Flipping Real Estate:
Flipping real estate is a lucrative business that was created to make large amounts of money in a short period of time. It also is used by many to launder money; because transactions can be completed quickly and finalized; money can be moved around quickly; and transactions can be complicated, making the money trail hard to follow. These are the basics of how this works; and why the ntcc is set up perfectly to thrive off real estate.
Real Estate is an Investment:
It has been one of the most stable investments in history; and only recently has it floundered. Even now, with all of the talk of increasing foreclosures and decreased property values, it is a buyer's market; and choice real estate can be purchased at a steal and sold for a decent profit, if a person knows what to do. This is how it works:
Buy Low. Fix Up Cheap. Sell High.

NTCC Sees Servicemen As Free Labor and Deep Pockets:
Or, even more profitable, you can keep it; or hoard it to yourself. It can become a cash cow under the right circumstances; say, by filling it with cash-only paying renters like bible college students and ministers; who were recruited from our nation's military forces; and whom you then require to live
CASH ONLY
Or you can make money off your investment, your upgraded fixer-upper, by filling it with cash-only tithe-paying G.I.s and service members who live at the home and are required by ntcc to sign a contract before moving in; which requires them to obey ALL the rules that they haven't even seen or heard yet, and requires them to attend all church/home functions, and pledges, in writing, that they will pay cash-only rent; oops! We meant to say "home offerings" and various other offerings that are encouraged to be made in each mandatory church function, where the ntcc minister is required to admonish everyone that "all Christians pay tithes and give in offerings"! So if you don't, in the ntcc CULTure, you are NOT considered a Christian; you are "lost" or hellbound!
Free Labor: G.I.s, Seminary Students, and Preachers:
The ntcc is set up perfectly to create endless streams of cash income to its founders and overseers. Not only do they have free labor; but they have lots of it. G.I.s will "do anything for the work of God"; especially since that will be pounded into them and used to humiliate them if they don't "give 'til it hurts". But most succumb easily enough. Give them some biscuits and gravy for breakfast; and they will work all day without a break. In the words of tanya davis kekel, who learned it from her mamma and daddy, [verna mae (not victoria, that's a name verna gave herself to make herself look like some kind of queen-B) and rodger wilson davis], the ntcc sees people as:
"Strong backs with weak minds." Quoting davis and kekel
In other words, you exist for them to exploit! They take advantage of your Christian charity / love to serve their selfish agendas. Meanwhile they despise you as being weak minded but willing to do the heavy lifting; so they don't have to lift a finger. Ahem.
Skilled Laborers Working For Peanuts:
Another way ntcc gets free or cheap labor is from the skills of bible college seminary students and ministers. Many of these ntcc men have a little bit of experience doing stuff like plumbing, electrical, drywall, roofing, etc. So ntcc has all of the worker-bees they need; and ntcc can increase the value of a building exponentially in a short time by (ab)using this free-labor and cheap-labor work force. After all,
"Anyone who loves God would do anything for the work of God." ntcc cult jargon to exploit and use people
All the ntcc has to do is 'preach' to them; and they will do anything. "If you love God, come by this Saturday and lend a hand for the work of the Lord. Help us put a roof on this building for the Lord. Help us sand the arches in this sanctuary for the Lord. Come help build the retaining wall for our massive church parking lot. You love God; don't you?" You get the picture. It is straight-up spiritual manipulation playing on a Christian's love for the Lord in order to exploit him or her. Shame on you, ntcc!
Pioneer Works and Workers:

| In a Few Years of Hard Work / Sacrifice And Most Important G.I.s Tithe Monies! |
If the minister is in an "established work" he generally will use the brethren as free labor; just like he was trained to do at the ntcc bible school (now called a seminary, even though ntcc used to mock other seminaries, calling them "cemeteries". Hypocrites.)
If it's just the preacher and his family in a work, he will use his wife and kids if he has to. The first task is to make the place livable. Then they do all the things necessary to transform it into a church or servicemen's home with a sanctuary. They will work on it for months and years to make it better and better.
Once they have increased the value of the property 2 or 3 fold or more, and have a small congregation of givers, can you guess what happens next? One of two things can happen next:
Flip That Building (Sell for Profit):
The first is that Rodger Wilson Davis and his band of 'leaders' (who crack the whip from the rear) can opt to send a complete dud and abusive jerk to a work. This is done so that he can systematically destroy the congregation by running off everyone.
This option works best if ntcc has a good chunk of equity in a property and wants to tap into that money for the purchase of a new
Whatever the reason, the idea is to run off all the faithful congregants, (who gave their time and money to build the church and the escrow account), and sell the property for a profit, (now that it is renovated), and pocket the proceeds, (zero out the escrow account), since there are no congregants to wonder what happened to all that money they gave; then ntcc corporate can continue to stump for more money at the next conference in order to have more funds to misappropriate. Sound about right? Right. But oh so wrong. But that is how it is in YOUR ntcc. If not, why all the secrecy? Why is there zero financial transparency in YOUR ntcc?
