1Peter 1:15-16  But as he which hath called you is holy, so be ye holy in all manner of conversation; Because it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy. 

I came across a list and was asked about different religions including Christianity as being a Cult.  Cult meaning as, a system of religious veneration and devotion directed toward a particular figure or object.  A relatively small group of people having religious beliefs or practices regarded by others as strange or sinister.   

Actually you will never find anything in The Holy Scriptures (Bible) calling us to be any of the religions you may see today...  including Christians or Christianity.  You can see in 1 Peter 1:15-16 what we are called to be, which is HOLY.  

2 Timothy 1:9  Who hath saved us, and called us with an holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given us in Christ Jesus before the world began...

We were called to be HOLY before the world even began, but man over time has introduced their own traditions and religions, of course spearheaded by Satan himself.  So now you find religions such as Catholics, Baptist, Muslims, Naturalists, Spiritualists, Mormons and the list goes on and on.  I am not saying that all people who are apart of these religions are bad or lost, many are simply distracted and blinded from the real truth and are being fed either watered down teachings of Gods Word or are being led into a false direction because of the teaching that go against the Teaching of the Prophets of old and the Apostles.

Their are many today, sitting in catholic churches, Apostolic churches, Mormon churches and so many more hungering for the Truth of God and yet they are being starved and they truly believe they are in the right place.  They are getting "some" teaching, but are being neglected from "ALL" the Truth that is written and this is a dangerous thing especially in these last days we live in.  We have to continue to reach out to them and by our fruits and obedience to Gods unchanging Truth in His Word we can save many who are still lost.

The Real Cult is the lies Satan has put out in the form of religions that are packed with false teaching by his false prophets.

Let us continue to renew our minds with the Truth of Gods Word while being directed by His Spirit, the RUACH EMTH (Sprit of Truth).
