Social Progressives seem to have no conception of the power of this kind of religious belief. As a Christian, I keep asking myself what the Church must become in the face of this spiritual challenge. I am convinced that the watered down version of Christianity that has swept mainline denominations is powerless to present the gospel in any meaningful way in the face of the rise of radical Islam. For me, the phenomenal rise of charismatic Christianity on a global scale over the last one hundred years is God's answer. Without radical New Testament Christianity, we are powerless against this spiritual onslaught. Charismatic Christianity understands the reality of spiritual evil that operates on a higher level than human evil. Social Progressive religious agendas relegate the idea of satan and the demonic to the superstitious past. But without a biblical understanding of evil, and the victory of Christ over it, I do not see a way forward in the 21st Century.Fr Charleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00115198449693925340noreply@blogger.com
