Christianity and Liberalism

By: J. Gresham Machen

Narrated by: Ray Porter

Machen's classic defense of orthodox Christianity established the importance of scriptural doctrine and contrasts the teachings of liberalism and orthodoxy on God and man, the Bible, Christ, salvation, and the church. Though originally published nearly seventy years ago, the book maintains its relevance today. It was named one of the top 100 books of the millennium by World magazine and one of the top 100 books of the century by Christianity Today.

Fantastic and still relevant after all these years

While I know nothing is new under the sun it's still interesting to read authors from a former eta and see how they were dealing with some of the same issues in similar ways. This book is a must read for anyone struggling with the creeping liberal tendencies in the Christian faith. Specifically it will help challenge those tendencies in yourself and hopefully give you better answers. It's just a scratching of the surface but Machen had done a good job of shining light into some of the dark crevasses where man-centers pet theologies like to hide.

Prescient

This is an amazing identification and call to respond to the struggle that has hijacked the church. Dr Machen’s call to action, from a Century ago, is still needed.
Worth the read/listen.

Important!

Points out how alternative messages to Christ's own message have crept into the modern church. We are dealing with the consequences now of not heeding this warning when book was written!

Clear and full of candor

One of the fascinating things reading this book are his cultural critiques. So much has changed and nothing has changed all at the same time. 😂

A must read for everyone in search of truth.

This book brings clarity to the issues of today’s problems. What is the truth and how can a person find and know they are hearing the truth? This book identifies what truth is and how to discern the truth from the lies. God said the truth will set you free.
