Do Web
search engines dizzy you with information overload? Look no further! These
are some of the best Web links we can recommend when it comes to Christian
discernment and apologetic issues that believers can find on the Internet
today.
. We would strongly take issue with quite a few of the positions some of these sites may present. However, even sites such as these offer unique and informative perspectives that provoke serious reflection for both Christians and non Christians. Most of them offer great resources to the Body of Christ in the proclaiming and defense of the Christian faith - and the freedom of thought - that you just won't find anywhere else.

Worldwide COG/Splinters
The Worldwide Church of God, founded by Herbert W. Armstrong, at one time was considered a cultic organization. However, starting in the early 1990's, the leadership of the group began the process of steering it towards orthodox Christian faith. This has had a twofold result: the painful evolution of reversing decades of cultic thought and practice, and the inevitable exodus of WWCOG members who would not (or in many cases can not) accept change - and the formation of splinter groups attempting to perpetuate Armstrong's cultic teachings.
For the extraordinary story behind the WWCOG's advance towards orthodoxy, read the first link:
