It seems to me that UBF folks would rather discuss ANYTHING but the abuse in UBF. If you listen to some UBF folks, they paint the picture of former members rabid with hate and anger and burning with a desire for revenge. People gnashing their teeth with venom. I will not allow myself to be painted with such an image.

The truth is that UBF people cannot stand the calm and thoroughly reasoned, and Biblical objections of former members so they must conjur up an ugly and nasty characterization for themselves to reject.

It is precisely because of the reasonableness, the Biblical nature of and the clarity of the arguments against UBF abuse that is so devastating.

Please do not make me into something I am not. The truth is that I love many people in UBF and the many things I did in UBF. What I dislike is the fact that my ministry was hijacked by people who put people ahead of Christ, the Gospel, the Bible, and Jesus' sheep.


For what it is worth, I hereby forgive UBF people for their abuse and spiritual neglect of God's people and their failure to address same. Now, let's discuss the real issues!
