I am still confused. I know that the Holy Spirit is God. But Jesus says "But when He, the Spirit of Truth (the Truth-giving Spirit) comes, He will guide you into all the Truth (the whole, full Truth). For He will not speak His own message [on His own authority] ]; but He will tell whatever He hears [from the Father; He will give the message that has been given to Him], and He will announce and declare to you the things that are to come [that will happen in the future]. " John:16:13. What is the meaning of this word? Sometimes I wonder if the Holy Spirit is speaking? 😭😭😭 2) Worship the Holy Spirit? 3) Pray to the Holy Spirit?.. 😭😭😭😭😭
Hey, a student of high control groups here: i can't in short form explain how problematic and misguided this video is, but I feel that I have too. It uses flawed definitions and is very probable to act contra productive, convincing members that they are not in a cult as the definitions are too narrow and does not cover a big portion of high control systems. It also have too extreme definitions, alienating many who's group are not as explicit in their traits. I really recommend you taking down this vide and remaking it, after doing further research and gaining a bigger understanding of the phenomena. God bless you and all those who work with you!
Absolutely, i was in a cult for 3 years. Everything in this video is spot on. Especially the way you have to leave, dont look back, don't answer calls or texts and have absolutely no contact. The hardest part was feeling alone, your whole life changes. Took me about 2 years to finally feel free and started looking for God again. I was lead to this channel and Isaiah Saldivars channel, praise be to God for his love, mercy and grace.
I have a friend in Mohanji cult. She had to avoid all contact to her former boyfriend and other friends, who didnt join her cult Leader. The cult follow a Leader who claim to be God himself. His followers are not allowed to critizise the cult.
My ENTIRE family is Mormon, I was born into it. I moved out of state 900 miles away from my family and started going to a Christian church, one Sunday their was a special guest, John Ramirez and I was saved that day at 37 years old. 37 years of being brainwashed and my family 7 years later shoot down anything I speak about with the truth. We have soo many generational curses it sad 😢 God Bless you Vlad!! ❤️❤️❤️
I was raised in a church that had several of these tendencies. It is so sad when this is done in the name of Jesus. I am so thankful to be set free, and now have been given the Holy Spirit!!!
Wow! I left the cult 7 months ago and they still follow me. It’s exactly like you explained. It stripped me of my identity. It was a complete mind battle when I left. I didn’t realize it was a cult until God pulled me out.
Thank you so much Pastor Vlad. This is a factual, powerful video. I was in a very controlling cult many years ago. I'm so happy that the Lord saved me and I'm now baptized by the Holy Spirit. The gentle messages sent to me by the great comforter and guide of truth of the word validates EVERY word you say in this presentation. Thank you and Bless you every second of your life my friend!
Very good. Sounds similar to a relationship with a narcissist. Same tactics and same damage caused. Yes, run! You cannot love these people back to normal. You have to leave it in Gods hands.
You answered a question thru your first words. I was studying with a friend who is a Jehovas Witness, for a time, 2yrs. She expressed that they do not pray to Jesus since Jehova wants all their Adoration. So many false teachings. Why in the world would Our almighty God not desire us to love his son, our savior who by his blood covered our sin. Who came as God in human flesh. I am so thankful for my Jesus who, lives in me, who's holy spirit lives in me. Praise God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit
Amen! I have a 14 yr old daughter...her dad, my husband was sent back to his home country (Jamaica) ... A few yrs after he left, he joined the Jehovahs witnesses and he is severely delusional and totally falsely judgmental... He believes only JW's will make it to heaven and he also says he'll is a metaphor and that his Jehovah is a merciful God... He wouldn't and couldn't throw his children in such a place smh... No matter how hard I try to remind him of certain facts... He refuses to listen to anything aside from my the videos and false doctrine of demon's that he has unfortunately been sucked right into... He gets extremely vulgar and totally irrational including referring to me as a white trash jezebel whore God forgive him... All because I am trying to make him realize. I finally just stopped communicating with him altogether. I have just recently recovered from addiction to prescription narcotics and found my way back to my Jesus... Best I leave this in God's hands... Please pray for him...his name is Dennis Pryce I would greatly appreciate it and may God bless all who are reading this immensely and intensely! Jesus loves you!!
.....What makes it hard to leave is people in these types of groups is they are very loving and kind...You think you are ( The Ones) God's last day Remnant! Most of these groups are Not running around in black worshipping darkness.... They are like family. You attend funerals and weddings together... Christianity mixed in with Alot of works. And there always seems to be a leader. Even if that leader has been dead for many years....Grace and works mostly works. These groups love bomb you. When you are young and don't know your Bible and you have a chance you think (To be an Elite) ..... Cults like this hard to break from! ....But this brother Vlad gives Good advice!
