yes, you are absolutely right. Once people join, the fellowship thinks it inconceivable that God would EVER call someone to go somewhere else.......which is all very convenient because it then makes it possible to bully people who want to leave by saying they are in rebellion against God.

And because these good people love God, they fear being regarded by others as ungodly and so stay to prove they are good christians.
