Manifestations of Fundamentalism - BJU and Gothard Rated Low, HAC Rated Lowest

Sorry, let me clarify. No, I don't feel all IFBs are cults but I do believe a lot of the IFBs from the 70s and 80s when I was growing up were "man focused" and built around a sense of control people. I would consider myself very conservative from a Biblical perspective, but I'm glad there are a lot of IFBs who have worked through the unbiblical legalism that permeated past churches.

That makes sense. Welcome aboard and please don’t hesitate to contribute to the fray with your perspective.
 
I went out and read this whole article. It is very good. I don't know this guy, but he sounds pretty good, a grad of Detroit Baptist Seminary, a Fundamentalist school in Detroit.