This is great! My cousin is going through something like this. She was taken advantage of seeking the Lord but ended up with the wrong ppl. She's very paranoid and afraid now. She's also very concern about me ever since I became Christian, she thinks I'm in a cult. She won't listen and believes what I say about my experience with Jesus. Pray for her please 🙏🏽 thank you 🧡
Pastor Savchuk thank you for this very timely teaching as we have two people in our family who are in cults one is in Jehovah’s Witnesses and one is in The Hebrew Israelites. I share your videos on my social media accounts and there are people actually paying attention to and viewing your videos! So thank you and your family for your miraculous powerful teachings they are saving lives and bringing people to the truth of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ!♥️♥️♥️
I was born and brought up by a pentecostal pastor family from India, I was into that church for almost 23 years since my birth. I was baptised and dedicated in that church without knowing God , I felt I know God but I didn't. The most sad thing is almost 70 people from my own family are still there in that church and I am the only one came out of it. I am battling with this for the past 4 years now. My parents who claim them to be the pastors and they think they speak tongues doesn't even have the assurance of salvation and they don't have any salvation experience which they can say or testify. My next generation( cousin brothers and sisters are into this and they think they are the one who gets into heaven and they have special seat as because the are from this church. Their parents are teaching them these things. I am still getting delivered for the past 2 years since 2020 January 1. For the first time after accepting the lord and leaving that church and attending a bible teaching church on the new year of 2020 I came to know I was demonized by those spirits that was in action in that church and they want me to go back. Leave my ministry and draw me back to that church. My parents and relative are still praying for me to get back to that church. I stopped speaking to them because the moment i start to converse to them(my parents and family members)these spirits are trying to influence me and my thoughts.kindly hold me in your prayers Pastor Vlad. Because this church is wide spread in India(I am from India). About they have 200 branches and literally lakhs of people into this. Without knowing where they are going. One day in my prayer I had revelations that the founder after naming me he is taking me to a place looks like a Hindu sanctuary and laying me in front it. That Is when I came to know that demons of Hindu religion is behind this cultic organization. Pray that my family people has to get delivered and they should come out of this church. I found almost all the signs are found in this church. Thank you pastor vlad. I am listening to you for the past 4 years and I don't know its kind of a coincidence that my mentor,you and pastor David diga are all of same age. All you three people helped and are helping me to be a true follower of Jesus Christ,my Lord.
I was in a cult. A recruiter in fact. They had a form of godliness and excused the pastors shortcomings cause he is human. He is charismatic and that church loved their pastor but didn't know God. My family and I left and warn people of churches like that on my channel
Sadly, some churches are like this too. #8 is something many churches need to change. Good teaching and accountability are extremely important. Christians need to want to know the truth and STUDY the word for themselves.
Thank you for sharing this. I think I may have joined a cult. The leaders are highly focused on excessive prayer, there is also no financial transparency. They also openly criticise ex members and compare themselves to other Churches. We are also told to not watch other preachers on TH-cam. It’s all coming together now.
Iwas in cult forc19 years in the international church of Christ everything you said that been 10 years that im out in normal baptist évangélique church now love And forgivness of Jésus and Délivrance!
I queintly leave the church because of false teaching I don't want any unecessary fights with them..... I believe silence is powerful, I don't have any regrets. I don't want to inform them,
Relate to this kind of system in the church lead by Korean Pastor who claimed to be annointed one and apostle of Christ...I am now set free from them...thanks be to God.
I was once a part of a baptist cult. everything that you have said is exactly what the leader of that church has done and is continuously doing except for the fact that they believe that salvation is only of the LORD JESUS and not of good works. the leader of that church committed adultery with a married member and they had a son. that leader was never disciplined because he has complete control of the church being a baptist church that is so hell bent on independence it's not under the supervision of any church nor even its mother church. the leader said that he is only accountable to Christ and not the church and so he only needs to ask for forgiveness from Christ and still should be the leader of the church because he is God's annointed. the leader is up to this day pastoring the same church although it's under a different name now. i thank God that i am no longer part of that church.
Jesus is coming back!! Amen. God is merciful. He always forgives. Never be ashamed to take your failures to him. He is for you, not against you! God is with you in the storm. He knows your troubles, he hears you! He is for you, on your side, always! It may feel silent at times, but he’s holding you close! May the Lord return soon! We are drawing closer. He is coming! Believe and trust in the Lord, you will be saved. Period. May the Lord bless you all! Hang in there family. Stay strong. It is not easy following the Lord. We are scoffed at. We give up our earthly dreams, our fleshly desires. What the enemy offers is short lived, but heaven is forever! Life may seem or be unfair, but God is with you! Always remember that. Things may get better or worse for you, but a kingdom awaits you! Finish the race! Repent daily and carry your cross. This world is fading fast. Your troubles are temporary! New channel here, I’d appreciate any kind of support. Don’t give up! God loves you so much! So do I. The Lord bless you!
