Discipling Ministries: An Inside Look [Paperback]

Danny A. Dixon (Author)


Available from these sellers.



Book Description

October 1987
Should church leaders require specific quotas and regimented schedules of members? Do they have the authority to create arbitrary rules and laws without biblical foundation? Are they at liberty to demand submission to such rules without consideration of the members' opinions? Is it acceptable to measure the efforts of one ministry by the numerical successes of another?

These pressing questions address one of the most pressing concerns in the churches of Christ today- legalism in the discipling ministry movement. Specifically, the questions address the use of man-made-rules to govern evangelistic efforts. Many Christians feel that binding the methods being used by these ministries is contradictory to the Scriptures.

In Discipling Ministries: An Inside Look Danny Andre' Dixon thoroughly examines legalism and its, serious implications. He combines sound biblical scholarship and his own personal experiences to expose the doctrinal errors of legalism in modern ministries. His study answers many of the questions posed by church leaders and members everywhere.

Discipling Ministries: An inside Look divides biblical fact and human opinion. It makes clear the cloudy issue of legalism and its place in evangelistic ministries.
