“Once again, ApologeticsGroup.com has developed a scholarly presentation addressing a vital current issue. This new production not only deals with how to identify The Marks of a Cult, but in its own right is a type of “mini-systematic theology” that will greatly benefit any individual or church group. I highly recommend it for a better understanding of cult beliefs and practice, as well as, developing your understanding of historic Christian theology.” — Dr. Kenneth G. Talbot, Executive Board, www.NiceneCouncil.com

In today’s religiously diverse and relativistic culture, labeling a group a cult may seem extreme to many people, not to mention rude. Even people who believe in absolute Truth and further believe that Jesus is the only way to eternal life can get confused about just what constitutes real Christianity. Just why are Baptists properly considered Christians, but Mormons are not? Or why is the Jehovah’s Witness religion classified as an anti-Christian cult while Presbyterians or Wesleyans or Pentecostals are simply seen as denominations within the Christian faith?

With the explosion of different sects that claim to honor and follow Jesus, how does one differentiate between true Biblical Christianity and an aberrant religious movement? Just what are “the marks of a cult?”

Join us for a journey into the heart of Biblical revelation and the constant struggle of truth against lies, the apostolic faith against the “doctrines of demons.”

This documentary from ApologeticsGroup.com does more than simply point fingers. It explains in great detail the absolute essentials of the Faith and just how and why Christians can properly and necessarily refer to certain sects as “cults.” Not only a tool for recognizing and understanding false teaching — and for reaching people held captive to it — The Marks of a Cult is also a powerful apologetic on the need for Christians to become more rooted in the Biblical historic faith, with its creeds and confessions, and to be better prepared to give “a defense to any one who calls you to account for the hope that is in you.” (1 Peter 3:15)

“…. who are the false prophets of our day? What makes John Calvin, Martin Luther and John Wesley orthodox Christians, but Mary Baker Eddy, my great aunt a heretic? The latest release from Jerry Johnson and ApologeticsGroup.com – The Marks of a Cult (DVD) will give you the tools that will help you, your Church, family and friends to know the differences between those who teach the “true faith” and those who are teaching false or cultic doctrine. I strongly recommend it for every Christian and every church. Rev. Thomas Eddy – PCA (Great grand nephew of Mary Baker Eddy, founder of Christian Science.)

“Let the haters hate, the mockers mock…..these videos are RIGHT ON!” – Comment from YouTube

“Great argument from Scripture. Congratulations NiceneCouncil. Please keep it coming.” – Comment from YouTube

“Well said and well done my brother. Thank you for sharing the truth.” – Comment from YouTube

Seeking to restore a right view of God’s sovereignty to the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ, the web-series Against the World, is extremely popular with 80,000+ views. We are convinced that true reformation and spiritual awakening will not come until the Church acknowledges that God is the author and finisher not only of our faith, but of history and we hope to stand contra mundum (Against the World) while spreading this message. With 45 episodes, Season 1 of Against the World is a must have for your library.

Witnesses of Jehovah:

This film goes behind the scenes to reveal how the Watchtower Society holds tyrannical control over the lives of its 3,400,000 members. The Watchtower is “big business.” In the United States alone, over 1,200,000 Jehovah’s Witnesses spend more than 184 million man-hours each year peddling a counterfeit gospel door-to-door. The incredible sales organization and the devastating impact it has on the lives of people who “buy” its deceptive line is the subject of this hard-hitting investigative film.

From the Preface:

Having leaders at once sagacious and unscrupulous, they have long managed to avoid whatever contact would weaken their organization. We have seen them, from small and obscure beginnings, rise to a strength sufficient to create a local rebellion in Missouri; transplanted thence to Illinois, rise to a threatening power; transplanted again, flourish rapidly for a while, and though now evidently on the decline, yet strong enough to create a difficult and delicate political problem, and like the Bohon Upas, overshadow a whole Territory with a deadly influence.

Scattered through the nation Mormonism would be the weakest of all religions; collected into one Territory, and ruling there with almost absolute power, they present a painfully interesting problem. Comparatively, their numbers are trifling; locally, they are of great importance.

In the light of the principles here enunciated, and with perfect confidence in their correctness, this work has been prepared; with a view to the better enlightenment of the American public on this question and if possible, to make the duty of Government and people more plain, to set forth the most salient points in the progress of religious imposture, and to draw attention to a Territory rich in natural resources. It is believed that the work contains most of the material facts of interest in regard to Utah and the Mormons; whether of the climate and resources of the former, or the history, theology and peculiar social practices of the latter.

The history of the sect is drawn from many sources: from their own works, from personal records of several who have spent many years among them, from evidence published by the State of Missouri, from official documents of States or the General Government, from previous compilations and other accredited sources.

Of charges against the Mormons, not fully proved, the statements for and against them have been equally presented. The same rules of evidence have been applied in summing up their history, as are held applicable in courts of justice. The author’s opportunities for personal observation will be seen in the course of the work.

The author is well aware of the many imperfections of the work, but does not seek to disarm criticism by a prefaced apology; it is given as a compilation of testimony, on which the reader has the same privilege of passing judgment as the author has exercised on those before him. Whatever may be thought of the style in which they are presented, I trust many of the facts will be found interesting, and if the work should excite an intelligent interest among the American people, in regard to the affairs of Utah, it will have accomplished the dearest wish of the author.
