As the weeks go by, the reaction to Rob Bell and Love Wins continues. More people are taking a long look at what has been written down. There ought to be a critical and informed response to Love Wins - which will either lead to a proper rejection, a thoughtful acceptance, or at least more wisdom on what is true and good.

In my opinion, the best ongoing review of Rob Bell's Love Wins is by Scot McKnight, a professor at North Park University. He's a Christian from an Anabaptist tradition, which gives him a different perspective on the theology and hermeneutics (interpretation) revealed in Love Wins. You can check out his reviews at his blog Jesus Creed, the posts are called: Exploring Love Wins.

Here's a long and detailed post by Kevin DeYoung, a Reformed-theology minister from Lansing, Michigan. It's a 20 page rejection of the theology and hermeneutics of Love Wins, calling Rob Bell's teachings dangerous. He blogs regularly at TheGospelCoalition.org, his post is called: God is Still Holy and What You Learned in Sunday School is Still True. You may want to check out more of what Kevin DeYoung writes.
