Recently we had the privilege of sitting down to speak with Nathan and April Marquis, former members of a New IFB church. Nathan shares his experience of being excommunicated by pastor Jonathan Shelley, who was not satisfied with the sincerity of his apology for statements made on social media. We consider the unbiblical nature of this display of pastoral "authority", as well as the marks of a cult which are evident in the New IFB Movement. We also look at how the New IFB condemns nearly every other Christian group as being "unsaved", yet another mark of a cult. Nathan and April discuss their experience with the Mennonite and Amish of Pennsylvania during a recent vacation, and finding true believers among them. We encourage others in the New IFB, or any other extremist group, to consider the unbiblical, controlling nature of the movement and get out. A portion of the conversation between Nathan and Pastor Jonathan Shelley is included at the end of the video.
We also announce our hiatus from You Tube, as the busy summer season and responsibilities force us to back off from video production. Much has been said and taught about regarding extreme Fundamentalism on this channel, and the material will remain on You Tube for the benefit of those searching for a way out and recovering from the experience. Those wishing to contact pastor Dollar may do so at jeffreybdollar@yahoo.com. The church web site is Cbcportage.org.
