But my point was that there are many trainees who gained Christ from the FTT and minister Christ today as positive products of the training and that categoric condemnation of the FTT is is untenable.

This would seem to confirm my understanding that ministering the local church culture and the Recovery program is basically the same damn thing as "ministering Christ".
P.S. Does this guy's elder daddy "minister Christ" to others, while his son bounces around

outside the ark? I bet he does. I bet it's very "positive", too.
