MCF is the Satanic Church of the Vegetative State.

Sorry for the banality and shocking words, but this is my new name for Melbourne Christian Fellowship and BCF after what they did to my family and scores of other families.
"The Satanic Church of the Vegetative State"
That describes them perfectly.
A church that made you think it was a church of 'fellowship of all believers' that ultimately banned you from thinking or contributing ANYTHING unless it perfectly lined up with their latest book.
Most importantly it banned you from making ANY moves in your life - including career, ministry, business and hobbies - that you couldn't fully justify to the elders. So you sat for 5 . . 10 . . 15 . . 20 . . 25 years second guessing yourself DOING NOTHING! All you could do was HOPE that YOUR elder MAGICALLY asked you to do something. Or RELEASED you from something he had banned you from.
People would look at you strangely if at a home group meeting you said 'I got a lot out of reading Psalm 149'. The only thing we could say at the last 25 YEARS of HGs was how the current word has impacted us!
Nothing else would do.
So in the last 25 years of Wednesday nights I can only remember two occasions where we deviated from this format.
Nobody could have any plans for their life or business or career or their ministry.
None. Everything had to be drip-fed to the elders until they OKed it.
In reality, almost all of us, have our little revelations of what would be 'cool' to do next in our life almost in complete form. We get it and think, wow, I want to do that! But at MCF, forget it!
Ray Jackson Jnr told me that you don't try and benefit the world through your business. You don't hope to make extra to donate it to charities etc or have a philanthropic arm. And of course 'no man can start a business unless an elder ASKS him to'. And I was told I was not allowed to think about science and technology. While elders children ran huge AV events with scantily-clad cheering girls or provided body-building foods. Yeah that's what the world really needs Steve and Sean. Let's do more of that. And give the overflow straight to the elders for their cars and holidays.
Ministry. Ambition. Plans. Career. Entrepreneurial. Self-made.
These were all dirty words.
Add 'thinking' to it.
We lived the life of 'The Satanic Church of the Vegetative State' for 25-35 years.
Everyone there is in a vegetative state, sitting, aging, getting grey.
And they will never do ANYTHING EVER for themselves, Christ or ANYONE else.
Just remember the poor couple who were told they were UNWORTHY for singing and playing organ at old age homes.
MCF is utterly SATANIC.
