1.0 out of 5 stars What absolute trash!
This doesn't give me the option of rating this zero stars. I wish it would. This is the biggest load of garbage I have ever seen. The message here is not just abstinence is the best way, but the ONLY way. It claims that every piece of sex ed kids receive in school is a lie and that only abstinence can protect them from disease and pregnancy.
This message opens...

5.0 out of 5 stars Solid message, interesting twist, relates to the common teen, November 10, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: The Love Killer (Paperback)
I really loved this book. Not only does it deliver a solid message, but it shows how the forces and heaven and hell are in constant battle, and earth is the field. Plus it features a great LD debate (I'm a debater). And I also like the chapter summeries where you can get the author's feelings and statistics. Overall- I would recommend this to any teen!

4.0 out of 5 stars Accurate Depiction of Teen Struggles, February 22, 2008
This was a great depiction of what it is like to be a teen and dealing with the desires for romantic relationships. I thought the flow was great and accurately depicted typical scenarios. However, I would like to see more propaganda for teens to not only abstain from sex but from the heavy kissing and petting that only deepens the threat of temptation to have sex. It saddens me the examples set for young people that heavy kissing which almost always involves petting is just part of dating. Where is the message of saving every part of your body? Overall this was a great book to interest a young person. I am a parent of a pre-teen and she will be reading this book as part of educating her on the dangers of stepping out of God's Plan for her and her body. Thanks Josh for being so active in this way.

1.0 out of 5 stars What absolute trash!, November 12, 2003

This review is from: The Love Killer : a novelplus
This doesn't give me the option of rating this zero stars. I wish it would. This is the biggest load of garbage I have ever seen. The message here is not just abstinence is the best way, but the ONLY way. It claims that every piece of sex ed kids receive in school is a lie and that only abstinence can protect them from disease and pregnancy.
This message opens them up to disastor however. Yes, abstinence before marriage is a good thing... but if your spouse wasn't as virtuous as you were before marriage, them may still pass on an STD if they aren't using condoms!

It's also terribly heavy handed with its moral and actually has the demons sitting activelly plotting to teach people sex ed so as to get them to sin.

Add to this a shoddy grasp of biblical texts. It claims that "Flee sexual immorality" is a Commandment. Apparently it's using some OTHER bible.

This book insults the intelligence of people everywhere and should in circumstances EVER be given to children to read.
