"Are all so named Christian Movements, leaders, pastors, and churches really Christian? Are they all practicing historically accepted Christian teaching? What is really Orthodox Christian Theology anyway? There are so many movements that are growing and developing in modern Christendom. In the Divergent Theology series Richard P. Moore addresses many of the new theological streams of thought that are appearing in the new Christian landscape. Do you have the tools to discern between Biblical truth and Divergent or incorrect Theology?" In this first book Richard deals with the Teaching, Theology and Practice of the Word of Faith, Third Wave Movement and the New Apostolic Reformation. He compares their theological underpinnings to historical creedal Christianity, what he finds may surprise you." AMAZON
