Re: Mental health recovery after CF.

Breakfree - thank you so much for sharing your story. The PTSD, Depression and general brokenness resonates with me and you certainly suffered near fatal consequences. Also, I think you have highlighted an important point. That it is very very important for people to seek help from professionals on ...

How the Christian Fellowship Pray?

Hello Fellow Streetcar readers, I was prompted to make this post after I watched the following short video and it brought back some memories. The video is very short (3mins) and it is made by a man who has left the Exclusive Brethren (EB) group. The video details how the EB leaders and congregation ...

Re: Recent teachings

Thanks very much to Thanomere and Guest for bringing the twisted teachings of Vic Hall and the Christian Fellowship beliefs out into the open and into the light. In true twisted Vic Hall play book, Vic has redefined “us” as being the Christian Fellowship group and leaders and then goes to cherry pic...

Re: Cult-Like Narcissistic Systems

Thank you Dexter and Guest for posting those videos. Guest - those three Signs that you posted there as a Brief Summary are excellent. Each one of those three Signs gets an affirmative tick for Christian Fellowship behaviour - that was certainly my personal experience. The logical conclusion to this...

Re: The False Prophet

Mention of these CF September conferences keeps coming up in the forum threads. Obviously one was held in Melbourne. Does anyone know if one of these conferences was held in Brisbane? I do remember a friend saying he was going to Brisbane to stay with CF friends for the conference. It was after this...

Re: What is Happening at BCF?

Thanks Lillith and Stargazer for your updates. Separating topics for a second. Firstly, I would truly wish Ian Barlow and Bronwyn every happiness and blessing - every married couple deserved this. Secondly, from a general perspective and my historical observations there appear to be double standards...

Re: Everything you need to know about Lampstand Churches™

Thank you for detailing, exposing and bringing this dreadful act into the public light Stargazer. And herein lies the heart of the CF doctrine exposed. 1) The CF does not preach the gospel to the community at large - they are certainly not the shining light in a dark world which Christ called us to ...

Water Baptism at the Christian Fellowship

Hello Wonderful People. Quick question. Do any of the Christian Fellowship locations/group still undertake water baptism? The reason I ask is that in the 5 years leading up to the time when our family stopped attending the CF, we can’t remember them doing any Water Baptisms during that time. After w...

Re: Dispensationalism Star Messengers and Present Word

Hi Stargazer, thanks for your post. Regarding the leadership of the Christian Fellowship and theological training, I think you are correct. No person in current leadership in the Christian Fellowship has any theological training (certainly here in Brisbane and wider Queensland). Formerly I was aware...
