in a way sooo unworthy...as the older generation was too misled & blind & provided the space for the evils to take place...though not by me personally...still it took me until 1992 to cut all the supporting & tithing...way too long...I will write to you...precisely about the fear/scare-angel of leaving.
The(ir) [knowingly?unknowingly?...for for everything you can find a Bible verse...jerking it out of context] scheme is simple:...TF is the best...where God provides the very best...if people want to leave...they reject the very best...and will face the consequences of such "sad" rejection in their life (or later...all ashamed in the resurrection...or whatever) sounds like powerful reasoning...but where does it say, that TF is good & right on, the very best??...it's a super false assumption...therefore since the premise/assumption/selfassessment of TF is wrong...therefore the conclusion is wrong & of no
effect.

I mean we're all out here since decades..I experienced sounder faith...than ever before...actually in many ways my health improved...something I might share here some other time.So the decision was never ever a real loss ...to the contrary!!...not even spiritually...pls. convey that to her & I also will do my level best about that.She needs friends and support...some place of usefulness, but with a precious child, this is already a healing balm/such important incentive, goal to live for, like I experienced also with my children.
For me it were my parents...I didn't deserve their faithfulness after all the way I treated them...recently my mother died...so I am also having to dedicate time for the funeral preperation...the "bureaucratic side of death" too...

I can only return the compliment...you must be a very caring person...& that's what she needs...I hope she also has some other caring relatives in the real world...
