Same Kind of Different As Me
I just finished a book called “Same Kind of Different As Me.” I think this book has the potential to change my life. It is not filled with or discussions of the new covenant or deep Christology, it is just a book about serving Christ in a way that I think many of us would benefit from hearing. If you are the type of person that loves to study God’s Word then I think this book would help tremendously. I finished the book in three sittings, my wife finished it in two, it won’t take long to read. You’ll probably spend more time recommending it to others than reading the book. I don’t want to ruin the story for you so I’ll just give you the author (Ron Hall and Denver Moore) and the ISBN: 978-0-8499-1910-7. To make it even simpler, I’ll provide you with a link.

Read the article concerning the transformation of John Macarthur’s church at the link following this excerpt:
———
Of interest, Grace Community Church elder and executive director of Grace to You, Phil Johnson, is a Baptistic Calvinist. This statement appears on his website: “Theologically, Phil is a committed Calvinist—with a decidedly Baptistic bent.” (Who is Phillip R. Johnson?) Even more interesting is this statement: “He…is a member of the Fellowship of Independent Reformed Evangelicals (FIRE).” The slogan of FIRE is “In essentials Unity, In non-essentials Liberty, in all things Charity.” (FIRE) Why is this interesting? FIRE’s slogan is nearly identical to the slogan of Phoenix Freemasonry! “It is the glory of Masonry to teach Unity in essentials, Liberty in details, Charity in all things; and by this sign its spirit must at last prevail.”

Thank you for posting a review of “Same Kind of Different as Me.” I work with Thomas Nelson, and we would love to follow your blog and hear what readers think of this exciting book. I also want to let you know that Ron and Denver have just released a new book “What Difference Do It Make?” which updates readers on their activity since the last book came out. Please contact me if you are interested in receiving a complimentary copy of the new book for review on your site.
