HEy do you know what happened witht he original poster of this vid? he removed this video but he had a link to where i can get a copy of this video. I would really like one. Is there any way i can get a hold of that person?
I am afraid that Born Again Christianity is a very big fraud. Born Again people go to church every Sunday in T-Shirts, Flip Flops and Blue Jeans. They sit and get entertained by Pseudo Religious "Praise" Music....listen to a 30 min sermon...and then rush like HELL to get to Cracker Barrel first. They have NO spiritual depth at all.
As a Muslim I am SHOCKED by the Biblical ignorance of so many "born again" Christians. They find American Idol FAR more interesting than the Gospel.
Just something worth mentioning. Your note says this documentary is from the early 70's. But the first thing they talk about in this is the Jonestown massacre -- which took place in late 1978. Could you have possibly meant the early 80's?
I just get VERY nervous when people start throwing out words like Cult, Brainwashed, etc...etc.. There is a real danger in marginalizing people of a different religious/value system than our own. We must respect our religious minorities in this country.
These are real people who choose to live a certain spiritual life. My family members are mostly Jehovah's Witnesses and I hate it when people cast hurtful sounding words at them like "cultists".
Jesus did not support, defend, or even tolerate religious differences. He told the religious leaders of His day to repent. He called them hypocrites and snakes. The Apostle Paul warned churches during his day,"If anyone gives you a different gospel whether from men or even an angel they are to be accursed". (Gal 1:6-10) If you love your fellow man you will try to help them not to be accursed. You will step out and say "this is wrong". All roads do not lead to heaven. (Jn 14:6)
Are religious Jews in a Cult? They do not work on the Sabbath, celebrate Easter, keep Christmas, eat pork, or even believe in Jesus. Does that make them Cult Freaks? Get the point?
You all need to watch who you slur and slander by calling them cultists and religious freaks. This country was supposed to be founded on Religious Freedom.
What do you think of the International Church of God? My friend belongs to this church and I really thought they had some very *strange* "rules" to be a member. For one thing if you had a good paying job that called for you to work on a Saturday you had to leave that job. You were not allowed to do ANY type of work on Saturday. Also you were forbidden to celebrate Christmas or Easter, eat pork, shell fish,or do anything between 6pm friday to 6pm on Saturday?
After the Worldwide Church of God split this, church among others who wished to carry on the Herbert W Armstrong theology formed. Growing up in the WCG I can tell you this is the same cult with a different name. If you are truly a friend you will get this person to a bible believing church, Remember Jesus said "it is finished" on the cross. He finished the work. You can not work your way to heaven. Everything has been done to forgive us and our righteousness is as filthy rags to Him.
Jonestown is just an extreme example you want to see something really terrifying look at what The Children of God did to people (i.e. Ricky Rodrges) or the crushing spirtual abuse of The Mormons.
Good video Oct..., Did anyone notice the early on comments about shallowness of "churches" being the reason they were looking for something more? Are the "churches" being control by the goats? We need a third??? great awakening. I wonder if it is not beginning even now.
You know, I noticed that Most cults have a "prophet" that hear from God, or have visions from God. And I can't help but think of the similarities of them and of the modern churches of today. They too have extreme prophets and new teachings going on. They too go hunting around looking for a "new fresh word" or a new anointing from God. I hope God will open their eyes and see how dangerous all that is. Satan can conger up a beautiful, good feeling, supernatural meeting, and deceive them all.
I have a very close relative who was raised as a Christian Scientist. Even though he doesn't openly practice this religion, it is wielded over my head like a sword of Damocles. My daughter fell into Scientology in her early 20's. I have dear friends who struggle with the devastating effects of being shunned after leaving the Jehovah's Witnesses. I see people here on YouTube struggling with the same thing. I hate herecy of any kind as this is what it leads to. Praise God for your expose.
My great-grandparents were Christian Scientists. My grandmother almost died because a stomach-ache turned out to be apendicitus, and her appendix burst when my great-grandmother put a hot whatchyamacallit on it and refused to take her to the hospital.

True, but doesn't mean the God of the gospel is a fraud.
If you determine the truth of YHWH by His people who haven't got it together then your point is extremely lame.

Extremley wayward. There is enough of the gospel for someone to hear and be saved, but not enough for a christian to want to stay.
