From Amish Shunning to Pentecostal Excommunication

John talks with Harvey, a former Amish man who describes growing up in a closed religious community, milking cows by hand, singing centuries-old hymns in German, and believing that leaving the Amish meant eternal danger. Harvey explains how reading Scripture in context led him to question inherited rules, man-made traditions, thought blocking, and the fear-based identity built around separation from the outside world. The conversation follows Harvey's journey from Amish life into Pentecostalism, his later disillusionment with another system of man-made doctrine, and the emotional cost of shunning, family loss, and rebuilding life afterward. John and Harvey also discuss the similarities between Amish separation, Branhamite isolation, Pentecostal control structures, personality suppression, and the difficult process of learning to see people clearly after leaving high-control religion. ______________________ Weaponized Religion: From Christian Identity to the NAR: Paperback: https://www.amazon.com/dp/1735160962  Kindle: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DCGGZX3K  ______________________ - Support the channel: https://www.patreon.com/branham  - Visit the website: https://william-branham.org
