ISOLATION- I see a big insecurity from this cult to not allow outside influences. I'll leave it at that
Coming back to this topic because this is such an important point. Abusers love to isolate their targets. This holds true regardless of the type of abuse: spiritual, domestic, workplace, or even government overreach. They can only exert full control over you if they isolate you from other sources of support (friends, spouse, family, and whoever else makes up your most important social circle) or from other sources of information.
If you're being encouraged to isolate from people who love you, people with an opposing viewpoint, or even from innocent activities you've always enjoyed, then rest assured, this isn't about helping you become more godly or protecting you in some way. It's about controlling you.
