This is incompatible with Holiness teaching, and the free will view. <BR/><BR/>He claims to have exclusive rights on evangelism methods. He dismisses any other form of evangelism. He also claims this is the way Jesus evangelized. I think this is blasphemous, as Jesus made no such claims and Comfort’s extrapolation of a select few verses puts him on thin ice to make such bold assertions. <BR/><BR/>Lastly, Comfort has no time for discipleship. This, I believe goes along with Holiness teaching, however it isn’t strictly so and some Wesleyan Methodist theologians would take me to task on this, so I won’t lump it in the same category. <BR/><BR/>Comfort believes in confronting the unsaved with the gospel message, and then leaving him or her to fend for him or herself. I believe this is problematic for several reasons. Christianity cannot be understood with one conversation; there is a lot to take in. Most likely a new convert will fall away because there is so much to make sense of; it appears senseless at a glance. Discipleship is key for Christianity. I remember when I converted from atheism; I needed people to guide me. Comfort would have us fend for ourselves in an anti-Christian world. <BR/><BR/>That is a short of it. I didn't think this is something that would interest you, so I left it out. My apologies. <BR/><BR/>Have a good evening,<BR/>BrandonThe Philosopherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03953863138408277730noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19175024.post-1156803440187901832006-08-28T23:17:00.000+01:002006-08-28T23:17:00.000+01:00Such as...Such as...Goatboyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10502109731657272240noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19175024.post-1156803356067492842006-08-28T23:15:00.000+01:002006-08-28T23:15:00.000+01:00I've actually taken the Way of the Master program,...I've actually taken the Way of the Master program, from Kirk Cameron and Ray Comfort. That particular segment was meant to be a joke, so we could have a good laugh. He's actually a funny guy. You can actually see Kirk Cameron laughing in the video as Ray explains the atheist’s nightmare. <BR/><BR/>However, he does make a few serious points that most Christians would take issue with (theological issues).The Philosopherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03953863138408277730noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19175024.post-1156703600299002632006-08-27T19:33:00.000+01:002006-08-27T19:33:00.000+01:00Thanks matey.Likewise.Thanks matey.<BR/><BR/>Likewise.Goatboyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10502109731657272240noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19175024.post-1156695565242910572006-08-27T17:19:00.000+01:002006-08-27T17:19:00.000+01:00Thank for the link to this video.
