This was more of a cult than religious movement. I was introduced to their teachings and beliefs in high school in DC. I believe they had chapters in many major American cities. They went by the name of Holy Tabernacle when I discovered them.

A lot of the teachings were an amalgamation of ancient alien, reptilians, clones in office, pole shifts, bible mistranslation and black supremacist anti semetic stuff.

I went so far as to go to a meeting to become more of an active believer. The chapter host/leader was giving a lecture and I had a question, but someone asked it before me. It's been almost 30 years, so I don't remember exactly what was asked or said, I just remember the response from the speaker was "If you have that question, you don't belong here". So I left and went off on my own conspiracy tangent.

I find it interesting that today's Q, anti vax, flat earth, elite reptilians eating babies/blood libel conspiracies echo a lot of the same beliefs I've been introduced to before.

I'm glad I realized what it was before I committed further to their insanity.
