Another site that shows the techniques abusers use, and compares them to mind control techniques used on prisoners of war, is this from Margaret Singer's 6 Conditions for Thought Reform listed on the web site Refocus.

Another list of warning signs, this one from I am Listening. The first four are especially insightful:

1. “Hears” God for you. God apparently “goes through” him/her to speak to you.

2. Alienates (shuns, ignores) you if you do not adhere to his/her guidance, leadership, or authority.

3. Suggests that rejection of his/her “higher understanding” is done so at your spiritual or even physical peril.

4. Rewards your obedience with inclusion, and punishes your questioning or resistance with withdrawal.