Amen to the Truth of God's in Jesus's. Amen in order to choose safe path in God's PLAN of Salvation in Jesus's All Glory be to God forever. Amen n God bless. Shalom❤🇮🇱
I left a church today after months of seeing some off signs. I knew it was time to leave as I would have caused division if I spoke my mind. The teaching today 'coincidentally' silenced me when people asked me why I was going. The pastor warned that people who criticise the church cause division. Quoting bible verses to say you won't be blessed. God is watching. The Church is watching. There is only ONE leader and he is who you go to to discuss issues with the church, not anyone else. God does not bless people who speak evil. You reap what you sow etc etc....threatening language to the church but I couldn't help but feel this was for me. Elders and false prophets were the worst. As I left I was accused of being a serial church shopper, having childhood issues, not really hearing God when I said He has been telling me for months to pull out of the church to be close to Him. I didn't say anything against the church. I was too happy to be feeling closer to the Lord than I've felt in a long time and am excited to be free.
Thank you so much! Great advice there is so many false teachings out there so we do have to be so careful to anyone reading this always remember Jesus it the name of the Lord Amen and Amen, Jesus ltrust in youand you alone please save your children from any ocults in Jesus mighty name Amen 🙏🏼 🌹🙏🏼🌹🙏🏼🌹🙏🏼🌹🙏🏼🌹🙏🏼🌹🙏🏼🌹🙏🏼🌹🙏🏼🌹🙏🏼🌹🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🙏
I found myself in one at a rehab in Denver. We were not allowed to see or speak to family or outside people. We has harsh disciplines called TOOTHBRUSH people had to walk on they're knees pray out loud and clean baseboards. In the process causing burns on the knees. I want to expose them so bad.
I need help. I escaped from a Christian cult 10 years ago but now I'm back for my family and I'm not sure I'm safe. But I don't want to leave my mother alone in this to die. I need people who can stand with me in prayer
@@southerngal9374 Wow! yeah.. the things that God has brought us through. I was feeling very unsafe at this time but I'm glad to say that things have reasonably evened out
Thank u ,very much for these great teaching ,am realy blessed.,and also thankimg u for the prayerd offers ,may thy Lord bless u and.the ministry ,of the gospel of our.Lord and savour Jesus Christ ,
The guy who is an American citizen that was just released from a Russian prison recounted how they deprived him of uninterrupted sleep. That has an effect on your peace of mind.
Hey Pastor Vlad! I got an email yesterday that a member of your ministry is coming to my country, Romania and wanted to ask if there is any way I can help
Thanks for this information, I was in cult churchs for 20 years and we were not allowed to share money with our relatives as they were called "goats" or just people of God not children of God or sometimes they were called Egyptian 😂😂😂 every thing we do we must report to them.
God bless your message, and the insight it is opening in my mind as you speak. Definitely seeing several attributes you describe in the preciseness of teaching, from someone who aspires to take aggressive control of my method and direction of worship. Feels like gaslighting and manipulation more than direction to be convicted by the Lord’s word. As you continue speaking, it was required i cut off my friends for sinning regardless of their faith, but his sinner friends were ok. Aren’t we all sinners and aren’t we all supposed to help each other get to heaven?
This video helped me understand the group that kicked me out a year ago. I was living with them and i was told i didn't have Holy Spirit and i became homeless for a season of time. I was going through a mixture of not wanting to "lose" them and at the time i was struggling with abandonment and rejection spirit while in denial i allowed myself to get brainwashed into a low key Christain cult for several years. I had so many people warning me they were a cult but i just didn't believe it because i thought they were "true disciples". When i was in the group i felt like we were the "remnants of Christ" and everyone else was the enemy outside the group and we all trama bonded over spiritual abuse from churches we all went to and i had no idea i was bonding with people who didn't approve of church communities. I was told they are all demonic...i still feel weird calling them a cult and i feel more comfortable calling them a religious group because they didn't have "the extreme cases", but i knew something was off... thank you Vlad for this video.
@@kawhi752 I am trying to understand what you mean by this question. I didn't ask permission from anyone. God saved me from this group that was making me try to think like they do and it was very religious. They didn't agree with what God was sharing with me, and they didn't like my repentance because it was exposing others to needing to repent for a wrong mindset... there was a lot of uncomfortable moments, but when I told them the truth their decision was to have me leave because there was one particular person who didn't like I was earnestly repenting of something they still were going through within their personal life, and I was coming out of that wilderness... That's the best answer I can give. I'm better off that God cut them off from me 🙂
Certainly. If it is an oppressive environment where accountability and manipulation are the order of the day, especially when the leader is like a god, you're dealing with a cult.
shame is one of their tactics. If you're a laughing stock to the people, they'll look at you in that way. It's not in how people view me that defines who I am, bt christ in me.
