The world is home to many religions and belief systems. There are numerous churches that all follow their own doctrine. In some cases the differences between churches are very small but in some cases they are fundamental. Numerous sects have also sprung up and some of them believe that their way is the only way to salvation. Such sects are often targeted by both other churches and by the general public. At present, many critics are doing everything they can to see the HOPCC exposed.
Detractors of the House of Prayer church are adamant in their belief that this church is nothing but a scam to strip members of their assets are to enrich the officials of the church, all done in the name of God and with the promise of life eternal. Critics are vocal and they use the internet and social media to warn the general public against this church.
One of the main criticisms against the House of Prayer is that they recruit members with false promises and outright lies. Detractors say that prospective members are promised that the church will look after them in all ways and that members are focused on helping each other. Members are also told that the teachings of the church are evangelical in nature and that it is based upon the gospels.
Another major point of contention seems to be the methods used by the church to convince members to make donations to the church. Members are told that those with plenty need to help those with little. In reality, critics allege, only favoured members benefit. Some members have given up their homes and even their jobs in order to spend more time in achieving the goals of the church.
Critics are also very vocal about the fact that the church seems to target young people. Some parents allege that their children have been turned against their own families. They say that the House of Prayer convinces young members that they need to shun their families and accept the church as their only family if they wish to attain salvation. Some parents even say that their children exhibits disturbing behavioural traits.
Another area of criticism is the way in which the church runs its seminary. According to the official website of the House of Prayer, students and faculty at the seminary are required to focus all their energies on their own spiritual growth and the furthering of the church aims. To do this, they need to reject all thoughts and acts related to the physical world.
To the frustration of enemies of the House of Prayer efforts to get various authorities to launch investigations into the affairs of the church have been fruitless. Several authorities have declined to investigate, saying that the church is not breaking any laws and that there are no indications that crimes are committed. Individual cases, such as when the parents of under age children complain will be followed up, however.
The House of Prayer Christian Church seems to have adopted a policy of quiet dignity. They do not answer criticisms in public and they do not enter into debate about their policies and doctrine. Their website contains a number of letters from grateful members.
