Re: 7 Signs of an abusive leader

Thankyou guest of an excellent post.

Yep, big ticks for each one of those points for every Christian Fellowship Group. Certainly Vic Hall and previous leadership from Toowoomba had strong ticks in every box.

Re: What is happening in MCF these days?

Thankyou to Stargazer and all who have contributed to this thread. It is truly appalling to read about this development particularly The latest “word” that is preached the last month or so, is “surprise surprise”… on tithing to help fund the build.

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.

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?

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...
