In 1961, a man by the name of A. W. Tozer published a book in which he endeavored to warn the church in America that it was headed in a dangerous direction. It wasn’t liberalism that concerned him; not formally. It was something much more basic.
It is my opinion that the Christian conception of God current in these middle years of the twentieth century is so decadent as to be utterly beneath the dignity of the Most High God and actually to constitute for professed believers something amounting to a moral calamity. (Tozer, 1978, p. 10)
Shortly before his death in 2001, James Montgomery Boice issued a similar warning:
For years I have spoken about what I consider to be the worldliness of the liberal churches… what has hit me like a thunderbolt in recent years is that what I had been saying about the liberal churches at the end of the 1960s and in the 1970s now needs to be said about the evangelical churches as well. ¶ Well over a decade ago, Professor Martin Marty, always a shrewd observer of the American church, said in a magazine interview that, in his judgment, evangelicals would be ‘the most worldly people in America’ by the end of the century. Marty’s observations are not always right, in my opinion, but in this case he was on target. (Boice, 2001, p. 7)
