In "Christianity and Liberalism," J. Gresham Machen delivers a compelling and timeless argument for the foundational truths of orthodox Christianity, setting it in stark contrast to the shifting sands of liberal theology. With scholarly rigor and unwavering faith, Machen dissects the core tenets that distinguish genuine Christian belief from its liberal counterpart. His exploration delves deep into pivotal themes such as the nature of God and humanity, the authority of the Bible, the person and work of Christ, the way of salvation, and the essence of the church. This seminal work, first published in the early 20th century, remains a beacon of clarity and conviction in the ongoing dialogue between faith and culture. Machen's writing is not merely an academic exercise; it is a passionate plea for the church to anchor itself in the unchanging truths of the Bible. He argues that liberalism and Christianity are, at their heart, two fundamentally different religions, with divergent doctrines on God, man's redemption, and the role of the church in the world. Through precise argumentation and a clear presentation of the gospel, "Christianity and Liberalism" challenges believers to examine the foundations of their faith. Today, as when it was first published, Machen's work continues to be a crucial call to discernment and a steadfast commitment to the historic Christian faith in the face of modern challenges.

Place the lives of children in their formative years, despite the convictions of their parents, under the intimate control of experts appointed by the state, force them to attend schools where the higher aspirations of humanity are crushed out, and where the mind is filled with the materialism of the day, and it is difficult to see how even the remnants of liberty can subsist.
— J. Gresham Machen, Christianity and Liberalism
