Updated: Hagee Chapter Rewrite Bogus
December 9, 2007 by John
In a phone call inquiry to the ministry offices of Dr. Michael Brown yesterday we verified the facts surrounding Dr. Brown’s criticism of statements made in the book “In Defense of Israel”.
As reported previously, Dr. Brown has authored a paper reproving Hagee on the theologically abberant doctrines contained in the tenth chapter of the book and presented it to Hagee for response. Under pressure from many within the Evangelical community, Hagee apparently agreed to rewrite only that chapter, to appear in a new edition. Hagee had requested that Michael Brown withhold circulation of the paper until he was in receipt of the new chapter.
As of Thursday afternoon, December 6, Dr. Brown had received the manuscript, flown in from Texas, reviewed the document, and concluded that the rewrite is “not what was expected”, terming it “cosmetic”. According to the source at Michael Brown’s ministry, it is expected that Dr. Brown wil release his paper—Threshing Floor has requested a copy of the text, and to be updated on any further developments.
More as developments occur.