Exactly my thoughts. The field of Christianity is full of weed seeds sown by the enemy, satan, through human flesh. That is why there are 30000+ denominations. Back in Jesus' first coming, there were also several Judaism sects and were they orthodox? Far from it. Jesus was the real deal. Today, Christianity has become like 2000 years ago. The same spirits of the devil are working happily in the traditional churches. Dont get me wrong, God is real, Jesus is real... the day will come when Jesus will put everything in order again, according to the book of Revelation.
I do not feel a need to leave one Christian cult simply to jump into another - for me that is a 'salvation by Jesus' merry go round. I do not feel any evidence of my Original Sin, so I do not believe it, thus I don't need any Saving from it. This video offers some good advice about getting out of a cult, but there is no need to rush into a replacement, driven by one's "neediness." Once out, spend some time getting to know yourself, to appreciate the Self. Introspection, routine work, good diet and rest, journalling and empty-minded meditations will help uncover what areas of your life need attention. You may even find yourself exactly where you need to be, and achieve happiness and life purpose with no cult or religion at all. The 'negative' emotions are not to be suppressed, but rather are signposts, indicating where we need healing. So feel whatever it is that comes up - shame, guilt, rejection, fear, anger, loneliness, etc. Understand that self-blaming and self-punishment keeps us stuck. Know that love and acceptance of self heals, as does constructive thinking and taking action to address issues. Trust your inner wisdom. Do some secular fun stuff. Build friendships. In short, be loving and love being, and that is enough.
Ask the members if the pastor tells them what to do inside their homes. If so, RUN. Pastors have no authority over homes. He only guides and no more. God gave us free will. No pastor can take that away.
With more than 30,000 denominations among Christianity all deeming to be orthodox, it makes one wonder who the cults really are. Back in Jesus' days, Judaism also had several groups and when Jesus came, He called the Jews out of the Judaism and their traditions. Were the various religious groups (Pharisees, Sadducces, Teachers of the law, Herodians, Zealots) really the orthodox? No. The same is happening today. After 2000 years since Christ ascended to heaven, the field of Christianity is full of weed seeds. Read Matthew 13:36-43.
I am a member of The Church of Jesus of Latter Day Saint. Otherwise called the Mormon church. Please, I would that you get to know them better. I love your teachings there’s no difference
i tried warning them about secular music, everyone started lashing out on me and told me : as a new christian, you are not to lead the rest. this behavior can mean you are or can possibly become under the spell of the devil. im like brah, i try to WARN you guys because secular music is FROM THE DEVIL, why would i be from the devil and then warn you about what actually is from the devil? does this even make sense? left that group instantly.

Yes, I had to completely cut ties also (which I don't like to do) but was necessary because if not it's a way to be pulled back.
I was 22 years I am still in the healing process. I have many backslash. It’s really difficult because u loose ur friends
U feel so lonely later
I have a friend in Mohanji cult. She had to avoid all contact to her former boyfriend and other friends, who didnt join her cult Leader. The cult follow a Leader who claim to be God himself. His followers are not allowed to critizise the cult.

God bless you. Big hugs.
lds is nutty brother that term freemason
It sounds like you went from one to another
I was raised in a church that had several of these tendencies. It is so sad when this is done in the name of Jesus. I am so thankful to be set free, and now have been given the Holy Spirit!!!
Wow! I left the cult 7 months ago and they still follow me. It’s exactly like you explained. It stripped me of my identity. It was a complete mind battle when I left. I didn’t realize it was a cult until God pulled me out.

Hope you make a full recovery and may the lord Jesus bless you on your journey
come back 12 tribes isreal the bakery needs muffins yellowdeli
You described Mormonism to the finest point. I was Mormon for 32 years. Thank God I’ve been out for 4 years now.
Thank you so much Pastor Vlad. This is a factual, powerful video. I was in a very controlling cult many years ago. I'm so happy that the Lord saved me and I'm now baptized by the Holy Spirit. The gentle messages sent to me by the great comforter and guide of truth of the word validates EVERY word you say in this presentation. Thank you and Bless you every second of your life my friend!
I think cults can be a bit more low key sometimes and not as obvious
This is very true
Very true. This is the extreme but you can certainly apply in it a lesser scale.
Yes my sister is home an I was different then what I've watch on here.... God I hope she's still alive.....
As someone who might be trapped in one, yes they can
Especially cults that revolve around Abrahamic religions.
Very good. Sounds similar to a relationship with a narcissist. Same tactics and same damage caused.
Yes, run! You cannot love these people back to normal.
You have to leave it in Gods hands.
Truth. Amen.
