Date Posted:08/06/2008 5:17 AMCopy HTML See "the age" - 'preacher who preyed on his flock' article.
The whole thing is very sad really, i sort of feel for Glen too, i mean read Simon L comments " he will be kicked out if found guilty" where is the love of God in that, i mean yea sure he needs to be dealt with, but for "the Church" to punish him further is horrendous, this is up to the laws of the land, the church should be there to council him and his family ( not to say what they should be doing for those burnt by this whole horrible thing) but no push them away let it not tarnish there precious reputation, what a joke and a sad indictment on the christian church as a whole. To those that have been burnt by this whole thing I am so sorry that you have gone through this and i pray that you have restitution. |

Re:Rci pastor has been uncovered Date Posted:16/06/2010 5:05 AMCopy HTML As stated above people still today stand to lose their homes, Supreme Court Findings 2008 (Public Record) revealed Victor Samoilenko made over $90,000 profit where there were no profits to receive.
There were no profits in the company. The Dukers company RVP was trading insolvent and had no cash or equity only massive debts. Claiming Assets not owned. Especially now proven the extent of the dishonesty to which the Dukers were operating their corrupt business. Wouldn't a man of such wealth and supposed Christian conscience, reflecting attributes of Christ love and compassion want to aid some of the worst affected victims that have lost so much. That money come from somewhere, it seems gained directly from others misfortune. The preferential treatment of some over others is so blatant. A mere $3,000 tax debt (Public record) in Samoilenko's name in which a genuine Joint Venture business arrangement existed even unconfirmed reference made to a second business Venture. Although Samoilenko vehemently denied any business agreement between himself and Duker to Ian Macgregor in Feb 2006. Samoilenko claiming to pay Duker a 'Spotters fee' for finding him a property to purchase. Supreme Court forced truth to be told by what is assumed a 'Godly' man- even a Pastor. Confirmation that Samoilenko knowingly lied to mislead a fellow Pastor who at that point hoped to reveal the truth. Does it not make any of you wonder what else has been knowingly lied about? Yet others not even in these Joint Venture arrangements like Samoilenko, received huge bills of $30,000 up to $400,000. GST tax debts. One victim receiving a bigger debt than the initial amount of money invested in a term investment. Even though these encumbrances are obviously wrong it has still taken great time and costs to have some of them legally proven and revoked. Victims who found these debts were claimed falsely by The Dukers have stood and fought, wanting justice revealed and consequence according to the law to take place. Yet Pastor Craig Fox silently skulked and let "Someone" pay his debt regardless of it's fraudulent nature. Court Examinations, when asked Mr Fox didn't know who payed for his personal tax debt. How do you not know, truth or lie by another Pastor. It is proven today that the Dukers fraudulently claimed GST credits using ABN numbers in other peoples names without their consent or knowledge. These victims unaware of their existence until receiving final notification from the ATO to pay back money claimed and cash pocketed entirely by the Dukers after his Liquidation of RVP. After so many years these debts continue to hang over innocent peoples heads today, victims outlaying more costs on top of loss in trying to clear themselves from such wrongfulness. These debts are not from; "Mr Duker is merely a victim of the Global Financial Crisis" as Simon Longfield so blatantly tried to mislead people in the Papers last year. Considering insolvency had been proven from 2003, what an idiotic excuse to even attempt. Samoilenko said "The only thing Glenn has done wrong is did business with people who couldnt handle it. (See Earlier Recording) How is credibility retained with obvious prejudices, financial involvement, public admission of support of the Dukers (Melb Rally 2006 and Articles) contradictions, lies, mishandleing and shameless bias there has been no Godly evidence in the way these men have conducted themselves especially toward those they should have shown compassion to- the victims. One victim made homeless by Duker contacted Longfield and the Gold Coast Pastor Steve McCauley asking for help. She was treated with contempt and they ended any conversation, ignoring her pleas for desperate help. Left with no where to sleep but her car. So much for entertaining Angels. Other non church Victims forced into a 2 bed unit with their 3 children offered all they had- floor space in their small unit after they themselves had lost their family home to Dukers Scam. For some of The Dukers victims this situation has impinged their lives for 8+ years. Many have lived with financial burden,unknowing and emotional collapse, clawing to hang on to what little security they have left for their families sake. Some are open to expose the wrong doings by the Dukers others are so emotionally broken they can't even bare to speak of the situation they are seemingly unable to free themselves from. But yet there is still no compassion or acknowledgement shown to any from the church only disregard, neglect and contempt . It's nothing short of Financial rape and the Revival Centres Head Pastors have pointed the finger implying the Victims asked for it. As for Mr Bennison he has acted with indignation for all the victims plight, tirelessly showing compassion and Integrity, at both financial and personal loss. Everything you would imagine of a man who claims to know God and actively reflects it in his action. As I hear it, I'll repeat it,
Its up to you if you believe it!

Re:Rci pastor has been uncovered Date Posted:25/06/2010 8:12 AMCopy HTML Reply to Guest Read back through this thread.. You will find that Simon did have dealings of some sort.. There is enough material on this thread to earn you a Doctorate Degree in Investigative Journalism.. I have not followed the Glenn Duker thing very closely at all, hence my hesitance to comment on it. So, did Simon have dealings with Glenn or not? Was he involved as an individual or did he involve church finances? |

Re:Rci pastor has been uncovered Date Posted:04/07/2010 3:20 AMCopy HTML "Glenn Duker has been admitted as a solicitor and barrister by the Supreme Court of Victoria since 1995."
Sounds like he will be going to trial in the very same court or one of the same kind in another state, along with all the other Wolves (sorry Shepard's !!!!!). Revival Centres the exclusive brethren of the pentecostal world (Quote from Paul Longfield). |

I just dont get it if it happened last year or this year? If you attribute all your problems in life to God, and everything what you achieve in life to prayers, then you deprive yourself of a merit and deny yourself a chance of finding true causes of your problems and improving your present life and lives of the people around you.

