 Eastern Lightning claims that Jesus has returned as a Chinese woman named Yang Xiangbin who lives in hiding in Henan, China. Salvation is achieved through this female Christ. The group’s message is highly apocalyptic.
 Widely reported to be a highly aggressive sect that uses brainwashing sessions to make converts and has published a 67-page instruction manual on how to convert other Christians. Accusations of abuse—including blackmail, poisoning, even torture—are common.
 Critics charge that the group conceals its identity through the use of various aliases or front names.
 Claims 300,000, but more likely 20,000–30,000
