The Answer to False Gospels

September 28th, 2004  |  Published in Religion  |  1 Comment

“But the church—his church—for many years now has been regaled, both in its seminary classrooms and from multitudes of its pulpits, with subbiblical portrayals of what the true gospel of God is. I refer to the Pelagian, semi-Pelagian, semi-semi-Pelagian, Arminian, apostate, and name-it-claim-it ‘gospels’ which abound on every hand. To al these false ‘gospels’ the Reformed faith is the only antidote.”
-Robert Reymond, A New Systematic Theology of the Christian Faith, xx-xxi

    Warfield also uses the term “semi-semi-Pelagian”:

    Into the place of Pelagianism there stepped at once Semi-pelagianism. And when the controversy with Semi-pelagianism had been fought and won, into the place of Semi-pelagianism there stepped that semi-semi-pelagianism which the Council of Orange betrayed the Church into, the genius of an Aquinas systematised for her, and the Council of Trent finally fastened with rivets of iron upon that portion of the church which obeyed it.
