 What is a Cult of Christianity?

"A cult of Christianity is a group of people, which claiming to be a Christian, embraces a particular doctrinal system taught by an individual leader, group of leaders, or organization, which (system) denies (either explicitly [definite] or implicitly [absolute]) one or more of the central doctrines of the Christian faith as taught in the sixty-six books of the Bible."

Adapted from the book of Alan W. Gomes, Unmasking the Cults (Grand Rapids: Zondervan Publishing House, 1995)

3. Christ's ordinance on the Lord's supper and water baptism is administered.

4. The pastor seemed concerned about your spiritual well being and he is natural and non-judgmental in bringing up spiritual matters in his conversations.

5. Administers Biblical Church discipline and ethics.

6. There is an opportunity for the lay people to serve the Church