You answered a question thru your first words. I was studying with a friend who is a Jehovas Witness, for a time, 2yrs. She expressed that they do not pray to Jesus since
Jehova wants all their
Adoration. So many false teachings. Why in the world would Our almighty
God not desire us to love his son, our savior who by his blood covered our sin. Who came as God in human flesh.
I am so thankful for my Jesus who, lives in me, who's holy spirit lives in me. Praise God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit
I come from a Jehovah's witness family and don't have contact with any of them sadly. They are under mind control
Amen! I have a 14 yr old daughter...her dad, my husband was sent back to his home country (Jamaica) ... A few yrs after he left, he joined the Jehovahs witnesses and he is severely delusional and totally falsely judgmental... He believes only JW's will make it to heaven and he also says he'll is a metaphor and that his Jehovah is a merciful God... He wouldn't and couldn't throw his children in such a place smh... No matter how hard I try to remind him of certain facts... He refuses to listen to anything aside from my the videos and false doctrine of demon's that he has unfortunately been sucked right into...
He gets extremely vulgar and totally irrational including referring to me as a white trash jezebel whore God forgive him... All because I am trying to make him realize. I finally just stopped communicating with him altogether.
I have just recently recovered from addiction to prescription narcotics and found my way back to my Jesus... Best I leave this in God's hands... Please pray for him...his name is Dennis Pryce
I would greatly appreciate it and may God bless all who are reading this immensely and intensely! Jesus loves you!!
So since that what have achieved
This is the best explanation of cult experience... it took many many years to be free. Trust is huge risk. 12 years later finally free.
This is the day that the Lord has made let us rejoice and be glad in it Amen 🌝🙏👏🙌
I was born into Jehovah’s Witnesses- I have severe religious trauma and have lost all my family and friends including my own daughter
.....What makes it hard to leave is people in these types of groups is they are very loving and kind...You think you are ( The Ones) God's last day Remnant! Most of these groups are Not running around in black worshipping darkness.... They are like family. You attend funerals and weddings together... Christianity mixed in with Alot of works. And there always seems to be a leader. Even if that leader has been dead for many years....Grace and works mostly works. These groups love bomb you. When you are young and don't know your Bible and you have a chance you think (To be an Elite) ..... Cults like this hard to break from! ....But this brother Vlad gives Good advice!
So so true.
Father deliver those who are in and doesn't no they are and have mercy on them 📖🧎♀️🛡🔥🔥
in Jesus' name.
My brother and sister are in a deep cult, i always pray for them and may God help them walk away from it
I’m so sorry 😞
This is great! My cousin is going through something like this. She was taken advantage of seeking the Lord but ended up with the wrong ppl. She's very paranoid and afraid now. She's also very concern about me ever since I became Christian, she thinks I'm in a cult. She won't listen and believes what I say about my experience with Jesus. Pray for her please 🙏🏽 thank you 🧡
Praying for you and your cousin, keep the faith! Jesus is with us! 💕
I pray that our Lord Jesus Christ restores her love , faith and trust in Him .💖
There are a lot of counterfeit groups who impersonate the real deal to scam people.
Pastor Savchuk thank you for this very timely teaching as we have two people in our family who are in cults one is in Jehovah’s Witnesses and one is in The Hebrew Israelites. I share your videos on my social media accounts and there are people actually paying attention to and viewing your videos! So thank you and your family for your miraculous powerful teachings they are saving lives and bringing people to the truth of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ!♥️♥️♥️
Check out Vocab Malone for the Hebrew Israelites thing.
I was born and brought up by a pentecostal pastor family from India, I was into that church for almost 23 years since my birth. I was baptised and dedicated in that church without knowing God , I felt I know God but I didn't. The most sad thing is almost 70 people from my own family are still there in that church and I am the only one came out of it. I am battling with this for the past 4 years now. My parents who claim them to be the pastors and they think they speak tongues doesn't even have the assurance of salvation and they don't have any salvation experience which they can say or testify. My next generation( cousin brothers and sisters are into this and they think they are the one who gets into heaven and they have special seat as because the are from this church. Their parents are teaching them these things. I am still getting delivered for the past 2 years since 2020 January 1. For the first time after accepting the lord and leaving that church and attending a bible teaching church on the new year of 2020 I came to know I was demonized by those spirits that was in action in that church and they want me to go back. Leave my ministry and draw me back to that church. My parents and relative are still praying for me to get back to that church. I stopped speaking to them because the moment i start to converse to them(my parents and family members)these spirits are trying to influence me and my thoughts.kindly hold me in your prayers Pastor Vlad. Because this church is wide spread in India(I am from India). About they have 200 branches and literally lakhs of people into this. Without knowing where they are going. One day in my prayer I had revelations that the founder after naming me he is taking me to a place looks like a Hindu sanctuary and laying me in front it. That Is when I came to know that demons of Hindu religion is behind this cultic organization. Pray that my family people has to get delivered and they should come out of this church.
