Zeal and love for God are good things. I think many people in UBF really love Christ and want others to love him too. However, they are not always mature in the way they go about doing it.

This is true of other groups as well. Once I knew a fellow who belonged to another more-or-less normal denomination. He got a new job and when he learned the company had a prayer meeting he was excited to join. However, he freaked out when he saw them praying in tongues, so he started screaming and yelling at them about how bad of an abomination it was. So, he got fired.

Like Jesus, mature Christians do not freak out at unbelievers who say unbelieving or doubting things. They just need to learn that, and you might be one of the people who will help them to learn. However, God is using it to make you think about Christ.

If it were me, I would ignore their immaturity.
