Hillsong,Exclusive Brethren, Scientology and other Cults

[NaseeeeemxD]

Well look at the chapel he's in!! Centuries ago that would of been the equality of a Hillsong church! If a atheist organization had a good income and became big world wide everyone accepts it, but because they're christians people moan! And to be honest they can carry on moaning! If Brian and Bobbie's dream was to create a worldwide church then good on them, and because of that dream thousands of people have come to Christ.

[archidexterous20]

Roman Catholic Church is a modern day Paganism...

[Mr2TIMOTHY4V2]

jaywbe says they water down the Bible-no they rewrite it -watch Joseph Prince -video above

[jaywbe]

The irony of a Catholic priest accusing Hillsong of being a cult is just hilarious. I don't think that Hillsong is a perfect church, and I don't believe that there is such thing as a perfect church. Yes theyve watered down the gospel a bit, but they still preach Jesus Christ crucified and that Jesus is the only way. Thats enough. To then make a youtube account "hillsongchurch", with clear intentions of slagging down the bride of Jesus, you've got to wonder, who is the real cult in this equation?

[MrDiddlesCat]

I got exposed to this kind of 'Christianity' in school, at a Christian school... abusive, homophobic, awful. Saw so many people get brainwashed as well.

[tunastrike11]

these are for weak minded people who have no life and believe in something that,s just not there.

[bloodybirdbrain]

A:Abolish Religion all together

[cdsbas5771]

Somebody's jealous. Hmmmm wonder who???

[Imogen1885]

The nerve of the Catholic Church accusing anyone else of money worship and doing harm. Pedophile priests run that institution.

[JasonGolden100]

@Imogen1885 totally agree, sickest denomination ever

[Imogen1885]

Christianity was classed as a cult when it started. It has all the red flags.

[aslanmaskadov]

Yeh but what's the Hillsong song Darelene Zschech is singing at 6.06?

[pheynixll]

i love Father Bob!

[halflifeproductionz]

what about the cult of christianity? islam? judaism? they're all fucking death cults.

[30waterspirits]

It is a cult. And telling people that they can get demon possessed it just pathetic!

That's just manipulation by striking fear into people.

[Bobashake]

Weak of mind losers! Brainwashed zombies! I HATE religion with a passion & what it does to lives & families. My girlfriend's mum has been a born again clown for the past 4 years & carries on like only she knows the correct answers to life. Her daughter ( my GF ) & son refuse to speak to her now as she is nuts, but she has helped brainwash the 16 year old daughter ( for the past 4 years ) & they're worried that it's too late to help her from the church (cult). Religion sucks big time!

[SuperSammyJammy]

HILLSONG IS NOT A CULT!!! I SAY NOT!

[davo1extreme]

its a cult

[ComicPenius]

How do people get so hyped up about a non-existent entity? I just don't get it. Is there a 'sucker' gene?

[Gurrier]

Father Bob's awesome

[sungis]

...Hillsong is not a cult. Funniest claim ever. Ahah.

[anchorman87]

@sungis

it ticks all the boxes...

[DrunkYeti1]

@sungis Fuck off, it is a cult, or are you a blind follower like the rest of them that are so stuck up thinking there better than anyone (like all christians) so that means that you cant accept your wrong!

[sungis]

@DrunkYeti1 I mean, I grew up in a cult... and Hillsong isn't one. ahah.

[TwoOpposableThumbsUp]

Religion is a social cancer . . . . a tax free cancer.

[TwoOpposableThumbsUp]

Religion is a social cancer . . . . a tax free cancer.

[Ecdysiast69]

I'm sooo the antichrist. It's my calling from Dog

[koalaherder]

Christianity is not a religion. It is a personal relationship with God. Jesus christ died for our sins, all of them. Also, one thing on the catholic priest. He's going to criticize and say all that. He has no room to talk. When catholics "sin" or need healing they go to a priest. If they believe in Jesus christ and what he's done then wouldn't that be like going to the doctors sister for healing instead of going to the actual doctor. Just doesn't make that much sense to me.

[pitt32671]

AMEN ! WELL SAID !

