John St. Clair Verifies His Sister Julie [St. Clair] Ridgeway Was Abused by Family, Strangers, and NTCC Church Officials For Years!

This comment, allegedly from John St. Clair, Julie [St. Clair] Ridgeway's brother, came in overnight.  It is disturbing. We ask that you do not retaliate or act against this man who has verified what Julie has been sharing, it may be that the D.A. and A.G. will want to talk to him.  He clearly is in need of prayer.

 HOW IT SHOULD BE: 

 SHE AIN'T HEAVY, 

 SHE'S MY SISTER! 

John said...

Don and Ange you show that you have never had to live with the humiliation of having a family member going public with such disgusting news. I don't believe anything wicked should ever be in the news the same as I believe this type of stuff should be discussed with a counselor or a professional not among the public or every day people. I am not going to tell you my problems you are not a counselor. My sister is wrong on every level in speaking to you or the public.

Ange you don't have a degree this making my sister a gossiper and talebearer. Yes she suffered at the hands of Davis but he is dead. Yes someone broke into our house wanting to rape her. Yes my father did stuff to her. Yes Ashmore was messing with her but I don't have knowledge how far that went with him. Yes church members did stuff to her at a number different churches. Yes Donny abused her I saw some of it. Yes Wayne Eury and Angela Eury in San Antonio abused her. They were mean she didn't ask for that. Yes Di Francescio abused her. Yes Olson abused her and so did many more abused her.

A few things that bother me. One she didn't tell all details that makes me question some of the details. Two she opened herself to the abuse. Three she is wrong going public; these people aren't abusing her now. Four why would you volunteer to be her sister and brother believe me it is no picnic. She has nothing to offer no one. She is so unintelligent and hard to understand or follow her train of thought. Spend a week with her in your home and you will want her out of your life for good. When we were growing up I use to think she was the okay but not having much friends I didn't see how annoying she can be for real. When you have to have her repeat her words or ask what she is trying to say in an email or explain every little thing it gets tiring. I have reached a point where I want to be with my kind and people of my intelligence not her low level of life. Do you know she doesn't have a career or job? Just because she volunteers over a 80 hours a month and wants to help the world that doesn't make her a successful person. If you really desire to claim her I think you are some strange people. As for me I am glad to release myself from the burden of having to be her family. Disabled people are such a waste and with everything that has happened to her she will always have scars that are burdensome to others for life.

 Johnny and Julie St. Clair Children
 Whose Innocence Was Stolen Away
 Do you still doubt Julie's existence?
 Since Joan St. Clair lied about even
 having a daughter, can you now see
 Joan St.Clair lied?  Do not trust her.

I request that you walk away from her and stop letting her speak about her past of sexual abuse. I am not deny the stuff happened she just has no right to speak to you about it. I wonder if you secretly hate her for talking; just don't have the guts to tell her to shut up. Remember you aren't in NTCC you have the right to tell her to close her mouth. She is causing more people to tell you their woes. OMG!! who needs or wants to know what happened to others I sure don't want or need to know. Are you that lost in life?

I wish you the best. Enjoy life and your marriage instead. Don't miss out on the moments. I have been married 20 plus years and don't want to miss any moments worrying about others especially burdensome disabled people they aren't worth anyone's time.

Don and Ange say,

John, thank you for verifying that Julie was abused. Your statements accurately portray everything Julie has shared about both her 'home life' and suffering from strangers and 'church' leaders.  We hope you can pray and ask God to forgive you for not doing more to help Julie.  We know you were taught wrong as a child; but now that you are a man it is time to put away childish things and false doctrine.  We hope you can obtain not only forgiveness from God, Who gives it willingly, and forgiveness from Julie, who gives it willingly; but also that you will be able to forgive yourself.  We will all be praying for you.

Julie, I know what you have shared has not been easy. I know it is difficult to share personal details of such things. What you went through was so horrific and you were completely undeserving of any of this. You have been brave, honest and you are very intelligent. Don't let anyone ever tell you otherwise. You are speaking for so many people not just in this perverted organization but in many cults around the world. So many people keep this stuff inside for their entire lives and never find peace or healing. You are strong and you are doing what is necessary to keep this from happening again. You can only do so much but you have brought awareness to what has been hidden inside of the ntcc for many years. You were a victim, a child raised by very perverted parents, that used you for their own gratification and passed you around to others as if you were an object created for their pleasure. Nobody in the world deserves to grow up like that. You have been extremely brave to share your testimony publicly. 

