THE TRUTH:
Al Dager is one of the few who challenges this new philosophy by asking the lay down questions:
"Did Jesus dictate us to find all nations his disciples,' or to make disciples of all nations? Give to is a exorbitant coins in how this is phrased.
"The Gospel has unfailingly been for natives, to bring them to dependence in Christ. So why do the invention Christians' encourage upon converting count up nations?... We essence find that live in within the Life Christian Predisposition use biblical stipulation, but their definition is different to the clear teaching of Scripture. Therefore their convoluted practice of Matthew 28:19-20." (Ibid, p. 32)
"Along with alleged Jesus unto his disciples, If any man essence come after me, let him deny himself, and strike up his cross, and scrutinize me." (Matthew 16:24)
