Re: Why would a Pastor do this to me ?

I know people who joined motorcycle gangs and went through all kinds of abuse to wear a patch. People will subject themselves to all kind of abuses to join fraternities, and endure losing enormous amounts of money to be part of pyramid schemes, or money cults like Monavie and Quick Start.
People will endue everything from verbal abuse to water boarding to be part of a group. People will also kill themselves for cults. Imagine being a part of Heaven's Gate and finding out that you not only had to wear fluorescent Nikes, but you had to castrate yourself and while eating chocolate pudding mixed with sleeping pills? Yet, when we hear about Apostolic Pentecostal Churches you would think that the people who burned to death at the Branch Davidian compound got off easy. I had my bad experiences, but I had more awesome experiences in the Apostolic Movement. I don't want to offend anyone, nor discount any kind of bad experience. I just want to say that I have been around all different kinds of religions, sects, and movements, and I must say that Apostolic One God Jesus Name people are still the most fun, and that's with all their faults and fictions.

In Jesus name

Brother Benincasa
