Know the hereticsThere is a lot of talk about heresy these days. The frequency and volume of accusations suggest that some Christians have lost a sense of the gravity of the word. On the other hand, many believers have little to no familiarity with orthodox doctrine or the historic distortions of it. Whats needed is a strong dose of humility and restraint, and also a clear and informed definition of orthodoxy and heresy. Know the Heretics provides an accessible travel

There is a lot of talk about heresy these days. The frequency and volume of accusations suggest that some Christians have lost a sense of the gravity of the word. On the other hand, many believers have little to no familiarity with orthodox doctrine or the historic distortions of it.

What’s needed is a strong dose of humility and restraint, and also a clear and informed definition of orthodoxy and heresy. Know the Heretics provides an accessible “travel guide” to the most significant heresies throughout Christian history. As a part of the KNOW series, it is designed for personal study or classroom use, but also for small groups and Sunday schools wanting to more deeply understand the foundations of the faith.

Each chapter covers a key statement of faith and includes a discussion of its historical context; a simple explanation of the unorthodox teaching, the orthodox response and a key defender; reflections of contemporary relevance; and discussion questions.

______________

This book has truly been an excellent primer on the heretical roots that orthodox Christianity has come up against! Justin Holcomb outdid himself; Know the Heretics is an excellent introduction to Apologetics and having a sound hermeneutic for orthodox Christian study of the Bible. I am no MDiv., but more of an armchair theologian-meaning I enjoy books that challenge and provide understanding that do not require an MDiv. just to understand the Introduction. Justin Holcomb writes this book in such a way that makes it challenging, thought-provoking and yet palatable and approachable. Each chapter begins with the history of the particular heretic being studies, their background,t he historical context in which they and/or their views arose, and really sets the stage to understanding where they erred in orthodox Christianity. Once the stage has been set-briefly, succinctly-yet powerfully, Holcomb then shares the Orthodox response to the heresy. Given today's age where you have to know what you believe and why, this is greatly appreciated! Make no mistake, Holcomb gives as impartial a view as possible without delving into denominational issues of difference! Once the response has been shared, then time is taken to discuss contemporary relevance. The text does a wonderful job of not being paternalistic nor patronizing to other (unorthodox) beliefs. Interestingly enough, it is of note to see how history-and heresy-often repeat themselves-among and outside of the orthodox church. Wrapping up each chapter are discussion questions and sources. The questions are not "Little Bunny Foo-Foo" questions either! You can go through them alone and/or in a group and yield some impactful reflection and discussion. All of his sources are legit and lend themselves to additional reading and discussion as well. Great read! AltarEgo23

Best fun indestructible toy
Color: Crinkle Duck (Yellow), Size: Large
Truly indestructible no matter how much our oittie tries. She has owned it for three months works at destroying every day with no success. She carries it everywhere. Best purchase for chewer, more fun than the popular rubber heavy duty toy. Do not hesitate your pup will thank you for this fun distraction.

My dog loves this toy!
Color: Bunny (Gray), Size: Large, Color: Bunny (Gray), Size: Large
High quality, big toy, perfect for a medium to large size dog. After a few months of serious chewing I had to buy another one, but well worth the money! Rocky loves it.

Great toy but if your dog is an aggressive chewer, please think twice.
Color: Crinkle Chicken (Brown), Size: Large
I received this on May 23rd and on June 8th, after playing with this thing every day, our recently acquired 36 lb dog finally ripped it open and got out all the plastic and the squeaky part. Lily Belle will miss you, chicken. Lily loooooved this toy! She'd toss it in the air, chew on it, pull it with her teeth etc. but as much as she loved it, we won't replace it. It's just not durable enough for her. If your dog is an aggressive chewer, you might want to try a different toy. I hate that this lasted just a smidge over two weeks because Lily seemed to truly enjoy this toy. RIP, squeaky chicken!

Very durable!
Color: Blue T-Bone, Size: 1 Count
Great product! Dogs love it and very durable. I had been buying the nylon bones in pack of 3, but my 2 dogs would chew them up in no time, and I was buying the aggressive chewer bones. Bought 2 of these, dogs loved it, so I bought another one. Have had these for about 2- 2 1/2 months and still holding up just fine. And the price is great! Would definitely recommend!
