Maybe cult-like. However, as I have discussed many times. Religion is not salvation. That would include some Christian sects. Being a child of God is living with and for God. It is not about man-made traditions. Eat me on Friday, or don’t. Absstinence from all alcohol, no wearing red, and no walking about 2/3 of a mile or 1 kilometer, on the Sabbath. Jewish leaders limited people to journeying on the Sabbath, deeming journeying any further to be “work." You can do all these thing is you so choose, but I will do nothing for your status of salvation.
God hungers for a relationship with you. A relationship of you being His child and Him being your Father. He was there when you were born. He created you in the womb. He was there for your first steps. First words. He is there when you lie down and when you wake up. As long as you are “under His roof” in this relationship, He will meet your every need.
Peter
