Re: The Rewritten Testimony of a Former Favoured Agent of Victor Hall

The good news, however, is that with people like you and I once being active in the church, and having seen all the damage this current 'leadership' (I can scarce bring myself to even call it that - it's DICTATORSHIP, not leadership, that's what it is. A powerful attraction in many religious groups...

Re: "Not Drawing Back"

Yep eagles, I pointed out to them that the gospel was ALREADY established and we didn't need 'new' interpretations. I'm quite certain that in trying to keep up with restorationists like Ofler and Ray Jackson Snr (who I am convinced did come with restorations like Luther), Vic felt he had to have som...

Re: Forced Compliance Behaviour

Yes, I realized somewhere along the years that MCF was all about PSYCHING us out through essentially natural means rather than believing all good things about us and relegating the obvious bad ones to the shelf to be worked on. Instead every GOOD THING was assumed to somehow be an idol to be laid do...

Re: Who will ascend and descend?

It's current RFI teaching.

Ascending and descending are, respectively, giving (praising, laying down etc) and receiving (of word or prophecies or direction).
Referred to in body ministry time (spiritual songs & gifts of the spirit during Sunday communion).

Largely makes sense.
But how necessary?

Re: "Not Drawing Back"

In 2016 we realized that we hadn't been allowed to say anything for 20 years! You needed to have a Vic-level revelation to be heard (or play a guitar). Or else give some example of how the MCF word was benefiting us. But because it was destroying us we had nothing to say for 20 years. That's when we...

Re: "Not Drawing Back"

Yep. We got 25 years teaching on headship, chastening and suffering. No concept of balance. It makes sense that once you are controlling you suddenly have ZERO output from everyone. So there's just nothing else coming and you end up stuck on a topic for 20 years. Sunday School was totally balanced h...

Re: Spiritual Abuse

Yep. I've certainly experienced horrific shunning. At MCF it works like this. As soon as you no longer WORSHIP the elders, you become completely expendable. All the past friendship, work, love, prayers and fun become NOTHING! They realize you no longer subscribe 100% to their worldview and you're ou...

Re: "Not Drawing Back"

From Easter 2016 they also started teaching us that we have no SONSHIP MINISTRIES to steward NOW. They are all 'hidden in Christ' for use later (eg after the resurrection). Instead FOR NOW we are to just 'obey our administration leaders'. They said: so relax, you don't need to worry (ie or do or ini...

Re: The Rewritten Testimony of a Former Favoured Agent of Victor Hall

I'm really thrilled to hear that you finally got out. How is your relationship with your parents now (or did I miss that)?
