Coming Out Of A DRG

"But the anointing which ye have received of him abideth in you: and ye need not that
man should teach you but as the same anointing teacheth you of all things, and is truth,
and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in him." 1 John 2:27

Evangel Temple - Evangel Church has all the markings of a cult, Bishop Meares and
his son Bishop Don Meares are egotistical manipulative liars, and so are many of
their Ministers.   I pray continuously that God would open the eyes of the each
member and help them to get out.

One mark of a DRG is the power it holds over members whose better judgement tells
them they need to get out.   One former member of a DRG says,  "It took me months
to get up enough courage to say, I'm leaving.  This is wrong.  It's going against my
conscience.   I've got to get out of here--regardless of the consequences.'   And I had
to do some serious praying because I was afraid.   I was afraid of losing everything.
There's no other place to go.   They quote john 6:68 (where Jesus asked His disciples
if they were going to leave Him), and Peter said, "There,s no one else to go to but
to You, because You have the words of life.' But when they say that, they're saying
that we can't leave the group.   There 's no place else to go.   There's no life outside
the organization".

But according to DRG expert Ron Enroth,  "The good news is that people can leave
these groups successfully.   There is life outside of the cult.  And the best news is
that it is possible for them to have a genuine relationship with God through Jesus
Christ.   I have seen so many lives transformed by the good news of the gospel.
For many of these people, the good news of the cult has been bad news.   They
need to experience the grace and forgiveness of God.   They need to experience
freedom, not bondage.  I have seen people leave groups and in a period of days,
overnight sometimes, have a life change that is very dramatic, very evident, and
very exciting.

There is hope.  But first the DRG member must acknowledge the sin of giving to
a man, woman, or organization the honor that belongs to God alone.   How
thankful we can be that for such sins Christ died!  How thankful we can be that
Christ then rose from the dead to give new life to all who will trust Him--the
only One who deserves to be called Teacher--to lead us to the only One who
deserves to be called Father (Matthew 23:8-10).

This is all true but it goes further in this case we are dealing with the
unanointed cherub that covereth.  Ezekiel  31
