Meskipun beberapa ajaran adalah rahasia yang dijaga dengan hati-hati di dalam sekte tersebut, sarjana seperti Yoshihide Sakurai yang menganalisis dan meringkas keyakinan sekte tersebut mengandalkan kesaksian yang terdokumentasi serta wawancara dengan mantan anggota yang termasuk korban. Dia juga memperoleh catatan dari mantan anggota yang digunakan dalam "studi Alkitab", karena instruksi dalam ''30 pelajaran'' secara konvensional disebut dalam sekte tersebut.{{sfnp|Sakurai|2007c|p=5}}

== Perekrutan ==
Inisiat ke dalam sekte tersebut awalnya didekati dengan diundang ke dalam "lingkaran aktivitas", yaitu klub olahraga atau musik di sekolah; orang-orang yang dilantik baru mengetahui kemudian ketika dibawa ke "studi [[Alkitab]]" bahwa agama merupakan bagian dari kegiatan "lingkaran".{{sfnp|Sakurai|2006|p=145}} Dengan cara ini, Providence membentuk organisasi non-keagamaan untuk tujuan menarik kaum muda tanpa terlebih dahulu mengungkapkan sifat religius kelompok tersebut atau motif sebenarnya mereka,<ref name="asahi-cult-nihon-2000" /><ref name="ucsd-guardian" /><ref>{{cite news

Di kampus-kampus universitas, perekrut sekte tersebut pertama-tama mendekati mahasiswa dengan kedok lingkaran olahraga atau budaya. Setelah membangun hubungan pribadi yang dekat dengan para siswa ini, para anggota mengungkapkan sifat religius kelompok mereka dan mulai mengindoktrinasi mereka. Sasaran favorit adalah anak-anak muda berpikiran serius yang merasa terasing dari keluarga dan sekolahnya serta ingin mengubah hidup mereka.

Providence mulai beroperasi di [[Australia]] selama tahun 1997. Anggota Providence telah dilaporkan secara aktif merekrut anggota baru di [[Universitas Nasional Australia]]. Pada 9 April 2014, jaringan televisi yang didanai pemerintah Australia [[Special Broadcasting Service|Layanan Penyiaran Khusus]] melaporkan aktivitas mereka di Australia, termasuk pernyataan mantan anggota bahwa mereka mencari wanita muda yang menarik. Providence menolak banyak permintaan juru bicara untuk diwawancarai untuk program di Australia dan Korea. Kepala Urusan Eksternal organisasi menolak secara tertulis untuk menjawab pertanyaan spesifik tentang kegiatan kelompok di Australia; namun, dia mengungkapkan bahwa itu memiliki status amal untuk tujuan perpajakan.<ref name=":0" /><ref>{{cite web

Pada Mei 2016, majalah Australia ''[[Crikey]]'' mengungkapkan bahwa seorang pegawai [[Kantor Perpajakan Australia]] (ATO) telah menutupi artikel Wikipedia terkait Providence. Beroperasi dari komputer kerja sejak Agustus 2015, pengacara telah menghapus liputan pers negatif dari artikel tersebut dan menyisipkan pujian yang cemerlang untuk Jung, sambil meragukan hukuman penjara Jung. Perempuan yang awalnya membantah, akhirnya mengaku telah melakukan penyuntingan. Unit Pencegahan Penipuan dan Investigasi Internal ATO menolak mengambil tindakan apa pun.<ref>{{cite web

Providence telah dilaporkan di [[Hong Kong]], yang dikenal sebagai ''Gereja Bulan Terang'' (月明教會) atau ''Setsuri'' (攝理教). Pada bulan Oktober 2006, seorang mantan anggota mengatakan kepada [[Oriental Daily News|''Oriental Daily News'']] bahwa mereka memiliki sekitar 100 anggota inti di Hong Kong, termasuk banyak lulusan kedokteran dan beberapa asisten profesor. Meskipun telah ada di Hong Kong selama bertahun-tahun, perkembangannya yang lambat membuatnya tidak dikenal sampai diekspos media.

=== Jepang ===
Providence mulai aktif di [[Jepang]] sekitar tahun 1985<ref name="tamaki" /> atau 1987.<ref name="lawyers_eye_cult" /> Pada tahun 2006 surat kabar nasional ''[[Asahi Shimbun]]'' melaporkan bahwa Providence "menyebabkan masalah sosial yang serius di Jepang", melabelinya sebagai "[[sekte]]" dan "[[kultus]]". Dilaporkan juga bahwa organisasi tersebut menekan anggotanya untuk hidup bersama, memberikan sumbangan rutin, menikah di dalam organisasi, dan mengikuti bimbingan ketat dari pendirinya.<ref name="asahi-cult-nihon-2000" />{{efn|name="another-problem-cult"}}

''[[The New Zealand Herald]]'' melaporkan bahwa Providence merekrut wanita muda di universitas, pusat perbelanjaan, dan gereja.

[[Gereja Grace Presbiterian Selandia Baru|Gereja Presbiterian Auckland]] menyatakan bahwa anggotanya juga menjadi sasaran. Seorang mahasiswa Universitas Auckland berusia 22 tahun mengatakan bahwa ketika menjadi anggota dia berpartisipasi dalam pemotretan, peragaan busana, dan kursus pelajaran [[Alkitab]] yang memperkenalkan Jung sebagai mesias baru.

Pada bulan Oktober 2005 ''[[Apple Daily (Taiwan)|Apple Daily]]'' melaporkan bahwa banyak klub mahasiswa di [[Universitas Nasional Chung Yang|Universitas Pusat Nasional]] dan kampus lain sedang merekrut untuk Gereja Providence. Klub-klub ini mengadakan berbagai kegiatan termasuk turnamen sepak bola "Eagle Cup" di kota Taipei dan pelatihan model reguler. Surat kabar tersebut mengutip seorang mantan anggota gereja yang dirahasiakan, bahwa "departemen model" gereja sebenarnya adalah saluran perekrutan pasangan seksual untuk Jung. Makalah tersebut memperoleh tiga rekaman audio dialog dari beberapa anggota perempuan, yang mengatakan bahwa Jung telah berhubungan seks dengan sepuluh anggota perempuan atas persetujuan bersama, kebanyakan dari mereka adalah mahasiswa dari departemen modeling.<ref>{{cite news
