Brian McLaren Denies Biblical Christianity in His New Book

Brian McLaren denies historic Biblical Christianity, makes a Jesus in his own image, and hopes to get others to worship this "Jesus" too. See the review by Tim Challies of McLaren's new book Everything Must Change here. There are some very disturbing quotes from McLaren's book. If there is any young person (under 30) reading this blog, please read Christianity and Liberalism by J. Gresham Machen, written in the 1920s, before you read any new books on the Christian market. This will give you discernment to see what is happening again. Church history repeats itself.
