Cultish churches

Cultish churches can be so geared that one is always striving to achieve

yet never (so purposely arranged by the leadership) arrives. 

They thus “shut out” even the best. 

Left wing (or Broadway) “churches” are so structured

that all people “arrive” soon and “Oh, how great you are.” 

This is also leadership arranged – no one is “shut out.”

The best churches are neither rightist (extreme)

nor leftist (extreme) but have found a balance. 

In the best ones saints are occasionally blessed

and sinners are not “blessed.” 

A balanced, Godly atmosphere should

produce saints who shout God’s praises and

sinners who moan under the conviction for their sins.
