"When God looks at you right now, He is seeing something that He gives you permission to see also. When you start to see that, and your thinking starts to enlarge, and your heart starts to enlarge so that you can begin to take that on board as a confession, your faith actually rises to His confession. Not just to your confession of God, but also to your confession of yourself."

MIND CONTROL BY CHURCH LEADERS- Apostle John Eckhardt

Prophets Expose Mind Control ‪#‎prophets‬

MIND CONTROL:
SIX TELL-TALE SIGNS OF ABUSIVE CHURCH LEADERS by Rhett Stuart

1. Idolatry - Create excessive, and sometimes blind, admiration and devotion to a person or group, and their beliefs.

2. There is a well developed, and often unstated system of rules and codes for behavior. Teaching God will approve of the members who follow the leader and are loyal to him is of utmost importance. God is not acting out of grace or mercy. God is a strict judge of justice who is working directly with and through the leaders who alone know what God really wants. The Mind Controller becomes their parent, and his followers are treated like children. They do not need to know everything, but just what the leaders think they need to know.

3. Almost total dependence on a leader, leaders, and the group, combined with cutting off most of the outside world; especially close friends and relatives.

4. Systematically using subtle techniques for changing the way people think, what they think, and keep existing member’s thoughts and hearts loyal to the Mind Controller and his cause. The goal is to have the Mind Controller as the parent, and the adult subjects functioning as his children.

5. Teaching that the group has all the answers; it has everything good in life and there is nothing else.

6. Creating an environment of fear in leaving. Any deserters are punished by shunning, and are vilified and marginalized by ridicule before and/or after they leave. This creates a profoundly deep subconscious fear in the existing members to never leave, so this won’t happen to them. Anything outside of the group is inferior and of Satan. It is evil. There is no rule or doctrine more pure, or better, than the group’s. Outside is failure and disaster.
