  • I am a member of the potters house i own a t.v and have never been accused or convicted as a sinner for doing so the only people who are placed with restriction are people out of their own will who want to get involved in ministry, so now they are a cult for having guidlines???? I mean people get a choice in this

  • I used to go to the door in Redlands,CA and was forced to do things. Like give testimonies, and forced to try to speak in tongues. I was only 15 years old and every time I went to church I felt like shit. They always said that we were going to hell if we weren't perfect. 3 times a week services and if you missed one the pastor would be at your door the next day asking why you didn't show. To this day I don't trust churches and I'm scared to get involved in one. Very traumatic. I hope God will l

  • Wow....The way they attack christian in the media is unbelievable....Any big church that is worshiping God n Jesus get called a cult.....After 20yrs of being involved in the streets n women i was saved last april 12th of 2010 and then baptise 2 weeks later...I am a member of the potter house and all i heard from these negative people who so called themself Gods people or former members about mind control is a joke...I'm allow to do what ever i want and its never been told of me any different...

  • I have atteneded the church since 93 and have seen lives changed for the better . I do not attend the church anymore in the Trinidad area because of reasons between me and the new pastor . There are mighty men of God in this church and it will prevail ! I have been blessed to have been a part of this fellowship and I am greatful for all your love and prayers in the past. May God bless this church and may you guys keep changing peoples lives for the better . God bless the potters house / Door .

  • They aren't a cult. they are just on fire for Jesus!!!!! Awesome, i'm glad they are radical.

  • @poorsmellyyetiess Any group that ancourages members to cut ties with their families, is a cult. I was there for almost ten years. The hardest thing after I left, was realizing the hurt and pain I had caused my family.

  • cult

  • The Door is a great church that God is moving through, and through God has kept me saved. No one has ever intimidated, harassed, or tried to control. Just shown a loving concern for me.

  • @teagan73191 You're either lying or in major denial! I was controlled and told what to do the whole time I was there. Told to cut my parents off, drop out of school, not join the military because it wasn't god's will for my life. I had to ask permission who I could date. The list goes on and on. So, no control?

  • @ekkertmal99 Well if that was truly your unexaggerated experience, then that church has issues and needs to get back on track. The Door is a radical church, that is true, and there might have been a few things I didn't agree with, but I never experienced that. There are no perfect churches. The pastor and my friends were there for me when other people were not. I don't even go there any more and I'm still in contact with people there.

  • @teagan73191 That's nice that you can be on good terms with them. I lost all respect for my pastor when he helped my ex relocate with my daughter and her new 'missionary date' boyfriend to a church in another state. When I asked him where she took off to, he acted like he didn't know. This was a guy I thought would stand up for what's right. Instead he took sides and let himself be manipulated by a good storyteller. This is a leadership pastor in my area. He's on the track he wants to be on.

  • @ekkertmal99 Well, that's unfortunate, and I don't blame you for your hard feelings towards him.

  • heh just feel a scream inside listening to this. I hate these freaken people... if any of you still go to these churches youre nuts.

  • that chick, straight up looks crazy as it is

  • When these Bastard people hasslle you just tell them naxt time you will be ready for them with a Baseball bat.They are total cowards and need a belting.

  • That doesn't change the facts: PH is a cult that abuses people spiritually, socially, psychologically, financially & physically. PH teachings & practices are what Paul outed as Galatianism (mix:Law & Grace) It's is a CULT!

    Blasphemous Wayman Mitchell says he's True Headship & PH pastors are Headship. In the Bible Headship is only applied to Jesus Himself! HE is the Head of the Church/Body of Christ.

    Mitchell's heretic spew is identical to Bob Mumford's Shepherding/Discipleship doctrine!

    God bless you who persacute us

    but the more you do that

    the more we grow and the more our faith stands out

    just remember Jesus is the judge and you will be judge on judgement day

    God bless you

  • There is a great deal of control in the PH & anyone who doesn't submit to it is escorted out. Those that leave are rediculed & talked about from the pulpit. A woman who leaves is a whore & men who leave are either adulterors or faggots. PH pastors are rude & overbearing in these matters & that is passed off as being spiritual. Backsliders are told to go to hell. No PH pastor even closely resembles the Great Shepherd who leaves the 99 to go after 1 stray.

  • Actually I grew up in the door, Was saved till I was 18. I back slid and was NEVER told to go to hell,no one talked about me unless it was in there prayers for me to come back. Even when I was backslid I had nothing but respect for the Door, I just wasn't ready to lead a Christian life. Now I am back and am happy to be there, My Pastor is an awesome Pastor. The congregation accepted me back with open arms.

