Open thy mouth for the dumb in the cause of all such as are appointed to destruction.
Open thy mouth, judge righteously, and plead the cause of the poor and needy.
Prov. 31:8-9
We know that today, in America, the word "dumb" means "stupid"; but that is not the original meaning of this word. As it is used in this verse, the word "dumb" means "mute", unable to speak.
Warren Barfield's "The Time is Now" from the soundtrack of the Movie "Unstoppable" starring Kirk Cameron.
We haven't seen the movie yet but we watched this video and liked the song enough to make it the X-er theme song.
ReplyDeleteWe feel that the lyrics of this song depict how we all just went along with the ntcc abuse until we reached a point in time when we realized that it was just plain wrong. We tip toed around trying not to rock the boat. We wouldn't speak unless we were spoken to. We seen some things that a man just can't ignore. Now we don't hold back. We want everyone to know that the ntcc is a dangerous cult that they misuse the Gospel of Christ to obtain wealth and in the process good people are hurt. We did not have a voice when we were members of this cult but they can't shut our mouths any longer. As the song writer so perfectly declares, "There is a time to speak and the time is now"!
We've all heard it preached what we should and should not do, while we watched those who pointed out our failures and condemned us commit worse offenses.
We know that there are many people who hold much of what they went through inside. We also realize that much of what they have endured is deeply personal. While we blog about it all, others are enduring the same abuse. As for us, we feel the same way as the song writter feels. You can't buy my silence, you can't steal my voice, you can't keep me quiet, I will bring the noise! Try to beat me down, tell me to shut my mouth there is time to speak and the time is now!
It's time to follow Christ and ditch the cult!
We also included the song "Overcomer" by Mandisa, which is also off of the Soundtrack of the new Movie "Unstoppable". The official youtube video is a tribute song to cancer victims and a song of encouragement that shows examples of Overcomers that fought cancer and won.
ReplyDeleteI'm sure that this kind of video would be criticized by the borg leaders, because many of the women who have overcome cancer have lost their hair and chose not to wear wigs like many of the aging borg members wives to include Verna Davis who likes to put on a facade as if wearing a wig actually pleases God.
There have been recent deaths in the ntcc due to cancer and I'm sure that there are Xer's that have or will get cancer. There really is not much hope for folks in the ntcc as far as healing goes, and if a person passes away from cancer in the ntcc, it usually is their fault for not having enough faith.
Cancer or any type of death can happen to anyone, including me, and we take no pleasure in the death of those ntcc'rs which we once held in such high esteem, but there is hope for everyone. It seems like the ntcc preaches healing in a way that leaves a person with no hope if they are not healed by God when the so called man of God prays for them. Many people that overcome cancer find hope from others that have overcome. In the ntcc this is frowned upon.
I remember times when I was prayed for and others also for healing and the healing was not instant. Preachers in the ntcc would say things like "It is your lack of faith that prevents God from healing you". What about their lack of faith? When something is wrong in an ntcc church you very seldom see the Pastor of that church taking the blame, but it is always the fault of someone else. It's always someone else's lack of faith. It's always someone else's sin that is keeping God from "blessing" the church.
Well, as usual, our blog post has progressed from one phase to another. As a result, we have added a few things and even re-titled it. This blog, like our lives, is a work in progress. It's not perfect. And it may never be "complete". But we continue to press toward the mark. :o)

Eze 34:2
ReplyDelete"Son of man, prophesy against the shepherds of Israel, prophesy, and say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD unto the shepherds; Woe be to the shepherds of Israel that do feed themselves! should not the shepherds feed the flocks?"
The shepherds of Israel seemed to resemble the ntcc shepherds if you dare call them shepherds. The ntcc hirelings feed themselves until they are fat and lazy, while the flock is struggles and starves. We find no record of any of the New Testament Apostles or Shepherds collecting tithes and accumulating wealth. This is another scripture among thousands that the ntcc leadership disregards and tears it out of the bible. Open your eyes ntcc'rs and stop being deceived.
Eze 34:3
"Ye eat the fat, and ye clothe you with the wool, ye kill them that are fed: but ye feed not the flock."
You live off of the fat, and you enjoy the profits, you clothe yourself with wool or all of the tapestries that your tithe payers adorn you with. Those that are saved; you suck the life out of them but you don't feed the rest of your starving flock. They all follow you just like sheep without questioning you and you have their unwavering loyalty, but instead of rewarding them with hope and strength, you absorb all of their energy, finances and any good thing they give you, while you sit back on your lazy rumps. Meanwhile your flocks are starving and diseased. The communities that you are living in are spiritually depraved and all you care about is adding more tithe payers to support your lavish lifestyles.
