We just had a group of three women come to our door to tell us about the "heavenly mother", from whom the living water flows (they used Rev 22:17, Gal 4:25-26 to prove this). As most cult members are, they were very difficult to pin down in one verse to see what it really says. We got onto the subject of the Trinity, and totally shut down when I said that Jesus was not the Holy Spirit, but both of them are God.
I got the gospel in there a bit, looking at Ephesians 5 and the bride as the church that Jesus died for and washed with His blood, but they acted like they knew it and took it in their stride.
We said they were welcome to come again, but I don't think we'll be seeing them. The way they rocketed out the door when we got onto orthodox Trinitarianism was amazing!
Does anybody have any information on this cult? I have checked their website couldn't find anything about this specific doctrine. It is difficult when you are totally unprepared and haven't even heard of them before!!!
It was funny afterwards, as my wife and I read their points of doctrine. They are avidly anti-alcohol, and we sat around the table with a half empty bottle of red wine in the middle!
We are such pagans!
