Woking man found guilty of multiple non recent sex offences

A 78-year-old Woking man has been found guilty at Guildford Crown Court today (Friday 28, November) of multiple non recent sexual offences against two victims aged between nine and 16-years-old.

Allan Cundick of Merrivale Gardens, Goldsworth Park was found guilty, by a jury of seven men and five women, of six counts of indecent assault against two girls between 1970 and 1992 contrary to section 14 of the 1956 Sexual Offences Act.

The court had also heard that Cundick admitted to two further counts of indecent assault against a further two women - one aged between 46 and 47-years-old and a second aged 21-years-old between 1994 and 2004 contrary to section 14 of the Sexual Offences Act.

He was remanded in custody to be sentenced on 15, January 2015.

Detective Chief Inspector Bex Smith, of the Surrey Police Public Protection Investigation Unit said: "This was a difficult case for all concerned and the victims are to be commended for their tenacity and bravery in helping bring Cundick to justice.

"I would encourage anyone who has concerns about potential sexual abuse whether current or historic to contact us.”            end of quote.                                                                      *****

Allan Cundick, a retired schoolteacher, was a leading member of the Ash Vale Brethren assembly, Surrey, and an author of several theological books.

The damage done to victims of abuse is often far more than physical. Distress was increased by another leader among the Brethren who sought to discourage a victim from reporting Cundick’s abuse. He is Ian Jackson of Marine Hall, Eastbourne.

I commented on Jackson’s attempts to thwart the course of justice in my blog, Waymarks.blogspot.com which brought me a visit from his buddy, John Scarsbrook.

Scarsbrook is Secretary of the magazine Precious Seed. He came from Killamarsh to Luton to warn me that if I did not remove my blog from the internet, then Jackson might sue me for libel. I advised him I was merely commenting on news already on the public domain.

I asked Scarsbrook three times what would happen if similar complaints of abuse were made in his assembly. He told me such would be dealt with by the relevant authority. That is, himself.

We think there are many young women  yet to come forward who have been abused by their church elders and bible teachers.

We make this public in order that it can be prevented in the future.

I know A Cundick personally. We were at school together and in fellowship together in the same assembly in Luton, from 1947 to 1970

Take Warning

1Co 1:17  For Christ sent me not to baptize, but to preach the gospel: not with wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be made of none effect.

       We preach Christ crucified.

The Hebron Hall, Bicester, Assembly is now preaching a gospel which is no gospel.

Recently, in the Bucknell Village Hall, Mervin Hall, who describes himself as an economist,  preached with much wisdom of words the philosophy of Christian Hedonism.

The title of his “talk” was “Why are we richer but less satisfied?” this appeared to be aimed at all present, believers and unbelievers alike. The subject is not found in Scripture, however.

John Piper in his book with this title promotes Christian Hedonism, the pursuit of happiness as found in God and this is the theme of New Evangelicalism.

Those uncertain of this subject would do well to download a free copy of David Cloud’s book “John Piper and Christian Hedonism” (www.wayoflife.org )

There is considerable heresy being promoted at Hebron Hall Bicester. Born again believers are strongly advised to avoid the place.
