5.0 out of 5 stars Re: Sola Scriptura is very Catholic and Orthodox., August 14, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Of Preaching in America (Trilogy for Christ, Pt 2) (Paperback)

I have read he second work of the Trilogy for Christ of Thomas El-Khoury and am not a bit disappointed.

As a Syriac Orthodox Christian, El-Khoury takes issue with the "feel good" and easy brand of Christianity in the USA. El-Khoury a master theologian, teacher, linguist and author of many works "debates" here the likes of Jimmy Swaggart, Billy Graham ,Spong and other great names of Protestantism. Not only does he find and negate their teachings, by using and quoting scriptures, but goes on the offensive on may theological fronts especially on Mary, the Eucharist, the rapture and eschatology.

The book is a defence of Orthodox and Catholic Christianity against a Protestant tradition ever more divisive and liberal in its teachings.

Thomas El-Khoury is uncompromising when it comes to refuting the Protestant liberal treatment of the same Bible that they preach. Sola Scriptura a la Thomas El-Khoury becomes very Catholic and very Orthodox.

An excellent book. Thumbs up.
