1 | the fear of the Lord | OT general | BradK | 208987 | ||
Hi John, I quite agree... and then some! Phillip Johnson in his (aptly-titled) article, "A Wolf In Sheep's Clothing" says this, "It is ironic that Charles Grandison Finney has become a poster boy for so many modern evangelicals. His theology was far from evangelical. As a Christian leader, he was hardly the model of humility or spirituality. Even Finney's autobiography paints a questionable character. In his own retelling of his life's story, Finney comes across as stubborn, arrogant—and sometimes even a bit devious." Further, even a cursory reading of Finney's so-called 'Systematic Theology" should make one shudder and run! He was a heretic- plain and simple. The devastation he left still lingers! Speaking the Truth in Love, BradK |

Thanks brother BradK I was only just introduced to him (Finney) last evening at the request of Bro. Bob's post. I didn't like much of what I read, so I did some further investigating. I liked what else I found even less. :-( The heart of fallen man loves pragmatism, we see things getting done, and in our impatience are drawn to this approach, even in our religion, and evangelism, not considering waiting for God to do things in His time. And that's just scratching the surface of the problem[s] with pragmatism. :-( Thanks again for your response brother BadK God bless John |
