Pastoral Spiritual Abuse

I was shocked when I read these. These are screenshots of some posts from a private UPCI pastors blog on facebook. They are discussing (gossiping) and reprimanding saints who have simply left their churches (because of spiritual abuse). I am so glad that I am a part of one of the handful of UPC churches that is thriving and doesn't rule their people.

I have blurred the names for obvious reasons... and they are out of order too.

Re: Pastoral Spiritual Abuse

I really missed the spiritual abuse part in these posts.
Did not see it.

This is stupid. Are you part of this private group? If so, it's pretty sleazy to post private conversations on this public forum, regardless of you editing the names.

Go somewhere else with this trash.

Re: Pastoral Spiritual Abuse

Hilarious. These guys are buffoons. They can't understand that the world has changed. No one is buying what they're selling. They never look inward. Every trouble is externally induced.

12 year olds know that nothing shared on the web is private.