  • You can attack me personally. It looks like I'm in good company. My question was completely rational. Where's the proof of skewing?

  • OK, for one thing people in this church who are victimized 99% of the time don't even realize it. Even if they do, they aint going on camera saying they are if they're still in it. Most who come out of the PH KNOW for a fact they have been a victim & very few of them want to admit it.

  • It's blasphemy for Wayman Mitchell to teach that he is True Headship of the PH church & that the pastors in his churches are Headship to them under him. Nowhere in the Bible is Headship applied to ANYONE except Jesus Himself! HE is the Head of the Church ie the Body of Christ. These are just a few skewed things.

  • The proof of skewing is not so much in the videos as it is the message of the PH when compared to the Word! It's wrong to preach Jesus saves & then lead new converts into a mix of law & grace where there are no checks & balances! It's sin to preach the free gift of salvation & then turn around & teach them they have to make payments on their salvation & if they don't they're going to Hell!

  • There is a great deal of control in the PH & anyone who doesn't submit to it is escorted out. Those that leave are rediculed & talked about from the pulpit. A woman who leaves is a whore & men who leave are either adulterors or faggots. PH pastors are rude & overbearing in these matters & that is passed off as being spiritual. Backsliders are told to go to hell. No PH pastor even closely resembles the Great Shepherd who leaves the 99 to go after 1 stray.

  • The skew is in the fact that the Love Gospel is excluded completely from the PH message. It's a legalistic works church & about submitting to a knowitall pastor who attempts to officiously micromanage every person in their flock. No wonder congregations are small.

  • The manipulation is the pastor has a controlling influence in the church demanding that everyone pay tithes by check in a very public way. There is no secret giving or secret prayer. All works are to be in front of people not as to the Lord in secret. You must speak in tongues or you aren't saved & you must do it LOUD & all at once even if Paul taught against this in I Corinthians! SKEW!

  • If you've ever been to the door u would know none of this to be true. 1st you can be saved and not speak in tongues. I was saved for months before I spoke in tongues and only did so after being filled with the holy spirit. 2nd, I never wrote a check & never been ridiculed. 3rd if Your on fire for God, you want to announce it as LOUD as you can. It's not a Mandate. 4th we take offerings for the purpose of planting new churches and supporting the ones we already have.

  • Good. Then, based on this report, I'd love to go there. Why don't these reports show this "skewing" then? Why haven't they shown one current member who's being manipulated or fearful. Sounds contrived to me.

  • Again, you're not listening to the videos, nor are you reading the posts here. You are either intentionally not paying attention or you are DUMB! I am beginning to think it's all an act from someone who is really 14 & completely disingenious about their posts or perhaps you are just another insane person on the internet.

  • The proof of the skewing is easy. Just ask ANYONE who has left the Potters House!

  • I like the reporter because she says its for the viewers to decide. Unlike Rick Ross and the others who are telling me what I should believe about them. Who's trying the mind control here?

  • The truth is Rick Ross tells people it's a decision they have to make and I say the same thing. PH pastors spin and skew the message to manipulate people and keep them in fear - THAT'S mind control!

  • 1 Corinthians 1:11-13 For it hath been declared unto me of you, my brethren, by them which are of the house of Chloe, that there are contentions among you.

    Now this I say, that every one of you saith, I am of Paul; and I of Apollos; and I of Cephas; and I of Christ. Is Christ divided? Was Paul crucified for you? Or were ye baptized in the name of Paul?

  • So much for Mitchell's PH CULT teaching of 'headship' which is nothing more than a headtrip used to exert control, to manipulate and to abuse etc. It isn't Bible or Scripture; Jesus didn't teach it nor did Paul, James, John or Peter. I don't call my pastor Father or Lord. I call him a Brother in Christ. We are to submit ourselves unto the Lord NOT a man!

  • What are you so mad about? I think if others serve God in different churches praise God. I do not feel condemned, God gives Pastors authority over a church(headship) you have your facts confused.

  • No, YOU have your Bible doctrines confused following PH's UNBIBLICAL UNSCRIPTURAL headship HEADTRIP w/pastor authority. Paul said "follow me as I follow Christ" & also said "submit yourselves one to another" NOT to him as head of church, NOR to James who was pastor of the church in Jerusalem NOR Peter who Catholics call 1st Pope. Jesus IS Headship!

  • What you said is a lie from hell. I go to the door an I serve in my church because I love Jesus and I love others in this world. I feel sorry for all you who talk bad about Pastor Mitchel, he is a mighty man of God with an annointing on his life. God knows thetruth and we will all give an account to God.

