I grew up in it. What was preached was the new testament. What was practiced was the old. Its the magas, The evangelicals, and the fanatics. They speak the words of the New testament but do not follow the teachings of jesus in their personal life. They pick self serving passages from the old testament to justify their hypocrisies. They are judgmental, hostile toward strangers and the furthest from thing peaceful and tolerant you can be. Exactly the opposite of the new testament. What was that thing RINO. They are CINO. Christian In Name Only.
They are far from the largest group. Just the loudest.

Same, I grew up in a christian cult that got shut down (but reformed under a different name). Glad you got out
Years ago I heard a cult described as a small unpopular reliigion and a religion as a large popular cult. The concept has stuck with me.
