THIS WEEK'S PICTURE VERSE

THIS WEEK'S
WORD OF ADMONITION:
Sometimes the “church” dogmas and traditions of men that many have bought into are so ridiculously stupid that we are afraid to call them for what they are because of the repercussions that will follow.
Those who teach it are liars who actually drum up this nonsense
from the father of lies, Satan.
THIS WEEK’S CHURCH
CATCHPHRASE
“LOYALTY”
1) Faithful adherence to “church hirelings” and their cause, no matter what!
“My first priority in life is loyalty to attend the church worship services!”
Once you see the Real, Biblical Truth,
you cannot un-see it!
THIS WEEK'S BIBLE VERSE
There are many devices in a man's heart; nevertheless the counsel of the LORD, that shall stand.
Proverbs 19:21
See the truth come to life!
THIS WEEK'S
"The Pastoral Office"
Would you still “attend church” if mandatory attendance wasn’t forced down your throats
by the church hirelings?
LIE OF THE WEEK
"It’s not your job to question
God's servants!"
Some tell-tale signs that someone has been or is being brainwashed. These include
the following:
Milieu Control: One entering an abusive church is exposed only to information that the group deems 'truth'. It is the group's truth alone that is both openly and subtly taught; anything else is a threat.
Mystical Manipulation: This is the claim that the leaders are acting for God in a way that makes them unquestionable. To dare to question the leadership is to risk falling from grace.
Demand for Purity: The “leader” will almost always have a very rigid black and white world-view arbitrated by the leader. He is the infallible moral judge, using guilt and shame as his tools of control.
The Cult of Confession: Normal lines between what is private and what is public knowledge are broken, and members confess the most personal and minor sins. Personal conscience is surrendered to the leadership.
The 'Sacred Science': The doctrine of the group becomes the de facto 'Truth of God.' It is not open for discussion or debate. It is Ultimate Truth itself. No dissention on any level is permitted.
Loading the Language: A special language develops within the group that would have little meaning to outsiders. Terms like 'self-denial', or “being disaffected” are loaded with special significance carefully constructed by message after message on such topics.
Doctrine Over Person: There is no personal reality apart from the group's reality. Whatever does not fit must be altered or molded to fit the paradigm of the group. This is the emergence of the true cultic persona.
Dispensing of Existence: This is the most evil trait of all, for the leader decides who lives and who dies. Whereas putting to death may be literal in some cults, for most professing “to be Bible-based,” the 'murder' involves destruction of a person's spirit. So-called offenders are emotionally destroyed and their reputation is slain through public revelations of alleged 'sins' as well as out-right and deliberate lies. All confidentiality is broken solely at the discretion of the leaders. Victims are shunned by all other members as well as by their own family.
