Prove that’s a “conservative Presbyterian website” and explain what is being argued or we’ll have to conclude nothing is as you say...again.
What’s being argued in your Presbyterian website is clear —> READ it — the pdf points out the various heresies that the Orthodox Presbyterians find in the OPC.
For years, the neo-liberals andIn fact, this
their enablers have continually
pleaded for brotherly
love, understanding, and toleration,
while gaining evergreater
control. Today, neoliberals
and their enablers
clearly hold the upper hand.
Satan has won his war of attrition
against the one true
Gospel in the OPC (113).
The OPC long ago ceased to
proclaim the one true Gospel
to the exclusion of all false
gospels (115).
Former Orthodox Presbyterian Church (OPC) ruling elder Paul M. Elliott says in this report
" If you are still in the Orthodox
Presbyterian Church
whether you are a minister, elder,
deacon, or general member
and you are still loyal to
the unique authority of Gods
Word, and to the one true Gospel
the Bible proclaims, then
it is time for you to come out
from among them, and be
separate (2 Corinthians 6:17)
(118, 119).
The Orthodox Presbyterian
Church has abandoned the
marks of a true church of
Jesus Christ (118).
This book ought to be read by every member of the OPC, as well as by those in the Reformed community who still harbor the illusion that the OPC is a bulwark of orthodoxy.
The book is required reading also for all those in ecumenical relation with the OPC, thus making themselves responsible for the OPCs sins.
Christianity and Neo-Liberalism
The Spiritual Crisis in the Orthodox Presbyterian Church and Beyond
by
Paul M. Elliott
The Trinity Foundation
This is a blockbuster of a book. One can only pray that its impact will, in Gods providence, live up to its potential. Not only is it well written, well researched, and well documented, but the author has a real sense of history, of church history that is. Back in the 1920s, at the height of the fundamentalist-modernist controversy in the PCUSA, J. Gresham Machen, the leader of the conservatives wrote a book entitled, Christianity and Liberalism. In it he set forth and contrasted the theological beliefs of historic Christianity and of the liberals in the PCUSA. He convincingly argued the premise that liberals were not Christians and that modernism was another religion. Paul Elliott has taken that as his model and titled his book accordingly.
The authors thesis is that the Orthodox Presbyterian Church (OPC) is today exactly where the PCUSA was back then.
In chapter 2, The Marks of Neo-Liberalism the author compares the tenets of the old
liberalism, (frequently as set forth by Machen, the founder of the OPC) with those of the current neo-liberals in the OPC. The comparison is enlightening and somewhat shocking.
Has the OPC really returned to its vomit?
Elliott goes on in chapter 4, Embracing the Principles of the Auburn Affirmation, to buttress his case.
Systematically he analyses the principles of the infamous Affirmation, the manifesto of the theological liberals in the old PCUSA, and demonstrates that the neo-liberals in the OPC are espousing identical principles. Again his documentation is thorough and the results are convincing.
Progressively he is building a damning indictment of the true state of the OPC.
