"Cult", "sect", "mainstream religion" -- absolutely arbitrary distinctions. (Me, I'm a member of the How-the-Hell-Would-You-Know cult.)
"There is no such thing as knowledge, just belief."
Even the demons believe in Jesus and the rest, the only difference is one repents and follows Jesus, the other doesn't.I grow tired of one "Christian" Sect warring against another. I say if you believe in Jesus and that he was the son of God that died and rose again, that is good enough for me
