Questions and Responses

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: I asked a pastor [a question] about the end times and the nation of Israel. Here is the response I received: "As you probably know, those with a strongly dispensational view...

Question: I am being bombarded by material from friends insisting that as New Testament Christians we should still be...

Question: I have heard of a number of churches that are giving copies of Rocky Fleming's The Prayer Cottage...

Question: A dear friend of mine, on fire for Jesus, is following John Crowder. I’m concerned about the wording of his ministry. His teachings are called “mystical school.” I just wonder if you know about him and what you think.

Question: In Wide Is the Gate…T. A. McMahon states: “in trying to solve the problems, fix the world, many Christians don’t realize that they’re actually going to be helping the Antichrist develop his kingdom.” My friends were disturbed by this statement.

Question: In November, you expressed displeasure with D. James Kennedy, R.C. Sproul, and others, who teach that Israel "has no special title to land in the Middle East, having been replaced by the church."...

Question: Do you know of the book, Blood Brothers, by Elias Chacour? The author is a Palestinian "Christian" [and] states, "In 1948 after a United Nations resolution, the country of Palestine became the sovereign state of Israel."

Question: We disagree with your premise on what God has in store for fleshly Israel, the nation. Neither the Old Testament nor the New Testament promises wholesale salvation for the Jews in the end times.

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.
