About this book

This book examines different authority teachings and practices common in the so-called New Apostolic Reformation Movement and in many independent Evangelical churches. Topics often heard within that movement deal with issues such as: church government and order, ruling over, honor/culture of honor, authority and submission, loyalty, spiritual fathering and sonship, spiritual covering/apostolic covering" and others. This book critiques these themes and finds them to be biblically without merit as typically presented and toxic in their harmful effects in those who have had the misfortune to be exposed to them. Many who may ask an honest question of leadership are often accused of being disloyal, being "wounded," having a problem with submission to authority, or having a "Jezebel spirit," the so-called "set-man," and other controlling canards. This book will equip readers with the ability to resist the forceful presentation of the distorted doctrines. It will help those who have experienced these things recover from the damage that they have endured, and it will inoculate others who have not been exposed to the abusive doctrines. This book provides antidotes and solutions for healthy relationships in a new covenant community of grace that does not capitulate to the anarchic spirit of our times under the guise of spiritual liberty.

Penguin Book of Cults
<b>A chilling documentary history of the most notorious cults of the past two thousand years, from the Celtic druids whose ritual sacrifices inspired the folk horror film <i>The Wicker Man </i>all the way up to the Peoples Temple and Heaven's Gate <p/>A Penguin Classic</b> <p/>The word "cult" conjures images of people in thrall to a charismatic leader who extracts obedience through lies and threats, and of apocalyptic prophecies, ritual sacrifices, sexual perversion, and mass suicide. <i>The Penguin Book of Cults </i>charts the history of our fear of the religious other: the arrest and public execution of thousands of members of an ancient Roman cult devoted to Bacchus, the god of wine; the burning alive of victims in giant wicker effigies as an offering to Celtic gods; the nocturnal orgies, murder of children, and demon worship of medieval heretics; a church of "human vampires" in nineteenth-century Kansas City; moral panics over the hypnotic powers of yoga; and mass casualty events like the sarin nerve gas attack on the Tokyo subway system by the doomsday cult Aum Shinrikyo. <p/>Bringing to light little-known sources such as a "death tape" of Jonestown's final hour, when Jim Jones led more than 900 of his followers to drink poison, and a minute-by-minute log of the FBI's final assault on the Branch Davidian headquarters, and including accounts of drinking the blood of sacrificed cats, theories that we are living inside a hollow earth, and reports that space brothers from Venus are coming to redeem us from the threat of nuclear war, this volume opens a fascinating window into cults and why some of them have ended in spectacular violence. <p/>Penguin Classics is the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world, representing a global bookshelf of the best works throughout history and across genres and disciplines. Readers trust the series to provide authoritative texts enhanced by introductions and notes by distinguished scholars and contemporary authors, as well as up-to-date translations by award-winning translators.
