you are mixing up two different approaches. Try

        timedatectl show-timesync

timedatectl has its config in /etc/systemd/timesyncd.conf

ntpdate has no idea what systemd is doing

set your NTP IP in /etc/systemd/timesyncd.conf
and restart 

        systemctl restart systemd-timesyncd

or disable the service

        systemctl status systemd-timesyncd
        systemctl disable systemd-timesyncd

Not so hard to read man pages though

        man timesyncd.conf
