Asher,

Welcome, and wow! Great post, telling it exactly like it is!

Also, very hard to read, precisely because of how true it is. It's so hard to come to terms with the fact that this is an irrevocable part of my life, and I had no idea for most of the time I was there.

This statement of yours struck me: "Very important to note that the cult's main focus is to bring people into the "Lord's Recovery", not to Christ."

It's true, even if you just take a step back and realize they call themselves "The Recovery".....that alone screams "cult"!

And also: "They also have a very strong agenda to bring people out of their Christian groups (what they call "leaving behind religion")."

Also so strikingly true. They are literally peeling believers AWAY from the body of Christ into their own aberrant group which self-admittedly wants nothing to do with the rest of the body of Christ!! The weight of it all just crushes me. You really nailed it.

I had one question about one thing you said regarding insulting the deity of Jesus. To my knowledge they fully profess Jesus is God. Do you mean they insult His deity in the very true and shameful sense that they put Lee over Jesus? Just wondering what you had in mind when you wrote that.

You're very well spoken. Great to have many things distilled down to the real issues at hand. We welcome any other contributions you want to make!
