***The Good News is no longer good news, it is okay news.***
And the reason for that is simple. The law is no longer the law. We now have "principles" and "techniques" or even "steps," all of which decrease the need for Good News.
It's all Pelagian heresy. Like I said earlier, Evangelicals today can't sniff out heresy, even when it is in a top ten Christian, I mean Pelagian self-help book.

Like I said earlier, Evangelicals today can't sniff out heresy That's because IMO many (most?) Evangelicals are formally anti-creedal. They don't accept/bow/submit to any of the historic confessions or creeds of the church (Apostles', Athanasian, Westminister, Heidelberg, etc). Thus, they don't have an accepted, documented standard upon which to judge heresy by, let alone define what it is.
But it's safe to assume that if it's a top-ten seller at Family Christian or Lifeway Bookstores, it can't be heresy.
