I remember quite expressly when The Way came into the USA and it was branded a cult at the time. I think one of the reasons orthodox Christians rebuked this group is that, while it says Jesus is the Son of God, it also says He isn't God Himself. This, of course has direct effect upon salvation beliefs. There are other issues that counter the general beliefs of orthodox Christians. I don't wish to get into a debate about cults. If you're looking for a standard, basic Christian fellowship, this is not where you want to be.
((((hugs)))) You are smart for asking. I wonder if it was the Spirit within you giving you the inclination to ask.
