Pastor Neville Johnson of Academy of Light, Queensland died on 1st September 2019. Liked oral sex from church secretaries.
Pastor Neville Johnson of Academy of Light, Queensland died on 1st September 2019 after a short illness.
I presume he died at home in Maleny, Queensland, or in hospital nearby.
If anyone knows more details about what he died from and the circumstances surrounding his death, please could you make a comment in the comment’s box on this article or another Neville Johnson article on this site.
I became a Holy Spirit-filled Christian on 5 December 1995 aged 18 in Wellington, New Zealand.
My parents were Presbyterian clergy (pastors) so I grew up in a strong Christian family in New Zealand.
Now aged 62 I can reflect on a long life of many adventures and many events.
I first heard of Pastor Neville Johnson in 1976 when Pentecostal and Charismatic Christians in Wellington heard about Neville Johnson’s successes in central Auckland, New Zealand’s largest city.
Auckland had a population of one million in those days. Its population is now 1.7 million.
In 1999 I moved to Auckland and attended Neville Johnson’s church in central Auckland – Queen Street Assemblies of God.
In 1999 there were 3000 people attending Queen Street Assemblies of God. It met in Auckland Town Hall, so it was really on the map.
The worship was beautiful. They had that aspect of the church going really well.
Neville Johnson’s sermons were deep and spiritual. He liked to use Old Testament typologies and draw “deep truths” from them. His manner was cool for cats. He was immaculately dressed in suave conservative suits. He was a suit man, as were all the young pastors under him – Gary Leven and others.
Everyone held Neville Johnson in awe. He projected a super-spiritual holy facade.
Unknown to everyone through the 1970s married Neville Johnson had been taking a series of three personal secretaries to Auckland motels to pleasure himself with them.
Neville Johnson’s ultimate sexual pleasure of choice were blow jobs or oral sex. That is, having his secretaries give him fellacio (oral sex to his penis).
Urban Dictionary:
So this was Neville Johnson’s specialty.
Neville Johnson took his young female church personal secretaries to Auckland motel rooms on the premise that he was doing prayer and fasting and needed his secretary with him.
In reality he was having it off with them.
I presume Neville Johnson did everything else with his secretaries apart from vaginal penetration. No doubt he stripped them naked, caressed them, got them to caress him and so on. No doubt he was very loving, caring and patient – all godly qualities.
Neville Johnson got caught out for what he was doing in the early 1980s when one of these secretaries, Rev Victor Johnston’s daughter, confessed to her dad.
Rev Victor Johnston was head of Neville Johnson’s Zion Bible College which was run from a large house near Epsom Auckland. I can’t recall the suburb’s name.
So Rev Victor Johnston’s daughter, confessed to her dad about what Neville Johnson had been doing with her in those motel rooms.
Rev Victor Johnston and other leaders talked to Neville Johnson’s previous two secretaries and they said Neville had been doing the same things with them.
Rev Victor Johnston was a Professor in Old Testament at the New Zealand Bible College in Henderson, Auckland who was invited by Neville Johnson to pioneer and head Neville’s new Zion Bible College.
Rev Victor Johnston was a colleague and friend of my father Rev Don Elley who was Professor of Pastoral Care, Missions and Evangelism at the New Zealand Bible College.
The New Zealand Bible College is now called Laidlaw College.

