In this episode of the Cultimatum Podcast, hosts Anonymous Andrew and Melody welcome Edgar Loera, a former member of the World Mission Society Church of God (WMSCOG). Edgar shares his personal journey of joining the cult at a young age, the manipulative recruitment tactics used by the organization, and the indoctrination process that isolates members from their families. He discusses the teachings of WMSCOG, including the belief in the second coming of Jesus and the importance of the Passover, and highlights the psychological control mechanisms that keep members trapped. In this conversation, Edgar shares his experiences with the World Mission Society Church of God, detailing the church's origins, its leadership dynamics, financial practices, and his personal journey of deconstruction from the cult. He discusses the teachings of Ahn Sahng-hong, the church's evolution, and the challenges he faced in reconciling his faith after leaving. Edgar emphasizes the importance of recognizing red flags in organizations and encourages thorough investigation before committing to any group.
