But I don't call him a cult leader, have I had situations where his campaign against me had hurt me, yes, but it hadn't kill me.

Let me just say this, Brother Reckart doesn't have the influence of the cult leaders of the article you offered me, and I have seen that around Brother Reckart people come and people go. He isn't in a compound, or a commune up in Tampa filled with hundreds of devotees. So for what it's worth, I'll say it again, after he passes on, you won't have people across the world listening to his tapes, or naming a church Reckart's Tabernacle in Tampa Florida.

Maybe I am really missing something in this discussion, and that Brother Reckart struck gold with the Facebook community so now has followers around the globe?

Time proves all things.

Bro Benincasa the guy is a loon. He may be a good guy. Did you listen to any of those CDs I sent you? I ministered along side that brother for 2 years. And mostly he was a good guy, but he'd get in the pulpit and say crazy things and exert unusual influence over some people in the congregation. Very Reckhart like, really very Jim Jones like. I had to get out of that church. The only reason Reckhart or the guy I'm referencing aren't full fledged cult leaders is they can't get enough converts to their crazy beliefs for any one to pay attention to them. The seed is there for serious religious craziness.
