Although life at MCF (Melbourne Christian Fellowship) with your guru elder was like being thrown to the lions, that’s not what I mean. I’m talking about life in general at MCF. The elders and up-coming leaders all could talk this lingo they had learned from Vic Hall’s Biblically-unsound books. We used it too, but notContinue reading “MCF was like pointless games in a compassion-less Colosseum”

The timeline of MCF’s destruction of my life (Part VI)
Last time I covered the beginnings of my exposure to MCF of what they had done to me. Next, after the perpetrators of the abuse largely made ‘non-apology’ apologies and Gary Worth made zero apologies, I took it to the full MCF presbytery which consisted of : Gary WorthBob StevensRichie Kaa (Jnr)Matt Bellingham Bob StevensContinue reading “The timeline of MCF’s destruction of my life (Part VI)”
The timeline of MCF’s destruction of my life (Part V)
Yesterday I covered the majority of the systematic and sustained psychological abuse over a 20 year period committed by my local leaders David Bonham and his side-kicks, against me, together with the MCF (Melbourne Christian Fellowship) presbytery because senior presbytery member Laurie Holland, knew what was going on. Today, I’ll describe our realization tha twe’dContinue reading “The timeline of MCF’s destruction of my life (Part V)”
The timeline of MCF’s destruction of my life (Part IV)
Last time we were up to the Big Bang of 1988, the falling of two top leaders from MCF (Melbourne Christian Fellowship) and the calm between the storms of 1988-1992 where Vic Hall was gradually taking over from Brisbane Christian Fellowship (BCF). Now we enter the phases of 1992-1996 and 1996-2016 where Vic Hall graduallyContinue reading “The timeline of MCF’s destruction of my life (Part IV)”
The cult of ‘Guru Headship’ was dangerous nonsense
The way of ‘guru headship’, as taught at Melbourne Christian Fellowship, and its Brisbane counterpart, apart from being non-Biblical, was horrifically presumptuous and lazy. And dangerous. And, Biblically, complete nonsense. But here I’ll focus on how, in the end, it was a con-job. It put elders between man and Christ as an actual required-for-salvation doctrinalContinue reading “The cult of ‘Guru Headship’ was dangerous nonsense”
The Curse of the Golden Lampstand (Part III)
Excuse my juvenile ‘Indiana Jones’-like blog page title but today I’ll conclude my 3-part series on the three travelling teachers that brought to us, at MCF (Melbourne Christian Fellowship) in the 1992-2016 period, the cultish BCF (Brisbane Christian Fellowship ) word and then all three men . . mysteriously . . disappeared, in many cases/locations,Continue reading “The Curse of the Golden Lampstand (Part III)”
Charles’ 2nd Vision
In 2012, my Dad, Charles had an unexpected vision of the deception the elders were under. But this week, in October 2019, after I told him about my (this) blog, he had a 2nd relevant vision that night, for the first time since 2012. In his vision this week he saw himself in a stadium,Continue reading “Charles’ 2nd Vision”
The Curse of the Golden Lampstand (Part II)
Following on from part I, where I covered David Falk, today I want to continue discussing what happened to the three primary messengers to MCF (Melbourne Christian Fellowship) of Vic Hall’s insidious cult teachings. Because all three of them mysteriously disappeared: one fell, one had a nervous breakdown and the other got sacked. And allContinue reading “The Curse of the Golden Lampstand (Part II)”
The Curse of the Golden Lampstand (Part I)
Just a silly title. But it’s true. The three men who most force-fed us the ‘messenger‘ word at MCF (Melbourne Christian Fellowship), in the kindly or most enthusiastic manner, but giving us the least wriggle room to live our lives in, were: David Falk (BCF) Murray Wylie (BCF) Keith Tucker (MCF) followed by people likeContinue reading “The Curse of the Golden Lampstand (Part I)”
Humanity was the forgotten variable at MCF
What MCF (Melbourne Christian Fellowship) forgot, as they taught their new theology and, dangerously, put it into practice, was the human factor. What I mean is that they thought that elders could just tell people to drop all their interests and plans (under threat of going to hell) and that we would all remain saneContinue reading “Humanity was the forgotten variable at MCF”
