Reconstructionism - thinly disguised anti-semitism

Many individuals simply are unaware that there is a small but growing group of Christian legalists who want to take over the courts, the legislatures and other civic functions to create a theocratic state instead of a democracy here in the US. This model is then to be extended to the world at large where all mankind, of all religious persuasions would be subject to this theocratic belief. What Islam would have worldwide by way of the sword, Reconstructionists would have by way of the so-called intelligencia of the Christian world imposing on that same world, with penalties for disobedience ranging from disfellowship to stoning. Such is the goal of this small but politically active segment of the Evangelical Christian community called Reconstructionism. Ice and House bring historical as well as biblical horsepower to bear in bringing Reconstructionism to account on issues which truth-seeking fundamental and evangelical Christians need to understand in these Last Days. As Ice and House's well documented discussion points out, many of these Reconstructionists may well be born-again believers but much of their self-styled theology appears to have been scrambled in the frappe cycle of mom's blender. Equally good as a history book of Christianity since the first century. Exposes the growing links between Roman Catholic, Reconstructionist, and Manifest Sons of God/Latter Rain(charismatic) beliefs. Our Jewish friends should read this book to help them distinguish the difference between this so-called "intelligencia" of the Christian Right who espouse a thinly veiled anti-semitism in their theology and firm, bible-beliveing Evangelicals and Fundamentalists who do not have to parse words and phrases in the bible to understand and explain the past, present and future of the Jews and Israel.

Superb...exposes Dominionism/Reconstructionism as heresy

Thomas Ice is a former Dominionist/Reconstructionist and therefore understands the theology of this heretical "Christian" belief system. Those who have experienced being inside an heretical/apostate organization or group have a superb grasp of the tenets and subtleties of the belief system. Thomas Ice does a splendid job of explaining and exposing what Dominionism really is and those who perpetrate this theology. When did Dominionism start? How has it flourished...all this and more is answered in this excellent book! It's a necessary piece for anyone seeking the truth of much of today's "political Christian" right and false doctrines.

A Very Bad Joke....

'nuf said. If you buy this book you've wasted your money. However, if you DID buy this book, you must also buy "House Divided", and "No Other Standard". After all, you don't want to be biased now, do you?
