    Hmmm. Well Ive been nibbling around the ?Exclusive Brethren? cult again and
     found a website where ?Ex
		 - Exclusive Bs? gather to chat. I found a guy in
     Melbourne on the site ( the cult has a big enclave 
		in Melbourne) and so I 
    Emailed him with an intent to maybe meet up and pick his brains about life 
    inside the cult.Maybe even borrow some of their doctrinal books if he had some.
    Heres his response:
		 
     
    ?Hi Jim, Thanks for your message. In order to assist you in your endeavours I 
    would need hundred
		 of hours with you face -to -face like. 
		If I thought that 
    the time spent would result in the 
		salvation of your soul, or that you would 
    come to know and love the Lord Jesus, I wouldn't mind
		 spending thousands of
     hours with you. If its just to appease your curiosity, well thats a 
    different story. 
		If you would like to meet up with me next Sunday morning 
    at the Regent Baptist 
		Church at 10.30 AM, you would be most welcome. 
    and that possibly could start the ball rolling.?
     
    ?Regent Baptist Church?!?!   I think not.
		 
    Do you think he believes my "soul" is lost??

    God is obviously calling you back into his busom. Go now. Go directly to church. Do not pass Go. Do not collect $200.

    .."If I thought that you would come to know and love the Lord Jesus"...

    BARF. Just what I need. More social engineering. More mass psychology.

    They might do you some good Refiner go there and tell us what happens. Most Baptists have a bible study before the church service where you can make a contribution to the study. I dunno about the exclusive ones though. Barry

    It?s been at least three or four days since I laughed this hard!

    A hundred hours of face to face time, huh? Just to see if your butt is worth saving. Oh man! That's rich!!

    Keep us posted, RF. Please do.

    If I thought that 
    the time spent would result in the salvation of your soul , or that you would 
    come to know and love the Lord Jesus , I wouldn't mind spending thousands of
     hours with you. If its just to appease your curiosity, well thats a 
    different story.

    Well, that about sums it up eh?