Eze 34:4
ReplyDelete"The diseased have ye not strengthened, neither have ye healed that which was sick, neither have ye bound up that which was broken, neither have ye brought again that which was driven away, neither have ye sought that which was lost; but with force and with cruelty have ye ruled them."
Boy, if this doesn't spell it out plainly. When is the last time you have seen your tithe receiving hireling reach out to the sick and diseased? I'm sure Davis would say that you can't build a church with the terminally ill.
When is the last time they have healed the sick. Many of their own are physically dying after living for years without healthcare or insurance because of the financial demands and monetary strain that is unnecessarily placed on families. The women are not allowed to work and the men have to take jobs that suit the ntcc leadership service and conference schedules leaving the tithe paying flock members to be fleeced, without the means to provide for their own.
You drive your own flock away from you and you leave them out in the world high and dry. Once you drive them off you want nothing to do with them forever. You even tell your followers to "leave them alone" and jack them up if they try to befriend them. The broken, you have not bound up but you leave those you have wounded to fester and suffer. You have left a wake of broken hearted souls, and in your arrogance and pride you will ignore their suffering until the day they die or you die.
You don't seek after the lost; only those who you can influence to become tithe paying contributors of your own selfish cause. You are not a Shepherd to those who follow you, but you rule them with force and cruelty. You invent rules for them to follow while you ignore the most basic rules of God, like loving others, and showing grace and mercy. You force people into subjection with fear, manipulation and you humiliate them openly to keep them giving so you can disregard all of your own rules and live high on the hog off of those whom you are not worthy of. You rule over them for your own greedy purposes and you extinguish every ounce of their individuality.
I thank God that he loves us still, while you have forgotten us. God binds up the broken bones and renews our strength, heals the diseased and goes after the lost. God is our comfort, we will not be afraid of the ntcc hirelings.
Eze 34:5
ReplyDelete"And they were scattered, because there is no shepherd: and they became meat to all the beasts of the field, when they were scattered."
Eze 34:6
"My sheep wandered through all the mountains, and upon every high hill: yea, my flock was scattered upon all the face of the earth, and none did search or seek after them."
God has a message for you ntcc hirelings that scatter the sheep and do not search or seek after them. You see, many of us have been scattered throughout the earth and left to suffer. I am not prophesying to you, all I'm doing is relaying the message of Ezekiel to you. It's all right here in black and white. You believe the bible, don't you?
Eze 34:7
"Therefore, ye shepherds, hear the word of the LORD;"
Eze 34:8
"As I live, saith the Lord GOD, surely because my flock became a prey, and my flock became meat to every beast of the field, because there was no shepherd, neither did my shepherds search for my flock, but the shepherds fed themselves, and fed not my flock;"
Eze 34:9
"Therefore, O ye shepherds, hear the word of the LORD;"
Eze 34:10
"Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I am against the shepherds; and I will require my flock at their hand, and cause them to cease from feeding the flock; neither shall the shepherds feed themselves any more; for I will deliver my flock from their mouth, that they may not be meat for them."
OUCH!!!!! Boy I would hate to be an ntcc hireling that masquerades as a shepherd after reading these scriptures. You'd have to sear your conscience with a hot iron and tear these warnings out of the bible just to live with yourself.
Eze 34:16
"I will seek that which was lost, and bring again that which was driven away, and will bind up that which was broken, and will strengthen that which was sick: but I will destroy the fat and the strong; I will feed them with judgment."
What commentary could I possibly contribute to help make this any more plain than God has made it? It's up to you ntcc'rs to rightly divide the word of truth and find your way out of this rat maze that you are in. If you are reading this, it's for a reason. You know something is wrong but you are afraid to leave. Stop paying for their mansions and recreational vehicles and wise up. Escape for your lives and begin to think for yourselves. God will not forsake you like the ntcc hirelings will.
speaking of healthcare
ReplyDeletethose of you who were prior military and got out on an honorable can use the VA for healthcare.
You need not have to have retired or have a disability.
as long as you were in, you can use the VA
Obamacare is just going to cost you more money than you don't already have due to giving your money to kekel, davis,kinson and who ever else.
so go get signed up and save yourself some money.
