Due to worsening medical conditions, I've not been visiting here for a long time. Today, I thought I would stop here after returning from a medical care facility to see if there were anything of improvement on the 2&2 ministry cult front.
Today, what is on this site to read simply reveals to me that sad news has not improved... It is good to learn however of those of you who have courageously dealt with sins which not so much should even have to be mentioned once among believers. It was also hopeful to learn of Lyle's apparent willingness to embrace a need for change in how such things are dealt with amongst that cult.
For those who seem to believe child rape is vastly worse than other child sexual abuse, the real damage from both lies in the psychic of the abused, and this I know from my own first hand personal experience as a totally innocent victim while a child experiencing abuse from an older child. There simply is no need to know details of any such case as posted to these threads beyond sexual abuse, for the damage is often as severe from one form to another, though surely physical pain would make such abuse even worse.
To those of you who attempt in any way to minimize sexual abuse of children in any form, SHAME ON YOU. In doing so, how are you NOT participating in another man (or woman) 's sins? Do not each person have enough of their own sins to answer for, without participating in those of others? Even then, surely it is the residual left upon innocent minds which carries past forgiveness' cleansing.
May each of us carry the best interest of other's first in our hearts and minds, and above all selfish interests. Certainly the interests must be paramount of children who most often have been taught to trust adults explicity.
All my life, from my earliest memories, I have cared for the younger. It is hard not to resent the pall those who have betrayed the trust of those younger cast upon everyone who's love and care has been pure. Now suspicion will fall upon even those of purest intents.
Sincerely,
Dennis
