But not anymore, else he would never have converted to contemporary Orthodoxy, which, like Catholicism, makes evolution a test-case to prove one is no longer Protestant.
First, evangelicals need to understand Catholicism and especially Orthodoxy much better than most of us currently do. It is safe to say that most evangelicals know little about the Eastern Orthodox tradition and are ill-equipped to say anything substantive about the subject. Fortunately, some good evangelical resources on Orthodoxy are available, but more is needed and more teaching generally in evangelical churches and schools is especially needed.[5]
Second, evangelicals need to do a better job explaining and defending the evangelical Protestant view of Scripture and authority. All too often the slogan sola scriptura is understood superficially to mean a naïve biblicism or to denigrate the role of the church as the custodian of God’s revelation to the world. For a classic statement with biblical proof texts of the Protestant evangelical view of Scripture, see (for example) the first chapter of the Westminster Confession of Faith. And how many more evangelicals need to be caught in the vise grip of the objection “But where does Scripture teach sola scriptura?” before we learn how to answer it effectively? I won’t present a fully-developed answer here, but the scriptural case for sola scriptura can be distilled down to the following simple deductive argument (this is a summary of the argument I presented in my debate with Orthodox theologian Laurent Cleenewerck in 2013):....
