Cults Vs. Christian
There are cults that claim they are Christian by hiding behind “christian” doctrine” but by the truth if even one of these doctrines deviates then it is Wrong.
Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.(1 John 4:1)
In the simplest terms A cult is any group that presents a different Gospel; preach a different Christ and are motivated to do so let me illustrate with a comparison between the two”doctrines”
Christians
- Believe that God is 1 in 3, and 3 in 1 a concept called the Trinity
- Believe that Christ came to free man from sin and death with his own death on the Cross(2 Peter 2:24, 1 Corinthians 15:3-4)
- That Christ was born of a virgin (Isa 7:14, Lk 1:26-31)
- Believes that Christ is the ONLY Son of God (John 3:16)
- Believes that Christ is God in the Flesh
- The Bible is the True and inspired Word of God (2 Tim 3:16-17, 2 Peter 1:21)
- Believe that Christ is the only mediator needed to get to God(Hebrews 1;1)
- Sin and Hell are both very real
- Believe that we can not attain heaven by how obedient and legalistic we are but that Christ paid our debt and that nothing is owed in return
Cults believe things such As:
- They use seemingly rational arguments that appeals to “feelings”
- Believe that there is no Hell or that Sin is a product of man
- Believe that man decides what is right and wrong(Humanistic)
- Deny the Trinity
- Use “Christian” terms and phrases
- Preach a different gospel such as the Book of Mormon
- deny the Deity of Christ
- Believe the Bible has been mistranslated; or only use the passages that they agree with
- Believe that one needs a modern-day prophet to leader to lead “interpret” the teachings of their “scriptures’ a priest to confess to
- Believe that obedience and legalism lead to heaven
- recruit with deceptive and fear-mongering tactics
- All claim “true church” syndrome
- Believe in many Gods, or that God has a father
- Many cults idolize people such as Joseph Smith or Jim Jones
- Are obsessed with the “end times” and prophecy
Thus saith the LORD of hosts, Hearken not unto the words of the prophets that prophesy unto you: they make you vain: they speak a vision of their own heart, and not out of the mouth of the LORD.(Jeremiah 23:16)

A cult is an organization that teaches traditions of man and calls it Holy. A cult is an organization that does not embrace Scripture as it is written. A cult is an organization that partakes in Pagan holidays in direct defiance of Yahweh and HIS word. A cult is an organization that ignores the 613 laws of Yahweh, because they would rather indulge in satanic idolatry. To believe ANY form of Christianity is Holy, is to believe Yahweh is a liar. I challenge anybody to prove the Holiness of christianity via non-Greco-Roman fraudulent Scripture.

the questions I posted in the last blog have yet to be answered because they can’t be. We are called to give an account of what we believe as backed up with scripture , if these organizations “believe” as they say why not answer the question in a biblical manner
They don’t understand we..I ask out of love

This is why I challenge anybody to prove via Scripture, that any christian based religion (Including christianity), is based on the word of Yahweh. I guarantee it cannot be done!! If any Christian had the knowledge of The truth of the Olive Tree (Romans 11), and John 1:1, along with Matthew 7:23, Matthew 5:17-19, Jeremiah 10, Romans 2:29, Leviticus 23, etc……. They would understand they all practice a FALSE religion. It is not my word, it is the word of Yahweh.
The Christian church has been leading their congregations down the path to their destruction for centuries. The lies being taught, have become tradition that is so deeply entrenched within the psyche of those who call themselves “Christian”, that they don’t even realize that they are practicing nothing but pagan idolatry, and NOTHING Scriptural.
It’s all in the Bible for anyone to read and to understand, this is if Ruach HaKodesh opens up people’s eyes.

Nonconformer this is the second time you have commented on my blogs without backing what you say i MUST ASK that in respect to myself and others you USE scripture to give credence to what you are saying this will prevent anyone from using the accusation that you are not sharing the truth in love

Brother, he is a lost individual who has many demonic spirits within his temple. Someone who knows religion, but does not know Faith. He has a strong relationship with HaSatan and not with YahShua. A slave to worthless traditions and not free in Ruach HaKodesh. We should pray for him to find Shalom through HaRuach, and a relationship with YahShua HaMashiach.
