You have a few errors in your post, but I will focus on this ONE. I joined the COG, not aware of the "hidden" doctrines of Moses David. I took the group at face value. Some tried to warn me that there was more than met the eye, but I was too stubborn to listen. For a few years, I was happily oblivious to how the leaders were behaving. I'm thankful that due to their fear of being found out, they hid their orgies and jeolousies from the ranks and file. But when I did become aware of these things, it was too late for me. I was already indoctrinated. Now when the COG became TF, virtually all remained the same. In fact, the way that I remember it is when the COG became TF is when child molestation was put into practice more fully and completely. So, from my perspective, TF was far more sinister than the COG. And that's NO rumor, Jeb. I was there.
Now to address your accusation of "hate" coming from us. I can't speak for all, but I have worked through my bitterness with Moses David, and his family. I don't concern myself with them other than to occasionally expose those doctrines that were the most harmful and heretical. THAT, Jeb, is something that SHOULD concern you, if you consider yourself to be a Christian.
Please do try to relax and share with us what beliefs of TFI are the most beneficial to you and others. Tell us what they believe and teach about Jesus. I don't believe that others will attack you, but will respond with respect.
