bring their footballs and frisbees.

And as a sad and pitiful after thought to sear their conscience by acknowledging they know what they should be doing, the borg declares, "oh yeah, and we'll have church too". Yeah, after everything else, right? God is last place on their list.

But that doesn't stop them from trying to pitchfork their condemnation onto you. They are the scribes, Pharisees, and hypocrites who bind heavy burdens but won't move a finger to lift them.

They want you to constantly prove yourself; and they misrepresent God as if He is the one requiring this nonsense. But it's not His doctrine. He said He would give us rest.

We can never earn our position. It is a gift from God based solely on the finished work of the cross. We are accepted in the beloved.

But davis strips people of that, constantly belittling them. He is
the thief described in the scripture:

The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: [John 10:10]

That is exactly who davis is and exactly what davis does. He has a forked tongue and talks out of both sides of his mouth. He tells you to your face "I love you. I appreciate you." But when you aren't there he describes you as "a strong back with a weak mind". He just sees you as a wallet to exploit and discard when you have no more money to offer and no longer bring other souls to him for him to exploit. You are disposable to davis.

Thankfully God is nothing like davis. Instead God IS love.

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. [John 3:16]

For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. [John 3:17]

I am come that they might have life, and that they might have [it] more abundantly. [John 10:10]

I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep. [John 10:11]


These passages of scripture clearly show the sacrifice God was willing to make in order for us to LIVE.

Don't let that devil davis or that kook kekel strip you of what God has done for you or of what God has given you.

LIVE.

For in him we live, and move, and have our being; [Acts 17:28]

Keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life. [Jude 1:21]


Don't fret over the ntcc's kooky CULTure and false expectations. Just rest in the finished work of the cross and enjoy the life that Jesus has purchased for you with His precious blood.
