One of its key weaknesses is that Frank Viola is man who is very strongly opposed to Scriptural gender role distinctions. You can look up his teachings on I Corinthians 11:2-16 and 14:34-35, for example, and get a good sense of how he mocks the plain meaning of these beautiful passages. He would be right at home in a very loose and casual and sensual living room atmosphere for church where the men and women alike freely speak up with whatever comes to their minds at the moment, and the things of the Scriptures such as feminine head covering and modesty are despised. Read the book for seeing the pagan origins of various modern practices, but not for obedience to the Scriptures. Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
