“5 Steps Toward the Death of a Movement of God”– Ed Taylor
“As much as we would like to see the opposite, movements of God among men don’t last forever, unfortunately. There seems to be a predictable pattern of God moving in wonderful miraculous ways and then over time the movement dies out and a new fresh work of God starts in another group of men and women. Church historians use the word ‘revival’ to describe these fresh works of God and how exciting they are! Over the years there have been many revivals and many movements of God that have faded away and left the simplicity and truth of the gospel.”

“Dawkins and the God Question”– The Gospel Coalition
“Dawkins treated us to a satirical reading from his Science in the Soul book. In the passage, Dawkins substitutes belief in God for belief in Thor, thus demonstrating how absurd the claims of theologians and believers look when applied to a god in which they do not believe. It was amusing. As a parlour game, it works well. As a serious argument it does not.”
