I use some of these when deprogramming/ counseling people out of cults. Enjoy:
1. According to Jesus, who gave the law to ancient Israel? (Jn. 7:19)
2. What is the will of the Father? (Jn. 6:40)
3. Is a Christian dead to sin? (Rom. 6:2, 11; I Peter 2:24)
4. Is a Christian dead to the law? (Rom. 7:4; Gal. 2:19)
5. Why does the 'comforter' (Holy Spirit) reprove the world of sin? (Jn. 15:26)
6. If a Sabbatarian traveled east from Jerusalem to the U.S. paying attention to sunsets to determine when the sabbath began for him, what day would he keep it? (I'll have to provide the answer here; it would be Friday, and this fact drives them nuts)
7. Does God justify the ungodly? (Rom. 4:5)
8. Are Christians freed from sin? (Rom. 6:6-7)
9. Why did John baptize people with water? (Jn. 1:30-31)
10. What was crucified with Christ? (Rom. 6:6).
If you miss half or more, you just might be in a cult.

RT66LT: How ignorant. No, I don't have to reprogram them to anything. Once they see how they were deceived, they are able to start using their own cognitive skills to make better choices.

Huh?
If I don't know a bunch of Bible stuff, wouldn't that make me LESS LIKELY to be in a cult?
Not being a member of any religious group (or any other group), I can promise you, I'm not in a cult.

I think I could answer all but number 6 but the Sabbath is more than a day of the week and is the salvation and kingdom which is to come which we have by faith with the resurrection of Jesus Christ.

So in other words you reprogram them with Christianity. Kind of makes Christianity into a cult, then.

If you know all those bible quotes by heart you are definitely in a cult.
