Sobre este título
For centuries, believers have assumed that the teachings of the Reformers faithfully restored the message of the Bible. Yet when we examine the writings of the earliest Christians—the disciples of the apostles and the generations immediately after them—a very different picture emerges.
The Deformation invites listeners to take a fresh and honest look at several foundational teachings of the Reformation—such as total depravity, penal substitutionary atonement, the meaning of “works of the law,” the role of free will, and the interpretation of the Sermon on the Mount. Through careful examination of Scripture and consistent reference to early Christian thought, Chris White demonstrates that many of these doctrines were not a recovery of ancient Christianity, but a significant departure from it.
This book is not an attempt to offer new doctrines, nor is it a rejection of church history. Instead, it is a call to evaluate familiar theological ideas in the clear light of the Bible—and to compare them, when appropriate, with the beliefs of the first Christians, whose voices are often forgotten in modern debate.
Whether you are a pastor, student, or thoughtful believer wrestling with questions about salvation, grace, and the teachings of Jesus, The Deformation provides clarity, challenge, and a renewed appreciation for the depth and coherence of the earliest Christian faith.
