Basic Equipment

"But you must continue in the things which you have learned and been assured of, knowing from whom you have learned them, and that from childhood you have known the Holy Scriptures, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus.  All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work." 
2 Timothy 3:14-17

     Nothing can top God's Word and prayer as the most important gospel equipment we have at our disposal.  They are crucial to effective evangelism and should be our first line of defense.  After all, the best way to spot a counerfeit is to know the real deal. 
     Here are some other good resources that may be helpful for specific cults or doctrinal issues. 
Links open in a new window.  Although we make an effort to review each link's content, we may have some doctrinal differences and are not responsible for all content on external links.  Please review our online Doctrinal Statements should questions arise about our stand on an issue or email with questions.
