Negative Positive
Title: Modernistic, New-Agey claptrap
Review: Okay, in all honesty, there are a few good points made, but too many important facts are missing, and Pastor Warren seems to utilize some questionable methods. First, there is really NO real covering of the issue of "How to Get Saved"-without that first being established, the rest is useless self-righteousness, which are as filthy rags in the eyes of God. Also, in Chapter 11, it is suggested to use "breath prayers", short words or phrases, repeated over and over again, to "practice the presence of God". That's identical to the vain repitions used by various eastern cults when in meditation, and very similar to the positive affirmations used in pop-psycology and the New Age. Then, there is the issue of accepting worldliness and disposing of biblical, Christian separation from apostates, along with more, ad nauseum, all adds up to a pretty poor excuse for a Christian book. I recommend trying some good "Sword of the Lord" literature, instead. Or just, uh, the Bible?
Is the review positive or negative?
