There is at least one cult version.

The International Church of Christ (ICOC) http://www.icoc.org/

the Christian Church of Christ is non denominational

Sorry. Don't believe everything you read on the Internet. I've been a member of the ICOC and in several ministry locations for over 20 years. There are horror stories and bad attitudes in any denominational church or church that calls itself non-denominational, and the Internet and those who have been “burned” are quick to call a ministry a cult.

In my experience, I have never been controlled or brain washed, although, there have been times that my mind needs a good washing. Over the years, the ICOC has grown and changed as needed, and has seen some bad times, but also some very good times.

The amount of lives that have been changed for the better, through the ICOC or through its benevolent arm, HOPE Worldwide, across the country and around the world has far outweighed the criticism that some give.

So...in my opinion and experience...not a cult. Although, first century Christians were also called a cult, so maybe it's not so bad.
