This is the kind of stuff that scares the crap out of me. "God gave PFAL". I don't think so, God gave the world.............what makes anyone think that he chose one group, just one group, a very very very very small group, to "comletely understand" the "REAL" Bible........................makes me wanna run away, and tell everyone I know to run away from PFAL and any branches of PFAL as fast as possible.

I don't send them money, she was sending her money to that guy, but is now sending it someplace else. Just another trigger for me to go OH NO. Continuing to freak out. My mom has her prayer group praying that I'll find the words to help her. I'm praying.

I just wanted to say thank you to everyone who posted a reply. Im freaking out a little bit at the moment while at the same time trying to remain calm, its sort of working, but not really. I just feel a bit impotent at the moment. She's 18, so legally my hands are tied. She will be home this weekend. Ive talked with her father whose brining her down to me from the airport. We are going to present a united front, and just let her know we care, we're concerned, and see if we can get her to read from the sites Ive found. I will continue to research and read. From some responses, I'm wondering if I jumped too soon, im just really really confused. I do have another question tho. She told me this morning that she was broke bla bla ba, and that she was going to have to take her abundent sharing and tithe and put it back in the bank so no checks would bounce. Also, she tells me she was sending her money to this Chris Geer or Greer guy. Who is he? Is that common? She said she stopped sending it to him because she wasn't comfortable doing so and is now sending is someplace in Tennessee. Just looking for direction here.

My daughter moved to Chicago in June of 2006 and is currently living in what they term "the girls house". When she first began going to fellowships I wasn't concerned. I was raised a Baptist and I thought hey, they are studying the bible, what can be wrong with that. Lately, she and I have been having conversations that completely worry me. Apparently, this group of children (ages 17 to 24) have been getting materials from the Belizian BRC to avoid copyright infringement so that they can hear the teachings of the guy who started The Way International, I don't remember his name right now. Also, they are going to a youth advance in Ohio next weekend. Their "leader" has told them first that he doesn't want them to read this teaching, which by the way I have no problem with after I researched the guy, and secondly, that if they go to this advance in Ohio, he is kicking them all out of the group. Apparently the group they are going to is part of PFAL. I don't know much about that and haven't been able to find much. Anyhow, I don't know how to reach her and convince her to just come home. I am scared, and I want to help her without alientating her. What do I do? How can I help? Please anyhow who can give me some information I would be so grateful.
