Excerpt from The Church of to-Day: A Plea The essentials of Christianity have not been out grown, but they ought to be detached from many crude notions that have long obscured them or di verted attention from them. The present demand is not so much for creed revision as for creed subordination. All intelligent followers of Jesus are coming to understand that the religious life is larger than any doctrinal system, and While a Con fession of F aith may be serviceable to many per sons, nevertheless practical Christians have learned to find its true value in what it does to enlarge our common religious life, rather than in What it ao complishes by maintaining a mere uniformity of opinion. The warfare of science and theology is now seen in a new light. It is not a deadly combat in which one or the other must be defeated or destroyed. It is a constant and growing readjustment, with mod ifications on both sides, by which religion gains a surer footing and a Wider horizon, while science becomes an associate with piety in a diviner art of life. Religion has ceased to fear science, and sci ence has ceased to hate religion; each has changed its attitude toward the other, and both recognize that they are coordinate agents whose essential purpose is the same: to serve man and glorify God.

What does the church need to hear today? As many have said, the church must always be reforming. It must continually move closer to a truer, more faithful expression of the gospel. The risen Christ’s powerful letters to the seven churches in Revelation are a guide to just that. Based on John MacArthur’s exposition of these letters, Christ’s Call to Reform the Church is a plea to the modern church to heed these divine warnings, to reform before it succumbs to the kinds of compromise and error that invite God’s judgment. Christ’s Call to Reform the Church admonishes the church today to learn from the mistakes God’s people have made in the past, rather than commit them again. The Word of God has many benefits, one of which is that it reveals our blind spots. That's what this book does—it shines a light on problems we didn't know we had. May it be embraced by Christians everywhere, spurring them toward the God-honoring, grace-driven work of continued reformation.
