Lord, Am I in a Cult?

Can you imagine being deceived and manipulated by someone that supposed to have your best interest in mind? Can you imagine putting so much trust and faith in a person to the point he/she has been made an idol? Can you imagine being in a place where you thought you were serving God, but when the blinders come off in reality man was being served? Can you imagine belonging to a church that the leader has turned into a cult? I can. How could I be sitting under a false prophet in sheep's clothing (Matthew 7:15 KJV)? Why didn't I see the fruit of this leader (Matthew 7:16 KJV)? So many broken marriages, broken families, and adultery was the reputation of this ministry. When my eyes were opened to the truth, I knew it was time to get out. That's when it seemed my whole world was turned upside down. It felt as though I was fighting for my life. I began to get ostracized, criticized, talked about, gaslighted, mentally abused, emotionally abused, and this leader had subtle divided my home. I had to hold on to God for dear life. O Lord, could I overcome this brokenness? O Lord, could I overcome this deceitfulness?