For those of you out there that think that she should not go public with this information, why would you want this information to be squelched?  Keeping quiet about this type of sexually deviant behavior is equivalent to ignoring it and allowing it to continue.

May God have mercy on your souls.

Tanya Davis Kekel: Who's Your Daddy? A Birthday Post For Rodger Wilson Davis (R-dub)

Shared by Julie:

Back when I was a child as I was over at the Davis’ house with my mother. My mother was doing sewing for them. As usually I was sitting waiting for the world to pass by since I had to sit in silence. My mother and Verna were talking. I am not sure what started the conversation but they were talking about Tanya.

My mother asked if Verna had ever met the mother. Verna said, “Yes” ….the continued talking. It was spoke how that she was there when Tanya was born. Then something was brought up why Verna chose Tanya. She said God brought Tanya to her. Verna spoke how she was very sick in the Philippines and was unable to have a baby. She spoke how Davis was struggling like all men do when their wives are unable to be to them as God would have them to be in marriage.

That God used a bad situation to give her the desire of her heart. Verna said she was upset about the existence of Tanya first until God showed her that Tanya was a gift from Him. Tanya when she first went to visit the Philippines found out more about her past then Davis would have her know.

This has given her a lot of leverage in this situation. He can run from adultery but this is too much proof of his sin so she holds it over him. It is why Kekel feels confident in throwing him under the bus because he knows what he knows. It is why Kekel can change rules without fight. It is why Tanya can’t be considered a sinner and she gets her way. She grew up spoiled but then she found something that helped her get her way in life. Now we have Grant. Grant had freedom other children didn’t have the privilege to experience. They didn’t feel they needed to consider him a sinner until he went away to college not being faithful to NTCC services. They use this to say they understand what other parents go through when they children leave Church “God”. They do this because they have seen parents leave at times after their children choose to leave. If they can show false understanding they will add to the blindness in people. They use phrases like “You know how young people can be, sometimes it takes them time to choose to do right before God”. Getting the parents to think that their children are just rebelling against God.

Something to understand about NTCC and why they change the rules. As people get out, with the internet it is hard to hide the sin that has been burdened. It is like a person giving a child a cookie to shut up. They realize people may find out their sin so they feel the need to hand out cookies. A cookie for them comes in the form of now babies are okay, now jewelry is okay, now sports is okay, now computers are okay, now movies are okay, and so on. It is like they are saying if we give cookies no one will pay attention to the spiders crawling near the plate of cookies but the cookies aren’t keeping everyone’s attention. There are some that are now seeing the spiders near the cookies. Everything they do is to hide their sin as they take people’s money. They are willing to do anything even if it means pretending to see that there is nothing wrong with some things.

Davis has always hated children. His sin brought a child; he didn’t want but the only way to hide was to lie about how it came into being. He would have never had a child without his sin. What his sin produced only made him hate children that much more. He protects people that know his sin. This is why some sin is swept under the rug and others are put to shame.

From the Archives of True Stories of Life in the NTCC:

Don and Angie said: His adopted daughter's Filipina ancestry is his ticket to owning land in the Philippine Islands...

Shared by MDR:

In the last conference we attended in the PI in '09, we were all sitting around the fellowship table at the missionary quarters one evening. RWD was discussing how the laws had changed in the PI and foreigners could now purchase property. Well, RWD shared how it didn't matter to him anyway about the laws changing because he could get land through other connections.

That's when I piped up and said, that's right, sir, you don't need anybody because you have Tanya, she's a Filipina. He looked over at me and gave me the scum of the earth look and said, "She's not Filipina". Need I say, you could hear a pin drop in that room. I think Tom Wright wet his pants when I said that. John Rodrigues turned beet red. My wife, unable to breathe at that moment, practically passed out on the couch. The rest of the brethren just looked at RWD as if to say, your move. I said, really, sir? I thought she was.

