THE FATHER OF ISLAMIC EXTREMISM Click on the link below (It is a pdf file) NEWS FLASH-------NEWS FLASH-------NEWS FLASH Announcing publication of a new book by Miguel Hayworth (Director of First Plumbline Apologetics)
"Christians today are being faced with the same issues that faced the early Christians. The packaging may be new but the root is always the same. The temptation to syncretize the message with the practices of the world around is just as great today as it was in the first few centuries of Christianity. We may not be "christianizing" the same Pagan Cults but we are attempting to "Christianize" culture in our attempts to "win the world for Christ.""

The exhibition traces the contested political and literary development of the Bible from the perspective of the Hampton Court conference of 1604, the decisive event at which was the proposal that the government sponsor the creation of yet another version. The result, the King James version was a stunning success. After its appearance in 1611, there would not be another major version for over 250 years. It is still recognised as one of the greatest monuments in the history of scholarship, Christianity, and the English language.
