Abstract
This paper deals with one such cult. Its founder is a man named Victor Paul Wierwille. The name of the false spiritual movement connected with this man is The Way International. This is a name that I am sure the Church will be hearing more of in the future. It can be classified among the new cults which have sprung up in America during the last few decades.
This paper will, in only a brief way, give the reader a look at this group. The hope is that the paper will give the reader a look at the insides of this group: its history, theology and the threat and challenge that it presents to the Church today.
