How Cults Deceive

When we use the word "cult" and "cultic teaching" we are making reference to distorted teachings and abusive groups that redefine the Biblical, historical Person of Jesus Christ and the essential doctrines of the orthodox Christian faith . . . . all cults end up attacking the real historical Jesus Christ. They ascribe to Him that which is contrary to His character, His nature and His very own claims. To redefine Jesus Christ, Biblical terminology, and the essential doctrines of the Christian Faith in this way is to produce doublethink perversion. Confusion, delusion and spiritual abuse follow.

Let us never forget the very sobering words of the Apostle Paul, "I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel: Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ. But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed. As we said before, so say I now again, if any man preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed." (Galatians 1:6-9)

"Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage" (Galatians 5:1).

How Cults Deceive

 

[Word of Life]

Part of my prayer time, is put aside for people who are in wrong doctrines, and I ask God to forgive them, as Jesus did in his time.

Luk 23:34 Then said Jesus, Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do. And they parted his raiment, and cast lots.

Gal 1:6 I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel:
Gal 1:7 Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ.
Gal 1:8 But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed.
Gal 1:9 As we said before, so say I now again, If any man preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed.

Jo 4:2 Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God:

1Jo 4:15 Whosoever shall confess that Jesus is the Son of God, God dwelleth in him, and he in God.

1Jo 5:5 Who is he that overcometh the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God?

1Jo 5:12 He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life.

Thanks for sharing brother

i sat down not so long ago and was flicking through channels, this one programme caught my eye and i sat there for a good hour with my mouth hanging open,

It was about a cult in some part of the States i cannot recall what part, but the lies and the pure horror this one man spread claiming to be Jesus Christ. The followers he had gathered just drank up every word he gave them and my heart really pained for those people, the things they did on his command and i wont go into it cause its brutel,
Its like watching pure evil in action.

I keep people like this in my prayers daily and pray one day, the Light of Christ will touch them and set them free.

God Bless and Much Love xoxoxoxoxox

And thou shalt love the Lord thy God, with all thy might, with all thy soul, and with all thy mind and with all thy strength: this is the first and great commandment. And the second is like, namely this, thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself. There is no other commandment greater than these. (Jesus) Mk 12 : 30/31

In Deuteronomy ch 5 : 6 - 21 we read the 10 commandments.

The 10 Commandments not the 10 suggestions

A cult as I see it are those who prefer their own idea, thought, manifestation. etc.

The bible is clear "Salvation is of the Lord" this is absolute, and not open to debate.

Cults are of men....and are terrestrial Salvation is of the Lord and is Eternal
