Mexican bishop warns Catholics against deceptive cults

Bishop Jose Guadalupe Martin Rabago of Leon, Mexico, is warning Catholics against the tactics of certain cult groups that claim to be able to solve every employment, economic and emotional problem.

Bishop Martin Rabago said Catholics should not allow themselves to fall prey to such deceit, and he pointed to the need to “orient the faithful, so that they don’t become victims of deceit and undue proselytism.”

He also said the government is responsible for reviewing the teachings of religious groups in order to determine if they contribute positive values to society.

Bishop Martin Rabago explained the groups often pass out flyers offering to resolve any legal, health or economic problem for those who embrace their promises.