Re:Rci pastor has been uncovered Date Posted:10/07/2010 12:00 AMCopy HTML 1. Simon was involved as an individual........ There has been constant inuendo of Simon Longfield having had buisness venture with Duker but the details are sparse. Therefore it is still to be proven. 2.Victor being on the public record of making $90,000 profit makes for one heck of an hypocrit. .........TRUE especially the latter! 3. 12 'lay' members of the RCI facing the prospect of losing their homes. ....... There is a Pastor facing financial ruin as well as 'lay' and family of 'lay' 4. do pay attention to the fact that other RCI "pastors" were in on the act as well.......Duker Supporting Pastors either their debts were paid out by an "unknown entity" (Fox), received Profit or did not fall victim of his GST rought.

Re:Rci pastor has been uncovered Date Posted:22/07/2010 2:19 AMCopy HTML Matthew Duker has declared himself Bankrupt.
How do all these Dukers maintain such opulent lifestyles? BMW's, Private Schools, Full time Nannies, Holidays and Magnificent Homes. They hardly lead an impoverished Life in any imagination. All while the Dukers victims struggle to maintain any of what lifestyle they may have left. As I hear it, I'll repeat it,

Re:Rci pastor has been uncovered Date Posted:22/07/2010 2:41 PMCopy HTML Reply to Guest Do they make it obvious on purpose? Maybe they want everyone to stand up and leave, so they can close the doors 'blamelessly' and not have to bother with it all anymore. That might not be as far from the truth as you think. After all he's seen growing up, it is not hard to imagine that Simon Longfield, at least on some subconscious level (perhaps even very consciously), has very little respect for his father and his father's life's work. God knows we see enough evidence to conclude that Simon has absolutely no respect for his father's sycophants and devotees. Selah... |

would you have the conscience to come clean or would you continue to deceive in your silence hoping you wont be subpoenaed? Would you confess your fault and put it right before God and Man? |

Glenn Duker enjoys running, playing tennis, and reading books that focus on personal development. A dedicated philanthropist, Glenn Duker supports Revival Centres International.

Re:Rci pastor has been uncovered Date Posted:15/10/2010 2:48 PMCopy HTML I wonder if Pastor Victor Samoilenko is still sprouting from the platform that "the Dukers never did anything wrong", now that he has personally received a $50,000 GST Debt to pay compliments of the Dukers $60+Million dollar bankruptcy.
More interesting will be if Samoilenko's $50,000 Debt is paid by the same Anonymous Contributor that Generously Paid Pastor Craig Fox's GST Debts. Not that the supposed contributor could be thanked as Pastor Craig Fox had a total memory lapse on the identity of who so kindly paid the Dirty Debt. Good to see the 'Mission fund' at Work. |

I am so appalled and saddened to read the details of all that has happened here. Duker is obviously a sociopath with no empathy or conscience and has gotten away with things because he expects to. He takes no responsibility for his actions and even convinces himself that he's done no wrong. He is going straight to hell. Those poor poor people who put their trust in him - not because they were naive as some outsiders will believe - but because he should have been beyond reproach. I used to be a close friend of Scott's, I am SO proud of him and at the same time appalled yet again for the treatment he has received after almost 30 years of loyalty to RCI. I pray these people get their money back and find peace, and that Duker gets what's coming to him, along with people like Simon and Victor who had the shameful indecency to support and protect him. |

Re:Rci pastor has been uncovered Date Posted:24/03/2012 7:23 AMCopy HTML Hello, Guest.
I am so appalled and saddened to read the details of all that has happened here. Duker is obviously a sociopath with no empathy or conscience and has gotten away with things because he expects to. Duker is "obviously a sociopath"? I think it reasonable to suggest that he's obviously greedy, but it's quite the leap to move from greediness to sociopathy. For starters, sociopaths struggle with maintaining interpersonal relationships, and are prone to being impulsive (i.e. they fail to plan ahead). Neither trait seems applicable to Mr Duker, given that he's demonstrated capacities that move in the opposite direction! He takes no responsibility for his actions and even convinces himself that he's done no wrong. Well he's has quite a bit of help in this department, hasn't he? Enter Simon Longfield. Enter Victor Samoilenko. He is going straight to hell. Frankly that's God's call, not yours. My prayer is that Duker repents and makes restitution to those he's ripped off. However, were I a betting man then I'd see better odds with the justice system than with Duker recalibrating his own moral compass. Those poor poor people who put their trust in him - not because they were naive as some outsiders will believe - but because he should have been beyond reproach. Noone should seek to diminish this charlatan's culpability, or for that matter the culpability of certain very senior RCI pastors; but I reckon naivety on the part of those defrauded by Mr Duker also played a part in the entire sordid business. I expect those whose trust was viciously betrayed by these men have a more realistic view of fallen human nature nowadays. I used to be a close friend of Scott's, I am SO proud of him and at the same time appalled yet again for the treatment he has received after almost 30 years of loyalty to RCI. Live and learn. As the common proverb goes, "lie down with dogs, rise up with fleas." I pray these people get their money back and find peace, and that Duker gets what's coming to him, along with people like Simon and Victor who had the shameful indecency to support and protect him. Whether or not the aggrieved are financially compensated, time alone will tell. I pray this proves the case eventually. However, those wolves who've long masqueraded as shepherds will certainly reap God's wrath and judgement, of this I have no doubts whatsoever. Blessings, Ian email: didaktikon@gmail.com