[DvsClone]

Haha... a "Catholic" priest. A case of the pot calling the kettle black. All organized religious institutions are SCAMS

[xRONx89]

I honestly think the Catholic priest was a poor source for this argument. One, he's older so that means (And this is almost stereotypical) but that means he's not into that new contemporary music also point two, that he's Catholic and Catholicism can be defined greatly opposite than modern evangelicalism. However, if Hillsong is about money than it is wrong for the Bible says so!

[cptpago]

Finally Christians banding together to stop these wicked preaches of GODS word,the family break ups and arguments these churches cause is beyond belief,

[Hannsfeld]

The father in the video lays the behavior of this cult on America. Funny, I don't see them waving any American flags, they are waving bibles. Why is this America's fault rather than religions fault in general as the enabling factor? Why is it the father believes his own country can't produce cult fanatics without America's negative example? This is a world wide failing. The father should take heart - Many Americans are ashamed when similar behavior occurs in the USA as well.

[carelhayden]

you missed his point... he was refering to the likes of Benny Hinn, Joel osteen, Joyce Meyer and so forth... You now the guys from the Bull Shit Network TBN... It all started where? America... Showbiz is big in America... Third wave was started there... thats why he says that...

[Hannsfeld]

@ cerelhayden:

...and you missed my point. To quote Christopher Hitchens - "Religion poisons everything".

...or you can blame TV for the programs on it, or a country for a handful of people in it (and I do mean a handful - the leaders are responsible, the followers to a lesser degree as enablers).

[NeverTrustSmilingCat]

i walked out of a church like this becouse they said my child was being possessed by demon dogs and shunned us.

still getting over all their abuse, they are nut jobs who promote the silver ring thing and sing hill songs. easy to walk out but emotions are messed up. This is definatly a cult and very creepy, money grabbing aimed towards middle classed people, i'm not middle class lol and glad

[phileustace]

Hillsong is a cult. Pure and simple.

It should be banned. LET THE REAL CHURCH

come back ..... go to church and put 20 cents in for the priest instead of this evangelical nonsense.

[plnckrsn]

Well said, the evangelicals do more harm to Christianity than any Richard Dawkins book.

[iCelebr8Life]

Thanks you for sharing this. I am a lover of truth and megachurches and ministries built on the cult of the personality like Mike Warnke and Bob Larson rather than upon the saving grace of Jesus Christ will be exposed. Straight is the path and narrow is the way, and few find it.

[razerbug]

This is utter crap - Hillsong is a modern church doing worship via modern mass media method, and is in no way driven by profit. I visit the London Church and at no point have I felt driven to give any money, but I have felt a greater relationship with God... Which is all any Christian teachers want. To include any Church in the same broadcast as Scientology is laughable

[entwood]

You just bought a one way ticket to Jonestown.

I think Jim was a christian wasn't he?

All cults are laughable yet the damage they do is utterly tragic.

Don't use that ticket! Get out of there before it's too late.

[milosayshi]

ok. i my self go there and i have an issue with it.. trust me.. alot.. and this lady makes some good points.. but they actually do more for the poor than the news team reporting this.. ha just a thought

[statickz007]

It started of good...............

[parrylynn]

Hillsong are after the Penties at Garden City now. Not much difference between the two sects though.

[MeekMusic]

this proves that you really can't please everybody.

[thelamb777]

The Catholic Church is a satanic cult...

The pope is the antichrist...

That message is a Godsend...

I gaurantee you...

[hillsongchurch]

Hi Nick,

Hillsong United play for the pope at catholic world youth day in Sydney and Darlene described it as serving the catholic church..

I added a link for you in "more info" or you can google it yourself....

Their Theology doesnt stand in the way of a good profit margin..

[MsBatista85]

@thelamb777 AMEN AND AMEN.

[xFENRISx]

I dislike religious bullying and indoctrination...but I also dislike the propaganda of current affairs shows.

[nailspluscross]

LOL...you Catholics are cults ..LOL..juzz kidding...This Lady is A crap...

