Jan says:
What word of comfort was offered to those who had believed the nonsense?
The GB never apologize and they never repent for their mistakes (SINS). I have never heard of the GB openly confessing their sins as Christians are instructed. (James 5:16) Their sins are many and yet they do not repent. Certainly they don't resemble Christians but a corporation trying to protect its image and assets.
James 5:16
Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous man is powerful and effective.
