Against Liberal Theology: Putting the Brakes on Progressive Christianity

4.40 out of 5 stars

Description

Against Liberal Theology is a call to stand for something, to stand for the historic Christian faith and for the authority of Scripture. It's a call to rediscover the biblical Jesus, not the culturally constructed Jesus. In the midst of a heated theological landscape, liberal Christian theology has emerged as a dominant force, sparking intense debate within churches and seminaries. But what lies at the heart of this theological movement, and why does it inspire such passion and controversy? What are its core beliefs regarding truth, Scripture, and Jesus Christ, and where does it ultimately lead? Often misunderstood and mislabeled, liberal theology is frequently conflated with a loose collection of ideologies within the Christian faith, attracting well-intentioned Christians who prioritize social justice. It has also been unfairly attributed to churches and denominations that reject its ideology. Against Liberal Theology offers a clear-eyed analysis of this complex movement, providing a concise and accessible exploration of its defining characteristics, historical development, and implications for everyday Christian life. Written in a direct and engaging style, this book distinguishes liberal theology from moderate or progressive Christian thought, examines the arguments of influential liberal theologians, and issues a timely warning about the dangers of a theology that prioritizes cultural relevance over biblical fidelity. A call to reclaim the authority of Scripture and the biblical Jesus, Against Liberal Theology is a vital resource for Christians of all persuasions, urging them to stand for the historic Christian faith in a world where truth is increasingly relative.
