Summary: Scripture Twisting - The Methods Untwisted
Comment: This is probably the best resource I've seen on understanding how so many can read the same Bible and get entirely different meanings. Sire's clear and understandable writing style make the read enjoyable as well as informative. I give this book the highest recommendation I can to anyone, Christian or otherwise, as a great introduction to how to get at the intended meaning of the Bible.

Summary: Calling Mormons a Cult = Clueless
Comment: In case the author forgot to rent a dictionary before he applied pencil to pad, a cult worships an individual, like Rev. Jim Jones in Guyana. Members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (notice the name?) worship Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Get with the times. No one of any credibility believes the LDS Church is a cult. What, you missed Tom Brokaw's and Larry King's interviews with the President and Prophet of the Church? Read something worthwhile, and figure out for yourself what's true.

Summary: Scripture Twisting untwists the web of cult thinking
Comment: Scripture Twisting By James W.Sire is, I think, the single best book on this subject. It is rare to find a book which does more than label and bash cults. This book does much more. It thoughtfully explains the errors of biblical interpretation and standard theological thought that leaders of major cults have had, in order to come to their conclusions about God. It is also very instructive for those of us who may be guilty of "misreading" our own Bibles to prove our own points or underscore our own personal theologies, rather than letting the Bible speak for itself.
