Is UBF really a “Bible fundamentalist” organization?
Is UBF really a “Bible fundamentalist organization,” as the German newspaper “Süddeutsche Zeitung” wrote in a 8/23/2002 article? Or should UBF be classified with the “word fundamentalism” groups, as the cult commissioner of the German Protestant church in Rhineland suggests in his book “Im Labyrinth der Seelenfänger” (“In the maze of the soul catchers”)? Outsiders to UBF may get the impression that UBF is a “Bible fundamentalist organization,” but this label is misleading, as it gives the impression that the Bible is read “too much” or taken “too seriously” in UBF. The real problem is that, although the Bible is read much in UBF, it is read in a one-sided, prejudiced and false way. Furthermore, the leaders in particular are clearly showing through their behavior that the opposite is true, that they do not take the Bible seriously, but only use it to further their own agenda, interpreting the Bible arbitrarily.