Maybe that's when RWD started to hate me! Nah, he hated me long before that.

Little did RWD know that in '03, we had met Lowena Montilla's brother out soulwinning one afternoon, he asked us if we were with the Ntcc/Pastor Davis group. The very next thing out of his mouth was a question, do you know Tanya? His wife then chimed in and said "You know she's one of ours, don't you?" When RWD said "she's not Filipina", my thought was, why the big cover up? What's the big whoopty deal?

I personally have always thought that this was a non-issue, but it evidently is a big issue. Hey Michael, I guess you need some tissues for that big issue, don't you?

You would have really needed some tissues, Michael, if I would have seen you get up in my wife's face unprovoked back in January when you glared at her and said, "what are you looking at?" I don't even talk to her like that. I was meeting with your father-in-law at that time, and your own wife saw it and called you paranoid and laughed at you as you blushed. My wife just thought you were plain weird. You seem really stressed out these days. Maybe it's time to see a doctor. And besides all that, Michael, didn't you tell a BS class that God had convicted you of that conduct and that you weren't gonna do that to people any more? Huh?

It's kind of like RWD bragging about his 2 PhD's. Not just one, he said, "I've got 2 of 'em". This was never an issue with me until he made it an issue. If you're going to brag about something like your credentials, then back it up with the university of study and the degrees on paper. When Paul boasted of his accomplishments, he could back them up. The Jews knew he had the credentials. In II Cor. 12:11 Paul was compelled... evidently RWD was compelled to boast too, so let's see the proof. He made it an issue, not me.

No, we're not bitter. We just got tired of being treated like trash. That's all.

Seeking Their Own Wealth - One Lie at a Time

Scripture of the day:

1 Cor 10:24

"Let no man seek his own, but every man another's [wealth]."

Boy, Davis and Kekel really took that one to the bank, didn't they?  Not that they care for your welfare, but are seeking to take your wealth from you and put it into their bank accounts.  As they like to quote, "A fool and his money are soon parted."  Then they laugh at your poverty, calling you "Strong backs with weak minds."  You do their work for them, and pay them to get treated like a chump or a lump of something from the poo pond!

Davis once wrote in the Trumpet Vol. 1 - Sept. 95:

Seldom do I ever use the expression "I can't." You may hear me use it when people are trying to get money out of me. Generally, when I do say the phrase "I can't," I immediately amend it to "I won't."

And seriously, who has ever been so foolish as to try and "get money out of" davis?  You'd have better luck trying to pry a dusty mite out of Ebenezer Scrooge's wallet!

But getting back to davis' statement "I can't" [give you money]....  How many of our readers think that it's okay to be a liar?  Do you think that when Davis says that he can't give money to a person that he is telling the truth? Generally, he has to amend his statement to "I won't".  For a man that claims he can't remember the last time he sinned, this sure does seem like a confession!  He has to change his words and amend them because he lies!

What if davis' nose grew with
every lie he told?  It'd be longer
than a telephone pole or wire!

The ntcc used to preach against telling 'little white lies'; but for Davis to say that he can't give someone money is a big wolf cookie of a lie.  Of course, he would probably say it's true; because Gawd wouldn't let him give money to a brother. That's an even bigger lie!  Because the scripture also talks about seeing your brother in need and shutting up your bowels of compassion. [1 John 3:17]  How many times have preachers had needs and Davis has told them to "take up an offering"?  How many times have those in the ministry lived in squalor, way below the poverty level, while Davis and Kekel are engorging themselves on wealth and power, while ignoring their brethren's needs?

Davis has already made up his mind on this issue.  He says "I can't" when people "try to get money out of" him.  What about when people try to get compassion out of him?  What about when people need spiritual help and they are sent away empty handed.  Davis doesn't want to be bothered.  He has his piece of the pie [that you bought for him]; and he wants to enjoy his riches; so don't bother him with your petty problems. Go see Olson or Johnson or Ashmore, but don't expect Davis to do anything meaningful.  And expect Olson and Johnson and Ashmore to treat you the same way Davis did!

