Open-Mindedness...And Other Lies Pat M Oakes

Worried that the Bible isn't relevant? Think culture dictates our reality? You're not alone. Open-mindedness... And Other Lies is my journey from jail to missionary surgeon. Asking those very questions, I dared God to reveal Himself. To my amazement He answered-waiting for someone audacious enough to ask. Trusting the Bible to be relevant, I found answers to tough questions. ... Open-mindedness, the new Christian value...and how it leads to apostasy ... How traditional submission and co-leadership in marriage both violate God's plan ... Capitalism: Jesus praises it...just not our American version ... Learning that both "young earth" and "old earth" creationists are right...and wrong ... How Christian beliefs in a soul protect our environment ... How modern science supports the concept of a "soul" ... Whether our modern "hope and change" is biblical ... And how the five fools of Proverbs lay out Satan's plan in a nutshell ... Open-mindedness... And Other Lies confirms that the Bible is essential to engage these pretenders/enemies of your faith.
