More Than These:
A Call for Reformation

By Pastor Ralph Ovadal

270 pages,
$8
© 2004 Heart of the Matter Publications
ISBN: 0-9665251-1-6

"Pastor Ovadal's book, More Than These, clearly states both the past and current trend in the pro-life movement. As a Director of a pregnancy care center, I am frequently confronted with false Roman Catholic beliefs at conferences, in other pro-life books, and brochures designed for use in a pcc ministry. In addition, I also receive condemnation because I refuse to invite Roman Catholic volunteers or staff to serve in the ministry. The lines are indeed becoming blurred between most 'evangelical' churches and the Catholic Church." 
Dianne Pomon, RN, Executive Director, Genesis PCC, Pottstown, Pennsylvania

"I consider it a valuable resource in the midst of the battles of ecumenism that are raging. . . . [S]ound fundamental pastors . . . should find this book a real asset to their stand for the truth." 
Dr. Bill Jackson, Director, Christians Evangelizing Catholics (www.dodone.org)

"A compelling historical account of how the Pro-Life Movement has advanced the cause for ecumenical unity with the Catholic Church. Learn how doctrinal distinctives have been blurred to make the Catholic Church appear as Christian. See how spiritual deception, confusion and compromise have been ushered in through a good cause." 
Mike Gendron, Director, Proclaiming the Gospel Ministries, July/August 2004 newsletter

"With undeniable documentation Pastor Ralph Ovadal reveals the way many evangelical Christians have been deceived into embracing the Roman Catholic Church. Under the premise that 'the end justifies the means,' gullible Christians have allowed a 'Trojan Horse' to enter their minds and ministries.

"The Church of Rome has always been and continues to be the enemy of the pure Gospel message. It is well for God's own to understand both the danger and the damage being done in the pro-life movement. This book clearly underlines the precepts of Biblical separation so desperately needed today. Read it, and as you do you will recognize God's work must
be done God's way if we want God's blessing." 
Dr. Ralph G. Colas, Executive Secretary, American Council of Christian Churches (www.amcouncilcc.org)

"This book explodes the myth that Protestants can unite with Roman Catholics in activities such as Pro-Life actions. Concise and layer by layer investigations coupled with the solid backing of Scripture is what gives this book its hallmark.

"At 270 pages, the book is -- as the cover heading states -- 'A History of How the Pro-Life Movement has advanced the cause of the Roman Catholic Church.' This is no six week experience investigative journalism, rather the story from a man whose own experience in the fight against abortion has spanned three decades. . . .

"The message is for Protestant Christians anywhere in the world. Just because Roman Catholics share similar moralistic values, does not make them Christian. Alliances with the RCC are totally wrong in the sight of the Lord (Isaiah 30:1-3). Our strength is in the Lord alone (Isaiah 31:1). . . .

"More Than These is not just a good read, but a message from one of the few ministers prepared to stick his neck out today in courage that becomes a Man of God. Let this be a lesson to us all."
A Review by Andrew Hall, English Churchman

"Just a note of encouragement about your book. I'm just about finished with it and with every page you get more detail on what the end time harlot is up to. Keep up the good work. It's . . . a good alert to the true Church of God." 
Wisconsin

"Thanks for your great and informative book, More Than These. It truly opened my eyes to the truth." 
Nebraska

"I have had to biblically review my own activities in the anti-abortion movement, and where I have compromised the Gospel in my actions within it. What you have written helped me to confront those errors before our Savior and repent of them. By His grace, I will never again compromise His Truth for the sake of 'unity' with unbelievers." 
Missouri

"We received your book in the mail yesterday. I just finished it. It is very powerful! . . . Your book may prove to be the beginning of reform for Christians in this country. We will pray to that end. Thank you for your very well written book!" 
Wisconsin

"I must say a hearty Amen to what you have written! What you said needed to be said!" 
Wisconsin

"I finished your latest book and agree with you. It isn't a popular stand, but after all -- what was the Reformation all about?" 
Wisconsin

"I am an ex-Catholic . . . I am still shocked and deeply saddened, and sometimes very mad, at all these people getting sucked under the Catholic Church umbrella. . . . [T]his book has at least put some salve on my wounded heart." 
Ohio

"Thank you for being obedient to write this book. I pray that many will heed the admonition." 
Illinois

"I would like to thank you so much for writing your book More Than These. . . . The little group of Christians who meet here are so grateful to you all. Our eyes have been well and truly opened. Thank you again." 
England

"Yesterday I received your book and I couldn't stop until I read it through. The second [book] I posted through to my sister in Spain . . . Thank the Lord for your faithful ministry, your faithful web-site, your faithful books." 
Scotland
