Synopsis

This revised edition of the 2015 edition covers all the topics of the first one along with expanded coverage of spiritual gifts. There are six major sections. 1) Assumptions covers the impact of unstated assumptions in interpreting passages, the authority of Scripture, questionable ways of handling Scripture, covenants, the role of the Old Testament and the role of modern Jews. 2) Theological Stuff covers questions about God, sin, and salvation. 3) The Christian Life covers the Christian walk and fight and special days like Sunday, Christmas and Easter. 4) Church Stuff explores questions about church meetings and buildings as well as leadership, government, and practices. It includes communion, baptism and rules. 5) Charismatic Stuff covers spiritual gifts, manifestations of demons and the Holy Spirit. It explores terms and practices that are unique to these groups. 6) End Stuff explores questions about death, resurrection, Heaven and Hell and beliefs about end times.

All the questions are addressed by first presenting the complete text of all relevane Scripture passages and then a discussion of the different interpretations attached to the topic by various Christians.
