Description

There are many types of lie, but perhaps the most dangerous and deceptive of all is the half–truth. A manipulative distortion of truth, it sounds convincing but is destructively distant from what is true. Flip Michaels tackles five half–truths that are commonly used as arguments against the validity of the Bible, Christianity, God, Christ and faith. He clearly and engagingly unveils the whole truth and explains why understanding the whole meaning is crucial. These five truths are:

The Bible was written by men and inspired by God.

All religions are the same, except Christianity.

God is love and holy, holy, holy.

Jesus is truly a man and truly God.

Our good deeds matter when preceded by faith.

 

A useful evangelistic tool, a helpful clarification for new believers or a valuable reminder for those who have been believers for a long time.

Flip Michaels, a man with his finger on the pulse of culture, has catalogued the principle half–truths and deceptive jargon that inform the present–day dismissal of Christianity—both in the academy and on the street. Then, through incisive logic, the author demonstrates that every half–truth is a subtle lie. And, on top of that, Flip winsomely provides the antidote with a marvelously down–to–earth defense of the Bible and Christian truth. Five Half Truths is a gift to the church and a needy world.

In theology, the best way to get people to reject a whole truth is to give them a half one. This is the trend that Michaels exposes here. Most popular theological truths are in tension with the other side—for example, the truth of heaven is paired with the truth of hell. But pushing one at the expense of the other, both are dismantled. If your view of God is too soft, too round, too watered–down, then read this book. It will challenge you by giving you the whole truth, and in that way it will give you back the real truth.
