Fundamentalism & Evangelicalism
Denny Burk

“The Nashville Statement is not a culture-war document. It is a church document. It stakes out no public policy positions. It advocates for no particular piece of legislation or political program. Rather, it was drafted by churchmen from a variety of evangelical traditions who aim to catechize God’s people about their place in the true story of the world… .

And fundamental to that storyline is our “personal and physical design as male and female.” The Bible begins in Genesis with a marriage and ends in Revelation with a marriage, and that is why the nature of marriage is fundamental to our story as well.”

Maybe, just maybe, a new kind of Christianity is being birthed before our eyes, and those of us who have been so hurt by those bearing Jesus’ name might once again find hope, healing and a deep sense of family as we step into our rightful place in the Church.

Certainly a new kind of Christianity - a false one. It’s interesting that no Scriptiure was included in his article.

This issue is the dividing line in our contemporary culture. Liberalism is alive and well, and Machen was right. Those advocating for a “progressive Christianity” which “affirms’ unrepentant homosexuality, transgender identity and denies the need to mortify the sins of the flesh is not Christianity It’s aniother religion entirely, even if it does retain some of the same vocabulary.
