Of Preaching in America (Trilogy for Christ, Pt 2)

As a Syriac Orthodox Christian, El-Khoury takes issue with the "feel good" and easy brand of Christianity in the USA. El-Khoury a master theologian, teacher, linguist and author of many works "debates" here the likes of Jimmy Swaggart, Billy Graham ,Spong and other great names of Protestantism. Not only does he find and negate their teachings, by using and quoting scriptures, but goes on the offensive on may theological fronts especially on Mary, the Eucharist, the rapture and eschatology.

The book is a defence of Orthodox and Catholic Christianity against a Protestant tradition ever more divisive and liberal in its teachings.

Thomas El-Khoury is uncompromising when it comes to refuting the Protestant liberal treatment of the same Bible that they preach. Sola Scriptura a la Thomas El-Khoury becomes very Catholic and very Orthodox.

For the real skinny on the 179-year-old, fringe-British-invented (and ANTI-CATHOLIC) pretribulation rapture snorted by LaHaye, Lindsey, Hagee, the late Falwell etc., Google "Famous Rapture Watchers," "Pretrib Rapture Diehards," "Pretrib Hypocrisy," "America's Pretrib Rapture Traffickers," and "Pretrib Rapture Dishonesty" - all by the only researcher and historian who has focused on that bizarre view for 40 years. (Needless to say, he has long been on the "black list" of every leading rapturist!) Check this out! Sidney
