​The name (or appellation) "evangelical Christian" designates those who are born again, that is to say born of the Spirit of God according to Romans 5:5 and 8:9.

 

With the help of the Holy Spirit, they believe, proclaim and practice the gospel (the good news of salvation in Jesus Christ) as presented and defined in the Bible.

 

The term "apostasy" means to leave the path on which one was engaged, never to return to it.

 

But is it possible that our spiritual communities, founded on the teaching of the Bible, can wander far from the Gospel to the point of neglecting it, redefining it, forgetting it and finally rejecting it?

 

Not only is this possible, but this tragedy has happened many times in the history of the Church. The second epistle to Timothy, as well as the second epistle of Peter and that of Jude speak of it clearly and in detail.

 

The movement called neo-evangelical was born in the middle of the twentieth century with the aim of rejuvenating the image of Christianity in order to make the Gospel credible and attractive to non-believers. None of the adherents to this approach intended to dilute or abandon the biblical message! However the spirit of accommodation to the world took them much further than they could imagine...

 

It is to the point that, nowadays, we are witnessing a rapid slide towards a reformulation of the Gospel and of the identity of the Christian which no longer resembles the message of the Lord and of the apostles. The booklet and brochure trace the history of the neo-evangelical movement in the United States, the United Kingdom and on the European continent. They reveal its face and its current direction. Through these documents, we propose an uncompromising return to "the faith which was transmitted to the saints once for all." (Jude 3)

 

Nothing can replace obedience to Christ.

 

Let us listen to the counsel of the Lord:"If you know these things, you are happy as long as you practice them.»   (John 3:17)
