The Real Issue Podcast: How to Recognize the Teachings of a Cult
When you hear the word "cult" many people think of Jonestown or the Branch Davidians. While there are different ways of looking at cults, from both the sociological and theological, the church is showing more and more signs of theological error coming in, ranging from New Age ideologies, historically heretical ideas. But a couple of the more popular cults are the Mormons and the Jehovah's Witnesses. While they use very similar terminologies to the Christian church, the meanings of those terms are foreign to historical Christian teaching.
On The Real Issue Podcast, Rob takes a look at these two cults from a theological angle using the mathematical operations (of addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division) to give you, the listener, an easy way of recognizing what the important differences are between historical Christian teaching and false teaching.
Rob also mentions two great resource ministries for you to go to for further research: Watchman Fellowship and The Apologetics Index. You can also check out Rob's website link page for more resources to assist you in learning more. If you have any questions please email us at [email protected].
Opening and closing music: Kerry Livgren, "One of Several Possible Musiks," "Ancient Wing". Mid show buffer music from "The Pagan Invasion." Commercials from The Real Issue Apologetics Ministry, and The One Minute Apologist with Bobby Conway and Dr. Richard G. Howe, "What is a Cult?"
