Re: Recent teachings

Okay, Vic's style is passive-aggressive and mostly rough. Fair observation. But my concern is the content of the message, not the style. One of the previous posts rightly asked why people would even want to listen to him. And the answer is complicated. Even this thread will likely only increase the ...

Re: Recent teachings

Very astute Stargazer! The thing is, vic gets more nutters and passive aggressive as he ages. While the term 'word salad' has always applied to his "admonitions' (or whatever else he came up with the shame the congregation that has kept him in fine, fine steed for the past 30-40 years. The perf...

Re: Recent teachings

Giving an account to God is also exactly why I not only stepped down (from bringing 'the word', not on tithe thankfully) and "drew away" as the Vic puppets put it these days. Even though I still hear whisperings that I have a veil over my eyes and all the other sayings/things the CF's use ...

Re: Recent teachings

What spirit are people being led by. How do they know its the Holy Spirit. There are different types of spirits so what assurance do you have it's actually of God. In medical circles someone who claims to hear the voice of God would in most cases be diagnosed with schizophrenia. What's the differenc...

Re: Recent teachings

Be careful of the unsaid here. There is an unsaid implication, and seasoned xCF readers will probably automatically make the mental jump (or join the dots). Let me explain. There is an underlying premise that says the ‘xCF word’ is the ‘word of Christ’ because it has a polarising effect. There is no...

Here is the daily devotional. Comments most welcomed! He really hit's it from the start.

Re: Mental health recovery after CF.

Dexter, you raise a very good point. Domestic abuse blurs lines so that the victim thinks they have done something to deserve such treatment. It takes time and help for victims to see that it wasn’t their fault, it was abuse. As we consider what we suffered under the BCF style of headship we are abl...

Re: Recent teachings

I just need to put this out there... I think you've made some excellent points BreakFree. The reality is, when you attack members of the church, you attack Jesus Himself. The CF theology teaches people to do this. On the most part among the congregation, I think it's done passively, but it's there ...

Re: Recent teachings

Hi Guest can you please clarify what you mean? Different guest here. I think the post was in response to the question, "How did others connect heart and head?" I also agree that it's a difficult question to answer. For me personally, it took quite a while to push past the cognitive disson...