  • I agree with you...I am also a member of the Door and if it wasn't for the love of Christ saving me I don't know where I would be today. Thank God that he was able to use a great man like Pastor Mitchell to help so many lost people. The question is What are you doing for Christ..you are so busy condemning our fellowship but what are you doing for Christ?

  • Would you mind Kalisaisaih, telling me what things you are doing for Christ?

  • It's obvious what he/she is doing for Christ! They are here bragging about where they are in their walk with God & instead of thanking & praising HIM they are praising, thanking, honoring Pastor Wayman Mitchell. The mere fact that Mitchell allows his followers to do this speaks volumes about his spirituality! Cults always have a central figure: PH has Mitchell. True Christianity has Jesus as the Center NOT some rebellious control freak who talks porn in his sermons!

  • You said it right Manfromplaid!!

  • I LOVE JESUS..and PH

  • That doesn't change the fact that the PH is a cult. It doesn't change the fact that the PH abuses people spiritually, psychologically, financially and even physically! It doesn't change the fact the PH teachings & practices are a page right out of Galatianism (mix of Law & Grace) which is a CULT!

  • I dare you to "not tithe and miss church" for a week...and let's see if PH still loves you back....I know Jesus will...

  • Please tell us more of your experiences with Potters House! Ex-PH who look here need to know more so they can have the courage to come forward & admit they were deceived & hurt by this dangerous CULT! So many of them are afraid to admit what they know in their heart & live in fear that it will happen again. This is why so many of them don't go to any church. They still believe but their faith has been damaged. The TRUTH will set them FREE!

  • I'm a former member of The Potter's House Church and I am here to tell you about my personal experience, which was a HORRIBLE one.The pastor had kidnapped my daughter and had tried to sell her to another couple in another state.

  • The irony is the PH wants your MONEY but they do not want the people to advance themselves. They'd rather have this guy working for $8 an hr, living in an apt and coughing up every cent he makes to give the church rather than provide a better life for his family! They want you to work, just don't take a better job with any kind of future. Is that sick or what??

  • Potters House/Door pastors I knew discouraged members from starting their own business! One guy & his wife had a couple of kids & living in an apt. PH pastor forbade him from starting his business, then forbid them buying a house! He didn't refuse the tithes when the guy became the largest supporter in the church! He was set down out of ministry for disobeying the pastor. Does this sound like a church God has anything to do with? I didn't think so!

  • The PH discourages any future planning, teach careers are a dead end, also civic duty & military service. They want a self-contained church, teach separatism, elitism & practice information control. They don't want us to stick our head up & look around because we will see the truth & leave! Bogus!

  • You are soo right about that...I remember times when my pastor would discourage me from going to College out of state...he said.."it wasn't the will of God" How the Hell does he know? THe PH will discourage you from taking that Job promotion out of town. Also discourage you from buying a house cuss that means you don't want to be a Pioneer Pastor someday...

  • The Door has split up a few times already. The leadership is very disorganized...the New preachers are not fully prepared or even educated. Don't attend this church if you just bought a PLASMA TV....cuss they will smash it. Heehee....oh and don't tell the leadership how much money you make. Cuss they might invite you out to dinner.

  • Let's get something straight Cult Boy, God IS in the business of changing lives! The Potters House does a bait & switch, then damages those same lives. I seen it for over 25 years in the PH. Those people are nothing more than a human resource to Mitchell while in PH. He calls them "human waste" when they leave! This is a man of God? Yeah, right. So was Jim Jones and David Koresh! Mitchell is not much better.

  • It's funny how you view damaged lives, God view's it as CHANGED lives. Praise God for such a fellowship and the lives that I have personally witnessed being changed and are now serving God wholeheartedly ( not Pastor Mitchell) Sorry brother or sister but you have it all wrong

  • After viewing all 5 chapters of this story I am even more convinced that Potters House is a CULT! Moreso than when I was in it. I have personally witnessed the damage in people's lives from this church. Many of these folks are very damaged from what they went thru. The only comparison is a captured soldier in a POW prison. Only God can unravel the damage. The Good News is God can unscramble eggs. He will heal those who trust Him!!

  • That's funny! Sure just disregard anything any person says who has been associated with Wayman Mitchell & his CULT has to say. Certainly anyone who escapes a POW camp must be deranged and lying! Let's not forget those from Foursquare who have known him since 1955 who ALL say Mitchell was a rebel all along who never taught the truth in love, always mixing law & grace etc. Let's listen to you!

  • Wayman Mitchell is a true man of God don't believe x members. It is really God's church.

  • Why not believe x members?

  • A multiplicity of the classic symptoms of a CULT are present in this church! Even though they teach & preach Jesus they still use and abuse the members via control & manipulation. The only reason Mitchell hasn't passed out Kool-Aid to his people is they send him their tithes!
