Oh, I am so tired of the claim that LBC is a cult!

In cults, the leaders claim to have some secret knowledge or higher truth that they, alone, can share with the lower ranks.


All our knowledge is available straight from the Bible. Anybody can read it for themselves. All its truths are self-evident.


Read the Bible. Decide what you think about it. Come and go through its pages as you wish. Visit our website or not. How is that cultist?


If LBC is a cult than I guess Christianity is a cult? How many people make that claim? Maybe the Romans did in the first century, I don't know, I wasn't there.


I also wasn't there when the Bible was written, but I can pick it up and learn from it as I choose, that is not a cultist concept.


Obviously, we can't force people to read the Bible--because we are not a cult--but if someone wants to participate in discussions here without looking like an idiot--then it is highly recommended.


Sometimes I think that idiocy is a cult, but it could be simple epidemic. That's a discussion for a different thread, I suppose.


Excuse me while I go page through the book that holds all of my "cult's" "secret knowledge"-- the highest selling book in the world that has printed in pretty much every language ever spoken.
