Cultural Christianity is not, evidently, more effective in gaining disciples for Christ than Christian radicalism is -often fails to achieve its end because it does not go far enough or suspected of introducing an element that will weaken the movement -seems impossible to remove the offence of Christ and his cross even by accommodations and cultural Christians share in the general limitation all Christianity faces whether it fights or allies itself with the world.. -if evangelists of Christ of culture do not go far enough to meet the demands of men whose loyalty is primarily to the values of civilization, they go too far in the judgment of their fellow believers of other schools -sho a tendency to distort the figure of the New Testament Jesus. Take some fragment of the NT elaborate upon it, and reconstruct their own mythical figure of the Lord -it is always something that seems to agree with the interests or the needs of their time. -loyalty to contemporary culture has so far qualified the loyalty to Christ that he has been abandoned in favor of an idol called by his name. Suspect theology…Against culture see intrusion of worldly wisdom into the sphere of revelation, and of culture believe it to be irrational. Cultural Christians tend to see reason (rather than revelation) as high road to knowledge of God and salvation…Jesus is the great teacher of rational truth and goodnesss Revelation is the religious name for that process which is essentially the growth of reason in history As radicals can’t rid themselves of some dependence on reason, so these men cannot proceed in their reasoning without reliance on the purely given historical fact,
