For those who really want to see the root from which springs this current infestation of man-centered infomercial Christianity in new evangelicalism and the neo-liberal cult of the Emergent Church this article exposes it. Dr. R.C. Sproul is right on target when he says:

I’ve often wondered if Luther were alive today and came to our culture and looked, not at the liberal church community, but at evangelical churches, what would he have to say? Of course I can’t answer that question with any kind of definitive authority, but my guess is this: If Martin Luther lived today and picked up his pen to write, the book he would write in our time would be entitled The Pelagian Captivity of the Evangelical Church.
