For 20 years Derrick led our bible study and it was not a cult. He was however having an affair for a year while leading the bible study. I can only speak of the character of my former husband of 29 years and the woman that he had an affair with a year while still married. What’s the connection? They aborted a baby while they were teenagers. The other connection, she was the first one to say yes. I forgave him years ago when he confessed to me that he was with a black prostitute. She said yes too. This woman from Ohio (Beth, I think thats her name) spoke to my 80 year old mother and when my mother asked her why she was coming between her daughter and her son-in-law, Beth called her an “old Texas w***e”. She is a classless act. What type of woman gets involved with a married man? For 28 years we had a very loving relationship, full of laughter and were inseparable until Derrick went through his “mid-life crisis”. When a person makes statements “look at my hands, they look like my dad’s hands, old” and “look at my white hair and wrinkles”, this is indeed a mid-life crisis.

Derrick went against God’s commandment (not God’s suggestion) and committed adultery. Derrick’s idea was to do what ever his flesh wanted and then he would ask God for forgiveness and He would have to forgive. God said that He would not be mocked and that is exactly what they did. God is not there to “hop and fetch” for you while you go against Him.

Two weeks before Derrick snuck out of the house taking all the gold and coins and other moneys, he was crying and told me that he could not picture his life without me. After he moved out, he would come over almost everyday to see me. Sometimes at 3:00 A.M. because he said that he heard me calling him. It was a very bad time for me and very confusing. God saw everything that Derrick did. He hurt one of God’s children, really badly and this is the character of this person and the person he dwells with. As far for the comment of staring at your child, that was not the person that I knew and believe children are safe around him.
