Doctrine aside, UBF is bad because many, many, people have been hurt and UBF fails to recognize this, to do anything about it, or to protect its members from unaccountable, authoritarian leadership. It is as simple as that.

And Karcher wouldn't even realize that the Word of God, a quote from Jesus Himself is "What you have done to the least of these, you have done to me", profoundly states that any abuse against any Christian in UBF is an affront against the Lord Jesus Christ and CANNOT BE JUSTIFIED with anything.

It's simple: the Bible says clearly that we should treat others with respect and do unto everyone as we would do unto Christ, the Bible even says that anyone who "causes to stumble" any "little one" (however you interpret that) - it would have been better for them had they never been born.
But UBF brushes it aside under "So, you better reconcile with the person who hurt you" (rather than saying: the person who hurt you better reconcile with you).
Those who DID GET stumbled have NOTHING to apologize for, those who DID DO stumble others should be crying in tears to the Lord and beg on their knees for forgiveness for the sake of their own souls - not come around "You must forgive me, otherwise you're being unspiritual".

Brian, this is the revelation of the pure, untainted Word of God: those who stumble others are in a BAD position, it were better for themselves they had never been born.
And no matter what you say to defend such people, the Word of our Lord in that issue STANDS.

In Christ,
Mike K.
