NONFICTION
BOOK INDEX |
Is Rescuing Right? is a biblical study not simply
of abortion related issues but of civil disobedience. While
the primary application is to the abortion issue, the biblical
and historical principles apply to any question of civil
disobedience. Though this book is now out of print, EPM still
has copies for sale.
"This
is a passionate but clear-minded examination of vital issues.
Steeped in Scripture, it provides a basic Christian
understanding of civil disobedience and examines the rescue
movement in depth. No one who cares about ending abortion
should miss reading this book."
Radio WRGN, Hunlock Creek, Pennsylvania
"Is rescuing right? In this well-researched book, Randy Alcorn
argues that the answer is yes: Non-violent civil disobedience
is biblical and Christians may participate in rescues. Alcorn
builds a strong case through several means: analyzing
instances of civil disobedience in the Bible and throughout
church history; asking Christians to whose authority are they
ultimately responsible, God's or man's; and presenting case
studies. He also answers criticisms against rescuing. This
book will help readers wrestle with an important issue."
Moody Magazine
"In Is Rescuing Right?, Alcorn treats this volatile subject
with sensitivity. The book is based on his own experience of
studying the issue, sifting through his beliefs, and finally
aligning his convictions with the rescue movement. This book
is an admirable example of understanding and tolerance toward
an opposing viewpoint."
The Bookstore Journal
"Of all the books on the topic, Is Rescuing Right? is the
best. You don't have to agree with the rescue movement to
benefit from the arguments in this book. The author covers a
lot of biblical and historical ground. If you are not sure of
the biblical arguments for and against Christian resistance,
then Is Rescuing Right? is the best place to start."
American Vision Magazine
"An excellent resource for those on both sides of the issue,
and for the undecided."
The Christian Herald
