Lindsay John Kennedy (yasdnil) | 13 comments Hello, this book is missing a product description. Could the below please be added:

Evangelicals are choosing heresy

Evangelicals fight for a place at the table, but we are in danger of losing our house. The church has become consumed by politics—political priorities and allegiances. Christian brothers and sisters have become opponents. We are no longer united by shared faith, but divided by shared heresy.

When Politics Becomes Heresy is Tim Perry’s loving rebuke and call to repentance. Evangelicals are embracing the logic of ancient heresies. We are using the gospel for power (Simony), integrating our faith with worldliness (Gnosticism), exchanging our heavenly Savior for a human helper (Arianism), transforming our mission into social action (Pelagianism), and demonizing other believers (Donatism).

The solution is not to switch sides or carve out a third way. Rather, the proper response to unbelief is repentance. We must stop, turn around, and return to God’s gracious throne.
