I once studied the Bible with the people of ICC church and got out.
I have escaped for five months now and am about to graduate from UK university, but last December I was studying the Bible with members of the ICC church. While studying the Bible, I felt suspiciously denied presumption (I felt it was an attack that I was denied because I was a Presbyterian), preached that they were a "true church" and even urged me to give up my dream by telling them to be my student instead of a historian. At the time, I was on winter vacation after the first semester of my senior year in England, and I was about to write my thesis for the second semester, which begins in January of the following year. Eventually, I had a fierce argument with them before Christmas, and I finally got out of it by telling the pastor of my existing church. Frankly, I felt like my life was being denied because I had been walking with God since birth while studying the Bible with them. I have attended church with my family since I was a baby, and they have denied my life and told me to "be baptized again at our church." I was so angry about it. Fortunately, I didn't go to the church in person, and I ended up conducting Bible study online, but has anyone else's life been ruined since I actually went to the church in person? And the ICC church members ask me every morning if I read the Bible and wrote a notebook, and it felt hard for me because it was winter vacation back then, because I wanted to take a break. I'm busy ahead of graduation, but I need time to rest, right? Reading the Bible is good, but at that time I had time to study before I wrote my graduation thesis on Central Asian History and sometimes I couldn't sleep until dawn. Oh, and I got out of them because I couldn't give up my faith in the Lord, but as a Presbyterian, I was so hurt that they made logical errors and attacked me with gaslighting. I felt so hurt because I felt denied my faith. Although I came out of studying the Bible with them for less than a month, can I say that this is a situation as a victim when I have had such an upset experience?
