When I thought about forgiveness I thought about my “enemies” who are UBF leaders. God helped me to forgive them. But there is one thing: I still don’t want to be with them, to see them in the street, to speak to them. I asked myself, why? The answer is that they do not repent, they are not my brothers in Christ. After leaving UBF I could understand The Lords prayer “Your kingdom come, your will be done on earth as it is in heaven”. I accepted Jesus as my king and God’s kingdom came to my life. As there is God’s kingdom in heaven in the Trinity, so God wants his kingdom to be in his church, among brothers. I found that the UBF chapter director devoted himself to destroy the kingdom of God in my life in order to build his own kingdom, where he is a king and I am an obedient slave. While studying Acts I saw that everyone among christians wanted to be with Paul, to stay with Paul, to live with Paul. Why? Because he was a brother for them in Christ. And you know everyone wanted to be with Jesus, full of grace and truth. I want to be with Jesus forever and I want to be with my brothers and sisters in Christ, forever. But I don’t want to be with UBF leaders even though I have forgiven them with God’s help. And I wouldn’t want to be with them until they accept God’s kingdom and become my brothers and sisters in Christ. That’s why I think that it is the Spirit’s testimony inside of me that the Lord also does not accept the UBF leaders into his Church and into his Kingdom. They don’t need the King, they are kings themselves, and very bad kings whatever their intentions might be. The Spirit is the Spirit of grace and love and forgiveness and also of brotherhood under one Christ and One Father. So the Spirit comes to a UBF member when he believes in Jesus. But then He is pushed out of his life every day through UBF “discipline” and “absolute obedience to one’s shepherd”.
