New Book Available from the Kuyper Foundation

The Christian Passover: Agape Feast or Ritual Abuse?, a new book by the Director, Stephen Perks, is available from the books page. The book deals with the nature of Christian worship and the central ritual of the Church gathering, i.e. the Eucharist/Agape Feast, it's early practice, dismemberment, and abolition by the clergy in the first half of the first millennium (under the influence of a pagan religious worldview that still paralyses the modern Church, namely dualistic pietism), and its need for restoration if the Church is to accomplish the Great Commission. Don't be fooled into thinking that the Eucharists and communions or Lord's Suppers that are regularly celebrated in the Church today are the real thing. They are not. The post-apostolic Church took the form of the pagan religious rites of Rome and poured Christian content into them. The result, however, was that the Christian content got badly distored in the process.
