Spiritual abuse is running rampant in the church. Victims of abusive church authority structures may not even realize what they are enduring until they escape its grip. Spiritual abuse is often subtle. Christian cult leaders don’t always operate like Jim Jones. Controlling ministries tend to hide behind the guise of spiritual coverings. And far too many outsiders are not willing to even question the messages and practices of such churches. It takes lovers of truth with spiritual discernment to recognize the sometimes-subtle signs of abusive churches. And it takes courage to confront it.

You are so very precious. When I was abused 20 years ago, I absolutely knew it was wrong. I saw my heart shredded it looked impossible to be put back together. In my wounded state, I confronted the pastor very very harshly. Shortly after, God told me that I needed to repent and apologize. Because I chose to forgive, I was able to write a very touching letter to him. How you reacted reveals the beauty in your heart. I ran into him about 10 years later. What a magnificent encounter. He was never as bad as your apostle. I saw love in his eyes for me. He said that he often thinks of me and prays for me. My heart had changed towards him also. I wonder how he’s doing now.
Yes, this is very helpful! I appreciate you exposing this and your honesty! I declare and decree that the Saul’s, all across America, are being removed in the mighty name of Jesus .. Recently, I have been very impressed upon by the holy spirit to pray the Saul’s out of the american church. Remove provision Lord in the mighty name of Jesus. Father send the David’s in to replace the Saul’s in the mighty name Of jesus Lord. Let the David’s arise Lord… Let your church shine father let… your Glory manifest in the churches that are after your own heart Lord!
I have experienced emotional, mental and spiritual abuse and am still experiencing it. I have not contacted these people, but their trick now is to gather as much information from you through mind infiltration and control. You can not even go to some prayer telephone lines because they may use information against you in order to sue you. Through this tactic they know possibly even my banking information so they can steal it from my account lying and saying that I gave them the information. I know several churches that practice this through witchcraft. One pastor tried to kill me in order to get money afforded to me from my ex husband. This has to stop. Their ministry is no longer important to me. They stopped serving the Lord and they are only serving themselves. Be careful. They are even setting up scenarios in order to sue innocent people.
THANK YOU FATHER FOR THIS GOOD TEACHING! I ASK THAT YOU WOULD TAKE JENNIFER DEEPER, HIGHER, AND WIDER, IN YOU! PLEASE PRAY FOR ME BECAUSE I HAVE COME OUT OF CHURCH. PCM <3 🙂
