Melbourne Christian Fellowship has become a house of psychobable

When is it that MCF (Melbourne Christian Fellowship) & BCF (Brisbane Christian a Fellowship) became houses of psychobable? Pre-1988, there always was an unnecessarily controlling element involving ‘deep and meaningfuls) and some suffered terribly under that regime. But post 1992-ish, Vic Hall brought in enormous amounts of navel-gazing and patriarchy that was simply un-Biblical. NotContinue reading “Melbourne Christian Fellowship has become a house of psychobable”

A culture of destructive presumption at MCF & BCF

Presumption is a well known sin in Christendom. But at MCF (Melbourne Christian Fellowship) they have made an art of it. Presumption is, put simply, assuming that God is 100% behind the way you are following God. It’s claiming to hear from God and being 100% sure of it. It’s assuming your way is theContinue reading “A culture of destructive presumption at MCF & BCF”

Why MCF & BCF are so dangerous

I’m trying to get back to a big picture here. These cult churches are so dangerous for two main reasons: 1. They teach & practice family breakups. 2. They teach & encourage abandonment of almost all plans, desires & stewardship. Family breakups The family breakups at MCF & BCF are so ugly & cruel. OfContinue reading “Why MCF & BCF are so dangerous”

What you did to us MCF & BCF

I want to convey what it felt like to live in MCF under the BCF word direction during 1992-2016. It was hell on earth if you actually had any dreams in work or ministry. So the messenger word of Vic Hall made you feel guilty about having even the slightest ambitions. You actually gradually diedContinue reading “What you did to us MCF & BCF”

The sin of MCF/BCF

It’s easy (on this blog of mine) to lose the forest for the trees. What exactly is it that MCF/BCF did to us and me in particular? And what does it mean? Well, for 20-25 years of my life I lost the best 20-25 years of my life in depressed, often near unbearable servitude andContinue reading “The sin of MCF/BCF”

I am genuinely shocked that our friends at MCF sided with the elders

Maybe I just think too highly of myself or something. Or of my wife. But I thought people at MCF knew we were genuine honest Bible-based obedient pious living hard working committed to the Lord committed to the leadership (to that point) beyond partiality & lies & all of that So I was shocked thatContinue reading “I am genuinely shocked that our friends at MCF sided with the elders”

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”

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?”

When did I know it was wrong?

When did I know the teaching and practice of guru headship was wrong? Interesting question. Because in some ways I knew the practice of it, by David Bonham and co, was wrong right from the start. So does that put the fault on me then? No, because MCF (Melbourne Christian Fellowship) taught just as strongly,Continue reading “When did I know it was wrong?”
