Christianity and Liberalism Note

This is from a review I read on this book. How relevant for us today?

The Christian religion which is meant is certainly not the religion of the modern liberal Church, but a message of divine grace, almost forgotten now, as it was in the middle ages, but destined to burst forth once more in God’s good time, in a new Reformation, and bring light and freedom to mankind. What that message is can be made clear, as is the case with all definition, only by way of exclusion, by way of contrast. In setting forth the current liberalism, now almost dominant in the Church, over against Christianity, we are animated, therefore, by no merely negative or polemic purpose; on the contrary, by showing what Christianity is not we hope to be able to show what Christianity is, in order that men may be led to turn from the weak and beggarly elements and have recourse again to the grace of God. --Tim Challies


We need to be about the true faith, which is of divine grace and how it fits into God's great redemption plan. Christians need to be about showing what Christianity is not in order to lead people to understand God's wonderful and matchless grace.
