Question 1

What is a cult?

Accepted Answer

A cult is a religious or social movement led by an authoritarian charismatic leader. They implement various methods of manipulation to control their followers. Through this control, the leaders exploit them. In the Christian sense, the cult leader changes one or more fundamental principles of Biblical Christianity. 
The Farm does all of this.

Question 2

Is it Biblical to call out leaders like this?

Accepted Answer

In short, yes. John Piper states plainly in this article “In order to protect the flock, we should expose them and minimize the spread of the gangrene (as Paul calls it).”

We strongly encourage you to read the article in its entirety.

Question 4

Why do people share anonymously?

Accepted Answer

Fear. The Leader's authoritarian teaching and sometimes their actual statements convince some that judgement will befall them if they speak out against the farm. The person is deemed demonic, a "Delilah" spirit, or a witch. Many individuals who share are still in very raw places and don't want to be subject to their potential threats.
