UMG,
I think "cult" is far more descriptive.
The Remnant Fellowship Church's Web site urges spanking to make children obedient

Thanks for the SpiritWatch link. Sure enough the Remant is a cult. Here's a couple of quotes from the link.
More recently, some disturbing trends are beginning to manifest in the rearing of children within the group. The same standards of total obedience to authorities are applied to the youngest of children as well as adults. Children may be disciplined for the slightest of infractions, and are expected to demonstrate complete control over their emotions and their diets. Children are expected to sit through hours long worship services without any fidgeting or demonstrating inattentiveness. Needless to say, this could have long-term deleterious effects on a child's well being. Over the past year, Remnant Fellowship Nashville has begun hosting children's camps to which the parents of all Remnant Fellowship branches are encouraged to send their children. The goal of this camp is, among other things, to raise the level of discipline to which the children are accustomed and shape their behavior to be more in line with group norms.
TextExuse me for saying this but the woman who is the leader of this church is shown in a picture on the spiritWatch page looks like a wicked person.
