Fundamentalism, Christian Schooling, and the Antithesis

Thanks to Amy for this great link. Here’s a snippet to entice you to read the whole thing. The part that really got me is in bold.

Frankly, because of the big idea of antithesis, I am more comfortable with the fundamentalists than I am with the broad evangelicals. More and more, broad evangelicals do not get the idea of antithesis, and for this reason even when they have a pretty good formal doctrinal statement, they seldom really stand up for it. In Psalm 1 terms, the broad evangelicals are to willing to “walk in the counsel of the ungodly”. Broad evangelicals want to be successful; fundamentalists want to be faithful.




Don’t you love it when someone puts into words what you’ve been thinking and you didn’t quite know how to express it?
