And what’s wrong with Finney? He was one of the true greats. Many good things happened in our area because of Finney.

Finney was an out-and-out, unabashed Pelagian and said so, a position the church formally declared heresy. He felt man saved himself and the post-modern church you see today can be traced back to much of Finney's work. His was a social gospel-that's it. You may think Finney was great. Many do. Personally, I do not.
