These are the fifteen foundational truths of the Friends, Workers & Meetings that constitute a cult.

Point 1: It is utterly false and Biblically unfounded to say, you have to be in their way to be saved.

Point 2: It is utterly false and Biblically unfounded to say, that you cannot fellowship in churchy looking buildings.

Point 3: The Matthew 10 foundation is a transgression and is completely misunderstood and totally misrepresented.

Point 4: The Friends and Workers come from a shamed based background because as a result of “their way” the family life is dysfunctional.

Point 5: Jesus helped and mixed with the murderers, prostitutes and other down and outs in the local communities. The Friends & Workers do not. They do not demonstrate love to people outside their group. They do not demonstrate love to people in their group for they know no love.

Point 6: These people take great offence when challenged about their belief system or way of life because by default they live in a world of self-preservation and cannot bear to look in to themselves for they are all alone.

Point 7: When we fellowship and get together over Bible discussions, unless it is edifying us how to live practically and relevantly it is of no value and the Friends and Workers are in full error of this.

Point 8: The Friends and Workers harbour unforgiveness in their hearts and have great difficulty in identifying this and bringing it before the Cross.

Point 9: The Friends and Workers think they are better than everyone else because they believe that they are in the one and only way as they look down on everyone else from their pedestal.

Point 10: Sexual perversion, low performance, immorality and associated iniquities of the heart are common place and in extreme levels within the Friends and Workers.

Point 11: The Friends and Workers are easy victims of blackmail because this religion is all about what it looks like.

Point 12: Very sadly when you get to the core of things the Friends and Workers are not interested in the actual revelation of the written Word. They don’t want to go there because they fear it will undermine or nullify their own beliefs.

Point 13: The Friends and Workers are the world’s greatest mockers! They look down on every one else and as they know nothing about the real world this fuels their superiority. If it does not fit their life they scorn often causing much hurt too many people.

Point 14: These are a people that lack integrity and honesty.

Point 15: This is by far the gravest and most serious - idolatry. You either serve God or the father of lies – it is as simple as that!

The first reason that constitutes all the Friends, Workers & Meetings and many X’s being of dysfunctional families is:

(A) "Membership of this group is not through an inward receiving of a relationship with Christ by grace, but it's like any other cult or religion: an outward conformity to their lifestyle”.

The second reason that constitutes all the Friends, Workers & Meetings and many X’s being of dysfunctional families is:

(b) Self-Esteem and Self-Expression is not present within the individual’s personality because it has been denied them, and not allowed to develop.

The third reason that constitutes all the Friends, Workers & Meetings and many X’s being of dysfunctional families is:

(c) The Friends & Workers are hypocrites because they are not allowed to be free and honest but can only be themselves by being sneaky and dishonest.

The fourth reason that constitutes all the Friends, Workers & Meetings and many X’s being of dysfunctional families is:

(d) The Friends & Workers in varying degrees are liars because they are not allowed to be free and honest.

The fifth reason that constitutes all the Friends, Workers & Meetings and many X’s being of dysfunctional families is:

(e) These people take great offence when challenged about their belief system or way of life because by default they live in a world of self-preservation and cannot bear to look in to themselves for they are all alone.

The sixth reason that constitutes all the Friends, Workers & Meetings and many X’s being of dysfunctional families is:

(f) In their own minds they go round and round in a loop, having great difficulty in processing other truths and reasoning’s. They are satisfied when you agree with them.

A functional family considers problems to be a normal part of life. Functional families work to solve problems, cope, deal with and dispose of the emotions that arise. So they are not threatened by problems but rather see them as challenges to work through.

Dysfunctional families are not like that, problems are ignored, they are not dealt with because a dysfunctional family is trying to maintain their image, especially shame based dysfunctional families, image maintenance is critical.

You have to keep up the illusion that the family is perfect. Problems are swept into a pile and shoved into a corner that will eventually turn into a volcano.

You are not allowed to let anyone know what is going on in you’re heart. You are not allowed to let anyone know what’s going on in your life. You are not allowed to let anyone know what’s going on in the home.

So all energy is not spent on solving problems but on hiding reality from others.

In a functional family feelings are acknowledged, valued, explored and resolved. In a dysfunctional family you can’t go there.

Agapao and Agape are the words that are used to describe Gods unconditional love. No strings attached. Did you here that? No strings attached!! Wow…how is that for a benchmark? This is the love that we must show towards our Husbands, Wives and children, our neighbours and enemies!!! Love by choice and an act of the will!

Agapao is a word that exclusively belongs to the Christian community. Agapao is a love virtually unknown to writers outside the New Testament.

Love is an action, not an emotion, although love effects our emotions, causes emotions and creates emotions. It’s not an inclination but a demonstration. It’s not so much what you feel but rather what you do!

Love is a choice not a feeling. When you love in spite of how you feel, when you love when you don’t want to, well that’s when you are operating in love by choice.

And there’s a saying: It’s easier to act your way into a feeling than feel your way into an action.