I found almost all the signs are found in this church.
Thank you pastor vlad. I am listening to you for the past 4 years and I don't know its kind of a coincidence that my mentor,you and pastor David diga are all of same age. All you three people helped and are helping me to be a true follower of Jesus Christ,my Lord.
Praying for you!
What's the name of that your family church
This sounds like a CPM church
I was in a cult. A recruiter in fact. They had a form of godliness and excused the pastors shortcomings cause he is human. He is charismatic and that church loved their pastor but didn't know God. My family and I left and warn people of churches like that on my channel
Sadly, some churches are like this too. #8 is something many churches need to change. Good teaching and accountability are extremely important. Christians need to want to know the truth and STUDY the word for themselves.
Thank you *so much* for this 😪 To hear it in simple terms like that really helps.
I need deliverance from this. I just got out of the ugliest cult with a man I was gonna marry
Your videos are such a gift to so many. God bless you and your family vlad. Thank you Lord.
Thank you for sharing this. I think I may have joined a cult. The leaders are highly focused on excessive prayer, there is also no financial transparency. They also openly criticise ex members and compare themselves to other Churches. We are also told to not watch other preachers on TH-cam. It’s all coming together now.
I was in a cult for almost 6-7 months until I realized that it was all wrong that I did but I pray that Jesus will bring me back my lost identity..
I was in an IFB-very cult like. This is so spot on,ty Vlad.
Thank you for this insightful teaching pastor vlad!
Iwas in cult forc19 years in the international church of Christ everything you said that been 10 years that im out in normal baptist évangélique church now love
And forgivness of Jésus and Délivrance!
Crazy to see a cult leader taking about how to know if your in a cult…..
Very informative and enlightening
Thank you Jesus Christ 🔥🔥🔥
You're welcome I guess. 😎

I queintly leave the church because of false teaching I don't want any unecessary fights with them..... I believe silence is powerful, I don't have any regrets.
I don't want to inform them,
Same here
@@jpxtreme7421 when you withdraw quietly you serve yourself from unecessarry fights
Agreed.
Relate to this kind of system in the church lead by Korean Pastor who claimed to be annointed one and apostle of Christ...I am now set free from them...thanks be to God.
Extremely helpful as well as encouraging to discern and assist others if these things are picked up on. Definately sharing this. God bless🙏🏾🙏🏾
You have described the cult of christianity perfectly! 'There are none so blind as those who will not see'
Iglesia Ni Cristo from the Philippines, founded by the Manalo, meets all these signs of a cult 10/10!
I was once a part of a baptist cult. everything that you have said is exactly what the leader of that church has done and is continuously doing except for the fact that they believe that salvation is only of the LORD JESUS and not of good works. the leader of that church committed adultery with a married member and they had a son. that leader was never disciplined because he has complete control of the church being a baptist church that is so hell bent on independence it's not under the supervision of any church nor even its mother church. the leader said that he is only accountable to Christ and not the church and so he only needs to ask for forgiveness from Christ and still should be the leader of the church because he is God's annointed. the leader is up to this day pastoring the same church although it's under a different name now. i thank God that i am no longer part of that church.
Thank you so much for this brother Vlad
Someone tried to pull me into a cult ... Praise God for people ike you being used as vessels! God Bless you! ♥
This video helped me so much. Thank you
Jesus is coming back!! Amen. God is merciful. He always forgives. Never be ashamed to take your failures to him. He is for you, not against you! God is with you in the storm. He knows your troubles, he hears you! He is for you, on your side, always! It may feel silent at times, but he’s holding you close! May the Lord return soon! We are drawing closer. He is coming! Believe and trust in the Lord, you will be saved. Period. May the Lord bless you all! Hang in there family. Stay strong. It is not easy following the Lord. We are scoffed at. We give up our earthly dreams, our fleshly desires. What the enemy offers is short lived, but heaven is forever! Life may seem or be unfair, but God is with you! Always remember that. Things may get better or worse for you, but a kingdom awaits you! Finish the race! Repent daily and carry your cross. This world is fading fast. Your troubles are temporary! New channel here, I’d appreciate any kind of support. Don’t give up! God loves you so much! So do I. The Lord bless you!
Amen, praise King Jesus! 🙌🏻❤️
Great message Isaiah! I pray anyone who is healing from being involved in a cult and all the pain and deception reads your message. Powerful truth.

Amen to the Truth of God's in Jesus's. Amen in order to choose safe path in God's PLAN of Salvation in Jesus's All Glory be to God forever. Amen n God bless. Shalom❤🇮🇱
I left a church today after months of seeing some off signs. I knew it was time to leave as I would have caused division if I spoke my mind. The teaching today 'coincidentally' silenced me when people asked me why I was going. The pastor warned that people who criticise the church cause division. Quoting bible verses to say you won't be blessed. God is watching. The Church is watching. There is only ONE leader and he is who you go to to discuss issues with the church, not anyone else. God does not bless people who speak evil. You reap what you sow etc etc....threatening language to the church but I couldn't help but feel this was for me.
