It struck me today that what MCF (Melbourne Christian Fellowship) and BCF (Brisbane CF) essentially have managed to achieve is institutionalized bullying. But how do they manage it without tipping off everyone? Part of the answer is the new, un-Biblical theology has so many built-in excuses for bullying: You need to hear from outside yourselfContinue reading “How does MCF/BCF pull-off institutionalized bullying?”

Tim Maurice’s fall to the dark side
When I met Tim at MCF (Melbourne Christian Fellowship) in the late 1990s he was a really nice young guy from Sydney, brimming with confidence and friendliness. But sometime around the 2000s he succumbed to the dark side, from everything I’ve seen and everything I’ve heard. He’s played major roles in Simon’s miseries and otherContinue reading “Tim Maurice’s fall to the dark side”
XCF churches are wolf-like and plain stupidly delinquent and childish
I just re-read my own post on the ‘farewell damnation’ letter to Simon Doyle (NCF/SCF) by an elder. Not only are these guys wolf-like. They are like babies. How you put up with it Richie (& everyone at MCF/XCF) I can’t fathom? Yes I can. It’s because you are not the kind-hearted fellow you putContinue reading “XCF churches are wolf-like and plain stupidly delinquent and childish”
There was something unique about our leaving
We were the only ones who – to my knowledge – ever left MCF (Melbourne Christian Fellowship) ‘violently’. By ‘violently’ I mean with a big fuss. Why? I’m not trying to big note myself. Or air dirty laundry. I just want to know why. Everyone else – to my knowledge – didn’t try and rockContinue reading “There was something unique about our leaving”
MCF congregants, you act as if MCF is right irrespective of anything
The saddest thing about our friends we have left behind at MCF (Melbourne Christian Fellowship) and BCF (Brisbane Christian Fellowship) is that, almost without exception, they act as if: MCF is right no matter what evidence is given MCF’s teachings are so important that the ends justify the means Even if you agree with us,Continue reading “MCF congregants, you act as if MCF is right irrespective of anything”
Is this slander? Is it necessary?
I’m on an early pre-Christmas break so forgive my irregular postings this week. And soon we’ve got a multi-part testimony coming from Simon Doyle which really shows how unhealthy and un-Christian XCF is. Then . . and now. Well. in my mind, it’s not slander if it’s true. And my comments are just my recollectionContinue reading “Is this slander? Is it necessary?”
Victim mentality?
Oh MCF (Melbourne Christian Fellowship). You went on and on about your hatred of the ‘victim mentality’. But what other church (other than perhaps the Catholic Church) has so much (unholy) need to be against the victim mentality? Why should you have such hatred for victims that are seeking justice? Do you not understand howContinue reading “Victim mentality?”
The Little Ones List
UPDATE: 3 more families added today (Tuesday, Dec 3rd, 2019). This is a list of people and families abused by MCF (Melbourne Christian Fellowship)/BCF (Brisbane Christian Fellowship) and its offshoots, mostly, but not exclusively, since 1992 (i.e. due to the Vic Hall ‘guru messenger‘ word). It does NOT (yet) include hundreds of people affected byContinue reading “The Little Ones List”
Characteristics of (false) super apostles
IMO, the type of leadership at MCF (Melbourne Christian Fellowship) and BCF (Brisbane Christian Fellowship) we lived under for more than 25 years is best described by 2 Cor 11. Paul describes the characteristics of so-called ‘super apostles’, ones that were claiming to be apostolic messengers: 5 I do not think I am in the leastContinue reading “Characteristics of (false) super apostles”
Could Vic Hall’s visitations of Christ be true?
I would like, in good faith, (and essentially as a hypothetical) to take Vic Hall at his word, and if he says he has had visitations of Christ, I’d like to believe him, with only a few caveats: was it really Christ or someone else? And does Vic tell us everything said during the visitation?Continue reading “Could Vic Hall’s visitations of Christ be true?”
