Fool's Gold?: Discerning Truth in an Age of ErrorJohn MacArthur, Nathan Busenitz, Scott Lang, Phil Johnson ÒEureka!Ó In an age of open-mindedness, many believers accept too much with too little discernment, resulting in great confusion and compromise. But GodÕs Word makes it clear that not everything that glitters is gold. False teaching is at every turn, and the temptation to embrace it is great. As GodÕs people we are called to sift through the overwhelming number of traditions and trends and use the truth of Scripture to determine which are the true treasuresÑand which are ÒfoolÕs gold.Ó General editor John MacArthur and the contributors of this uncompromising book define the principles of biblical discernment and use them to address several contemporary Christian issues. They provide straightforward, biblical critiques of some popular but unfortunate Christian trends, such as watered-down preaching and doctrinally questionable best-selling books. Dr. MacArthur ends with a practical plan for cultivating discernment in the Christian life. It is the duty of every ChristianÑnot just pastors and eldersÑto follow the biblical command to cling to what is good and to reject what is not. This book will equip you with a foundation for biblical discernment that will enable you to make careful distinctions in your thinking about truth. |
