A Cult vs. A Church

Now I was thinking about this today. What is the difference between a cult and a church. Some people think they are actually in a church when it actually is a bible based cult.

So my question is how can you tell the difference between a bible based cult and a church?

Not trying to be funny but I personally know a church that I believe is a cult or at least has some properties of being one. I think this is actually is a good topic to discuss to educate people.

If there is a dictatorship rule (my way or hell) is that a cult or a church? 1 Corinthians 11:1?

Thoughts?
