This is a prime example of the relativistic thinking which permeates our society. A comparison with God's Word is the true measure of unbiasedness as it is the standard of absolute truth - and there lies the hurdle. Few admit there is absolute truth, even fewer aknowledge it is found in the Bible, yet to actually compare it to one's own life and the actions of others seems to be the the most refused action of all.<br /><br />DerekAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03642880313597347232noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20213892.post-40245618193005421332015-11-24T08:09:06.435-08:002015-11-24T08:09:06.435-08:00Ken,

For men like White and Johnson, they have truly missed the mark. Fundamentalism started due to the rationalism of Modernism. It is that rationalism that has infiltrated evangelical and now fundamentalist circles. <br /><br />We see many more still deny a 6 day creation. (and the corollary issues of human sexuality) We see sin degraded by the arguments of situational ethics and the freedoms of individual liberty of conscience. Forget any such notion of Biblical standards, that is too legalistic for them. <br /><br />Outside of abortion, adultery, murder, and perhaps a few others, I never hear about many other "sins" in the Bible from most pastors. It is because leaders are unwilling to mention any other "sins" for the sake of not offending others or for avoiding be called a legalist or moralist. Relativism, situational ethics, and soul liberty almost obliterate in their minds anything else being designated as sin. They are smug about their own contrived holiness, separation, and spiritual maturity because of how they live their own narrative before God. <br /><br />This too, is how postmodernism has gotten into and will make further headway into evangelical and more fundamentalist churches. Today's spiritual leaders have misused orthodoxy and the analogy of faith to suit their own common ends. I find the practice nauseating at best. <br />Ken Lengelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14808011240895370627noreply@blogger.com
