When i was still very young, this was part of the disciplinary measures that was enforced in order to instill correction & proper morals. Really, the children that received some strokes back then were so troblesome & beyond what their parents alone could handle way back then. Hence, such children were referred to Church and dealt with accordingly.
Well, Pastor‘s interference helped tremendously to re-shapen the lives of those children cos they became better for it.
Were you flogged by your Pastor too?

Let me ask Acidosis. .
whoever banned him should unban right away.
Thanks.
