Why MOST Cults ARE Dangerous for Their Followers and for the World

Cults are destructive in nature.   I can still remember Jim Jones and Jonestown.  I can remember David Koresh and the Branch Davidians.  Cults will often amass some kind of arsenal they feel they need to fight the authorities.  And a cult has a kind of “prophet” figure who communicates directly with God.  ANY communication with God that is destructive in nature is NOT of God, but is of Satan.  ANY religion that is destructive of property and/or Human Life is satanic.  Voices that tell a person to do harm of ANY kind or be destructive and put Human Life at risk are voices of Satan and his demons.

I would go so far to suggest that ANY kind of “cult” that is a religion of Peace is of God so long as that Peace is REAL Peace and a NOT a false peace that will turn to dong harm or be destructive.  Peace only for the members of the cult and NOT for the world is a false Peace.  And some prophets will proclaim themselves as either the Messiah or some messianic figure that gets his or her instructions directly from God for the leadership of the cult. 

Then there is the misuse of money.  Money, power and sex seem to be the trademarks of cults.  I have said that God doesn’t care about sexual sins that do no harm.  We live in a world where violence is all around us, whether in movies or on TV or in video games, we are a society that celebrates violence and believes that any kind of sexual behavior apart from marriage is NOT of God.  We try to hide sex, but we put violence out in the open.  I have said that ANY sexual sin that does NO harm of ANY kind God will allow.  What God won’t allow is rape and violence of ANY kind.  I make rapists not much higher on the social scale than child killers.  A man capable of rape is capable of murder.

But what matters to God the most is Human Life.  I have said that Human Life begins at the VERY instant of creation and from that point forward EVERY Human Life belongs to no one except God Himself.  We are all born with a light inside of us and this light goes out and is forever extinguished when one purposely takes a Human Life.  I have also said that Nicodemus was not saved when he came to Jesus that night because he was guilty of having taken Human Life and that there is no way he could have re-entered into his mother’s womb to be born again.  It was impossible for him, since as a leader of the Pharisees, he had to have taken Human Life to become a leader, as it is impossible for ANY person to be born anew or have his or her lamp inside lit again once it has gone out by purposely taking Human Life.  I have said this is how I interpret the parables of Jesus based on Mark 4:13.  Jesus says that ALL His parables say the same thing.  That Message is that He died for EVERY single sin known to the Human Race EXCEPT for the sins of murder and suicide.  This is why I say that NOTHING matters more to God than Human Life.

I believe in the obedience of ALL laws because I say that the breaking of laws will land one in either jail or prison.  Either place can be a dangerous place whereby one might have to do violence to others in order to survive.  Cults often become anarchical in their teachings and even encourage the breaking of laws out of fear that laws constrain one or will prevent one from doing what one WANTS to do.  This is why many cults become violent in nature of why they even become more like terrorist groups against the government.  I believe in Peace at ALL times and that ANYTHING that threatens Human Life is NOT of God but of Satan.  I say that voices that are destructive in nature are NOT of God.  Satan is the god of destruction, chaos, and death.  He will do anything he can to motivate people to take Human Life.  I believe nothing is more important than Peace and living in Peace.  I say that God abhors violence of ANY kind.  He will forgive ALL other sins, including the sin of unbelief, but He cannot forgive those who purposely take Human Life.  I say that if EVERY person believed in Human Life there would be Peace in this world.  But I also say that due to the very nature of this world, there won’t be perfect Peace UNTIL the Messiah comes.

I say that I am NOT a prophet or the Messiah.  I say I have been given a Message for the world by Angels.  I say that the Messiah isn’t just coming, but I claim to know how He will judge when He arrives.  He will condemn ALL people to eternal damnation who have purposely taken Human Life and the rest of us alive at the time of His coming will see Him establish His Kingdom of Peace for the next one thousand years.  In my thinking He can’t come soon enough.  Peace.  Brother Ralphie
