I would not say that the UPC as an organization is a cult although it does display some cultish characteristics. Some believe that the UPC as an organization is a cult.
Some local UPC churches are, in my opinion, cults, but there are other local churches (UPC or other OP types and many non OP) that are cults. This is my opinion.
