Norman De Jong tells it like it is. But in this book he does something far more important and helpful than merely sorting out the truth-tellers from the liars. He gives the reader tools for making those distinctions on his own. He shows the reader how to develop both an objective and an intuitive sense for knowing whether the truth is being told in any given situation. That is a profound and critical gift in this relativistic age.

Separation of Church and State Back in Print
|
"Since World War II Americans have increasingly come to believe
in separation of church and state, yet the majority also want prayer in
the public schools and a return to traditional religious values. With
limited knowledge of early American history, they assume that the Supreme
Court has been correct in recent church-state cases, when the majority
have decided that the First Amendment demanded a "wall of separation"
between church and state.
Norman De Jong and Jack Van Der Slik challenge those assumptions
and explode the myth that surrounds them. In clear, lucid language they
trace the efforts of the original thirteen states to develop strong bonds
of support between religion and government. Powerful examples from our
American history, well documented, will convince you that our courts
have made serious legal mistakes in trying to impose a "separation wall"
on American practice.
This volume should be required reading for every lawyer, judge,
politician, and government leader concerned with the contemporary debate
over religion and politics. |

Jesus at one time made the claim: "I am the truth" (John 14:6). He also said to His beloved Apostle Peter, "Get behind Me, Satan" (Matt. 16:23). Jesus issued that stinging rebuke, not because He hated Peter, but because He loved him. Peter was being used by the devil to steer Christ away from the cross. Jesus knew, though, that He had to suffer that horrible death on that cruel cross in order to save His people.
Satan will use anyone and everyone in his warfare against Christ and His church. Satan will take the very Word of God and twist and distort it to his own advantage. Satan lies all the time because he is the father of lies and "there is no truth in him"(John 8:44). Satan uses politicians, pastors, teachers, Wall Street, friends and neighbors to propagate his perversions of the truth. Our job, as Christians, is to "test the spirits to see whether they are from God, for many false prophets have gone out into the world" (I John 4:1). This book will help in that important task.
This latest book is available from your local bookstore or by ordering from Redeemer Books. Read it, enjoy it, and become armed for the war against Satan. He will not rest. Neither should you or I. |

TAKING THOUGHTS CAPTIVE
|
|
The Apostle Paul knew that all of us are involved in intense conflcts for the minds and souls of our fellow men. He reminded his readers, "Though we walk in the flesh, we do not war according to the flesh, for the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh, but divinely powerful for the destruction of fortresses. We are destroying speculations and lofty things raised up against the knowledge of God, and we are taking every thought captive to the obedience of Christ" (II Cor. 10:3-5). Some call it "the great Antithesis", while others label it "the culture wars", and still others dub it "a daily spiritual battle".
We speak the truth in love. We take thoughts captive and bring them in obedience to Jesus Christ. We proclaim the truth with the prayer that it might take root in the hearts of our enemies. We model our Savior and Lord.

IS CHRISTIANITY ANTI-INTELLECTUAL?
|
|
The answer is a resounding NO! Some may conclude that a high regard for Scripture produces weak, radical right-wing dummies. Nothing could be further from the truth! |
