Questions and Responses

Question: Have you ever heard the phrase "the many-breasted god"?

Question: Are you familiar with Randy Frazee [co-editor Max Lucado] and his book called The Story? Our church is promoting it for small group study and I have a few concerns. Would appreciate any information you may have.

Question: In your article [May 2005] on the pope's passing you said, "like the pope, the Church he led firmly...

Question: Your "faultless" doctrines come ultimately from Jewish thinking.... Your eschatological errors didn't significantly exist in Christendom until Edward Irving, John Darby, the Plymouth Brethren, et al., came along with Jewish ideas.

Question: I’ve spent countless hours talking to those who support biblical movies, and no matter what concerns I raise...the final word on their part is, “I hear what you’re saying, but I still feel that God can use such movies to win people to Jesus...”

Question: Some Seventh day Adventist friends have what they call “The Clear Word Bible.” Something doesn’t sound quite right, and it looks like verses have been changed to support their teachings.
