"...most people here leave the church for one tiny supposed error on the part of the Church "

It is sad how many people here sit behind their computers and spew lies. What is even sadder is that most people here leave the church for one tiny supposed error on the part of the Church and before you know it, they're no longer attending any church.

This was a comment made on the following story:  The Living Church of God Needs 377 Page Manual To Tell Ministers How To Behave from April 7, 2015.

For most people who have left the church, it is certainly more than some tiny "supposed" error on the part of the church.   Errors do not necessarily drive people away from church, but spiritual, sexual and mental abuse certainly does.

Be Kind

Yes, the phrase “BE KIND” sums up what many religions are all about.  One exception is the Armstrong COG culture where you will experience love and acceptance only as long as you are loyal to the group and its leaders.

On the other hand, disagreement and asking questions “in a wrong attitude” will get you kicked out or frozen out.  Impure motives will be implied against you.  You will be called names.  Once you find yourself on the outs, it is near impossible to be readmitted.  

This lacking of love goes back to the days when HWA ran WCG.  Today, it has developed into a dysfunction that is now ingrained in the very DNA of so many of the offshoots of Armstrongism.   

Matthew 5, 6, and 7 are occasionally read but seldom implemented.
