What's coming up? Let's plunge into the Deeper Waters and find out.
So you're sitting at home minding your own business when you hear the doorbell ring. You open the door and there are a couple of people carrying Bibles and some magazines. Maybe it's not them, but it's a couple of well-dressed young men with black name tags on.
You're walking down the street and you see a group off to the side offering free religious literature. You want to be open. Right? I mean, isn't an idea worth looking into? What harm could it do?
There are numerous ways that groups like this come into our lives. They look like Christians, but they're not. They deny many truths that are essential to Christianity. Another sad reality is that they know how to use their Bibles better than most Christians. Many Christians have no idea how dangerous these groups are and how dangerous their teachings are and just see them as another denomination. We might be able to work with some of them on social and political issues, but not at all on the Gospel.
So who are they and how do you reach them? This Saturday I'm going to be discussing an overview of many cults and how to best reach them. We're going to be talking about some of our favorites like Mormonism and Jehovah's Witnesses, but also ones that might not be as well known like the International Church of Christ or the Twelve Tribes. There are new cults showing up constantly and we must all remain on the watch.
I'm also bringing someone on who has dedicated his ministry to understanding cults. He has recently released a book on cults. It is a good overview looking at many of the cults that are out there and will give you a good introduction to them. The book is Sharing Jesus with the Cults and the author is Jason Oakes.
So who is he?
