Overview

The church has drifted away from the simple truth found in the Bible. What Jesus taught, what the apostles wrote and what the early church practiced has been diluted, rejected, modified and often abandoned outright. Our enemy, Satan, and his forces have been hard at work helping to fill the void with man-made teachings and philosophy that have made the church the vanilla, bland, nearly indistinguishable-from-the-world institution it has become. We live in dangerous times. The world is pressing in around the church. Our influence is waning. Our witness is rejected by a majority of young people. And it all seems so - normal right spiritual sacred - maybe sacred is the right word. The delusions that we live and worship under have become sacred. Like the Jews in Jesus day, who could not see the truth for their love of their religion and law, the church and her leaders have become desensitized to God's Word in certain areas where doctrine has been taught in lieu of biblical truth. In Restoring the Restoration, Scott has dared to dig into these sacred deceptions with pointed questions, Biblical thoroughness and a bit of humor. The Restoration Movement was an attempt to restore the church to her original beliefs and teachings. In the 19th and early 20th century it was quite successful. Sadly, the Movement did what most movements do - they settled in and took comfort in the changes that others before them had made. As a successful brotherhood of churches, many of the 21st century Restoration Movement churches have become more and more mainstream and no longer seek their first century roots. You'll get angry. You may throw the book across the room. Scott is brashly in your face in this fast moving, challenging read.