"A Lie can travel half way around the world while the truth is putting on it's shoes." -- Charles Spurgeon

"By mixing a little truth with it, they made their lie far stronger." --  C.S. Lewis

This is going to be straight and to the point and we are not going to draw this out. Davis is a liar.  Kekel is a liar.  They are not bible-believing church leaders. They are con-artists; and they are diabolical experts at using the bible to condemn others; while they feel absolutely no need to justify their own selfish actions.  They live contrary to their own teaching, while expecting others to follow the letter of the law.  Davis has very little compassion and does very little for anyone unless they are in his own family.  We truly believes he only does for them because they are a reflection of him or extension of himself.  Otherwise they too would be out in the cold.  Kekel and Davis both have gates to keep people off of their property and away from their castles!  They also have intercom systems to screen unwanted visitors.  They are Cult leaders that live on a Cult compound; and they are habitual liars.  They lie to obtain wealth.  Davis and Kekel keep people walking on eggshells and so worried about their own imagined sins that they don't bother to take an honest look at the these religious hucksters whom they emulate [admire / respect] and serve.

These things have been shared over and over; but it seems like people will never learn.  Whom do you love more, Davis or God?  Is Davis your god?  Is Kekel your god?  Why would you continue to give your money to these cult leaders when they are living contrary to God?  Where in the bible, (specifically in the New Testament) do you see anyone getting rich off of the gospel? NOWHERE!    Where does God say to seek your own wealth and not that of another?  NOWHERE!  Davis and Kekel are seeking their own wealth. They are not in it for anyone but themselves.  If you don't believe me, ask them for some money.  Ask them how much money they have.  Ask them where did it all come from. They will ruthlessly blast you.  They will get furious.  And their anger will be known to everyone.  Is that the type of person you want to trust with your soul?  Is that whom you want to follow to heaven?  If you continue to follow them you will surely fall into many foolish and hurtful lusts; as it is written:

1Tim 6:9  But they that will be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and [into] many foolish and hurtful lusts, which drown men in destruction and perdition.

Are you a man of God?  Listen to the commandment:

1Tim 6:11  But thou, O man of God, flee these things; and follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, meekness.

Click those verses and read it for yourself.  Don't be like double-tongued Davis:

 Rodger Wilson Davis: The
Adulterer

We spoke with a man, who years ago attended the  ntcc seminary; which, at that time, was called the New Testament Christian College, in St. Louis, Missouri.  He said not long after he and his wife arrived in St. Louis, (less than a week after), they  and the couple they were staying with drove up to the church and saw a man holding a rifle on R. W. Davis.  There were loud words exchanged, and the man with the rifle and R. W. Davis left in one car, with rw driving and the other man in the back seat still holding the gun on rw.  The new bible school student, the man with whom I spoke, and the other brother he came to church with, got in their car and caught up with them; at which time rw motioned with his hand to go ahead, to move on; which they did.  Upon returning to their house, the other brother retrieved his gun and left again to find rw.

The man,  who was present and witnessed these things first hand told them to me in a phone conversation.  He told me the name of the man who held the gun on r.w. davis, and that confirmed the name I had already been told; others knew that davis had committed adultery with that man's wife (and then some).  This is the same event that I have previously discussed on The Dispatch, according to what was reported to me.  The two stories have one variation.  In The Dispatch article, those reporting the matter said that the betrayed man with the gun forced davis to kneel  and told him "You better pray."  The man on the phone did not see that.  His story, I believe, happened after davis and the betrayed man exited the church.  As the witness said, he, the other brother, and their wives had just driven up to the church (on Forest Ave.) and saw what is shared above.  In my mind, these stories are congruent and accurate, with only a slight variation in the time at which the witnesses saw their part of the event.

This true true story describes the fallout caused by the adultery that davis committed against only one family.  But there are other instances of davis slinking around doors of other mens' wives, all while these husbands were at work.  Other women have shared how they saw davis knocking on doors of young (still not legal adults) married girls who attended the bible school.  One of those young girls said davis committed illicit sexual acts with her, taking advantage of his position of trust and her naivety.  These other women present during that time witnessed davis entering this girl's home.  And, they said, davis also tried to get them to open their doors for him while their husbands were at work; but they did not do so.

