What is Liberalism? Liberalism is the attempt to
discredit the reliability of the New Testament and the portrait of Jesus
we find in the Bible. It is an attempt to affirm that the virgin birth,
miracles and resurrection of Jesus are myths invented by the early church.
Liberalism wants to get rid of the supernatural.
Liberalism is not a new
concept. Because it is a real issue, it is important that we
thoughtfully consider this view to prepare for the arguments
presented.
Claims of Liberalism: The historical Jesus was not the
Jesus in the gospel books.
Jesus did not make the claims recorded in the gospels.
The gospel was invented during the first 30 years of the church.
Recommendation of
Liberalism: Demytholize the gospel books.
We have studied the evidence for the
reliability of the New Testament.
