Strange Fire by John F Macarthur
In ancient Israel there lived two priests who approached God without the reverence He deserves. They disregarded God's instructions and burned incense in His Tabernacle with strange fire . . . which He had not commanded them. And fire came out from the presence of the Lord and consumed them, and they died before the Lord (Lev. 10:2). Scripture calls us to worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness. Anything unholy -- including false prophecy, phony miracles, religious hypocrisy, self-willed worship, or anything else of the sort -- is a kind of strange fire, deserving of the most severe judgment. That is why pastor-teacher John MacArthur has written this treatise on a movement whose foundation and direction have betrayed the God they claim to represent. Laced with historical research, biblical support, and quotes from scholars across the spectrum, Strange Fire is a rigorous evaluation of the fastest growing segment of the American Christian church. And it is an important warning . . . - For those who want the church to be more inclusive, - For those on the lookout for miracles today, - For those who think charismatic refers more to worship style than substance, - For those who don't understand why celebrity preachers are constantly falling from grace, - For those who believe religious experience is more important than biblical fact, - For those who don't want to limit God or put Him in a box. Strange Fire is powerful, disturbing, and imminently necessary.
