Devilish “Edge Church Ltd.” in Adelaide, Australia, covertly excommunicated a Christian who is absolutely innocent in relation to all excommunications by other churches, and is absolutely innocent in relation to this particular stage-focused ‘church’. Edge Church Adelaide declared that their church is worried that the innocent Christian is a “savage wolf”, and their church refused further communication.

Edge Church Ltd. in Adelaide, Australia, covertly excommunicated a Christian who is absolutely innocent in relation to all excommunications by hundreds of churches who have previously excommunicated the same Christian. The Edge Church in Adelaide provided no Biblical reason for their decision to covertly excommunicate, but Edge Church in Adelaide did refuse to welcome in reality, did refuse further communication, and did state that Edge Church are worried that this Christian is actually a "savage wolf" who speaks perversely, in their church’s reference to Acts 20:29.

Malevolence, inhumanity, lying and slandering is a primary conduct of most church leaders anywhere, and this particular stage-focused church accentuates this truth.

Edge Church Adelaide,

Hello.

What is your Edge Church reason for refusing to welcome, your Edge Church reason for refusing to communicate and to explain, and your Edge Church reason of excommunication of me?

Regards,

Edge Church Adelaide,

Your brave church has refused to communicate with me to explain your expressed fears and worries that I am a savage wolf who speaks perverse doctrine. It would appear that also Edge Church Adelaide, similar to your Edge Church in Melbourne who refused to welcome, has decided to covertly excommunicate me too.

Would your Edge church here in Adelaide find the moral courage to communicate or openly declare your ban of me from your so-called church, or are you simply intending to refrain from all communication with me without further specificity than allusions to my being a 'savage wolf' who speaks 'perverse doctrine'?

If you have banned me, then please also provide your reason.

Have you banned me from your 'church' because you fear that I might socialise with singles?

Regards,

Torsten Nenzen

Edge Church,

Have you bravely excommunicated me through refusal to communicate?

Have you banned me from your 'church' because you are worried that I am a savage wolf who speaks perverse doctrine?

Or have you banned me from your 'church' because you fear that I might socialise with singles?

Regards,

Torsten Nenzen

Edge Church,

Have you bravely excommunicated through refusal to communicate further? Have you banned me from your 'church' because you are worried that I am a savage wolf who speaks perverse doctrine? Or have you banned me from your 'church' because of your fear that I might socialise with singles?

Torsten Nenzen

Edge Church,

I asked a straight forward question to your church regarding Christian fellowship and relational opportunities. I carefully noticed in your initial email a deliberate evasion of a genuine welcome, which was confirmed in your delay to respond further, and cemented in your follow-up email with your words "if that goes well, we can continue this conversation further". Initially, you wrote "Connection is something we try to encourage at Edge as much as possible so I’d love to catch up with you and answer any questions you might have." I did not have any further questions. Now you have created many questions regarding you.

You come across as disingenuous; or typically false. I will be honest with you, in spite that your focus appears to be to manipulate and to disguise your true intent. Your words reflect dishonesty, although you might imagine that you have worded yourself cleverly.

You state that you are cautious that I am a "savage wolf" who speaks "perversely", in reference to Acts 20:29. If you are fearful that I am a heretic, then you should specifically inquire about my theology. If you are fearful of anything else that does not pertain to doctrine, then please declare specifically what your fear is with reference to a different verse of the Bible.

It is also clear that you do not propose a time/place for a chat.

Firstly, I advise that you discontinue to be dishonest (although you might perceive yourself as clever). You are currently merely false.

Secondly, if you are concerned about my doctrine, then you should ask specific doctrinal question which I can answer.

Thirdly, you allude that I might have impure motives. You express that you are worried that single Christians are interested in social opportunities with other single Christians. Please explain these worries in relation to Scriptures. Are you, and your local Edge church, opponents to Christian marriages?

You have indicated that you might intend to refuse to explain further your communication so far.

Please specify and ask me your doctrinal questions, and please explain your worry (and opposition) about Christian relationships.

Regards,

Torsten Nenzen

Hi Torsten,

I received both your emails. My initial email to you invited you for a catch up. My purpose was to get to know you better. The fact that you were reluctant to give any personal details was worrying. The fact that you only seem to be interested in “social opportunities” with singles is even more of a worry. As a true follower of Jesus Christ I am sure you will appreciate the need to be cautious because the Bible warns us to be watchful for “wolves” (Acts 20:29). I am trying to remain open to the possibility that your motives are pure and that your communication thus far has merely been worded poorly. So please, let’s catch up for a chat and if that goes well, we can continue this conversation further.

Sincerely,

Dave Scarallo | Minister

Edge Church Adelaide.

What are the relational opportunities at Edge Church?

Edge Church International.

Hello Dave Scarallo,

Thanks for your email.

Yes, I did fill out a ‘Get Connected’ card at my visit on Sunday Nov. 16, 2014, and handed that card to the person who was advised to receive the card.

As indicated on the card, I do seek social opportunities with other followers of Jesus Christ, especially occasions where there might also be others in a similar stage of life as singles.

No, I did not complete the card with information regarding my - age. The stage – as single – was emphasised. I also seek fellowship with Christians in the predominant 30’s and maybe including in the upper 20’s.

What are the relational opportunities at Edge Church International?

Regards,

Torsten Nenzén

Hi Torsten,

I’m writing this email to let you know that it was great having you visit with us on Sunday. I hope you were made to feel welcome, because it is our desire to express God’s generosity and hospitality to our community. In the card that he filled out for you, Michael indicated that you might be interested in attending a Connect Group. Unfortunately there is no date of birth on the card and it is a bit difficult to know how best to advise you.

Connection is something we try to encourage at Edge as much as possible so I’d love to catch up with you and answer any questions you might have. Just ask for me when you come again and maybe we can catch up with a cup of coffee. I look forward to meeting you in person.

Sincerely,

Dave Scarallo | Minister
