Murder in the Vestibule
Pastor Crane frowned at the bleak late winter landscape that confronted him through his picture window. At this midnight hour he was saddened by the thoughts of failure his work had faced over the previous years. He wondered if God was even at work in his church. Then offering a silent prayer for a seemingly transient girl who had briefly stopped into the secretary’s office that week he prepared for bed. His plans, however, were interrupted by the sudden ringing of the phone. “Pastor Crane,” the speaker said. “It seems there is an apparent murder suicide in the vestibule of your church. I’m sending a squad car to pick you up.” Was this the final death knell of his church or was God showing him that He was really at work?

DECEIVED
Backed by their liberal allies in politics, education, media and the courts, the homosexual lobby has come storming, both guns blazing, to the very doors of God's holy Church and demanded an equal position at the Lord's Table and the service of the ministry. Dr. Craig stands resolutely on the foundation Stone of Jesus Christ and says, "Wait a minute! This is not a secular institution! It is a spiritual one! It is not a mob driven democracy! It is an absolute Monarchy under the rule of King Jesus!" What does the great Triune God say about these demands? "Deceived" gives that answer, and with simple caring language, equips God's church to stand with confidence for the Word of truth against the encroaching deceit of the homosexual attack.
