Kinda hard to imagine.....

"Former members of the cult have warned of the dangers of the 'cultish' group behaviour they force the membership to engage in, often involving supporting fellow members of the group, and political causes, through a shared secret behavioural code named 'Blackwhite'. It essentially means that members should be prepared to claim without hesitation that black is white, if required to defend the group from opponents, and when group discipline demands. Rationality or facts to the contrary are considered evil luxuries: AoG says Blackwhite is God's Law."

We can dig dirt on any church.  I'm not an AOG fan but, what good does it do to badmouth them?  Do you think you're doing 'God service' by exposing their bad side?  They have heresy, and so does every other church.  Can you name ONE church that has everything right?  Do you believe you have everything right?

What was said that is untrue? Since Jesus IS truth shouldn't Christians do what we can to seek out and follow truth? Forum sections like this one offer an opportunity for folks to investigate churches before they become involved with one, as well as find links to groups that can help them overcome their bondage to a cult if they are already involved in one.

Do you think you're doing 'God service' by exposing their bad side?

Spoken like someone that is aware they occupy a glass house.

They have heresy, and so does every other church.

So then heresy should simply be ignored, or worse continued on in, along with tolerating psychological abuse of persons as in the OP thread link?

Can you name ONE church that has everything right?  Do you believe you have everything right?

I'm always seeking correction that has a sound basis. When people that have had exposure to the Pentecostal church join us, many exhibit behavior that suggests they are influenced by unclean spirits or worse. Like in this series of posts:
