Learning How to Distinguish Good and Evil

I believe that God's men must develop and exercise their discernment muscles. We're called to speak about truth, and distinguish good and evil.

Check out this useful analysis of Steve Chalke's book, "The Lost Message of Jesus" in a Banner of Truth article. Consider the tone of the article, and the careful wording. The author dissects this [unfortunately] popular book. See how the standards of orthodoxy are applied, wisely, tactfully.

We need to do the same kind of exercise with popular but wrong books like "The daVinci Code" and goofy "news hour" segments on TV.
