Clarification from Scott Rauscher etc

Bozeman, MT
November 11, 2023

Dear concerned friends,

On behalf of the 5 of us, who signed a letter specifically written for you personally about specific cases on Nov. 9th, 2023 (the few couples of concerned friends in Bozeman), as well as on the behalf of Jim Deming, we want to clarify any misunderstandings regarding victims. We apologize for any misunderstanding our last communication might have caused.

For many to say we do not care about victims’ feelings/needs is patently untrue. We are not insinuating in any way that victims won’t be listened to, believed, or helped from the past, present, or future. We acknowledge and hurt for the victims whose past is very much their present. This includes when there is a realization of what was previously done to them that becomes a very present struggle. We completely support victims in their journey and want to do what we can to help and encourage healing from wounds rather than having to carry them as open sores for their lifetime.

We are not the investigative team nor the trauma team for either the victim nor the perpetrator. We are continuing and will continue to work with all individuals and situations that have been brought to our attention with positive actions that are being taken in this field.

We have personally reached out to potential and known victims and provided resources and care. There has been access to a licensed counselor at no charge to the victims of sexual abuse. We continue to value them and want to protect their safety. Please understand that the spiritual safety for all is our greatest concern.

In true care,

Scott, Tom, Tammy, Heidi & Alexis

    • Spiritual safety for all is your greatest concern? Really!?! All, including predators and abusers? God is their judge and Jesus is their savior – why are you so accommodating and willing to prioritize their salvation in spite of, and at great risk to, the vulnerable? Oh yeah, that’s right, you think you hold the key to salvation and you mustn’t deny anyone their chance of salvation via meeting attendence. I’ve got news for you – Jesus ONLY is the key to salvation. You are just a man, no better than anyone else. Workers and meetings DO NOT equal salvation. Seems to me that what is being conveyed here in this statement is the man-made doctrine of the workers who think eternal salvation is only possible through them, prioritize the
      “salvation” of predators and abusers over the physical and emotional well-being and safety of those most vulnerable. Who cares about the physical and emotional safety of the children and other victims? The spiritual safety of all is of greatest concern!?? This is so wrong!!! Absolutely disgusting!!!

    • two cents
      Scott should-MUST confess to His behavior of the PAST.
      Scott must admit that his past behavior has caused much distress.
      Scott must admit that his past behavior is wrong.
      Scott must admit that his past behavior is NOT acceptable to or by God.
      Scott must voice the sequence and manner of His actions against Ashley.
      Scott must admit his behavior to and against Ashley when she came as an advocate for a hurting soul, WAS very twisted, demeaning and cruel.
      Scott must apologize for His behavior and acknowledge HE caused great unnecessary distress to many of God’s Children.
      Scott must acknowledge his demanding actions were and are not actions acceptable of God’s Ministry; or of himself as a self called minister.
      Scott must contact Ashley – in person: MAKE EYE Contact – with her chosen witnesses and recount his actions against her.
      Scott must admit that he knew and NOW-YET, knows his behavior is/was wrong. He must NOT put the blame to or on anyone else.
      AND HOW DOES ONE ASK AND GET FORGIVNESS for a callous head, callous heart and callous mind:::; when an innocent child has been reduced to suffocation while the object of satisfaction of (SELF-CALLED) Minister of God in His vile and twisted lust?
      There is only one acceptable course of action! After they have done all of the above:
      Each and everyone involved, takes turns providing for, caring for and with Joy makes this child and their family; their LIFE”S purpose and work!

  1. Bucky, Scott is referencing another cult when he says, “spiritual safety”. The Church of Jesus Christ of the Latter Day Saints (Mormons) uses that terminology in their teachings. Their material reads, “spiritual safety—I pray for continual strength for me and for my family to live true to our covenants. We should live wisely in protecting ourselves from bodily harm; but, in reality, whether we live a long or a short life on this earth is perhaps of relatively little consequence in the eternities. What really matters is our character, reflected in how we live. Living the life of a covenant-maker and covenant-keeper is of highest value, as that is the only way for us to fulfill our eternal purpose”. Spiritual safety with “covenant-maker” and “covenant-keeper”, the Mormons say, “We thank you for being good Latter-day Saints”. Like the two by twos, the Mormons are not Christian and are a cult. Wear a bun up and a skirt, or a nice pressed white shirt and tie and you can be a ” good two by twos “. Christianity? Who’s Christ?

    • Thanks for the education – Montana is somewhat close to Salt Lake – maybe Scott took a guided tour of the complex and maybe even heard the Mormons sing and play instruments in their cathedral. Always wondered why the Mormons, who were started by Joe Smith were so much more successful that than the William Irvine started cult. It may be because they embrace Smith while the cult denies knowing anything about Irvine.

    • Would the denial of the trinity also not make the 2by2 sect not Christian. Pretty sure many sects would consider the baptism possibly invalid because the denial of Christ as God.

  2. C’mon Scott! Scott is definitely referring to Mormon teaching. “Spiritual safety” is directly lifted from their material. Mormons teach, “How to Stay Spiritual Safe”.

  3. Thank you for the apology. With all the stir this caused it would be nice to know what it’s all about. Is this going to be another secret where workers decide the saints are not allowed to know (no transparency)? When there is a “big” disagreement between saints and workers, the saints have every right to ask what it is, and know about it. I would guess the couples that are upset, if you’re reading this, could let us know. If anyone is in the know please post it here. I think we’d rather know than guess what it could be. Maybe it’s none of our business (seems unlikely).

  4. Good observation CMS. Mormons teach much the same as the fellowship and observe similar customs. Both teach exclusive (their group is THE group of God), both have a dress code, works are considered above the Grace of God and Jesus dying on the cross for the sins of man and then rising up again (vs. mankind may be saved, by obedience to the laws and ordinances of the gospel), both send out their missionaries two by two, both have their beginning in the 1800s (Mormons in 1830 , fellowship in 1897), both believe they are in the same organization that existed in the Primitive Church (namely, apostles, prophets…), both are considered by many people to be a cult. Does it surprise anybody Scott would quote the Mormons?

  5. Tom Landon, the inner circle of the Mormons is very secretive and at a “higher level” than the base cast member. You say, “Is this going to be another secret where workers decide the saints are not allowed to know (no transparency)? When there is a “big” disagreement between saints and workers, the saints have every right to ask what it is, and know about it”. The fundamentals are, the saints are not in a place to know. They have to understand that.

  6. To Overseer’s: You either shun perps OR victim’s,
    You can NOT have it both ways.
    You can NOT serve both good & evil.
    Your tolerance of sexual immorality is appalling.
