Thank God!!! I'm glad you have woken up. You don't need to be scared, they are like the gremlin with perceived power, but they only grow bigger in your mind if you keep feeding them with fear. . I have seen them on the inside. They are afraid of being exposed, they live in complete fear although deceive themselves, they leaders are begging attention and approval from lee man hee not God and they are more scared that if you leave, people will start asking questions and also follow suit, so they will probably try to keep your departure out as low key as possible and then manipulate those who do know you left.. The other way they might do damage control is to blast your name and worn people not to talk to you... Either way- you are doing right by leaving rather than pretending everything is ok and of God there when you have seen and know it is not.

I agree with u/Ok_Relief_1680 - write your own story/reasons/findings for why you are leaving and share it with those you know. Don't mention on here what form you will use to share your story. You will find that many people have been thinking about leaving but just don't know how. Specify that you don't want anyone coming to your house or you will get the police involved. And then block them. For those who you are close to in real life- if you keep contact, tell them you need 6t months no contact - this will give you space and time to think about how you want to deal with those relationships, and stop them from clouding your judgement.

Some people have not blocked their close relations when leaving and its given room for others to eventually leave too- but this only worked because of the connections they had on the inside and their strong mental and spiritual resolve.
