Sharing Jesus with the Cults: How to handle the most common conversations Christians get into with cult membersEver been tongue-tied, or put on the defensive, by the following conversations?- "I'm a Christian too"- "Have you prayed about the Book of Mormon?"- "What is grace?"- "Why should I trust the Bible?"- "What is the Trinity?"- "What our church has to offer you is better"This book focuses on how to leverage these six conversations to foster dialogue and share the gospel with your friends who are caught up in a false belief system.Breakdown of the sectionsSection #1 - What is a cult? In this section we ask what a group needs to believe and/or practice in order to be considered a cult. We identify the common traits of cults and cult leaders: the use of mind control, scripture twisting, and the connection to ancient heresies and American history. We also ask the question what a person/group needs to believe and/or practice in order to be considered Christian.Section #2 - Overview of the cults In this section we cover the basic beliefs, history and terminology of the most predominant American cults. The cults we cover in this book are Mormons, Jehovah's Witnesses, Scientology, Christian Science, International Church of Christ, Seventh Day Adventists, Twelve Tribes, New Apostolic Reformation, United Pentecostal Church International and Great Commission ChurchesSection #3 - Tactics In this section we discuss the different strategies Christians can use in sharing the gospel with members of cults. These tactics are based on the six most common conversations Christians get into with cult members. What are the Six Conversations?1. The moment the cult member says, "I'm a Christian too!" or "You don't think I'm a Christian, do you?"2. The moment the cult member asks, "Have you read through or prayed about our Scripture?"3. Conversations with the cult member about grace in reference to salvation or rewards4. Conversations about the cult member's claims the Christian church needed to be restored due to a complete apostasy, or the Bible being corrupted through truths being removed, changed or added.5. Conversations about the Trinity6. Conversations regarding the claims of cults to know more about Jesus, have a restored priesthood authority, have better or more Scripture, have a living prophet or their group better represents true Christianity or the early Christian church.What others are saying about Sharing Jesus with the Cults: "Jason demonstrates careful research, abundant personal experience, and solid knowledge of the beliefs, practices and tactics of these cults. He is able to introduce the reader to a world of information without overwhelming the mind and senses. What impresses me most is that his goal is not to "prove the cults false," though he accomplishes this task nonetheless. His goal is to lead people who are caught up in cults to find meaning, life and peace in a saving relationship with Jesus Christ! Reading this book will help equip any compassionate Christian toward this same goal of leading others to our Savior." - Dr. Bill Fowler, Provost and Professor, Yellowstone Theological Institute, Bozeman, Montana"What is a cult and how can you easily identify them by their tell - tale traits? Jason Oakes nails it with this comprehensive examination of many of the most common cults. Find out what they believe, why they believe it and how you can reach loved ones who are caught up in these movements. This book is both perfect for new believers and seasoned saints alike." - Michael Boehm, Youth Apologetics Training
