I think that the right way to draw the line is according to the text, and not the author. Acts 17:11 « These were more fair-minded than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness, and searched the Scriptures daily to find out whether these things were so. » Crosswire's goal is to spread the Gospel. Does this text is really based on the Bible; does it reference relevant verses, without bypass keys verses against monophysite? Or is it based on other monophysite texts? I don't know this book, nor the author, nor this subject, but some of the books I readed (some evangelical, some catholics, some jews), are mostly not based on the Bible but on humain values, on cultures, on psychology; and thoses books have a really low value to my eyes. -- Sébastien Koechlin _______________________________________________ sword-devel mailing list: [email protected] http://www.crosswire.org/mailman/listinfo/sword-devel Instructions to unsubscribe/change your settings at above page
