I experienced one cultish group within the past couple of years. On one hand, I'm grateful, because I learned alot and it's helped me first recognize and second avoid others of the same mindset. I'm also grateful because for some reason, we weren't sucked into that weirdness. I believe it's because of our firm foundation in Torah that "saved" us form the mess. It also honed my discernment and I learned to listen to that discerning quality more frequently. I wish we didn't go through it because it was a REALLY bad time in my life.
Slade and I have seen things differently on obeying God for quite awhile now and it hasn't changed. If anything, understanding has become clearer and we have become free.

I hear you Kay and I do seek to obey the Royal Law through Christ. I know you and Slade see things differently right now. I don't know your testimony but can empathize if you have experienced cultish groups because I've been through that and have observed some of the same. Real under Shepherds who lead rather than drive or control are few and far between but there is a real and walking after the Spirit is not just an illusion.

Then why not obey His perfect Law?? If He doesn't play and He says what He means....when He says DON'T, why do we say...oh, that was for then but not now? If He says DO, why don't we? If He says those things, would He be setting us up to fail at something He knows we simply can't do? Kay

What if I don't believe that God is "open structured and theologically flexible?" even though He is unwilling for any to perish and even if His mercy does endure forever... He don't play - He says what He means and means what He says so why play fast and loose with His Words.
