No.. it is a branch of Christianity that encourages speaking in tongues, and emphasizes the descent of the Holy Spirit onto followers of God (Pentecost).

You could say Catholicism is more of a cult, as evangelical/pentecostal/baptist etc. do not require believers to pay a fee for their sins... now that doesn't make sense does it.?

Why are cult groups considered to be outside of mainstream churches?

A cult, by definition, is any social group whose practices are considered by the surrounding population to be outside the mainstream. A common feature of cults is their tendency towards exploitation and control over their members. Some cults exert so much control that they can convince their members to commit suicide. This information is specific to Christianity's view of a cult: * In the Christian faith churches are where Christ is worshipped, but if the bible is in some way changed or a book is added it's called sacrilegous or occult. The bible is not open to interpretation. * A cult is any organization that denies in some way that Jesus Christ is the Son of God, the second member of the Trinity, and Saviour who died to free men from sin. This canbe through deceptive use of language where the cult uses words that sound right to others but actually teach something different. * Denies the Trinity.


Is the san Diego church of christ a cult?

The San Diego Church of Christ, part of the International Churches of Christ (ICC), has been labeled a cult by some critics due to its authoritarian leadership structure, strict doctrines, and practices that can be seen as controlling. Supporters, however, argue that it is a legitimate Christian denomination focused on evangelism and community. Whether it is classified as a cult often depends on individual perspectives and definitions of cult-like behavior. It's important to approach such assessments with sensitivity and a nuanced understanding of the group's beliefs and practices.

How do you refute the Jesus Only cult group on their teachings?

Hi,I was part of a Jesus Only group in India for about 1 year.In the begining I didnt realise it is a cult,as it looks like a pentecostal church.But slowly i realised that it is a cult deviating from the word of God 'The Holy Bible'.The "pastors" of the group try to have total control of your life..And they try to belittle every other church and servants of God from other churches.If you are already a part of such group get away from them.Its a very dangerous demon controlled group!you can read a detailed analysis of this group from the book "Jesus Only Churches"http://www.amazon.com/Jesus-Only-Churches-Calvin-Beisner/dp/0310488710
