Christians are told that the Old Testament is no longer applicable but at the same time Christians are being told that the Moral Laws in the Old Testament are still binding on all men. The Moral and Ceremonial Laws were given to the ancient people of Israel. When did they become applicable to all men and who determines the ones that are applicable?
The same area of New York State that was at the center of The Second Great Awakening of the 1840's that saw millions coming into the church also produced new denominations and prophets. The fuel for this revival was the hellfire preaching which the new denominations rejected and declared that they wanted a restoration of primitive Christianity. The early Christians had to rely on the personal testimony of the disciples that were trained by Jesus Christ and the visions of Paul. More than a thousand years of having organized Christianity and the completed Bible had passed so how was it possible to return to the primitive?
These and other questions are explored in The God Fighters (Religion, Confusion and Restoration). A layman's look at the Bible, religion and the confusion that is associated with both today.
