whether used cars, religion, auto mechanics, stock brokers or whatever services/products:
-Always beware of those who claim that only their version works.
-Be especially wary of those who bad-mouth the competition.
-Shop around; compare what they're selling with the competing options.
-Compare reputations; the more you invest, the mroe research you should do. When someone's service department keeps finding loopholes in the wording in order to wiggle around, watch out.
So... don't buy theology from someone you wouldn't buy a used car from.

Jesus Christ is fully man and fully God. Its not a question of whether Christianity is a cult, or a religion, or a "form of spirituality". The raw truth is that Christ is God, and all who aspire to unite themselves with God aspire to unite themselves with Christ. The Church teaches that if someone is ignorant of the gospels, through no fault of their own, they can still come to Christ by earnestly seeking God and listening to the voice of God that whispers in their soul. Eventually they will discover that the voice is the voice of Christ. This is the fundamental "secret" of the universe, and every person or group who declares it does not belong to a cult but rather stands in the brilliant light of reality, a reality more wonderful than any of the fantasies with which cults mislead their followers.

What if they are right?
We see in everything made by God that there is order. Only when man interferes that there is chaos. His organization puts specific duties at each level of responsibility.
Why would He not set up how He desires to be worshiped? Why should He even acknowledge when men decide to do something different from His desire? Certainly, if He disapproves, there would be no need to bless their efforts. Of course, it would have to follow the Bible closely.
So cult no. True religion, Yes!

No. Religion didn't say this - God did.
Jesus said, "I am the way, the truth and the life and no one comes to the Father except by Me."
Jesus was God in the flesh who walked the earth so we could know Him and He said it.
Doesn't really matter what you think, because God left His Word the Holy Bible to explain what He thinks and since God is life, the truth and the only way, you should listen.
In this world of falsehood, God knew the truth is needed and He gave it to us. If you will notice or at least try to notice, you will see that only the name of Jesus Christ is what angers other religions or the wicked and evil.

No, I would call it Truth.
Jesus said, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the father except by me." John 14
God said it, not Christians. We just believe it.
