REPLACING EVIL WITH GOODYour Instructors Pray You Won't Ask: How to Spot Humanism inthe Classroom or Pulpit. You can order a copy for $5.95, plus a dollarfor postage, fromInstitute forChristianEconomicsP O. Box 8000Tyler, TX 75711To say that 75 Bible Questions is controversial is an understatement.Pastors do not want their members reading such material. What ifyour pastor tells you to stop having study groups? You may choose tostop them, but you can still hand out copies of Conspiracy: A BiblicalView — not to everyone (most people aren't ready for it), but tointerested people. Let word of mouth tell the story. You need notbecome very visible if you choose not to.You need to show considerable judgment in who you invite toinvestigate the problem of conspiracy. If someone in your churchwere dying of an incurable disease, would you rush to him and handhim a copy of this book? Is that what he needs at this point? Or whatif there is some young couple which is having deep marital troubles.What if they are talking about divorce? Is their highest priority item aknowledge of conspiracies? What of the new convert, or the mentallydisturbed person who is suffering from depression? Is that the personyou are trying to recruit?No, what you need is a stable person, someone who is in a position totake a leadership position some day. This is the kind of person that theconspirators try to recruit. So should you. You need a person whoreads, votes, donates his time and money to charities, takes his kids onvacation each year, and generally is a credit to God's kingdom. Youshould not be trying to recruit the walking wounded, the spiritualbasket cases who wind up in the church. You need to be highlyselective in recruiting people to the cause.You need self-evaluation, too. Are you perceived as a "red hot"? Areyou perceived as a loose loaded cannon rattling around on the deck?Are you noted for your temporary commitment to this or that cause to"save the world" — causes that usually fail, and which have yet tosave the world? If so, you are a liability in the battle againsthttp://freebooks.commentary.net/freebooks/docs/html/gnco/html/8.htm (13 of 15) [5/26/2000 1:48:23 PM]
