Bell and his publisher’s promo for the book have been released with the sole objective of creating just this sort of controversy. If Bell really cared, he could have just realeased a statement clarifying his position. Leaving the controversy open helps his book’s sales. He is like so many others who care more about publicity than about furthering Christ’s kingdom.<br /><br /><br />That to me is a great comment on the matter.GREVhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10415494137313565242noreply@blogger.com
