I see a major split in the coming years. This will not be a reform group being outcast; I see a major split into UBF Korea and UBF everyone else, or something like that. UBF leaders will need to choose between the two paths presented in the blue book– hold onto and promote Lee’s legacy or be a testimony of God’s grace and love to the nations (as presented by Barry). I don’t think Sarah Barry’s direction means rejecting Lee totally; it just means giving up control over people and letting go of the past.

Around the same time, Samuel Lee must have introduced all the other cult-like “training” methods which have been mentioned in the open letter of 7 senior shepherds. It was the time when Samuel Lee took over the ministry from Sarah Barry and started to transform it into a cult and infecting it with his special cult “spirit”. The practice of weekly sogam writing and sharing (by ordinary members, not by leaders) is part of that spirit, it is one of the important instruments for controlling and manipulating people in UBF. That’s why they stress its importance and don’t want to give it up.
