Doctrine
Stephen Nichols

As a Christian, are you concerned with doctrine, or is Christianity something that should just be lived out? The liberal theologians of J. Gresham Machen’s day denied the fundamental doctrinal content of the Christian faith and denied the very need for doctrine. In this lesson, Dr. Nichols launches into a guided tour through the chapters and doctrines of Christianity and Liberalism, which begins with a call to recognize the weight that the Bible places on correct doctrine.
