Check out this book: Evangelicalism Divided, Ian H. Murray

​Written some 16 years ago, this book by Ian Murray is just as relevant today as when it was first published. It tells the sad story of how, in reacting to the narrowness of fundamentalism, evangelicals sought intellectual respectability and acceptance within their denominations at the price of doctrinal compromise. This transpired both in the USA and UK with such organisations and movements as Fuller Theological Seminary, the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association, the National Evangelical Anglican Congress and Evangelicals and Catholics Together. Key to this compromise was the willingness to accept as Christian brethren all who made a Christian profession, regardless of glaring doctrinal errors that they held. The result has been that, rather than further the evangelical cause, evangelicalism has declined in power and influence. The great need of the time is faithfulness to the Word of God and the anointing of the Holy Spirit. The book ends on a happy note by reminding us that whatever the conflict and discord that God's people experience in this world, Christ is preparing His heavenly Church for the day when it will be unveiled as perfect and complete, without spot or blemish, in all its glory as His bride.
