Beyond Seduction: A Return to Biblical Christianity

by Dave Hunt

A revolution has begun. Some have hailed this revolution as a much needed purification of the Church. Others say that it well lead to a major schism in Christianity. Since the release of the bestselling THE SEDUCTION OF CHRISTIANITY, Christians everywhere have come face-to-face with this undeniable we must be certain that what we believe is firmly based upon the teaching of God's Word. The only real remedy for deception and apostasy is a return to a true biblical foundation for Christian living. Hunt's book sounds the call for a return to the sacrificial life that Christ required and the abundant life He offers.

Excellent follow up book to The Seduction of Christianity. I read this book when it was first released in 1986 and decided it was worth revisiting. Although a sequel to his first book on the topic, this book is actually better overall. In addition to exposing many false teachings as the first book did, this volume spends much more time on the solution to the problem. Specifically it is a continual call for Christians to return to the Bible as their sole source of spiritual nourishment, for all things pertaining to life and doctrine, and for growth in their faith while eschewing what the world offers through the occult, psychology, humanism, religion, and every other muddy stream available to man. There are many passages worth quoting from the book but to prevent this becoming a 10,000 word review I will cite just one: "Christianity was never intended to be a follow-the-leader-blindly-cult. It is the personal responsibility and privilege of each individual Christian to be immersed in the Word of God, to study diligently, to meditate upon it, and to live by it. The Christian life is a 24-hour-per-day seven-days-per-week full-time commitment – not a game to play on the side. Nor is it a club to join that goes through its routine at certain hours of special days in designated tax-exempt properties so that those who faithfully (or even sporadically) attend can feel the satisfaction of having done a duty and then get back to living life in the real world." (from Chapter 3 -- Contending for the Faith)

Christian psychology is the Trojan horse for the Christian church. Psychology says we are good but something in life has affected us to give us problems. The Bible says we are bad and our issues cone from lack of faith in Jesus.
