If somebody says "that's a cult via fact that is not a significant flow faith", or another defective reason, they're merely reflecting the mentality of people who rejected Jesus and his followers interior the 1st century. those early Christians have been the minority, and have been stated as a sect which at that element had the comparable unfavorable connotation via fact the notice cult. They have been additionally falsely accused many circumstances. Jesus warned his disciples that they may be no component to the international and hated by ability of the international. you won't be in a position to get handed the reality that this became prophesied. to that end if reality be told it would be a mark of genuine Christianity. however the fundies that are the main reprehensible are so a strategies from what Christian ability. If somebody spends time in this internet site making use of fake propaganda and slander they're so a strategies removed from what the Bible says; which condemns such strikes, God not at all approves of such despicable procedures. How dare they use the Bible as an excuse! those very ones would be rejected by ability of Christ for his or her lawless deeds!!! human beings misuse the Bible as an excuse to hate!

its not the religion, its the zealot. Christianity went through many black periods where misguided zealots chose to convert unbelievers through violence and to unjustly persecute people based upon a twisted understanding of the language in the Bible. But at the core of each of these terrible episodes was in actually the need to acquire wealth, lands, and political power. During these times humanity was thrust backwards, progress was handicapped, and a great deal of blood and treasure was lost. Jesus never taught this, quite the opposite. Islam and Christianity are both worldwide religions, but within the population of followers still exist those with black hearts and hidden agendas.one need look no further than Taliban, Al Queda, Mormonism and its poligamy/child molestation underpinnings, and the far right wing Christian Coalition who, if they optained the political power they seek, would be as bad or worse than Taliban.

If men pervert religion to serve their purposes is it the fault of religion or of man?
Killing people was probably going on before there even were religions. So why should religion take the hit? Put the blame where it lies! MAN!

i'm not sure i'd go quite as far as cult. this DOES make me wonder.
not only that, but let's look at some of the churches being built today?
do they NEED to have a church that can hold 30,000 people?
do you think that opulence is ANYTHING Jesus had in mind?
it's more about money and greed now.
i believe in SOMETHING, but definitely not what i see around me.

Blessed are ye, when men shall hate you, and when they shall separate you from their company, and shall reproach you, and cast out your name as evil, for the Son of man’s sake.
Rejoice ye in that day, and leap for joy: for, behold, your reward is great in heaven: for in the like manner did their fathers unto the prophets.
