Resources by Topic: Doctrine and Theology

Nearly every false doctrine has a true component hidden in it that gets twisted and perverted. We need to understand that it’s not only Malachi 3 where God says He will provide for the faithful giver. 

Question from a reader: You quote from C.S. Lewis in your books often. I like Lewis too, but now I'm hearing that he's not biblical. I recently watched an online video that said he was a universalist. What do you think?

Today I’ll deal with Francis Chan’s Erasing Hell, another response to Rob Bell’s Love Wins. Then I’ll compare Chan’s book to Galli’s.

Today Mark Galli’s new book God Wins, published by Tyndale House, is available as an ebook at Amazon. 

Some say there is no authority structure or hierarchy within the Trinity, even though there are numerous scriptures where Jesus submitted to His Father (see John 5:19, 13:16, 14:12, Hebrews 5:8) but not one single passage that depicts the Father in submission to the Son or the Spirit.

In his article, "Is God a Monster?", Tommy Clayton puts his finger on the unpopular doctrine of Hell.

Your question is a good one. And when friends oppose our viewpoint, it’s a good time to look at the evidence once again ourselves.

Francis Chan is addressing the Hell debate, an ancient controversy sparked again recently by Rob Bell’s Love Wins. 

Harold Camping, the 89-year-old founder of Family Radio, has warned the world that Saturday, May 21, 2011 is when the rapture will occur and God’s Day of Judgment will begin. 

Recently I’ve been going back over hundreds of pages of notes and quotations that I compiled over years of research, but have never used in any of my books on Heaven. I came across this one from Spiros Zodhiates, taking from his book Life After Death.

In Scripture, God is said to enjoy, love, laugh, take delight, and rejoice, as well as be angry, happy, jealous, and glad. 

In this minute and a half video, Randy Alcorn talks about how God is a lavish giver. We can enjoy the people and things God has made, and in the process enjoy the God who designed and provided them for his pleasure and ours.