Also, on a different blog, a former ntcc Bible School instructor and minister, Vic Johanson shared this testimony:

Vic Johanson said...
Speaking of RW's ways, I was talking to an NTCC escapee the other day, and he said that he was talking to a minister in his town, whose father was from St. Louis. He related that his father had donated his book collection to a startup bible college there, whose founder was implicated in some adulterous affairs shortly thereafter. He couldn't remember the name, so my friend said "might it have been Davis?" and the guy immediately replied "RW Davis."

We were just the last to find out; that information was hidden from us. All we heard was how the Carondelet church "didn't want holiness." The truth appears that they didn't want a philandering "pastor."

APRIL 05, 2012 5:05 PM

From original post at New Testament Christian Churches, The Real Story:
http://www.truestoriesoflifeinthentcc.blogspot.com/2012/03/keep-it-in-your-church-rwd-would-in.html

These multiple witnesses verify the adulterous nature of davis. He is an impenitent adulterer.  And what's worse is he condemns some men for lesser sins, while excusing others like phil kinson who have shown no indication of repentance.  God is not a respecter of persons:

Act 10:34  Then Peter opened [his] mouth, and said, Of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons:

He can forgive all who are willing to confess their sin; as it is written:

1Jo 1:9  If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us [our] sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

The problem with hypocrites like davis is that they feel they have no need of a physician.  They think they are better than "sinners".  They are afraid to be around them, afraid their self-righteous reputations might take a hit.  But Jesus ate with the sinners:

Mar 2:16  And when the scribes and Pharisees saw him eat with publicans and sinners, they said unto his disciples, How is it that he eateth and drinketh with publicans and sinners?

Mar 2:17 When Jesus heard [it], he saith unto them, They that are whole have no need of the physician, but they that are sick: I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.

But davis is full of self-righteousness and pride,  boasting:

"I can't remember the last time I sinned."--r w davis brags.  But the bible says:

1John 1:8  If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.

1John 1:10  If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.

davis' boasting is outlandish (at best) or devilish deceit (at worst), and such boasting calls God a liar.  But the bible says God cannot lie:

Titus 1:2  In hope of eternal life, which God, that cannot lie, promised before the world began;

 It is impossible for God, The Truth, to lie:

Hebrews 6:18  That by two immutable things, in which [it was] impossible for God to lie, we might have a strong consolation, who have fled for refuge to lay hold upon the hope set before us:

John 14:6  Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.

Stilll, some men insist on living in deceitful denial of their sin.  I, just like Alan Parsons, wouldn't want to be like them either:

I Wouldn't Want To Be Like You by The Alan Parsons Project On YouTube

Instead, we cry out:

"Sir, we would see Jesus!" - John 12:21 (partial) (here)

One day each of us will die. Will you really hear "Well done, good and faithful servant...."? Or will it be "Bind him hand and foot, ... and cast him into outer darkness...."? (Matthew 22:13)  The saddest death of all was that of Israel's first King, Saul. For he was rejected by God. (1 Sam 16:1)  Yes, King Saul had been anointed. But he refused to obey. He couldn't see who truly loved him. As a result he hunted like a dog, the man, David, who fought for God, for Israel, and for love of the very man who was trying to kill him, Saul. David would succeed Saul as King of Israel, not due to any treachery of David's; but simply because God had so ordained it. When Saul was dead, David wept and lamented the loss of Saul and Jonathan [2 Sam 1:17-27].

I've lost respect for davis and his closest followers and supporters.  But like David, I will mourn their deaths and remember what could have been or should have been.  It's not that these men were not anointed; I believe they were.  But I believe they forsook that anointing and the God Who bought them with His blood.  They wanted the world.  And just as the audio version of The Pilgrim's Progress stated:  "Those who take up Christ to gain the world, will lose Christ to keep the world."  That's how I see these men who run the business, the organization called New Testament Christian Churches of America, Inc.  They would rather keep their money, than allow God to keep them.

