That is entirely unfair, Tim. You can't define a cult based on Christian terms. Many non Christians believe US to be a cult. Yes many cults have charismatic leaders but that is NOT what defines them. Cults are defined by "separatism" and extreme faith. Obsessive beliefs. Separatism meaning they withdraw from the world as a whole. Communal living as a way to protect their fragile and fanatical belief systems from external influence which may poke holes in their faith. Jim Jones founded a cult and he LOVED God. The Hale Bop people were a cult. Separatism, castration and suicide. You can't label people a cult because they don't believe Jesus is Lord. Remember Christians are still being killed today. Martyred for Christ. Not by cults. By governmental fanatic, by religious fanatics and even by each other. Please, just let it go. Lisa |

Why can't we define a cult on Christian terms? If the Bible is held to be the source of ultimate truth, why can't we use that as the standard for defining what a cult is? For more on the beliefs of Baha'i, and why it can be rightfully called an aberration of Christianity, please check out the following links: http://www.watchman.org/profile/bahaipro.htm http://www.equip.org/free/DB035.htm Please read them and take a look at the solidly biblical responses. --Joe! |