[steveascension]

I think the guy who posted this site video would surly have banged the hammer that put the nails into Jesus feet & hands.

A real Nero type person.

Just waiting & prowling around to inflict & inject his venom & fangs into who ever meets his fancy.

[weviewoo]

Thats why the freemasons are the best...

[early9300]

all i can say is god is good.

and satan is out to ther to call ppl to stumble.

[JackedUpOnMTDew]

Its sad that people envy god moving and blessing a church that reaches out to him and allows them into their life. To be honest i dont have enough time to sit here and disprove every bit of falsnes in this story but i know the truth i know where im headed and GOd has called me to HillsongCollege a lil southern boy from georgia and i cant wait to be surrounded by people who actually stand up for god and not just go to church cause they live in the bible belt and thats what they are supposed to do

[entwood]

This is why Hillsong is dangerous. Even intelligent people like you can be ensnared and blinded to reality.

Go on, spend a little of your precious time debunking the 'falsnes' (sic) in this story.

I think it's more a lack of argument than a lack of time which stops you.

[Gurrier]

Father Bob is my hero!

[DYOUNG36]

The Exclusive Brethren sound very sinister and evil and no different from "The Stepford Wives" or the Taliban in Afghanistan and Mr Angry from the Scientologists deserves a thick ear!!

[DYOUNG36]

I accept that Hillsong is yet another example of how American style corporate Christianity has infiltrated and is trying to hijack the traditional church.But why is it that God appears to use them to 'bless' so many people through their music or lead so many to Christ through their ministry?If they are so corrupt then why would God use them?Can anyone explain to me?It does not make sense!!One thing I am absolutely sure of though is that the Exclusive brethren and Scientologists are bonkers!!

[mcrdinosaur]

Everybody know that the church is about the almighty dollar...If they cared then why are they tax exempted? They talk about GOD BLESS AMERICA but when it comes to THEIR money they can't have any of it...hmmmm strange...

[aguazul55]

This Clip is .. just defaming ,and the facts are just to talking things that are not True... I tru believe that we Should Follow Jesus, follow His ways , and to be steadfast for His presence ,but,the other things are secondary ,such as TRIBULATION .. IN OTHER WORDS .. FALSE TESTIMONEY AGAINST YA BROTHEr .. i dunno what's the matter againt Hillsong Church it had icrease in Member volume .. because God Is drawing closer His ppl, and doesn't matter which church is ti we're all Christ's Church ...

[DYOUNG36]

Large numbers is not an indication that God is in it because the Morman Church is large,powerful and wealthy but you would not agree that God is in that would you?And it does matter which church because not all churches teach the truth because they are not all Christ's Church.Check out Westboro Baptist Church in USA to see what I mean.

[SpaceboyProductions]

Woo! Father Bob!

[askegg]

Father Bob is great. Religion is NOT. Australia is the best place in the world :)

[jayneshat]

I still have trouble believing that people still fall for this garbage.

[GuojiPiaoke]

Fr. McGuire was right - it IS all a load of american-style bollocks. That's the impression I got when I went to a "church" service to which I was once invited. What was going through my head at the time was "wtf is it with all this evangelical singing and dancing nonsense? This is not bona fide worship".

[drummerscourge]

Whats so wrong with singing and dancing?

[GuojiPiaoke]

Sorry, I went off on a slight tangent there. "Nothing at all" is the answer. The (real) problem is the fact that they're so manipulative - messing with vulnerable, young ppl's minds, esp young Chinese birds. Just today at work, one young chick announced "I've been away at a 3-day hillsong conference in Homebush". I just sat there, rolled my eyes and thought "yet another poor messed up chinese chick".

[drummerscourge]

I dont know enough about hillsong church to judge for or against it, i just think people shouldent judge any chuch as so sort of cult-like organisation just becuase it may be a lively church with cotemperory music. Not trying to defend hillsongs though, i dont really know much about them.

[donny6085]

Follow Jesus not a church leader. Find a church that God has called you too be in community with.

[phavix]

I love Father Bob! Listening to him on the the Radio is AWESOME, and I'm not even Australian!

Thanks for upping this video!
