“Listen, let me tell you something very simple: truth gains nothing from dialogue with error; that is pointless. And in the evangelical world today the climate is, “Let’s dialogue. Let’s sit down with Muslims, and let’s sit down with the Roman Catholics, and let’s sit down with Orthodox Jewish people, and let’s sit down with these other people, and we’ll grown in the dialogue.” You know what happens in dialogue? Nothing good. You want to be patient with people; you want to be loving and gracious. I don’t need the Islamic view of anything to interpret the Bible. Do you understand that? I don’t need the Mormon view of anything to interpret the Bible; that’s not a necessary element. Error provides no insight to truth. Error is not a hermeneutic. I don’t interpret the Bible better because now I’m a buddy with a Muslim.” TRUTH. Excerpt from BATTLE FOR THE TRUTH, Part I, by John MacArthur
