define cult: lots of churches can be considered "cults" if you twist the definition the right way.

you probably did recommend "heed", ideal? i'm a former Baptist, now Catholic, so I have no vested activity in protecting the denomination. yet i'm able to inform you from my very own experience which you're off base in this one. The Baptists church homes are far from "character cults"; for those, you may seem to the plenty-hyped no-specific-denomination "mega-church homes", the main popular of that are equipped around the personalities of their pastors. however the Baptists? No. person congregations could advance a pastime for their pastors, yet it quite is a much cry from cult habit. Been to a Baptist church at the instant? those human beings are all wearing Bibles for a reason; the observe of God is their authority, no longer the observe of Pastor Goodguy.

I couldn't tell from their website. However, how do they opperate? If you join and your sister does not, are your forbidden to talk to her? That is a sign of a cult. Cults do not want their members talking to outsiders, and often form group living.

It depends on your description of cult.
Conformed religion, in my opinion is cult like.

All churches are cults in the strictest sense of the word.

If their teachings are not solely from the Bible they are a cult. Hope this link will help you test what they are teaching.

I would bet it is. All churches are houses for cults, including the Vatican.
