From St. Augustine to Luther to Bultman and the Jesus Seminar, the church has throughout the ages consistently focused on Christianity as a set of declarations of truth which must be tested, but tested only to the satisfaction of personal need, not to objective rational and biblical standards of truth testing. This has caused the church to be filled with functional unbeleivers, who believe that having faith in a true spiriutal viewpoint is more importnant than having faith in the truth of God-given evidences for His existence and His Son's messiahship. In a completely unique take on the subject of Christian faith, Bruce K. Silverthorne fires a shot across the bow of a weak church which may correctly declare that justification is by faith, but never asks how faith is to be justified. (PRWeb Nov 17, 2004)
