A cult is a group that controls your thinking. If you think differently or have a different opinion they will pounch on you like you were a bug.

Many times they have a charismatic leader who people look up to and never question.

It has nothing to do with doctrine. A favorite cult tactic is to accuse anyone they disagree with as being a cult.

Not everyone who belongs to these groups are guilty of cult activity. Most of them are victims/

Watch out for any organization where you can not ask a question. Cults especially like to emphasise external things like how you dress and what you eat and drink. They get really bent out of shape on nonessentials such as whether your kid sees Harry Potter or goes trick or treating.

Most cults will fail to tell you about the love and grace of God.

Peace to all.

Dennis
