Not long ago, I came across a list of ten principles set forth by proponents of progressive Christianity. They are, in effect, a new Ten Commandments. Whatās striking is that they are far less about God revealing his desires and far more about man expressing his ownāless Moses, more Oprah.
Yet each of these ācommandmentsā is partially true. Indeed, that is what makes this list, and progressive Christianity as a whole, so challenging. Half-truths can sound quite appealing until you recognize their foundations and implications. In this booklet, I diagnose and critique each of these tenets and offer a brief biblical and theological response.
Liberal Christianity never really goes away. If the church is going to hold fast to āthe faith that was once for all delivered to the saintsā (Jude 3), we must, in every era, be able to distinguish the true faith from the false.

āItās amazing just how many of these new āTen Commandmentsā are taken for granted in our culture and also roll easily off the tongue in Christian circles. As a highly gifted surgeon, Michael Kruger refuses to offer a light diagnosis or superficial cures. This is a timely and convicting analysis that we all need to hear.ā
āĀ Michael Horton, Westminster Seminary CaliforniaāI recognize these Ten Commandments of Progressive Christianity from growing up in the Protestant mainline and from many churches in my community today. Thereās nothing new in their message, even as such churches portray themselves as our future. Michael Kruger helps us see the internal inconsistencies of their teaching as they decry certainty with, well, certainty. We must be equipped to see why such attempts to revise Christianity will never turn the world upside down, as did the apostles with the good news that Jesus Christ is Lord.ā
āĀ Collin Hansen, editorial director, The Gospel Coalition; author ofĀ Blind Spots: Becoming a Courageous, Compassionate,Ā and Commissioned ChurchāDonāt let the brevity of this book fool you. Mike Kruger has written a trenchant critique of the intellectual bankruptcy and theological deviancy of progressive Christianity. Churches, pastors, students, youth groups, Christian schools, and Christian colleges would do well to appropriate the wisdom in this short, but devastating, little book.āāĀ Kevin DeYoung,Ā Senior Pastor, Christ Covenant Church (Matthews, NC); Assistant Professor of Systematic Theology, Reformed Theological Seminary, Charlotte
A useful work and very readable due to its brevity and clarity. Perhaps a wider ranger of referents would strengthen its significance as these argument are widespread and corrode faith in the Gospel, the Word and a Christian worldview. Well done.
