Questions and Responses

Question: I don’t understand why Bill Johnson and Bethel Church in Redding are not classified as a cult....They are false teachers and wolves in sheep’s clothing. What do you think?

Question: I've come across something that's been called the "Sacred Name Movement," and I'm curious...

Question: Your TBC Daily Update on The Hunger Games (4/4/2012) seems to have missed the point....They couldn’t stand watching most of it, but the moral lessons were certainly there, very much so. Did you miss them?

Question: What is your opinion of al-Qaeda's threats to Pope Benedict XVI for quoting a Byzantine emperor who claimed that the teachings of Muhammad were "evil and inhumane" and who objected to "spreading Islam by the sword"?

Question: Please comment on this new bestseller, The Da Vinci Code. It claims the Bible was collated by Constantine and a vote of the Council of Nicea....

Question: Stanley Hilton, a former chief of staff for Bob Dole, has said he possesses documents showing Bush personally ordered the attack on 9/11....I've seen a video that shows the planes...these are not passenger planes...it was a set-up!
