An Expositional Commentary ACTS

Abstract

In the last few years I have come across a number of disturbing books that ring a loud alarm for the church establishment known as evangelicalism. Evangel means "good news," or "the gospel," and the evangelical churches are those that assume they know the gospel and are defending it in a day when liberal churches are not. The books I am referring to say that this is not so, that evangelicals are actually in the process of abandoning the gospel along with many other theological convictions on which the church has been built. One outstanding book is David F. Wells's No Place for Truth: Or Whatever Happened to Evangelical Theology? Michael Scott Horton edited Power Religion: The Selling Out of the Evangelical Church.
