Christian Alternative 21200323 Han Sol Park
1. Pseudoscience/Jesus is the truth John 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God
2. Immorality/Judgement 2 Cor 5:10 For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, that each one may receive what is due him for the things done while in the body, whether good or bad.
3. Blind faith/ Acknowledging the Lord Hos 6:3 Let us acknowledge the LORD; let us press on to acknowledge him.
4. $cientology/god is fair Acts 15:9 God promised that everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be blessed and saved.
