In the circles I tend to move in, being called a ‘liberal’ is a bit of an insult – it means that you don’t take the faith seriously etc etc. Now I don’t think that’s true, but I was just wondering – in certain circles, is being called an ‘open evangelical’ now taking on the same sense? That is, are ‘open evangelicals’ the new ‘liberals’? I’m musing on this since finding this site<\/a> last night, especially looking at this page<\/a>.<\/p>\n

BTW I’ve read one John MacArthur book – Ashamed of the Gospel – and I thought it was rather good. I suspect I’ve got quite a bit of affinity with (some bits of) the conservative evangelicalism that site represents, though some of it I see as barbaric and a long way from the <\/span>Way.
