 | False facts Sep 20, 2006 |
| This is the most ridiculous book I have ever read.It brands everything as false if it does not agree with the bible. Why bother writing a book. Just say that everything is false,if it is not in the bible.Besides this book is full of erroneous facts that any gullible person reading this book would take it as true.This book should have been titled 'FALSE FACTS about other religions'. There are too many arrors to list here. It is not even worth the paper it is printed on. | | |  | Fast Facts on False Teaching Mar 23, 2006 |
| This book was very informative. It was easy to understand and very well written. I learned so much from it and it wasn't dull or boring. I couldn't put it down. I loved how it packed so much information in each chapter. Thank you Ron Carlson for writing this book. It's much needed! | | |  | Needs to be updated Mar 20, 2006 |
As a college professor and a teacher of cults I have used this book on a number of occassions. I used it because it is extremely basic and very readable. Having used it lately I think I will use something different next time in my teaching. Here are the reasons:
1. The section on Roman Catholicism is very good and shows its extreme cult-"ness" while giving no real meat in the prosperity theology section. They do point out its great problems but I feel that whichever gentleman wrote that section did not know about the Word-Faith movement enough to elaborate.
2. It needs to be updated. Sections on Satanism are talking about music groups that used to be and TV shows that are no more.
I could go on a little more but I think you get the point. Still a good basic book. | | |  | Very Good Just to see the Basics. Nov 6, 2005 |
I read some of the other reviews of this book and thought, that one was based on one Chapter, and one was dissing it because ONE thing he said in the book was "untrue". Which doesn't make any sense.
This book is for the most part very educational. He may sometimes over exagerate on things, but who doesn't. Most have for christians every where. | | |  | Why am I giving this two stars? For several reasons. May 26, 2005 |
First and foremost, while there is "information" found within this book, the information is not in depth and insightful. If you want in depth information on Christian apologetics in comparison to other faiths, especially Eastern, then I would suggest that you go to Ravi Zacharias' Jesus Among Other Gods. Zacharias also has some wonderful books on Christian meeting the Atheists worldview. If you wish to have more information on apologetics in comparison to evolution, go to Dismantling Evolution by Ralph Muncaster. That book is a great source of fact by fact reasons why evolution is wrong and the science of creationism has a firm foundation.
Now unto this book itself. I will examine this book specifically on one of its chapters, that is the one about Satanism and Occultism. The reason I am giving the two stars is due to some of the misinformation and misdirection this book gives toward Satanism and Occultism. That is, it follows the age old hype that such things as Smurfs and Dungeons & Dragons causes one to go into worshipping the devil. As someone who is now out of the occult by the blessings of the Lord Jesus Christ, I can tell you quite honestly...neither caused me to be involved in the occult. What causes one to be involved in the occult ... from Wicca to whatnot? Well for one thing, the age old problem of churches having the problem of being welcoming to new people, to people who are questioning, to people who need friends and not "hammer you with the Love of Jesus" (said in the same voice as Oral Roberts). Seeing as I grew up churches that were more interested in being a social club than a ministry caused me to go toward occultism. Seeing the same people who pretended to being all Christian and open, but if you weren't up to the standards of their clicks, you were outcasted (from teens to adults). That also pushed me into Wicca due to the fact that the people involved in Wicca, those I maintained a connection to during that time period of my life, were much more friendly. Yes they were wrong, yes ultimately they are worshiping the devil, but when they are open and churches arent, well you will see where the young people and 20 something to 30 something adults go...and it isn't due to watching Smurfs as a child or playing Dungeons & Dragons as a teen or adult.
This could also be said toward other false religions. People are pushed away by how many churches have a "guilty until proven innocent" attitude toward salvation. Not to mention the mega-churches that are growing across the country who have self help religious attitudes and "join the club" points of view ... both of which alienates honest searchers. Many churches have a hard time when they are built around the air of already knowing who is who, and when strangers come, well, they are given the eyes of suspicion or they are being asked too many "holier than thou 20 questions". Churches need to be open, toward all, and yes they can do this while maintaining a strict truth to the Bible. As a Christian, now, I have tried to not do any of the actions that caused me myself to push away from the Church and ultimately from Christ at that time in my life.
I remain a firm believer in the literal truth of the Bible, when dealing with those who are of other religions, but you must go beyond the information and slim picking of info that is seen in this book. What I said about the chapter on Occult can be said in turn toward the other chapters. It is of course good to know what that religion believes so that you can lead them from what their religion says to the ultimate truth of the Bible, but you can't have it going as a "good guys vs. bad guys" or a "I'm saved and youre going to hell unless you do as I say" kind of attitudes. You must love others, you must be ready to minister, but...I would take people like Paul in Athens witnessing or a Stephen to the Jews witnessing style of attitude...love, firm Biblical knowledge, and a friendly ear to hear why the person is involved in what he or she is involved in. That is how you can start to win souls, walk in their shoes, and show the truth of God out of love. | | | Write your own review about Fast Facts On False Teachings
