Bible Question (short): Christian Response To Eastern Thought? |
Question (full): Dear Forum participants….I seek your help. An old friend of mine has been taken in by the Fulun Gong (Fulan Dafa, Falan Gong) movement here in the U.S. and I must find Christian critiques of this movement. (Why are Americans so intrigued by Eastern thought?) For the past few months I have searched the web and have come up empty. I chiefly find articles on Chinese repression of the sect. I should add that I have been to the FG web site and followed its’ links so I pretty much understand what they believe and, like other cults, that they are/will be gods some day. I have read their official guide to an introduction as well as the “masters” pronouncements. They are a crafty bunch!! There is much more of course and perhaps I will have to arrange my own doctrine by doctrine, point by point, response but any help you can provide will be much appreciated. I have only made headway from the Creation perspective. I have tried all the Christian resources I know of and have come up empty. The Americans who join the sect deny Jesus in the main, I suspect, as a refutation of their parents beliefs. Help nip this thing in the bud if you can. God Bless….Jensen |
