Although many books and articles have been written about the phenomenon of cults from either a psychological or sociological point of view, in this first of a 15-part series, Dr. Walter Martin analyzes the anatomy of a cult from a theological and biblical perspective. Dr. Martin's insights and research coupled with on-location interviews with cult leaders and ex-cult members makes this a uniquely hard hitting documentary. You'll get a first hand look at cults and the occult and the effect they are having on the world today. Recent surveys indicate that there is scarcely a family anywhere that hasn't been affected by the tragedy of a cult. Because of this unique problem special interviews are featured with noted experts in this field of specialization-interviews that give practical advice on what to do if a family member or friend gets involved in a cultic or occultic group.
Near Chicago, Illinois, the Baha'is, for example, have built an impressive lacey-white, concrete temple that serves as their U.S. headquarters. We interviewed a spokesman for the Bahai faith and recorded a portion of one of their church services. Dr. Martin skillfully examines what a cult is what a threat cults pose to Christianity.
In this introductory presentation we will also take a look at the history at cults in America with a visit to one of the last remaining Shaker communities located near Canterbury, New Hampshire. All of this and more in the Introduction to the Cults with your host, Dr. Walter Martin.
