The Disciple’s Notebook Ch. 6 “The Gospel Today”
Cross Radio Episode 43 | TDN Chapter 6: The Gospel Today
This may sound like a sweeping declaration, but this is true: Every Church Leadership, Discipleship Organizations and Believers in General should not miss this episode! The Gospel is at stake and everyone should really be serious in, borrowing from Michael Horton’s words, getting the gospel right and getting it out! With these set of questions, we challenge all disciples worldwide to really hold on, hold fast and hold firm to the very message that makes Christianity Christianity.
Before Spurgeon died, he fought what we now know as “The Downgrade Controversy”, where he, with all might, fought a lonesome battle against the secularization of those who claim as God’s bride, and so the distortion of the gospel. He writes -
“No lover of the gospel can conceal from himself the fact that the days are evil. We are willing to make a large discount from our apprehensions on the score of natural timidity, the caution of age, and the weakness produced by pain; but yet our solemn conviction is that things are much worse in many churches than they seem to be, and are rapidly tending downward. Read those newspapers which represent the Broad School of Dissent, and ask yourself, How much farther could they go? What doctrine remains to be abandoned? What other truth to be the object of contempt? A new religion has been initiated, which is no more Christianity than chalk is cheese; and this religion, being destitute of moral honesty, palms itself off as the old faith with slight improvements, and on this plea usurps pulpits which were erected for gospel preaching. The Atonement is scouted, the inspiration of Scripture is derided, the Holy Spirit is degraded into an influence, the punishment of sin is turned into fiction, and the resurrection into a myth, and yet these enemies of our faith expect us to call them brethren, and maintain a confederacy with them!” (Charles Spurgeon, 1887).