The first video, a mash-up of Alan Parsons' "I Robot" and "I Wouldn't Want to be Like You" contains a screen shot (~5:57-6:00~) of the movie, "I, Robot" starring Will Smith.  The subtitle reads "One man saw it coming."  How fitting.  One man saw it coming, and didn't want to be like you, r.w.!

In Case You Were Wondering:
If so many people know about these acts of adultery, why haven't they come forward?  It seems that for some reason folks have largely remained silent about this.  Perhaps they discussed it more in different forums.  Perhaps they are trying to protect the victims.  Yet God had His servants record in the bible both  the names of  Bathseba and David when they committed adultery. Perhaps people  are afraid of the false ntcc doctrine that "touch not mine anointed" means one can't speak about an anointed one's sin?  The bible clearly shows "anointed" ones being rebuked for their sins.  Nathan rebuked David for his sin of adultery.  And David challenged Saul for hunting him for no reason.  But David would not let his men physically harm Saul.  That is the difference.  We know David obtained mercy despite committing adultery and murder by proxy.    David repented.  He did not continue in sin.  He obtained mercy and truly turned from his sin.

What will you do, rw?  Will you continue to play the "Games People Play?  Will you continue to spout off that you are the "Eye in the Sky" when that title belongs to Another? Will you seize this opportunity to repent?  Or will the "Time" come when we mourn you, "Goodbye, My Friend" like it says in the song or as Christ called Judas Iscariot "Friend"?

Mat 26:48  Now he that betrayed him gave them a sign, saying, Whomsoever I shall kiss, that same is he: hold him fast.

Mat 26:49  And forthwith he came to Jesus, and said, Hail, master; and kissed him.

Mat 26:50  And Jesus said unto him, Friend, wherefore art thou come? Then came they, and laid hands on Jesus, and took him.

Luk 22:48  But Jesus said unto him, Judas, betrayest thou the Son of man with a kiss?

I've come to wonder over the years why that man, Alan Parsons, didn't pull the trigger on old r.w.  I suppose 'twas mercy stayed his hand.  Yet 44+ years later, viewing, from hindsight, the aftermath of destruction wrought upon the untold unsuspecting souls by davis and his disciples, I again have to wonder; Would it have been more merciful to pull the trigger?  One down, thousands spared years of grief and destruction, of sexual immorality and perversion, of child and wife abuse, of fractured faith and frustrated futures.  Well, only God knows.  He is the True Eye In The Sky.  He is longsuffering, not willing that any should perish:

2Pe 3:9  The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.

So how 'bout it, rahj?  Will you for once in your life repent?  There's still hope, as long as you're still breathing.  Right?  Isn't that what you or olson taught?  There's hope as long as still breathing.  Unless those breaths are taken from a person's death-bed or by the thief on the cross; right?  That is also what you taught.  Well, rahj, which way would you want it for you on your deathbed?  Why teach two things that contradict each other and try to claim, as r w davis so often has:

"I've never missed God."--by which Rodger Wilson Davis claimed to mean that he was infallible, never missing the will of God; but now I wonder if it really means he is no longer troubled by the absence of God from his life; rodger never missed God.

"All I do is by the Holy Ghost."--Rodger Wilson Davis' claim to infamy.  Puh-leez don't blaspheme the Sweet Holy Spirit, rodger, by blaming the Holy Ghost for all the wicked stuff you've done.  The Holy Ghost never told you to commit adultery!

And how about it, readers?  Did you, as I once did, hold these men in high esteem?  Were you, as was I, duped?  Don't despair.  The bible said every man a liar:

Rom 3:4 God forbid: yea, let God be true, but every man a liar; as it is written, That thou mightest be justified in thy sayings, and mightest overcome when thou art judged.

Are you broken by the borg?  Trust Jesus.  God is able to keep that which is committed unto Him:

2Ti 1:12  For the which cause I also suffer these things: nevertheless I am not ashamed: for I know whom I have believed, and am persuaded that he is able to keep that which I have committed unto him against that day.

I don't hold much hope for davis and his impenitent ilk to repent.  But, beloved, for those who have been broken by the borg-scoundrels, I believe better things for you:

1 Tim 6:11-14
1 Tim 6:6-10
