"Farewell, Rob Bell": A Biblical Response to Love Wins - Paperback

by Larry Dixon Ph. D. (Author)

This book provides brief, biblical responses to the key issues raised by Rob Bell in his recent book. He accuses Evangelicals of hijacking the Jesus story and substituting a "toxic" one of their own. Evidence is provided in "Farewell, Rob Bell" to show that he is an inconsistent universalist, that his arguments are neither new nor original, and that the message "Jesus Redeems!" is a far better one than "Love Wins."
