Michael Bachelard does another brilliant deep dive into the nefarious world of the Exclusive Brethren: "The politically connected sect known as the Plymouth Brethren Christian Church preaches a “hatred” for the world. Women are treated as second-class citizens and homosexuality is not tolerated .. Its followers, known to each other as
“saints”, believe Hales is “so close to the Lord Jesus that he can feel his heartbeat” .. Hales, who travels the world in a $20,000 per hour private jet, tells his flock to “charge the highest price to the worldly people” – including governments and other businesses – in a doctrine known as “spoiling the Egyptians”. In 2002 he preached: “The world is there for our using up of it … the world is there to take what we want from it, and leave everything we don’t want. Spoil the Egyptians as quick
and as fast as you can.” Let's hope their influence does not extend to the ATO!
