""This view is so commonplace that it seems odd to hear it challenged. Nevertheless, the church fathers, Protestant Reformers, and orthodox theologians have always directed us with the Scriptures, outside of ourselves, where God has chosen to meet with and to reconcile strangers"

Michael Horton (The White Horse Inn) very frequently correctly diagnosis the sickness, but I would like to hear more of the *treatment. For example, O.k. we have a problem, but now what do we do? How is the Reformed faith going to bring us back to true Biblical teaching? This is the question that they should be asking, but we don't here it from them. Why not? It needs to be challenge. I would preferred that Michale Horton, in a brotherly manner, directly confront Chuck Smith or Joel Osteen personally (Paul did it to Peter and we are commanded from Scriptures). Horton can write his books targetting these folks, but if they never come across them, then, I don not think it makes a difference to them.

*The treatment, of course is the Good News understood correctly from the Scriptures.
