The trend of modern theology—if theology it can be called—is ever toward the deification of the creature rather than the glorification of the Creator, and the leaven of present-day Rationalism is rapidly permeating the whole of Christendom. The malevolent effects of Darwinianism are more far reaching than most are aware. Many of those among our religious leaders who are still regarded as orthodox would, we fear, be found to be very heterodox if they were weighed in the balances of the Sanctuary. Even those who are clear, intellectually, upon other truth, are rarely sound in doctrine. Few, very few, today, really believe in the complete ruin and total depravity of man. Those who speak of man’s “free will,” and insist upon his inherent power to either accept or reject the Savior, do but voice their ignorance of the real condition of Adam’s fallen children. And if there are few who believe that, so far as he is concerned, the condition of the sinner is entirely hopeless, there are fewer still who really believe in the absolute Sovereignty of God.

Good to hear from you. Glad you are well.
Thanks for the encouragement.

Boy, O Pink nailed the condition of today’s pulpits down to a tee. If he could only see what has happened in American Evangelivalism since he penned this.
Amen.
Things to continue to spiral down, but not out of control of our sovereign Lord God.
Thanks for taking time to read and comment on the the Pink quotation.
Soli Deo Gloria!

Very good – and sadly, very true!
