Customer Reviews

Student Pastor

This book doesnt cut corners or try to sugar coat the truth. Mormons are NOT Christians, the Christ they claim to worship, is not the Christ of the Bible, it is the Christ thought up in the mind of J. Smith and further propogated by more lies to cover up the first. Mormons need to stop saying "That is not what we believe" and realize what the "church" itself teaches. This book shares the truth and I have used it in classes and educated many teens so that they can know the truth when an Elder comes by and uses all the same Christian words they are familiar with. Mormons claim Christians are going to hell and are apostate and yet they are trying to appear Christain. Amazing! I feel badly for Mormons becuase most of them are sincere and are lied to. This book exposes just the tip of the iceberg on the depths of deception this cult goes to.

This book does tell the truth

I am a high school student. I have been reading many books on cults in the past years of my life to learn, who, what, and where they are. This book is very accurate on what it says. I enjoy reading it andit speaks the truth. Some of the passages can be taken out of context and changed in this book to sound as if it is bad, but you must read all of it to understand. This book is taken out of context just like the Bible is by cults. Anybody, child, teen, adult, who is interested in learning about different cults should know this is a good place to start. It explains cults in good terms. I would also suggest reading, "So What's the Difference?" It is a book that talks about all religions and which ones are cults. This book is good. It has some very good references to Bible passages.

An outstanding book to give a high school or college student

This book is a must read for any young adult who will encounter false gospels. It gives a clear presentation of the truth as well as exposing the false teachings of many cults. While it does not go into great details in some areas, it provides a good solid starting point to educate christians about the dangers of false teachings. It should inspire its readers to do more research into these areas and allow them to "be ready" to give a defense.

great book in a language teens can understand

This is a great book truthful and very easy to understand. it is easy to see why many people would find it insulting as it is very blunt with the truth but that is whats needed i would recomend this as a guide for any Christian with children faced with religious pressures in school

Extremely accurate.

I have read this book and studied a lot of Mormonism. I can't tell you about the rest of the cults they talked about in this book, but I can tell you that the information given about the Mormons is extremely accurate. The explanation of a cult is very good and the way they talk about cults is so true. You know that if you've ever talked to a door-to-door missionary that this book is very accurate and they have done a wonderful job at explaining who and what the cults are and believe.
