The actions of the hardliners on this forum us embarrassing to say the least.
It is again the old kick them when they are down.
If you were to try and reach someone who is leaving your mothership.
Are you sure these comments are the Godly approach?
I don't think so...
Much of the UPCI that I have live for the past 40 plus year was cultish.
Plain and simple.
It was control through fear and pressure..
Which by the way tears down faith.
Since faith is personal and we are not called to fear.

Let's not play the role here. Roni has left years ago, but is not making an official statement. She has done so by publicly chastising a belief system many of us hold dear - on a forum where we all speak our opinions. Please notify me when this is a therapy session and not "contending" for the Gospel. Rhoni has hurt miles deep, and has been open about that. Meekness is not weakness. These "wish you all the best" and "you're still saved" remarks are more damnable than anything else. Love is not always a back rub and free massage. Sometimes it's (thanks John McCain) STRAIGHT TALK!
