Hi folks I'd like to add my best wishes to everyone for Christmas and the New Year too. OSCR are taking an inordinate length of time to complete their investigations but I hope that means they are taking SMC strongly to task. The site is rather vague about the ongoing process so it's not easy to say whether the delay should be viewed optimistically from our point, or not. I hope

Hi folks Great to see you again, CovLass, as always you make some very astute and insightful comments and I couldn't agree more with you. Petitor, on the matter of Miss Jennings, I wasn't aware that she was receiving any payments from SMC but surely she must have been the only one? Apart from donations to missionaries and Tear Fund I had believed that no one was receiving any pay

Hi folks, The Petitor, some very excellent information you have provided and some very interesting points you have made, thank you. Gave me food for thought. Truthseeker, yes I remember you posting that paragraph before and it certainly is taking OSCR an extraordinary length of time to reach any conclusions. One can only assume that they are giving SMC the benefit of the doubt and allowin

Hi folks Happy survivor, thank you for sharing this with us and we wish you all the best in the Lord. It's a pity though that Ms. Rutherford did not take the time to apologise to you for the hurt and confusion caused by the leaders of the church. In my mind this makes you a far more gracious person than the leaders themselves, who should be living in God's grace constantly. Ther

Hi folks Yes thanks to rrmoderator for the restoration of lost data and indexing in Google again. At least we're back where we were after all the hard work of the posters here. I'm sure that the leaders of SMC were proclaiming how God had answered their prayers by silencing us but now they'll have egg on their chins trying to explain why God changed his mind. :-) Happy Su

Hi folks It's good that you got some response, Happy Survivor, but I know exactly the kind of response you received and, as you point out, there is and will probably never be any reciprocation on the part of the SMC leaders. As always, they will remain unaccountable for any hurt or wrong-doing to yourself because, as we all know, 'they never move without the blessing of God',

Hi folks! Happy Survivor I was really touched reading your post. I understand exactly how you feel and I also applaud your decision. These are feelings many of the people I know have had on leaving SMC. I yo-yoed for a bit too because I felt 'wrong' and began to think that I couldn't reach God and the presence of the Holy Spirit without the aid of those in SMC. First and f

Hi Rensil Good to see you. I'm not really surprised that SMC are rushing to show how charitable they are. I don't think they have any choice when they're trying to impress the OSCR and keep their charitable status. I wonder how long it will last though in the event of a favourable decision by OSCR? Will they keep involving outside organisations in their activities, or wi

Hi Seekingsusan Thanks for that, it does show that at least some people know about the Grace of God. It's such a pity that I honestly can't see that happening from the SMC platforms. But who knows? God does work in mysterious ways and wouldn't it be amazing if the leaders of Struthers Memorial Church got a change of heart? I'm not sure about holding my breath for

Yes, I would like to add my support to that too. It has been a long time since we appeared in Search Engine searches when we used to regularly appear on the first page.

Hi Truthseeker Thanks for letting us know but I don't think the length of time taken by OSCR is really something to be celebrated by SMC, I'm sure the OCSR folks know when they're been given the run-around. Fortunately senior members of OSCR have been following this thread for some months BEFORE they began their investigation so they are well aware of all posts and the proble

Hi folks I'm not sure if things are quiet because there isn't much else to be said that hasn't already been discussed or if perhaps some previous posters and readers have not been able to find the forum again since the domain switch.

Hi all I've been looking to see if OSCR have posted anything yet regarding Struthers Memorial Church but it seems the investigation is still ongoing.

Hi folks YES, Happy Survivor and Rensil, this is exactly where I'm coming from. The gifts of the Holy Spirit, as I read it in the Bible, are given to you to open your spiritual eyes to connect with the souls of every living being on the planet. This way you can speak to all sorts of different people and spread the word about the human connection to the spirit or soul, if you prefer.

Hi folks Sorry, Rensil, I think you misunderstood me a little. I wasn't suggesting that baptism in the Holy Spirit was made up by SMC, I know the Bible talks about this and I know that some people have had genuine experience of this. What I was suggesting was that there were more people who claimed to be so baptised than actually had the true experience of it. In SMC you know that

Hi folks The reason we have not had any answers to our burning questions on this forum is because the leaders of Struthers Memorial Church CANNOT answer these questions without damaging the hold they have over current members.
