The Devil Is In The Antitheses

Donald A. Carson, Prof. of New Testament
Trinity Evangelical Divinity School



On the Emerging Church movement:

So which shall we choose?

Experience or truth? The left wing of an airplane, or the right? Love or integrity? Study or service? Evangelism or discipleship? The front wheels of a car, or the rear? Subjective knowledge or objective knowledge? Faith or obedience?

Damn all false antithesis to hell, for they generate false gods, they perpetuate idols, they twist and distort our souls, they launch the church into violent pendulum swings whose oscillations succeed only in dividing brothers and sisters in Christ.

Donald Carson, Becoming Conversant with the Emerging Church, p. 234.
