FillMeUpJesus! It's clear what your motives were and that you don't understand what's gone on here. I just stepped in to be a supportive voice for everybody else as I know people who attended this place and feel sense of duty to use my voice, knowledge and experience to help, especially as I was in a very similar cult in Liverpool too. If you're intimidated by my knowledge a

FillMeUpJesus! you don't start a reasonable conversation by trying to convince people they are wrong from the outset and dismissing their experience. You set the tone for it. If you genuinely wanted to understand people's experience you could have arranged to meet somebody for coffee and listened to their story. Or sensitively asked what brought people to use the term cult and expl

Fillmeupjesus! Are you qualified to see anything culty in KCF? And I'm happy to identify myself, here's my linkedin page: Nobody should have to identify themselves or feel pressured to though. This is a website to support people who have been in cults (which includes destructive churches, pyramid schemes, MLMs, mainstream churches that have pockets of cult behaviour, abusive

'Fillmeupjesus!' Jonestown was a very extreme cult and not all cults go to that extreme. There are at least 500 cults operating in the Uk and I get calls from people from many types of cults each week. Pentecostal groups are some of the most common cult groups in the UK though. However, I can see there is little point in commenting looking at that last post. I think you're

Hi Everybody, I would just ignore this person, It's a typical insensitive religious response to spiritual abuse in churches. I see it all the time and some of you know I work counselling people in this area (www.tothinkagain.co.uk) I'm a Christian but Christian religion is apalling at coping with spiritual abuse in churches and seems to have a stock response: 'You need to

Yeah, mind control is horrible. It can still have a grip on people years after they leave. I've been recovering from the mind control of my group for the last three years and still feel its effects most days. Regaining your identity (or forming your real one, if you are the second generation) is tough work and involves a lot fo facing fear. I'd love to chat with somebody about K

C3 churches are bad news. I was part of Hope City C3 church in the UK. It is a cult. There are lots of scandals about C3 if you search the internet. It's all prosperity teaching, controlling behaviour and worshipping leaders.
Forum: Destructive Churches

Strange stories like this are common in charismatic evangelical churches I have found. Audacious church Manchester has a lot of odd stories around it too, which isn't surprising because their parent church, Hope City, is just a cult. It's only when I joined this website I started finding out about how common this behavior of pastors is.

Hey everybody I wasn't part of KCf, however I know people who attended for a short while. I was part of another 'christian' abusive church in Liverpool called hope City and then when I escaped I went on to study coercive control at masters level, specializing in understanding cults and mind control etc. I'd really like to connect with other ex-cult members locally, what