Elders and false prophets were the worst. As I left I was accused of being a serial church shopper, having childhood issues, not really hearing God when I said He has been telling me for months to pull out of the church to be close to Him. I didn't say anything against the church. I was too happy to be feeling closer to the Lord than I've felt in a long time and am excited to be free.
It’s been 7 months and I had to move out of my home of 13 years because they wouldn’t leave me alone
Praise the Lord my brother in Christ
I run and didnt look back. God has used me to help others run too.
Wow brother! So good! Thank you for sharing.
Thank you so much! Great advice there is so many false teachings out there so we do have to be so careful to anyone reading this always remember Jesus it the name of the Lord Amen and Amen, Jesus ltrust in youand you alone please save your children from any ocults in Jesus mighty name Amen 🙏🏼 🌹🙏🏼🌹🙏🏼🌹🙏🏼🌹🙏🏼🌹🙏🏼🌹🙏🏼🌹🙏🏼🌹🙏🏼🌹🙏🏼🌹🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🙏
Such a good message. Need to speak to kids and grandkids about these signs to look for.
Thank you Pastor Vlad
I found myself in one at a rehab in Denver. We were not allowed to see or speak to family or outside people. We has harsh disciplines called TOOTHBRUSH people had to walk on they're knees pray out loud and clean baseboards. In the process causing burns on the knees. I want to expose them so bad.
I almost joined one...the masons thank God he put it in my mind to listen and I didn't join thank GOD
You were truly saved.Thank God you listened. Praise His wonderful name.❤
I need help. I escaped from a Christian cult 10 years ago but now I'm back for my family and I'm not sure I'm safe. But I don't want to leave my mother alone in this to die. I need people who can stand with me in prayer
Hope you and your family are now safe!
@@southerngal9374 Wow! yeah.. the things that God has brought us through. I was feeling very unsafe at this time but I'm glad to say that things have reasonably evened out

The guy who is an American citizen that was just released from a Russian prison recounted how they deprived him of uninterrupted sleep. That has an effect on your peace of mind.
Amen!! Praise be to Lord God Jehovah!!

Thank you very much Pastor Vlad
Hey Pastor Vlad! I got an email yesterday that a member of your ministry is coming to my country, Romania and wanted to ask if there is any way I can help
Good job this is an excellent video. Thank you for what you do.
The US Military fits into all of these signs!!
great video, thank you for the info
Thanks for this information, I was in cult churchs for 20 years and we were not allowed to share money with our relatives as they were called "goats" or just people of God not children of God or sometimes they were called Egyptian 😂😂😂 every thing we do we must report to them.
Connected from 🇬🇧
The first 50 seconds is a perfect description of Jesus.
😅
Is it possible the leader doesn’t know he’s a cult leader?
Good question
Yes it is often true that the cult leader doesn't recognize his own creation of the cult. Vlad is a good example of this
Thank you for sharing this it's important on account cults are dangerous 2John 1:7:8:9,
Thank you Vlad
Yep I was in a cult
Tres Dias is one! The antithesis of Biblical teaching.
God bless your message, and the insight it is opening in my mind as you speak. Definitely seeing several attributes you describe in the preciseness of teaching, from someone who aspires to take aggressive control of my method and direction of worship. Feels like gaslighting and manipulation more than direction to be convicted by the Lord’s word. As you continue speaking, it was required i cut off my friends for sinning regardless of their faith, but his sinner friends were ok. Aren’t we all sinners and aren’t we all supposed to help each other get to heaven?
This is good overall. I wish that you would have had provided scriptures for each points.
There's lots of scripture. Read 2 Peter 2 and 3 for starters 😊 Ask Holy Spirit to guide you to more, in the name of Jesus.
Most of these aspects could also apply to some schools, universities, fraternities/sororities, and of course crazy religious organization.
This video helped me understand the group that kicked me out a year ago. I was living with them and i was told i didn't have Holy Spirit and i became homeless for a season of time. I was going through a mixture of not wanting to "lose" them and at the time i was struggling with abandonment and rejection spirit while in denial i allowed myself to get brainwashed into a low key Christain cult for several years. I had so many people warning me they were a cult but i just didn't believe it because i thought they were "true disciples". When i was in the group i felt like we were the "remnants of Christ" and everyone else was the enemy outside the group and we all trama bonded over spiritual abuse from churches we all went to and i had no idea i was bonding with people who didn't approve of church communities. I was told they are all demonic...i still feel weird calling them a cult and i feel more comfortable calling them a religious group because they didn't have "the extreme cases", but i knew something was off... thank you Vlad for this video.
