TBC,

I would like to take a moment to thank you folks at TBC customer service. I’ve made many orders online and no one comes close to you. With most I can expect to wait three to four weeks for delivery. With you I’ve never waited more than four days! I look forward to my next purchase with you. Well done and thank you. RW (CA)

Dear Dave,

Thank you for your latest TBC article on “Consumer Christianity.” I so appreciate your blatant forthrightness (amen and amen!). You’re a fighter for the only cause that counts—the truth of faith and Christ’s redemption, reconciliation, justification—by biblical standards only. RG (WI)

Dear Dave,

For some time I have questioned why you spend so much time refuting Calvinism when there are so many other problems in the church. But after yesterday, I no longer question this. I have taught a women’s Bible study for over a year. One of the women went to a conference with R.C. Sproul and John MacArthur. She came back with CDs and played them for the group. Overnight, I felt a change in their attitude about how to study the Bible (e.g., we don’t need to have the Old Testament to understand the New) and an attitude about the Jews that seriously disturbed me—not a hatred for Israel, but that Israel is not really important….I guess I had to experience the effects of Calvinism personally before I could see the devastating effects of this doctrine.

Dear TBC,

It is good to have sound knowledge of the cults. It is perilous not to be aware of the tricks of Satan. Even better is the digging deep into the depths of the Scriptures that we may behave wisely as we learn to trust and obey. JS (WI)

Dear friends,

We have been working with the youth in our church for about six months. We were just told that we can no longer be the youth leaders because we will not teach The Purpose Driven Life in our Sunday class and our Wednesday night class. Your words of truth have helped support us in our own feelings about this “strategy for building the church,” as our pastor states. JG (MT)

Dear Dave,

I am 92, an intercessor, [without much] income. I can’t give, but I love to read your Berean Call. Also, I love to defend you—whenever anyone judges you. MB (CO)

TBC,

Please refrain from sending any material from your ministry. You have gone beyond “brother discussion” on Calvinism. I prefer the reformed faith over yours. JG (NH)

Dear Dave,

Thank you so much for all your work. I’m 77 years old, alone, handicapped, and almost poor—but I’m relatively contented and happy. I’m on my way home. I was born and raised Catholic and even spent six years in a Jesuit seminary, but now through God’s love I am a biblical Christian. You sent me A Woman Rides the Beast. I read it and read it and I rejoice! JJ (NJ)

Dear Dave,

I have just received your latest newsletter. I see people are after your scalp. Still, never mind—think of your reward in heaven. Be faithful to God’s Word…you are right to raise the alarm. But let’s look up and give our best for Christ. It’s our only hope. CV (Australia)

Dear TBC,

Your monthly magazine is an inspiration to my roommate and me. The “seeker-sensitive,” purpose-driven movement has invaded this and other prisons. You’d think with the razor wire, twenty-foot-high fences, and guard towers, we (of all people) would be safe from indoctrination of such delusions.....In the third chapter [of A Purpose-Driven Life], Rick Warren quotes Dr. Bernie Siegel. My roommate asked the instructor why Rick Warren would quote a man who believes we are all “the Christ.” Then Rick uses Isaiah and Job as examples of lives “without a purpose” and “being without God”....Our dorm counselor told the class after my roomate had spoken, “Now that the devil has had his five minutes....”  DC (prisoner, GA)      

TBC:

 You diligently test the latest wind of doctrine with the pure Word of God. Your vigilance is refreshing the saints who desire the pure milk of the Word. Glory be to His name. “And he showed me a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding out of the throne of God and of the Lamb”– Rev:22:1And he shewed me a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding out of the throne of God and of the Lamb.
