Christianity And Liberalism by J. Gresham Machen
"Christianity and Liberalism" is a theological treatise that argues that liberal Christianity, which emerged in the early 20th century, is not a mere variation of Christianity but is, in fact, a completely different religion from traditional Christianity. The author critiques the liberal theological movement for its departure from orthodox Christian doctrine, particularly in its views of Scripture, the nature of Jesus Christ, and the fundamentals of salvation and grace. He asserts that the liberal approach undermines the very foundations of Christian faith by prioritizing humanistic and social values over biblical truth and divine revelation. The book calls for a return to what the author considers the true essence of Christianity, grounded in historical doctrinal positions and biblical authority.
