I am angry when the same men who say, "Save OUR children" bellow "Build more and bigger bombers." That's right! Blast the children in other nations into eternity, or limbless misery as they lay crippled from "OUR" bombers! This does not jell." - Leonard Ravenhill

Janice,
You have found a good place here at Tweb.. . . the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; . . . -- Romans 1:16 KJV
. . . that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures: . . . -- 1 Corinthians 15:3-4 KJV
Whosoever believeth that Jesus is the Christ is born of God: . . . -- 1 John 5:1 KJV

Perhaps even more importantly (she can answer this) is the pigheadedness and conduct of some of the Mormon "apologists" we had back then -- NRAJeff, Other Cheek, LDSTrue, Jo151363726543161176274, and others.
(It may take her a while to respond, as she's just moved back to start another semester of school.)Watch your links! http://www.theologyweb.com/campus/fa...corumetiquette

January 2014 the Tweb crew got her back up.. . . the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; . . . -- Romans 1:16 KJV

I'd say one of the red flags of a cult is if they don't allow questions. The truth has nothing to fear and everything to gain by questions and the search for knowledge. So, something fishy is going on if someone claims that any questions are evil.
Hypothetical conversation between me(cbw) and a potential cult leader(let's call him Bob).
Bob: My group is the only way one can be saved. It is the one true chrch.
CBW: Really? Why do you think that?
Bob: Because! Now stop asking stupid questions and just believe. Questions are of the devil!
CBW: Really? Prove it.
Bob: You are arrogant and must repent!
CBW: You seem like a cult leader to me...
Bob: Oh no! I'm not a cult leader. It's just that everyone else got it wrong! I am the only one that got it right!
CBW: There's plenty other people just you...If it weren't for the Resurrection of Jesus, we'd all be in DEEP TROUBLE!

I especially enjoyed the occasional warning to Mormons "not to read further, as it may be damaging to your faith".The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.
