The following is a list of questions about the New Apostolic Reformation, the NAR, that I generated while doing research through various books. They are not “gotcha” questions. But, they are probing questions worth answering. Whether or not any NAR adherents answer them is to be seen. if you have any additional questions that you would like on this list, please send them to [email protected]. I’ll be adding to this list periodically.
