This book documents the history and spread ofNew Evangelicalism since the 1950s and describes theprinciples of New Evangelicalism in a very practical manner so that church members can understand it. These principles include the following : New Evangelicalism is characterized by a repudiation of separation, by a love for positivism, by a judge-not philosophy, by a dislike of doctrinal controversy, by exalting love and unity above doctrine, by a desire for intellectual respectability, by pride of scholarship, by an attitude of anti-fundamentalism, by the division of biblical truth into categories of important and not important, by a general mood of softness and tolerance, of a desire for a less strict Christianity, and of a weariness with theological fighting. The book also describes the apostate fruit of New Evangelicalism, which is admitted even by key Evangelical leaders.(Publisher - back cover)
