From the same people in UBF who load people down with burdens they can hardly carry, you also hear things like "go to Jesus," "look at Jesus," "grow in Jesus." They try to enlist Jesus in a twisted game of "good cop/bad cop" or "abusive father/comforting mother." They abuse you and then you are supposed to "go to Jesus" to recover and then come back for more abuse.
