Pointing to the many contradictions between the Bible and the practice of the church, Jacques Ellul asserts in this provocative and stimulating book that what we today call Christianity is actually far removed from the revelation of God.
He wrote more than forty books, including \'The Technological Society\', \'The Humiliation of the Word\', and \'Technological Bluff\'..
Gill in Fides et Historia (from a review of the French edition) Jacques Ellul (1912-1994), a French sociologist and lay theologian, was Professor Emeritus of Law and of the History and Sociology of Institutions at the University of Bordeaux.
It stands as a formidable contribution to our contemporary quest for ways of thought and life that are faithful to Jesus Christ...."" --David W. ""Christianity,"" writes Ellul, ""never carries the day decisively against Christ."" ""Jacques Ellul\'s fortieth book is certain to be regarded as one of his most important and provocative works--and this from an author who specializes in provocation of both the world and the church ""The Subversion of Christianity provides a sober, challenging examination of many misguided appropriations of the world into the Church.
For, in spite of all that has been done to subvert the message of God, the Holy Spirit continues to move in the world.
Ultimately, however, Ellul remains hopeful.
The heart of the problem, he says, is that we have not accepted the fact that Christianity is a scandal; we attempt to make it acceptable and easy--and thus pervert its true message.
Ellul develops several areas in which this perversion is most obvious, including the church\'s emphasis on moralism and its teaching in the political sphere.
The church also perverted the gospel message, for instead of simply doing away with pagan practice and belief, it reconstituted the sacred, set up its own religious forms, and thus resacralized the world.
Successive generations have reinterpreted Scripture and modeled it after their own cultures, thus moving society further from the truth of the original gospel.