My father Rev Don Elley. Very honourable and godly. Highly intelligent and highly educated.
My father told me how hurt Victor Johnson, known as Vic Johnson, was about what Neville Johnson did with his daughter.
In the early 1980s, I talked with Vic Johnson and his wife Helga about this scandal. Vic and Helga shared how hurt and betrayed they felt by Neville Johnson on many levels.
The fall-out from revelation of Neville Johnson’s immorality while a Christian pastor was catastrophic and devastating for Queen Street Assemblies of God. In a year the church went from 3000 people to a few hundred. Only the really diehard remained.
So Neville Johnson built up and destroyed the largest church ever in New Zealand, even to this day. God will judge.
The first time I met “Doctor Phil” Pringle was in 1982.
I was a builder working at Christian Life Centre Darlinghurst. CLC Darlo for short. This was the second location and second name for Hillsong mega-church.
The lifelong secret pedophile and child rapist “Pastor” Frank Houston the founder of Hillsong mega-church was showing Phil Pringle my handiwork. This is before he acquired his doctorate from an unknown Theological college overseas in the early 1990s and announced to his C3 staff and the world, “Call me Dr Phil Pringle from now on”.
I still remember the day very clearly when I first met Phil.
The party of pastors arrived with a young Phil Pringle boasting to his spiritual father, the lifelong secret pedophile and child rapist “Pastor” Frank Houston the founder of Hillsong Global Church, about his “amazing” vision for the lost of Sydney and how he was going to build a mighty church in Sydney’s Northern Beaches with a massive Bible College etc etc.
I was watching and listening and thought, “This guy is full of himself”.
Success for Doctor Phil
“Doctor Phil” Pringle was called plain old “Pastor Phil” in those days.
Plain old “Pastor Phil” was boasting his head off but everything he boasted about has come to pass. A kind of Donald Trump of Australian Pentecostal Christianity.
My friend Donald
Rev Frank Houston, who’d been secretly raping little boys and young male teens for over forty years, said to Phil Pringle, “This is my good friend Donald. He’s built all you can see”.
I glowed inside with pride and was thankful The Great Frank Houston regarded me as “a friend”.
I realised seven years later in 1990 that Frank Houston was a rotten and corrupt but I didn’t understand what he’d done and how bad he was until the past 7 years since I started writing about Hillsong and the Houstons.
Collaroy C3
My second view of “Doctor Phil” Pringle was at a warehouse in the beachside suburb of Collaroy on Sydney’s Northern Beaches in 1984. I visited there to see what was going on. I’d heard this church in a warehouse was going well.
The church was busy and pumping with several hundred people attending.
C3 in Brookvale
C3 then moved in the 1980s to a larger warehouse in an Industrial Estate in Brookvale. I went there a few times.
I remember a Howard-Brown crusade there in the early 1990s where people were laughing out loud even when he preached, making animal noises like chooks and dogs barking and weird body movements.
I thought “Yucko. This isn’t the Holy Spirit. More demons manifesting and weird expressions of human flesh”.
I was right.
To be continued…

Pastor Pat Mesiti, a pastor of Hillsong Global Church and C3 Global Church. Close friend of Brian Houston. Convicted in Parramatta Court, Sydney, Australia of Domestic Violence in 2016. Visited prostitutes on his Hillsong credit card while a Hillsong Youth evangelist. Didn’t tell everyone the truth about what he did and with whom. Self-confessed Sex Addict. Still teaching in Hillsong and C3 Churches after “Dr” Phil Pringle of C3 Church restored him in 2004. No evidence of any restoration fruits ever.
I’ve been contacted by a high up Hillsong insider who believes that Hillsong has gone off the rails and wants to tell their story.
This article is the first in a series of articles publishing the eye-witness testimonies of this Hillsong insider.
Hillsong insider speaks:
“Pat Mesiti committed adultery with Darlinghurst prostitutes while he was a famous Hillsong Youth Alive pastor preaching to thousands of young people.
Pat Mesiti was caught by paying for the services of prostitutes using a Hillsong Church credit card.
Pat Mesiti had an adulterous affair, while he was married, with a young Hillsong worship leader.
He divorced his wife and married the young Hillsong worship leader who he had the affair with.
The pursuit and even harassment of young attractive women in Hillsong church by older Hillsong men and leaders is common. In fact it is part of the inner culture of Hillsong church”.
My comments:

The writer of this site Donald Elley of Bellingen. Got a Hillsong headache from writing about Brian Houston and his mates like Pat Mesiti.

“It’s all jobs for the boys at Hillsong”. “Pastor” Brian Houston (right) on holiday in Positano South, Amalfi Coast, South Italy with “Pastor” Pasquale “Pat” Mesiti the wife bashing sex addict preacher and Brian’s close friend. With other Hillsong senior players- Hillsong pastor Grant Thomson, who is based at Hills and is the global marketing director and Hillsong pastor Darren Kitto, who was at Hills, and who now lives in Los Angeles and is the manager of the Hillsong Channel.
I’d already heard these allegations from other sources about Pat Mesiti using a Hillsong credit card to pay for Darlinghurst prostitutes and getting caught out.
What I’d like to know is were the prostitutes male or female or bisexual or did he visit all of these three options?
Also were any of the prostitutes underage? If they were, that’s pedophilia.
Pastor Pat Mesiti could verify this by posting a comment in the comments box at the bottom of this article.
I’d also like to refer the reader to my previous article about Pat Mesiti published on 24 February this year entitled, “Pat Mesiti. Adultery. Hillsong Youth Pastor. Youth Alive evangelist. Fell from grace and restored by Phil Pringle. How the corrupt priests of Pentecost sowed devils on each other. Part 8. Australian and New Zealand errant Pentecostal pastors who couldn’t keep it in their trousers or sexually abused little kids”. If you google this tile or “Pat Mesiti” you’ll find it.
I’ll have to upgrade this article to mention the allegation of Pat Mesiti committing adultery on a Hillsong credit card with Darlinghurst prostitutes.
I’ve heard allegations that Pat Mesiti used to go and visit Darlinghurst prostitutes, circa 2000, after preaching to thousands of innocent believing young people at Hillsong Youth Alive meetings in Sydney. My older children used to go to these meetings.
