While every word of this November 11, 2014, post Deception 101, from Tactics is true, I can’t help but cringe when I read them: “The practice of deception is not occasional or accidental in our church. It is a studied art. Pastor has spent years carefully crafting his words and ways to abide within the retaining … Continue reading Deception 101 (11/11/14)

How to Tell if Pastor is a False Teacher/Prophet (11/10/14)
There are definitely some Tactics’ posts where I find myself pondering how to approach my commentary. Just where do I start with a post that contains one quote, has a link to one video (now removed for violating You Tube’s terms of service), and concludes with Scripture? Regardless, let’s look at the opening quote: “If … Continue reading How to Tell if Pastor is a False Teacher/Prophet (11/10/14)
False Teachers Foretold (11/6/14)
Potentially unsafe groups or leaders "come off very nice at first, they go for vulnerable people who are looking for answers, lonely, what you'd call 'normal people.' They're very good at what they do and can get people to believe anything. You might think you'd never get taken in, but don't bet on it. " … Continue reading False Teachers Foretold (11/6/14)
The Wizard Revealed (11/1/14)
Hello! Long time, no post. I have mulled over this particular Tactic’s post for far too long. Tactics writes: Many have tried to do pastor’s bidding – to be restored to their families. They come and go with more burdens placed upon them. His judgments are capricious, unknowable, unjust. He stands in the pulpit, protesting … Continue reading The Wizard Revealed (11/1/14)
Guests Speak
Hi all, been a moment since my last post. Lots going on in my life, and I am sure in yours. Since leaving Calvary Temple, my life has had its fair share of ups and downs. Bob Scott would have you believe that just because you attend his cult, your life will be better than … Continue reading Guests Speak
They Went Out From Us, Because They Were Not Of Us (1 John 2:19) (10/27/14)
I was preparing to write a blog post on my research for the 1 John 2:19 Scripture passage used and abused by Calvary Temple cult leader Star R Scott; however, after much consideration, I’ve decided to let Tactics’ post stand as is. Why? Because the fact of the matter is that wolf Bob Scott never … Continue reading They Went Out From Us, Because They Were Not Of Us (1 John 2:19) (10/27/14)
Mark the Men (10/25/14) – ***Revised
I will never forget my reaction to reading this Tactics’ installment, “Mark the Men,” first posted in late October 2014. I am sure if someone were watching me as I read, they would have seen my jaw drop down and my eyes get wider and more open. Internally, I remember that my heart was racing … Continue reading Mark the Men (10/25/14) – ***Revised
Disclaimer (10/23/14)
Not quite a year into the Tactics of Calvary Temple blog, Tactics felt the need on October 23, 2014, to post a disclaimer. Actually, this post was more of an explanation for the silence rather than a disclaimer. But, perhaps this is merely semantics. Regardless, I am sure that by this time many people had … Continue reading Disclaimer (10/23/14)
Happy Rebirth Day To Me! (12/10/07)
December 10, 2007, is my second rebirth day...11 years ago today, Father, after opening my blind eyes and deaf ears, broke the chains that Wolf Bob Scott and the cult of Calvary Temple placed on my heart, and I left that awful, horrible place. Since then, my fellow ex-CT warriors - along with Sterling … Continue reading Happy Rebirth Day To Me! (12/10/07)