Did u ask permision to go out from this church?
@@kawhi752 I am trying to understand what you mean by this question. I didn't ask permission from anyone. God saved me from this group that was making me try to think like they do and it was very religious. They didn't agree with what God was sharing with me, and they didn't like my repentance because it was exposing others to needing to repent for a wrong mindset... there was a lot of uncomfortable moments, but when I told them the truth their decision was to have me leave because there was one particular person who didn't like I was earnestly repenting of something they still were going through within their personal life, and I was coming out of that wilderness... That's the best answer I can give. I'm better off that God cut them off from me 🙂
This was my experience too! I could have written the same. I experienced a lot of abuse leaving also.
Do NOT contact the leader!! Go!!
Thank-you!
Just so you are aware there are also female cult leaders, and there seems to be more of them these days as well. Be careful out there.
Amen I knew I was seeing this in certain environments. I have a question can a community have a cult like setting?
Certainly. If it is an oppressive environment where accountability and manipulation are the order of the day, especially when the leader is like a god, you're dealing with a cult.
@@KiRetteCouture Thank you so much for responding I feel like I'm by myself seeing stuff from the outside looking in.
@@helenwashington6212 some of that stuff can make you question yourself.
Yes. MLM businesses implement many cult-like tactics. A corporation can be a major breeding ground for these behaviors.
Thank you 🙏🏽 🎉
I feel like I'm in a cult... I don't know what to do
MLMs, church cults and narcissistic relationships use the exact same tactics.
shame is one of their tactics. If you're a laughing stock to the people, they'll look at you in that way. It's not in how people view me that defines who I am, bt christ in me.
What do religious churches have in common with a cult church? maybe quite a few!
Exactly my thoughts. The field of Christianity is full of weed seeds sown by the enemy, satan, through human flesh. That is why there are 30000+ denominations. Back in Jesus' first coming, there were also several Judaism sects and were they orthodox? Far from it. Jesus was the real deal. Today, Christianity has become like 2000 years ago. The same spirits of the devil are working happily in the traditional churches. Dont get me wrong, God is real, Jesus is real... the day will come when Jesus will put everything in order again, according to the book of Revelation.
I do not feel a need to leave one Christian cult simply to jump into another - for me that is a 'salvation by Jesus' merry go round.
I do not feel any evidence of my Original Sin, so I do not believe it, thus I don't need any Saving from it.
This video offers some good advice about getting out of a cult, but there is no need to rush into a replacement, driven by one's "neediness." Once out, spend some time getting to know yourself, to appreciate the Self.
Introspection, routine work, good diet and rest, journalling and empty-minded meditations will help uncover what areas of your life need attention. You may even find yourself exactly where you need to be, and achieve happiness and life purpose with no cult or religion at all. The 'negative' emotions are not to be suppressed, but rather are signposts, indicating where we need healing. So feel whatever it is that comes up - shame, guilt, rejection, fear, anger, loneliness, etc. Understand that self-blaming and self-punishment keeps us stuck. Know that love and acceptance of self heals, as does constructive thinking and taking action to address issues. Trust your inner wisdom. Do some secular fun stuff. Build friendships.
In short, be loving and love being, and that is enough.
The only cult that "claims to be Christians" but lies from their indoctrinations are Jehovah's witnesses
Ask the members if the pastor tells them what to do inside their homes. If so, RUN. Pastors have no authority over homes. He only guides and no more. God gave us free will. No pastor can take that away.
Excellent
Thank you.
I was in the Unification Church for over 25 years :(
Starts at 3:33
With more than 30,000 denominations among Christianity all deeming to be orthodox, it makes one wonder who the cults really are. Back in Jesus' days, Judaism also had several groups and when Jesus came, He called the Jews out of the Judaism and their traditions. Were the various religious groups (Pharisees, Sadducces, Teachers of the law, Herodians, Zealots) really the orthodox? No. The same is happening today. After 2000 years since Christ ascended to heaven, the field of Christianity is full of weed seeds. Read Matthew 13:36-43.
I am a member of The Church of Jesus of Latter Day Saint. Otherwise called the Mormon church. Please, I would that you get to know them better. I love your teachings there’s no difference
Lds are cult? Teachings lol riddler your conffrence like riddles. Lds cult he just explained
I was in a cult this is spot on!!! Liberty Turnipseed has a TH-cam channel this is how she works behind the scenes!!
What are your thoughts on Gino Jennings?
i tried warning them about secular music, everyone started lashing out on me and told me : as a new christian, you are not to lead the rest. this behavior can mean you are or can possibly become under the spell of the devil. im like brah, i try to WARN you guys because secular music is FROM THE DEVIL, why would i be from the devil and then warn you about what actually is from the devil? does this even make sense? left that group instantly.
