Is this the Gospel? (Overview)

In an earlier post I responded to the Together for the Gospel statement, which I do not think represents any real “togetherness,” nor do I think it represents the gospel. Now I want to be clear that I am not suggesting that my side, whatever that may be, needs to exclude the writers of such statements. At the same time I do not want to minimize my concern over the approach to Christianity that this statement represents.

In this entry I want to simply look through the 18 articles and point out where it is that I disagree. In later posts I’ll deal with individual elements. I will only use brief quotes, but you can get the full context of each statement from the link above.

The Opening

We are brothers in Christ united in one great cause
