Publisher's summary

How do we live faithfully in a country becoming more and more hostile to our faith in Christ? Like the Israelites in Babylon, we must find a way to maintain our faith in the midst of a pagan culture. But that requires we answer two crucial questions: How did we get here? How do we prepare for the dark and difficult days ahead?

In The Church in Babylon, Dr. Lutzer answers both of these questions. He will walk you through the many parallels between the church in America and God’s people in Babylon and embolden you to be a gospel witness. You’ll be encouraged not to compromise your faith even when under constant pressure from all corners of society. And more than all this, you will have a fresh encounter with Jesus Christ as you consider the biblical role of those in exile.

Winding walk through the state of our culture, country and church

Because I know his voice from Moody radio, I wish Dr. Lutzer narrated, but Mr Geoffrey kept me focused.

Definitely a book for any concerned Christian; convicting and informative.

Very good content

It is exactly what is going on in today’s mainstream church. I was convinced by my lack effort in sharing the gospel. God’s touch upon Erwin Lutzer

Great Book

great breakdown of what the church looks like today and what we need to be on the watch for. Many red flags are happening in churches today, the believer needs to keep a sharp eye out

A Challenge

Dr. Luther presents a challenge for the modern church based on a correlation with the Hebrew nation in captivity. It is a correlation that I had never seen before. It brought comfort to me to know that in these uncertain times there is a road map for navigation because some has been here before. Question is: "What will my response be?"

Best Christian Books I've Read In A Long Time!

I trust the wisdom from Erwin Lutzers. He has seen it all. His discernment is impressive. This is a book unlike all the others. He is not afraid to tell the blunt truth. Finally, a dose of real truth and common sense which is rare to find these days. This is one of those books I will read over and over. His deep understanding of our culture and people in general....only comes from half a century of sharpening that skill. Very few people have this ability.

Btw...I never write reviews. I get nothing out of it. But, this book is something everyone should be talking about but most have never heard of it. It will probably remain that way because our society prefers feel good lies over truth. The truth will set you free!
