Man's relationship to God in creation was based on works. What Adam failed to achieve, Christ, the second Adam, succeeded in achieving. Ultimately the only way one can be justified is by works. (R.C.Sproul) Works! Works! A man gets to heaven by works? I would as soon think of climbing to the moon on a rope of sand! (George Whitefield) With the wolves you cannot be too severe. With the weak sheep you cannot be too gentle.” (Martin Luther on false teachers)

Review of Christless Christianity

There's a great preview/review of
Dr. Michael Horton's new book,
Christless Christianity,
at Tim Challies'
Discerning Reader.

Tim Challies writes: In Christless Christianity: The Alternative Gospel of the American Church Horton laments the 'silliness' of many Westerners' approach to the gospel. Horton is sounding alarm bells reminiscent of Francis Schaeffer's warnings of 'accommodation' and C.S. Lewis' caution against 'weightlessness.'