Milk It For More Cash Income:
Or, getting back to how ntcc pulls off the real-estate shuffle: The "Pioneer" (construction handyman) worker is "called by Gawd" (or was it Rodger Wilson Davis and the Executive Board?), to go to another work. Guess what? He did such a good job flipping this property, ntcc is going to make him and his family "Pioneer" another work. They get to start all over from scratch, putting all their time and work and money into another "Fixer-Upper" so that the Borg can turn another profit and send them somewhere else.
Now that this dude is gone from these renovated churches and does not have any interest whatsoever in the profit that he has generated and the equity that he has created, another man has come to take his place; the church is growing and needs a larger sanctuary or more parking spaces. What will ntcc do? They will send the ntcc building crew down there to extend the sanctuary and make more parking spaces.
The ntcc has the cheapest labor on planet earth. Where else can you find builders that are skilled enough to own their own construction businesses as General Contractors, who will do quality work for 6 dollars per hour? Only in the ntcc. Not only that, they will only be paid for forty hours a week, despite working much longer hours, with no breaks or paid lunches or vacations or benefits. They will also be expected to buy all their own tools and safety equipment. Some will even try to cheat the hardware store by purchasing a specialized tool, using it for that one job, then returning it for a refund! The things they teach you in the ntcc!
But to get back to profiting from real estate: Now the ntcc has a building that was purchased for less than 40k, that is now, thanks to free or cheap labor, worth well over $100,000.00. This building will continue to bring in tithes and offerings for years and years to come. The money will be sent to an escrow account controlled by the Graham, Washington ntcc. And the local pastor will be told to continue "to take up an offering" rather than use the money the local church raised!
If the pastor can brainwash enough new converts, he can "go full-time" in the ministry. That means he can sit on his lazy seat of do-nothing, let his congregation support him, and have a small fraction of the power that the rulers of this real-estate empire are enjoying.
Renting a Building That You Already Purchased and Renovated:
Now ntcc has many fully functional upgraded churches and servicemen's homes that have been improved and renovated; their values increased 2 or 3 times or more; many of them are paid off; yet the ntcc corporate is still charging rent on the property! Plus the congregants are bringing in tithes and offerings, 40% of which (after the bills are paid) get sent to the mother church in Graham, Washington via the ntcc invisible escrow account system; that just keeps building and building but is controlled by corporate ntcc. Nobody ever dares to question what is done with that escrow money; now do they?
Disappearing Escrow Money?
The escrow money is like a big slush fund that the ntcc overseers of the Borg can control as they see fit. Once a local pastor deposits the required 40% of the money (after church bills are met) that he collected from the local congregation, (people who are led to believe that money will go toward their local church expenses), that pastor and his congregation no longer have control over the money. It goes into an "escrow account" that is controlled by corporate ntcc in Graham, Washington.
- Why don't the leaders of the ntcc show some financial transparency and let the members of the church know where their money is going?
- Why aren't some local ministers and members appointed to oversee the escrow account from each local church?
- The local congregation gave the money.
- Why don't they have control over it?!!!
If ntcc corporate is doing right according to God, why are they being so secretive? Could it be that they have much to hide? Could it be that ntcc is laundering money or involved in some other unscrupulous activities? Isn't it written that if your deeds are evil you try to hide from the light? Look at the Gospel of John, chapter three:
And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. Jhn 3:19
For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. Jhn 3:20
But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God. Jhn 3:21
When you are doing right, you don't need to hide!
Money Laundering?
Money laundering takes place when money obtained illegally or under false pretenses is used to purchase real-estate that will later be sold for a profit. We're not accusing ntcc of money laundering; but their secrecy and many of their practices as a non-profit organization do raise the question.
What will happen if they get nationally eXposed as a cult? If Sixty Minutes or some other major news organization were to run the stories of the abuse of people and money, there would be enormous pressure to completely compromise the rest of the standards that ntcc has yet to compromise. Otherwise everything in ntcc could come crashing down around them. They would be eXposed for what they are; and people would begin to leave by the hundreds.
What would happen to the leaders who have been living off the money given by the masses? Would they sell all of the ntcc properties and zero all of the invisible escrow accounts, making deposits in off-shore banks, and live the rest of their lives in luxury? Isn't it true that they wouldn't 're-fire'; but they would 're-tire' and be independently wealthy, living off the interest of those fat invisible bank accounts?
Where Did Your Money Go?
Now that ntcc is having to address many issues that have been brought to the light publicly by this and other blogs, maybe they can address the issue of transparency. It's long overdue; and there are many ministers and members that would love to know where their hard earned money has gone. Our guess is that the ntcc will never be transparent.
- Transparency equals Honesty.
- Honesty equals Truthfulness.
- Truthfulness involves Character.
- Character requires Integrity.
- Integrity requires Faithfulness.
In our opinion ntcc will NEVER be able to exhibit these qualities; because these qualities do not exist in their lives.
