This is not the first or second incidence of pastors who exploit their congregations for their own gains. Many people have turned religion into their own personal business where they exploit the congregation to get more money and even political mileage and to fulfill their own selfish gains. Such believers are in for a shock when they realize they have believed in a lie.
HOPCC top leadership has been exposed to be callous and ruthless in their attempt to reach their ends, which mostly is more financial gain. They have thrown their own pastors out of the churches when they did not seem eager to comply with their policies of exploiting the people they serve. They have made mockery of the church as the body of Christ and all that is pure and holy.
To most of these followers, years of exploitation as have turned them into bitter and disillusioned people. This is why they have set up various forums to warn people of what they are getting into when joining this church. It is safe to say that this is one sham and that its preachers have been shamed in broad daylight. This is why they have setup web sites and many other forums for public advocacy to talk about their experiences.
A lot of bad things happen in the dark when people are not watching. People have talked of being bullied into doing things they did not approve of and their opinion being disregarded. The top administration of the church twisted their arm by threatening to excommunicate them and because they have built their faith and lives on the church they choose to stay.
There is a section which says that this institution is a sect. These cannot be ruled out as being untrue. The point here is that the pastoral in this place of worship are pretenders and have used the cathedral to enrich themselves. This has resulted in the flock persecution because they know they will not be punished and they can take their loyalty with them.
After the humiliation from the flock and other people, the men of cloth have used websites, and other media to reach out to everyone. They claim that they can salvage the place of worship and that they mind about their parishioners. Though you cannot know where the truth lies, these men of cloth need to be heard. You never know if they can change.
The church is supposed to be an epitome of hope and peace and love, an indication of all that is good and pure in this world. This is why the truth about house of praise Christian churches was received with such trepidation and it caused great wrath. The media was of course there to spread the bushfire and make things even worse for them. In the end, only God will judge what is right and what is wrong with all humans.
