Too outrageously false to even bother with.
“Why do you not understand what I am saying? It is because you cannot hear My word. 44“You are of your father the devil, and you want to do the desires of your father. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth because there is no truth in him. Whenever he speaks a lie, he speaks from his own nature, for he is a liar and the father of lies. 45“But because I speak the truth, you do not believe Me. 46“Which one of you convicts Me of sin? If I speak truth, why do you not believe Me? 47“He who is of God hears the words of God; for this reason you do not hear them, because you are not of God.” -John 8
So News-WEAK is all of a sudden so concerned about the validity of our faith. Right.
You won’t find Newsweak in a doctor’s waiting room anymore. It no longer exists in the print realm.
It was sold for a DOLLAR. It partnered online with The Daily Beast but even they left them.
It’s strictly a website now.
Small circulation, high price tag.
Hard to see why they bother.
But in fact no more misrepresented than anything else in Newsweek.
What exactly is the Newsweek business model these days? Who actually pays for their content?
Schools and libraries will buy it (whereas they will NOT buy the Limbaugh Letter).
It brings them revenue (that a website will not) and it spreads their influence into institutions of learning.
So, perhaps Dr. Mohler is inadvertently helping them by giving them attention. Mohler and I grew up in an era when Newsweek was important. Now it’s not, so why comment at all when they are irrelevant? It only increases their visibility.
On the other hand, we know the liberals. If this were unopposed, they’d find a way to use that.
I conclude that Newsweak believes themselves to the source of truth, ethics and reality and must believe themselves to be gods. Bummer for them, I believe the one true God is not amused.
A tiny print edition was re-launched several months ago. Like you, I had no idea.
These days, that's like water in the desert.
**When it comes to Newsweek‘s cover story, “The Bible: So Misunderstood It’s a Sin,” Eichenwald appears to be far outside his area of expertise and knowledge. More to the point, he really does not address the subject of the Bible like a reporter at all. His article is a hit-piece that lacks any journalistic balance or credibility. His only sources cited within the article are from severe critics of evangelical Christianity, and he does not even represent some of them accurately. **
Some writers just don’t know how to write.
Al Mohler is a blessing in our era. He will as easily offer fair criticism to his brand of Christianity as he will the broader culture. He really seems to be an honest man. Rare.
***...blockbuster discoveries.*** WOW!
“Pertness and ignorance may ask in three lines a question that will take thirty pages of learning and ingenuity to answer;
And when this is done, the same question shall be triumphantly asked again the next year, as if nothing had ever been written on the subject.” -Bishop Horne 1831
Tonight, on the History Channel, begins a 3-part series called “REVELATION, END OF DAYS”
Newsweek, in its feeble attempt to be relevant, headlines a story about the Bible.
Hollywood struggles with attempts to make Bible-oriented films to attract the public.
This, after nearly a century of relativistic, critical scholarship attempting to to tell that world that the Bible is “Irrelevant”.
Interesting.......
LOL
