Years ago, LONG before there was an FCF I recall running into Trinitarians who were not all that into classifying people as a cult for their theological view of the godhead and prefered to refer to us as heterodox than heretics...one guy told me what I believed in was sort of an economic Trinity.

Now as you were pointing out, many OPs would probably be upset at being called that lol.

In fact Modalism was termed a "Trinitarian heresy"....because they still believed in Father, Son and Holy Ghost in unity, but denied the three were distinct persons

Yes, there was that whole thing about the economic trinity and the immanent trinity.

What I look at when determining whether a group is a cult or not is mainly what it believes about Jesus. If it denies the divinty of Christ; if it denies the virgin birth, the sinless life, the miracles, the death, the resurrection, or the literal (and yet future) return of Jesus to take His Church home and, later, to reign on Earth for a thousand years, I consider that group a cult.
