Ratings and reviews

I find it very ironic that you are SELLING a book and profitting from MISGUIDING the people. False religions tend to SELL "info" despite how inaccurate it may be. The Word is FREE for those who seek it....no need for this 9.99 app. I see it as taking advantage of ones desire to gain accurate knowledge. Christ said go and make disciples, not charge and make a profit. Shame Ron and ALL the FALSE BOOKS he wrote. Christ gave PERFECT knowledge FREELY. Why on earth would someone PAY to be misguided. Apostasy.

I only "perused" through the first few pages of the sample and found a number of either misrepresented or actually false understandings of Witness teaching. I am one of Jehovah's Witnesses and I did take the time to read the portion available. I do commend Mr Rhodes on his studies of the scriptures and the teachings of another religion, as he pointed out, we should all be like the Borean's and examine carefully any teaching that is presented to us. But we should also examine the fruit that is produced.

The book is for those who do not really know the ins and out of the original Greek, so Mr Rhodes plays on the ignorance and presuppositions of his readers. The scholar Greg Stafford in his book, "Jehovah's Witnesses Defended" (second edition) exposes the flaws and outright bias of Mr Rhodes. Stafford, in his book gives several examples of where Mr Rhodes is economic with the empirical facts, so rather than just take his word for it at face value, obtain a copy of Mr Stafford's book and Mr Rhodes' and then compare both to the empirical facts!
