Why do People treat me like I'm crazy when it comes to thinking and trying to living Biblicaly? They act like I'm in a cult....Really??? I see how People LOOK at religion and Christ ! Jesus is included in all the "religions". The Truth I speak (they explain) Is my truth and it's relative.. You can't Explain it to them....there hard.... My Bible is not just my truth.... It IS TRUTH.... May The Lord help with the understanding of the ONLY way... Show all sceptics... Let them see WE are not part of just SOME movement.. It's the ONLY movement ! Commanded by THE ONLY GOD ! OUR KING ! LORD JESUS ! OUR FATHER ! OUR CREATOR ! *THERE CREATOR....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They can think what they want after your tell them of Christ- there will be those who listen, and there will be those who don't. We are required to give and be ready to give an account for our belief : 1 Peter 3:15 "But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts: and be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear:" And after that planting and watering- it is through the Work of the Holy Spirit that convicts and works in that individual. All we can do is tell them about Him and how to reach Him, from there it is he/she and God. 1 Corinthians 3:7 "So then neither is he that planteth any thing, neither he that watereth; but God that giveth the increase" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 13, 2013 Share Posted May 13, 2013 These things have I spoken unto you, that ye should not be offended. They shall put you out of the synagogues: yea, the time cometh, that whosoever killeth you will think that he doeth God service. And these things will they do unto you, because they have not known the Father, nor me. John 16:1-3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why is it that We LOOK crazy to others. But then I read my Bible and The Lord confirms that how they LOOK at truth seekers is all what is excpected from the hardened heart.

There is no wonder people view the whole as one big cult. There is nothing new under the sun. All things begin with truth and change it to a lie. There is no other option available.

Pressure to conform may be aggressive in nature. 3/ Criticism of the cult leader forbidden. 4/ Contact with outsiders limited or forbidden altogether. Access to outside information limited or censored. 5/ Internal Peer pressure encouraged by the leader. Cult members expected to inform on each other and report any dissidence. Vigilante activity within the cult is encouraged to keep subordinates in line. Members may be expected to die for causes to the cult or for the leader. Christianity is definitely NOT a cult (although there may be cults claiming to be Christian). According to the above definitions there is one major World religion that would be classified as a cult. I'll leave you to guess which one that is! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
