Deciphering The Da Vinci Code

Contributed by Rodney Buchanan on May 7, 2006

The book conflicts with history and Scripture at several important points: 1. The nature of Jesus Christ. 2. The nature of the relationship between Jesus and Mary Magdalene. 3. The nature of Scripture. 4. The nature of the church.

As we go through life, many different people call our name. And it’s amazing to me just how many different messages that can be conveyed to us, depending on just how people call our name: • When we’re growing up, our parents call our name. Sometimes that is done in a very calm, gentle, loving ...read more
