No now that's not right at all.
Definition: cult •a misplaced or excessive admiration for a particular person or thing:

Admiration for Christ is neither misplaced or excessive on the part of His people. After all, He is Creator of all, and He is the Giver of Life eternal, for all whom "by grace through faith" accept Him as Lord and Savior. And even the early Church was not really small. The Book of Acts recounts the fact that 3,000 souls were added to the Church in one day, but throughout the Acts of the Apostles, The Lord added to His Church daily. And one more thing, The God, Who had to but speak this universe into existence, didn't need Rome or anybody else to give Christianity (His Church) a boost. No power could have stopped It.


I have always found it ironic that men, rather than accepting the Lordship of God, would ascribe their existence instead to something as incredibly unlikely as an exploding space rock. I mean, think of it. Supposedly according to Stephen Hawking's latest revelation, before the big bang there was absolutely nothing. Not one speck of space dust, no light of any kind, no time, not so much as one degree's worth of heat or energy lurking within the vastly infinite icy black vacuum of nothingness. So okay fine, there was nothing and where did the rock come from then?

The irony is that whether one truly believes God, or whether he rejects God for the foolishness of evolutionism, which according to the way I understand it is supposed to be the result of a 'Big Bang' that never happened, he either believes in the Rock of Ages that is the person of God, or the rock of space. But which ever a man chooses, he must still take it on faith. The Christian has the edge here because other than the fact that Creation is real, God has declared in His Word (and recorded history bears out God's Word and the life of Christ BTW) that for the soul who seeketh Him, it is He Who will provide that man with the faith to believe. But for the poor sucker who decides he's investing his personhood on the existence of the space rock, he has to come up with that faith on his own. Which of course is just a disguise for his own rebellion.

2 Samuel 22:47 (KJV)
47 The LORD liveth; and blessed be my rock; and exalted be the God of the rock of my salvation.

2 Samuel 23:2-3 (KJV)
2 The Spirit of the LORD spake by me, and his word was in my tongue.
3 The God of Israel said, the Rock of Israel spake to me, He that ruleth over men must be just, ruling in the fear of God.

1 Corinthians 10:4 (KJV)
4 And did all drink the same spiritual drink: for they drank of that spiritual Rock that followed them: and that Rock was Christ.

For all men who do not believe however, there looms quite the unfortunate alternative to be faced. Judgment.

Hebrews 9:27-28(KJV)
27 And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment:
28 So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation.

There’s multiple definitions for “cult”. Here’s the one I would think is most appropriate for a discussion of this type:

“The term cult usually refers to a social group defined by its religious, spiritual, or philosophical beliefs, or its common interest in a particular personality, object, or goals.”

Here’s another: “A particular system of religious worship, especially with reference to rites and ceremonies.”

Here’s another: “A group having a sacred ideology and a set of rites centering around sacred symbols.”

One more: “An instance of great veneration of a person, ideal, or thing, especially as manifested by a body of admirers.”


All religions start out as small cults and as they spread and grow they lose the cult status and are seen more as a religion. Christianity started this way. So did Islam, Buddhist, Hinduism, Mormons, and others. It’s actually a form of evolution itself, growing from a small group into larger and larger groups. Of course 2000 years ago with smaller populations in the world the number to move a cult from that status to a major religion would be less than today.

Another point you mention is a reference to the theory of the Big Bang origin of the universe. Most scientist lean toward this as an explanation but they all admit it’s only a theory. I think you use the phrase “Big Bang that never happened” and “foolishness of evolution “. I admit the Big Bang is theory but evolution is not theory, it’s fact. There’s 100% proof for evolution in the fossil record and it’s still occurring today. As a matter of fact, 99% of all species that have lived in the long history of life on earth is extinct, the dinosaurs being the most notable. When one considers the vast amount of time that life has been on earth a lot can happen. It’s difficult to comprehend.

So you say you have a better answer for how everything started and it has nothing to do with Big Bangs or evolution because that is foolish thinking.
You have the definite answer to how it happened:
It’s called magic.
That answers everything. We can throw all the science books away.
